Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) results in grain-subgrain structure formation in Cu0.75 %Cr alloy with the average size of structure elements of 320 ± 73 nm Addition of hafnium into the Cu-Cr alloy leads to decrease of average size down to 225±82 nm and to increase of the high angle boundaries fraction from 40% to 53%. Microhardness of the Cu-0.7 %Cr-0.9 %Hf alloy is higher, than of the Cu-0.75 %Cr alloy, as after ECAP, so after heating when the aging processes occur in the temperature interval 400–550 °С. The strength in the tension tests of the Cu-0.7 %Cr-0.9 %Hf alloy after ECAP rises in 2.2 times compared with the quenched state. The aging leads to additional strength growth by 19%.

Abstract properties and structural stability. In a series of studies, Zn - (25-26) wt.% Al - (1-2.5) wt.% Cu alloys have been doped with different levels of added Ti. The alloys’ structure and mechanical properties have been studied using: SEM (scanning electron microscopy), LM (light microscopy), Dilatometry, Pin-on-Disc wear and Strength measurements. Grain refinement leads to significant improvement of ductility in the binary Zn-25Al alloy. In the ternary alloys Zn-26Al-Cu, replacing a part of Cu with Ti allows dimensional changes to be reduced while preserving good tribological properties.

deformation behavior of Al-Cu alloys aged to contain θ ' has been the subject of many investigations (e.g., Ref. 1-5). Since θ ' is strong and hard, dislocations bypass θ ' plates (Orowan mechanism) at low strains. However, at high strains the partially coherent θ ' plates are probably sheared, although the mechanism is complex, depending on the form of deformation. Particularly, the cyclic straining of the bulk alloy is known to produce gross bends and twists of θ '. However, no detailed investigation of the deformation of θ ' has yet been reported; moreover, Calabrese and Laird interpreted the deformation of θ ' as largely being elastic.During an investigation of high temperature cyclic deformation, the detailed electron-microscopic observation revealed that, under reversed straining conditions, θ ' particles are severely distorted--bent and twisted depending on the local matrix constraint. A typical electronmicrograph, showing the twist is shown in Fig. 1. In order to establish whether the deformation is elastic or plastic, a sample from a specimen cycled at room temperature was heated inside the microscope and the results are presented in a series of micrographs (Fig. 2a-e).
