Technical Field

Background
High Pressure Torsion (HPT) is used as a processing strengthening method, and mainly comprises an upper anvil 1 ' and a lower anvil 2 ', as shown in fig. 1, the upper anvil 1 ' is nested on the upper part of the lower anvil 2 ', a sample 3 ' is firstly placed between the two anvils, then the upper anvil applies pressure P, the lower anvil rotates to provide shearing force, under the action of the pressure P, the upper anvil descends and presses the sample, the pressure P is usually about several GPa, and then shearing strain is applied to the sample through the rotation of the lower anvil until the required strain amount is obtained.
As can be seen from this conventional HPT process, HPT obtains ultra-fine grained material through the combined action of hydrostatic pressure, shear force and friction force. However, according to a lot of existing experiments, it is shown that, for a sample prepared by a conventional high-pressure torsion method of an integral lower anvil block, since linear velocities of points on a surface of the sample are not uniformly distributed in a radial direction, as shown in fig. 2, a linear velocity V increases linearly as a distance L (hereinafter, referred to as a center distance) from a center of the sample increases, which causes non-uniform distribution of shear strain to which the sample is subjected; the surface hardness is increased along with the increase of the center distance L, the surface structure of a sample is uneven after the traditional HPT processing, the micro galvanic corrosion is formed, the alloy dissolution is accelerated, and the corrosion resistance of the alloy after the HPT is reduced.
