The effect of severe plastic deformation by high-pressure torsion (HPT) on the structure and plastic tensile properties of two Zr-based bulk metallic glasses, Zr55.7Ni10Al7Cu19Co8.3 and Zr64Ni10Al7Cu19, was investigated. The compositions were chosen because, in TEM investigation, Zr55.7Ni10Al7Cu19Co8.3 exhibited nanoscale inhomogeneity, while Zr64Ni10Al7Cu19 appeared homogeneous on that length scale. The nanoscale inhomogeneity was expected to result in an increased plastic strain limit, as compared to the homogeneous material, which may be further increased by severe mechanical work. The as-cast materials exhibited 0.1% tensile plasticity for Zr64Ni10Al7Cu19 and Zr55.7Ni10Al7Cu19Co8.3. Following two rotations of HPT treatment, the tensile plastic strain was increased to 0.5% and 0.9%, respectively. Further testing was performed by X-ray diffraction and by differential scanning calorimetry. Following two rotations of HPT treatment, the initially fully amorphous Zr55.7Ni10Al7Cu19Co8.3 exhibited significantly increased free volume and a small volume fraction of nanocrystallites. A further increase in HPT rotation number did not result in an increase in plastic ductility of both alloys. Possible reasons for the different mechanical behavior of nanoscale heterogeneous Zr55.7Ni10Al7Cu19Co8.3 and homogeneous Zr64Ni10Al7Cu19 are presented.

In recent years, the methods of severe plastic deformation and rapid melt quenching have proven to be an effective tool for the formation of the unique properties of materials. The effect of high-pressure torsion (HPT) on the structure of the amorphous alloys of the quasi-binary TiNi–TiCu system with a copper content of more than 30 at.% produced by melt spinning technique has been analyzed using the methods of scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The structure examinations have shown that the HPT of the alloys with a Cu content ranging from 30 to 40 at.% leads to nanocrystallization from the amorphous state. An increase in the degree of deformation leads to a substantial change in the character of the crystallization reflected by the DSC curves of the alloys under study. The alloys containing less than 34 at.% Cu exhibit crystallization peak splitting, whereas the alloys containing more than 34 at.% Cu exhibit a third peak at lower temperatures. The latter effect suggests the formation of regions of possible low-temperature crystallization. It has been established that the HPT causes a significant decrease in the thermal effect of crystallization upon heating of the alloys with a high copper content relative to that of the initial amorphous melt quenched state.

This study presents the result of the researches regarding the obtaining of NiTi alloy through powder metallurgy (PM) as a possible alternative to present technologies (melting through induction in vacuum—MIV and re-melting with electric arch in vacuum—VAR). The researches made by the authors have aim at the obtaining of Ni-Ti materials with fine grain or ultrafine grain through powder metallurgy techniques, starting from ordinary metallic powders of Ti, Ni, Cu, with grain size less than 100 micrometers, and also using processing through severe plastic deformation (HPT — high pressure torsion). The fabrication through PM has an important advantage because a product requires low processing subsequent considering that it can get with sizes and shape very similar to the final ones, which is not negligible if one takes into account that the alloys Ni-Ti do not excel on cutting processability. Cylindrical samples were produced by cold uniaxial compression, at the specific pressure of 600 MPa, dosed in a proportion of 52.5 % Ni + 43.5 % Ti + 4.0 % Cu, mass composition. The compressed samples, after the sintering in vacuum and severe plastic deformation have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) , differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and optical microscopy.

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is a thermal analysis technique that measures the energy absorbed or released by a sample as a function of temperature or time. DSC has wide application for analysis of solid state reactions and solid-liquid reactions in many different materials. In recent years, DSC has been applied to analyze materials and alloys processed through Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD). The basic principle of SPD processing is that a very high strain is introduced into materials which achieve significant grain refinement and improve properties of materials. This review paper presents some recent examples of the applications of DSC for materials subjected to SPD, especially by Equal-Channel Angular Pressing and High-Pressure Torsion.

Precipitation effects in age-hardenable Mg-13wt.%Tb alloy were investigated in this work. The solution treated alloy was subjected to isochronal annealing and decomposition of the supersaturated solid solution was investigated by positron annihilation spectroscopy combined with transmission electron microscopy, electrical resistometry, differential scanning calorimetry and microhardness measurements. Peak hardening was observed at 200°C due to precipitation of finely dispersed particles of β phase with the D019structure. Vacancy-like defects associated with β phase particles were detected by positron annihilation. At higher temperatures precipitation of β and subsequently β phase takes place. Formation of these phases lead to some additional hardening and introduces open volume defects at precipitate/matrix interfaces. To elucidate the effect of plastic deformation on the precipitation sequence we studied also a Mg-13wt.%Tb alloy with ultra fine grained structure prepared by high pressure torsion. In the ultra fine grained alloy precipitation of the β phase occurs at lower temperature compared to the coarse grained material and the peak hardening is shifted to a lower temperature as well. This effect can be explained by enhanced diffusivity of Mg and Tb atoms due to a dense network of grain boundaries and high density of dislocations introduced by severe plastic deformation. Moreover, dislocations and grain boundaries serve also as nucleation sites for precipitates. Hence, precipitation effects are accelerated in the alloy subjected to severe plastic deformation.

This paper presents the results of experimental X-ray structural analyses of both the evolution structure and the crystallographic one in the volume of Ti samples, subjected to the Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD), realized by torsion under high pressure equal to 6 GPa at temperature 298 K. The investigations have been carried out on the disk-shaped samples with the radius of 20 mm in an initial state (the as-received state) and in the states after 0.1, 0.5, 1 and 5 rotations by High-Pressure Torsion (HPT). In the result the evolution mechanisms of the general X-ray patterns, the volume fraction of phases, the character of preferred orientations, as well as the activity of various slip and twinning systems in α- and ω-phases, depending on the SPD degree have been found out. The received results allow explaining and forecasting the behavior of nanostructured Ti, considering the parameters of its microstructure and crystallographic texture.

The processing of binary alloys consisting of ferromagnetic Fe and antiferromagnetic Cr by severe plastic deformation (SPD) with different chemical compositions has been investigated. Although the phase diagram exhibits a large gap in the thermodynamical equilibrium at lower temperatures, it is shown that techniques based on SPD help to overcome common processing limits. Different processing routes including initial ball milling (BM) and arc melting (AM) and a concatenation with annealing treatments prior to high-pressure torsion (HPT) deformation are compared in this work. Investigation of the deformed microstructures by electron microscopy and synchrotron X-ray diffraction reveal homogeneous, nanocrystalline microstructures for HPT deformed AM alloys. HPT deformation of powder blends and BM powders leads to an exorbitant increase in hardness or an unusual fast formation of a σ-phase and therefore impede successful processing.

SUS316L austenitic stainless steel was subjected to severe plastic deformation (SPD) by the method of high pressure torsion (HPT). From a fully austenitic matrix (γ), HPT resulted in phase transformation from g®a¢. The largest volume fraction of 70% a¢ was obtained at 0.2 revolutions per minute (rpm) while was limited to 3% at 5rpm. Pre-straining of g by HPT at 5rpm decreases the volume fraction of a¢ obtained by HPT at 0.2rpm. By HPT at 5rpm, a¢®g reverse transformation was observed for a¢ produced by HPT at 0.2rpm.

The changes of the phase composition, structure and physicomechanical properties of Ti‑40 mas % Nb after severe plastic deformation are investigated in this paper. By the methods of microstructural, X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy it is determined that phase and structural transformations occur simultaneously in the alloy after severe plastic deformation. The martensitic structure formed after tempering disappears. The inverse α'' → β transformation occurs. The structure consisting of oriented refined grains is formed. The alloy is hardened due to the cold working. The Young modulus is equal to 79 GPa and it is less than that of initial alloy and close to the value obtained after tempering. It is possible that Young modulus is reduced by additional annealing.

The texture of Al – 0.7 wt. % Li alloy processed by two different methods of severe plastic deformation (SPD) has been investigated by X-ray diffraction, and analyzed in terms of the orientation distribution function (ODF). It was found that severe plastic deformation by both Equal Channel Angular extrusion (ECAE) and Hydrostatic Extrusion (HE) resulted in an ultrafine grained structure in an Al – 0.7 wt. % Li alloy. The microstructure, grain shape and size, of materials produced by SPD strongly depend on the technological parameters and methods applied. The texture of the investigated alloy differed because of the different modes of deformation. In the initial state the alloy exhibited a very strong texture consisting of {111} fibre component. A similar fibrous texture characteristic was also found after HE whereas after the ECAE the initial texture was completely changed.

This work focuses on the temperature evolution of the martensitic phase ε (hexagonal close packed) induced by the severe plastic deformation via High Speed High Pressure Torsion method in Fe57Mn27Si11Cr5 (at %) alloy. The iron rich alloy crystalline structure, magnetic and transport properties were investigated on samples subjected to room temperature High Speed High Pressure Torsion incorporating 1.86 degree of deformation and also hot-compression. Thermo-resistivity as well as thermomagnetic measurements indicate an antiferromagnetic behavior with the Néel temperature (TN) around 244 K, directly related to the austenitic γ-phase. The sudden increase of the resistivity on cooling below the Néel temperature can be explained by an increased phonon-electron interaction. In-situ magnetic and electric transport measurements up to 900 K are equivalent to thermal treatments and lead to the appearance of the bcc-ferrite-like type phase, to the detriment of the ε(hcp) martensite and the γ (fcc) austenite phases.
