摘要
An aged Al-5Zn-1.6Mg alloy with fine eta' precipitates was grain refined to similar to 100 nm grain size by means of confined channel die pressing. Microstructure observations and mechanical tests were carried out to characterize the materials before and after various degrees of severe plastic deformation. Deformation processing enhanced the strength of the alloy, but limited its work hardenability. An analysis of deformation mechanisms revealed that plasticity proceeded by dislocation slip through ultrafine-grained cellular and subgrain arrangements. eta' precipitates strengthened the alloy by dispersion hardening, but retarded an increase in the strain rate sensitivity during grain refinement. The influence of eta' precipitates is discussed with respect to their effect on dislocation configurations and deformation mechanisms during processing of the alloy.
