In(el) Fig. 6--Weibull plot of the fracture strain of differently treated NiAI specimens. P; is the probability for the fracture strain to be below a certain value. The details of the specimen preparation are listed in Table I.

fracture stresses are in the upper range of those commonly found for engineering ceramics. The loss in ductility due to grinding is recovered to a large extent by annealing. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

In recent years, various thermomechanical processes (TMP) have been developed to produce a fine grain size in high-strength aluminum alloys.ll-6I Paton eta/. 171 have applied their TMP method and processed 7075 and 7475 aluminum alloys. These materials exhibited optimum superplastic behavior at a temperature 789 K (516 ~ and a strain rate of 2 x l 0 -4 s - I . However, Bampton and Edington ISI reported that because the high-strength 7075 aluminum alloy contains more Fe and Si impurities than the 7475 aluminum alloy, its maximum elongation is lower than that of 1200
