Abstract

Mechanical properties of bulk nanocrystalline Al-4Cu alloys with grain sizes from 47 to 105 nm, synthesized by mechanically alloying followed by vacuum hot pressing at different temperatures, were analysed through Hall-Petch relation. Hall-Petch analysis revealed a high frictional stress (170 MPa) and a high positive slope (0.13 Mpa √m) as compared to pure Al, which has a frictional stress (15-30 MPa) and a slope (0.06-0.09 Mpa √m). From a detailed evaluation of different strengthening mechanisms it is inferred that the Al2Cu precipitates and oxide particles are the likely reason for such high values of frictional stress and slope.
