Cryorolling of Al-4%Cu-3%TiB2 in situ composite followed by short annealing at 175 ℃ and ageing at 125℃ resulted in an ultra-high yield strength of about 800 MPa with 9%total elongation. The strengthening contributions form solid solution strengthening, grain refinement, dislocation strengthening, precipitation hardening and dispersion strengthening were evaluated using standard equations. It was estimated that the maximum contribution was from grain refinement due to cryorolling followed by precipitation and dispersion strengthening.展开更多
The hot-compression of Al-IMn-IMg （mass fraction, %） alloy sample was carried out on a Gleeble-1500 thermo-simulator at deformation temperatures from 320 to 400 ℃ and strain rates from 0.1 to 10 s 1 by total strain...The hot-compression of Al-IMn-IMg （mass fraction, %） alloy sample was carried out on a Gleeble-1500 thermo-simulator at deformation temperatures from 320 to 400 ℃ and strain rates from 0.1 to 10 s 1 by total strain of 1.4. Microstructure and texture evolution of the hot-compressed alloy were investigated by optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis, respectively. The results show that the relationship among flow stress a, deformation temperature T and strain rate ε can be expressed in the form of βσ = lnε＋Q/（RT）-lnA. The threshold value of In Z （Z is Zener-Hollomon parameter） characterizing the dynamic recrystallization （DRX） is 46, below which the DRX takes place. A strong P orientation {011}（455） associated with a weak cube orientation { 100} （001） is found in the recrystallized sample during hot-compression.展开更多
