This research demonstrates the use of submerged friction stir processing (SFSP). as an alternative and improved method for creating ultrafine-grained bulk materials through severe plastic deformation. SFSP is compared with friction stir processing (FSP) done in air, through the use of thermocouples and transmission electron microscopy. Samples of Al-6064-T6 were created by SFSP that exhibit grain sizes less than 200 nm, while still obtaining a suitably stirred region. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
