Abstract

In the present work, the possibility of obtaining high strength nanostructured aluminium alloys by hydrostatic extrusion has been shown. Billets of 2017 aluminium alloy were subjected to hydrostatic extrusion either immediately after water quenching or after subsequent ageing. The results have shown that processing by hydrostatic extrusion offers a possibility of grain refinement down to the nanometre scale in the age-hardenable aluminium alloy. However, the effectiveness of the process depends on its initial microstructure. The most promising results are obtained if the alloy is deformed in the as-quenched condition. The hydrostatically extruded aluminium alloy exhibits very high tensile strength with reasonable ductility. The stability of mechanical properties over a wide range of temperatures (from cryogenic to well above the ambient) is discussed. The results obtained are compared to similar 2XXX aluminium alloys processed by other severe plastic deformation methods.
