Abstract
In the present work the deformation of the Al-Al₄C₃ composite is analysed at different temperatures and strain rates. As shown at 400 °C and highest strain rate applied 10^-1 s^-1, a significant elongation growth was observed with a corresponding reduction of the fractured area. On the base of TEM analysis and according to our previous papers, it is supposed to be the result of dynamic grain polygonisation, rotation and partial recrystallisation in the tested system, known as strain-induced dynamic recovery.
