In this present study Al-5083 alloy powders were prepared from elemental powders using high energy ball milling under optimized milling parameters. Various properties such as crystalline size, particle size and morphology have been studied using X-Ray diffraction analysis and Scanning Electron Microscopy. It was found that Al-5083 alloy was formed and nanocrystalline size particles were achieved. These nanocrystalline Al-5083 alloy powders were consolidated using equal channel angular pressing with and without application of back pressure. Physical and mechanical properties such as density and hardness are studied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
