description <p dir="ltr">An artifact-free bulk nanocrystalline (NC) aluminum (Al)-2% lithium (Li) alloy was synthesized in this study using <i>in-situ</i> consolidation via a combination of cryogenic and room temperature milling. The mechanical behavior of this alloy was investigated by tensile testing and microhardness measurements, and it was compared with coarse-grained (CG) Al alloys and a commercially pure NC Al synthesized using the same method. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis revealed that the grain size of the NC Al-2% Li alloy and NC pure Al are 18 nm and 29 nm, respectively. The NC Al-Li alloy showed extremely high yield and ultimate tensile strength values of 440 MPa and 556 MPa, respectively. In addition, a high tensile ductility of 14% was achieved in the NC Al-Li alloy along with a relatively high strain hardening exponent (0.11). The high-resolution TEM investigations indicate a dependency of these extraordinarily tensile properties on multiple deformation mechanisms such as dislocation slip and pile-up and deformation twinning.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Materials Today Communications<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.mtcomm.2020.101607" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.mtcomm.2020.101607</a></p>
