Abstract

The processing map for hot working of Al alloy 2014-20vol.%Al2O3 particulate-reinforced cast-plus-extruded composite material has been generated covering the temperature range 300–500°C and the strain rate range 0.001–10 s−1 based on the dynamic materials model. The efficiency η of power dissipation given by 2m/(m+1), where m is the strain rate sensitivity, is plotted as a function of temperature and strain rate to obtain a processing map. A domain of superplasticity has been identified, with a peak efficiency of 62% occurring at 500 °C and 0.001 s−1. The characteristics of this domain have been studied with the help of microstructural evaluation and hot-ductility measurements. Microstructural instability is predicted at higher strain rates above (1s−1) and lower temperatures (less than 350°C).
