Abstract
An ITER-grade Cu–Cr–Zr alloy was subjected to equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at 400 °C via routes BC and C, i.e. rotated 90° or 180° around the extrusion axis before subsequent passes. The microstructure of ECAP deformed samples showed shear bands confining small recrystallized grains of about ∼0.2–1 μm in size. The best mechanical properties were observed for sample ECAP processed via route BC for which the density of shear bands is high and the interaction among them is notable.
