چکیده

The main aim of the current project has been to produce a batch of bulk billets with ultrafine-grained (UFG) microstructure and enhanced strength made of two refractory metals such as tungsten and tantalum. To process bulk W billets with UFG structure having a long-length size more than 100 mm we have developed and successfully used a new approach based on a combination of equal angular pressing (ECAP) and further extrusion. In frames of this project we could also fabricate UFG Ta with strength increased more than 3 times.

EFFECT OF POST-DEFORMATION ANNEALING TREATMENT ON INTERFACE PROPERTIES AND SHEAR BOND STRENGTH OF Al-Cu BIMETALLIC RODS PRODUCED BY EQUAL CHANNEL ANGULAR PRESSING

Effects of annealing treatment after equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) on the interface properties and shear bond strength of Al/Cu bimetallic rods were investigated. For the as-deformed samples, the one with two passes of ECAP indicated higher shear bond strength. Formation of a layer of intermetallic compounds after annealing treatment is confirmed. In general, by increasing annealing tem...
