Noncombustible Mg-8Al-2Ca rods were processed by RD-ECAP. The magnesium alloy rod had Mg matrix and Al2Ca second phase. Grains with about 20 μm in diameter were observed in the matrix of the raw materials. The grains in matrix had no anisotropy. On the other hand, positions of second phase particles had anisotropy and the second phase particles formed lines. The samples processed by RD-ECAP had no crack and the samples had 20mm diameter. Grains in matrix of the 4 pass RD-ECAP sample had no anisotropy and the grains had under about 5 μm in diameter. The second phase particles had round shapes and were uniformly distributed as compared with the raw material rod. Therefore, the RD-ECAP is useful for forming noncombustible Mg-8Al-2Ca alloy with fine-grains.

By the severe plastic deformation, the equal channel angular pressing method (ECAP) has been used for producing metal materials with the ultra-fine grain size and specific mechanical properties, in particular high yield strength. Analytical approaches have also been studied by few researchers. However, none of the previous analyses have taken into account the strain hardening of the material by considering the microstructure evolution. In this paper, the deformation behavior and the strain harden of aluminum during equal channel angular pressing was calculated on the basis of a dislocation evolution model. Then simulated stress, strain and strain distribution and strain hardening were analyzed. The strain is seen to rapidly increase when the material passes the shear area. This makes a maximum value of stress. And for the congregation of dislocation density, the maximal value of strain increase with the process continuing.

The commercially pure titanium cylindrical samples with a diameter of 11.5mm and a length of 24mm were processed by a new severe plastic deformation process, called the rotary-die equal channel angular pressing (RD-ECAP), under the condition of 773K, 2.4mm/s punch. By the RD-ECAP, ECAP processes of 1-4 passes were possible without sample removal and the temperature of cp-titanium could be simply controlled. After the RD-ECAP process, the cp-titanium samples had no crack. Fine-grained microstructures were observed in the sample on Y plane. Therefore the samples processed by RD-ECAP were expected to have high mechanical strength.

Ultrafine grained and nanostructured materials have drawn significant attention due to their unusual mechanical behavior. The purpose of this research was to study the mechanical properties and microstructural evolution of nanocrystalline copper obtained through a bottom-up procedure of nanoparticle consolidation by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). ECAP was approved to be a proper approach to produce comparatively big nanocrystalline consolidates including acceptable mechanical properties. The effects of ECAP pass numbers on consolidation achievement were also assessed. The quite large strains observed in the samples were associated with the bimodal distribution condition of grain sizes. The present work reveals that ECAP consolidation of nanoparticles presents a novel opportunity to investigate the mechanical response of nanostructured metals and alloys moreover it gives a chance to the production of unique kinds of bulk materials for useful purposes.
