摘要
Highest strength for 7075 Al alloy was obtained by combining the equal-channel-angular pressing (ECAP) and natural aging processes. The tensile yield strength and ultimate strength of the ECAP processed and naturally aged sample were 103% and 35% higher, respectively, than those of the coarse-grained 7075 Al alloy counterpart. The enhanced strength resulted from high densities of Guinier-Preston (G-P) zones and dislocations. This study shows that severe plastic deformation has the potential to significantly enhance the mechanical properties of precipitate hardening 7000 series Al alloys.
