SPD Processing and Superplasticity in Ultrafine-Grained Alloys
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
Severe plastic deformation (SPD), for example by intense plastic straining under high pressure, is an innovative technique for producing ultrafine-grained (UFG) metals and alloys. The SPD fabricated UFG structures can lead to enhanced superplasticity, which, however, depends strongly on processing parameters. The present paper focuses on examples of attaining enhanced superplasticity in several alloys, subjected to SPD and considers the relationship between processing – UFG structures – superplastic properties in SPD produced materials.
