Plastic Deformation-Induced Nanocrystalline Aluminum in Al-Based Amorphous Alloys
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
We report the first direct observation of crystallization induced in the slipped planes of aluminum based amorphous alloys by bending the amorphous ribbons. Nanometer-sized crystalline precipitates are found exclusively within a thin layer (shear band) in the slipped planes extending across the deformed amorphous alloy ribbons. It is also found that the nanocrystalline aluminum can be produced by ball-Milling. It is likely that local atomic rearrangements within the shear bands create the nanocrystals which appear after plastic deformation.
