Influence of ultrafine-grained structure parameters on the annealing-induced hardening and deformation-induced softening effects in pure Al

This work investigates the influence of parameters of initial ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure in commercially pure (CP) Al on annealing-induced hardening (AIH) and deformation-induced softening (DIS) effects. UFG structures were formed via processing CP Al by various methods of severe plastic defo...

description This work investigates the influence of parameters of initial ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure in commercially pure (CP) Al on annealing-induced hardening (AIH) and deformation-induced softening (DIS) effects. UFG structures were formed via processing CP Al by various methods of severe plastic deformation (high pressure torsion (HPT), equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and combination of ECAP and cold rolling (CR)). AIH and DIS effects are observed in all the studied UFG structures. However, HPT Al demonstrates large increase of strength due to annealing and drastic gain of ductility after subsequent additional deformation whereas in ECAP Al and ECAP + CR Al both effects are much less pronounced. Microstructure characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was performed for HPT Al and ECAP + CR Al in the three studied states: before and after annealing and after annealing and subsequent additional deformation. Analysis of microstructure evolution during annealing and subsequent additional deformation shows that the key microstructure parameter which is responsible for AIH and DIS effect is the change of dislocation density in grain interior in ECAP + CR Al, whereas in HPT Al the effects are related to the change of dislocation density at/near grain boundaries. In addition, outstanding combination of high strength (∼210 MPa), high electrical conductivity (∼62 %IACS) with sufficiently good ductility (7–10 %) and thermal stability (up to 150°С, at least) was achieved for ECAP + CR Al after annealing at 150 °C, 1h.
