摘要
Rods of commercial-purity tungsten were subjected to severe plastic deformation by means of equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP). An ultrafine-grained (UFG) equiaxed microstructure with an average grain size of about 0.9 mu m was developed. Microhardness measurements in a wide range of temperatures suggest a ductile-to-brittle transition at temperatures below 350 degrees C in the UFG samples after ECAP. In contrast, the results on the as-received material suggest a ductile-to-brittle transition temperature above 483 degrees C. 0 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
