Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Twist Extruded Pure Aluminum Processed by Post-Rolling

Article Preview

Abstract:

Interest in processing of bulk ultrafine-grained materials has grown significantly over the last years. Severe plastic deformation processes such as twist extrusion have been the essence of these researches and used to decrease the bulk grain size. The bulk gain size can reduce if twist extrusion process combines with a conventional forming technique. In this study, the effects of reduction by employing the rolling process after the twist extrusion method were considered. The twist extrusion process of the commercially pure aluminum sample was carried out using a twisted die with 60º die angle, and the samples were processed through rolling subsequently. As a result of rolling, average microstructure grain size decreased significantly and the hardness amount increased accordingly
