Bimodal Microstructures in Nanocrystalline Al and Al-Mg Alloy Powders Prepared by Cryogenic Ball Milling F. Zhou1, Z. Lee1, E. J. Lavernia2, S.R. Nutt1 1 Department of Materials Science, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089 2 Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, University of California, Davis, CA 95616 Abstract The microstructures of nanocrystalline Al and Al-7.6 at% Mg alloy powders processed by cryogenic ball milling (i.e., cryomilling) and subsequent thermal annealing were characterized using transmission electron microscopy. The as-milled samples primarily consisted of equiaxed grains with average sizes of ~ 26 nm. The annealing treatments at elevated temperatures resulted in bimodal grain-size distributions, with sub-micrometer-sized grains embedded in a matrix of nanocrystalline (
