Annealing at 450 °C led to precipitation of coherent Al3Zr phase and a simultaneous co-precipitation of Mn-richα-Al(Mn,Fe)Si phase. Severe plastic deformation by equal channel angular pressing resulted in the grain refinement and increase of microhardness. Observation by electron back-scatter diffraction and in-situ transmission electron microscopy revealed influence of pre-annealing on microstructure changes during post-deformation heat treatment. Dislocation recovery and precipitation ofα-Al(Mn,Fe)Si particles preceded recrystallization at 450 °C in material which was not annealed before deformation. The pre-deformation annealing enabled dynamic recovery during deformation as it depleted the solid solution from Mn atoms. Recrystallization was enhanced by Al3Zr precipitates.展开更多
