Copper single crystals were subjected to equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) via the so-called route A and Bc, in order to examine the influence of initial crystallographic orientation and processing route on microstructure development and grain fragmentation. Microstructural changes were examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The pressing via the route Bc resulted in finer microstructure for all orientations in terms of grain size, equiaxiality and orientation scattering after four passes. Effect of initial crystallographic orientation on the grain refinement was also recognized, and it might be attributed to heterogeneous deformation such as shear bands, whose formation is strongly orientation dependent. After eight passes, however, the effect of processing route and initial orientation cannot be recognized.

The deformation mechanisms of various kinds of single crystals and bicrystals during the process of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) have been paid more attention world wide. This paper reviews the recent progresses in the understanding of the deformation mechanisms of single crystals and bicrystals subjected to one-pass ECAP, and discusses the effect of initial crystallographic orientation and grain boundary on the microstructural evolution of these crystals. Based on those experimental results and analysis, it is suggested that in addition to the shear deformation along the intersection plane (IP) of ECAP die, the shear along the normal of IP also plays an important role in affecting the microstructural evolution and deformation mechanisms of these single crystals and bicrystals.

High purity aluminum (Al) and copper (Cu) single crystals of different crystallographic orientations were processed for one pass by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP). The deformed structures were examined using orientation imaging microscopy (OIM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). This paper examines the experimental results in terms of the values of the shear factors based on simple shear theory.

This paper describes experiments in which high purity aluminum (Al) and copper (Cu) single crystals of different crystallographic orientations were processed for one pass by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP). The deformed structures were examined using optical microscopy (OM), orientation imaging microscopy (OIM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results for Al single crystals are compared with those for Cu single crystals.
