Al-3.9wt.%Cu alloy was subjected to equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and subsequent low temperature annealing treatment, and the corrosion resistance of the samples was investigated by potentiodynamic polarization measurements in 3.5% NaCl solution. The results show that the corrosion rate of the ultrafine-grained alloy increases, in comparison with the coarse-grained alloy. Meanwhile, it is noted that the corrosion resistance of the alloy subjected to ECAP can be improved by relief annealing.

Micro-embossing tests were performed on ultrafine-grained pure Al processed by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) with 100 μm width of female die at different deformation temperature ranging from 298 K to 523 K under a force of 5 kN. The filling height, surface topography and microstructure of the cross section were measured by confocal scanning laser microscopy (CSLM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD), respectively. The effects of deformation temperature on formability of ultrafine-grained (UFG) pure Al during micro-embossing were analyzed. The results show that increase in deformation temperature can improve the formability of UFG pure Al on micro-embossing. Micro hot embossing of UFG pure aluminum is characterized by the rib sidewall, surface quality, and fully transferred patterns, which shows ultrafine-grained pure Al has potential application in micro-forming.

Cu-32wt.%Zn alloy was subjected to equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and subsequent low temperature annealing treatment, and the corrosion resistance of the samples was investigated by potentiodynamic polarization measurements in 3.5% NaCl solution. The results show that the corrosion rate of the ultrafine-grained alloy decreases, in comparison with the coarse-grained alloy. Meanwhile, it is noted that the corrosion resistance of the sample subjected to ECAP can be further improved by relief annealing.

A series of bulk ultrafine-grained (UFG) pure iron with grain size of 250-450 nm were fabricated by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) and annealing. Effects of ECAP passes on the corrosion behavior of the UFG pure iron were investigated. Results show that ECAP accelerates the acid corrosion rate of pure iron, but improves its anodic passivation property. The acid corrosion resistance of the UFG pure iron is restored through a large number of ECAP passes as well as through an annealing treatment. Annealing treatment is not good for the anodic passivation property of the UFG pure iron after a small number of ECAP passes. However, after a large number of ECAP passes (up to16), the corrosion resistance and anodic passivation property of UFG pure iron are less affected by annealing.
