MEEN 489-500 NanoscaleIssues in ManufacturingEqual Channel AngularExtrusion (ECAE)Lecture 1 : <strong>Bulk</strong><strong>Nanostructured</strong> <strong>Materials</strong>1-ECAE 1


<strong>Bulk</strong> <strong>Nanostructured</strong><strong>Materials</strong>Theme 2: Fabrication of bulk materialsthrough severe plastic deformation andnanoparticle consolidationFabrication methods for structural materialsWhynano? ? Evidence for ultrahigh strength and ductilitywhen building blocks are in the nano range.Building blocks? Grains, layers, particles, etc.How do we make building blocks in nano range?How do we connect the building blocks?<strong>Bulk</strong>? In cm rangeProperties: bullet proof aluminum?2-ECAE 1


Theme 1 vs. Theme 2Theme 1 - Lithography: Making engineeringparts and devices smallerTheme 2 is different: Microstructural design forproperties, making building blocks submicronscale.What kind of properties we are interested in?Structural:Magnetic:Electrical (ferroelectrics)(thermoelectrics)grain size and texture isimportant3-ECAE 1


Why is texture and grain sizeimportant for functional properties?Grain size: might be asolution for brittlenessin thermoelectrics andferroelectricsMagnetizationApplied Magnetic FieldTypical thermoelectric coolerfor electronics6-ECAE 1


What is the mechanism for grainboundary strengthening innanocrystalline materials?Hall-Petch Relation:Work-hardening:τσy= σ 0+= τ 0k yd+ αGbρ7-ECAE 1


What is the mechanism for grainboundary strengthening innanocrystalline materials?Two-phase modelGrain-boundary sliding model8-ECAE 1


Top Down or Bottom Up ?Both work tomake bulknanocrystallinematerials Decreasing thegrain size ofalready bulkmaterials:Severe PlasticDeformation(SPD)Consolidationof nanograins(particles).9-ECAE 1


Top down approach to bulknanocrystalline materials fabricationMain principles of Severe PlasticDeformation (SPD):Increase dislocation density by heavilydeforming materials (uniformity! Crosssection!),form dislocation walls,transform dislocation walls into grainboundaries (high angle boundaries)Is there any intrinsic limitation?10-ECAE 1


Severe Plastic Deformation(SPD)11-ECAE 1


Why SPD?Think about materials that must be“heavily” mixed during processingConcreteBreadSamurai Sword Steel (Damascus Steel)Piano WireSuperalloyComponents in Jet EnginesSuperconductorsSheet Stock for Auto BodiesSheet Stock for Beer Cans12-ECAE 1


Why SPD?Why do this mixing?To Refine/Homogenize the MicrostructureTo Strengthen the MaterialTo Enhance the PropertiesExamplesWork HardeningGrain RefinementDevelopment of Special MicrostructuresDevelopment of Special Textures13-ECAE 1
