The result shows that, with the increase of extrusion ratio, the microstructure becomes more fine and homogeneous. At low extrusion ra- tio, the crystalline grain is refined with increasing the extrusion, the tensile strength of the alloy is improved. At high extrusion ratio, the strength doesn’t increase and has the tendency to reduce instead again. When the extrusion ratio is 19.7, the strength is 265MPa, and when the extrusion ratio is 400, the strength is 295.5MPa, which improves about 10%. The specific elongation and contraction of area fall down with the increase of extrusion ratio.
