The results show that spray deposited 5083 Al exhibits anequiaxed grain morphology with an average size of 15 m and porosity in the range of 0.1 vol. % to 5vol. % . Two distinct TMP procedures are employed to close porosity and refine grain size:extrusion plus rolling and direct rolling. The material processed using the former method exhibits arelatively high superplasticity with a maximum superplastic elongation of 465 % , whereas thatprocessed using the latter method exhibits a maximum superplastic elongation of 295 % . Materialsprocessed using extrusion plus rolling and direct rolling both exhibit similar stress-strainbehavior and strain rate sensitivity factors. The strain rate factors are in the 0.3 to 0.5 range.The difference in their superplastic elongation is possibly the result of differences in grain sizeand available cavity nucleation sites provided by closed gas pores.展开更多
