Abstract
An AA2139 alloy belonging to Al-Cu-Mg-Ag system was subjected to thermomechanical processing (TMP) included solution treatment at 525°C for 1 h, quenching in water, over-aging at 380°C for 3 h followed by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) at 250°C to a total strain of ~12 via route BC. This TMP produced a partially recrystallized structure with fine crystallites having an average size of ~0.9 μm and a fraction of high-angle boundaries of ~56%. Tensile test was performed in the temperature interval 300-500°C at initial strain rates ranging from ~1.8×10-4 to ~1.7×10-1 s-1. It was shown that the highest elongation-to-fracture of ~660% appears at a temperature of 400°C and an initial strain rate of 1.4×10-3 corresponding with the coefficient of sensitivity coefficient, m, of 0.34.
