The effect of severe plastic deformation (SPD) on the structure and properties of age-hardening hypereutectic Al—Si alloy is investigated. The composition of the studied alloy is Al—16.5% Si—3.77% Cu. Integrated thermoforce treatment of alloys in the liquid state (with melt treatment in the magnetohydrodynamic apparatus using the Cu—7% P modifier) and in the solid state (with hot pressing through the S-shaped angular matrix) is used. A ‘quasi-eutectic’ structure is observed after SPD of the initial cast state and the homogenized state that allows increasing ductility (up to 5.9%). Ageing results in the increasing strength (up to 459 MPa) and in the reducing plasticity (down to 0.6%).

Key words: hypereutectic silumin, magnetohydrodynamic technique, thermoforce processing of melt, severe plastic deformation, equal-channel angular pressing.
