dc.description.abstractThe present investigation is on synthesis of in situ Al-alumina composite and to evaluate the effect of equal channel angular pressing on the refinement of the grain structure and enhancement in the hardness and the strength. The billets pressed in as cast condition has shown cracks during first pass. The billets pressed immediately after solution treatment for one pass and followed by ageing treatment immediately after pressing exhibited very high hardness of 125BHN against 95 BHN to that of the T6 condition of 6061 aluminium alloy. The microstructural refinement from 35 μm to 11 μm is obtained in annealed and ECAP 2 pass condition. © (2012) Trans Tech Publications.
