Abstract: An aluminum alloy material according to an embodiment of the present invention is an aluminum alloy including a grain boundary and a plurality of grains divided by the grain boundary, and having a face-centered cubic crystal structure, and includes a band formed by employing one or more non-metallic elements selected from oxygen (O), carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in an aluminum matrix. Each of the grains includes a plurality of sub-grains divided by a low-angle grain boundary (LAGB), and a band positioned at the low-angle grain boundary may form a coherent interface with an aluminum matrix. Since a plurality of dislocations already are present in the band, a dislocation cell size is reduced during plastic deformation, which greatly contributes to an improvement in elongation. Such an aluminum alloy material can be subjected to cold rolling at a high reduction rate, and as a result, a plate having significantly improved elongation can be obtained.

Abstract: An austenitic steel matrix-nanoparticle composite and a producing method thereof are provided. The composite includes: an austenitic steel matrix that includes an alloying element; and a nanoparticle that grows in situ in the matrix and that is formed in the matrix. The nanoparticle grows from the alloying element included in the austenitic steel matrix. The method includes: preparing an austenitic steel matrix including an alloying element; and heating the austenitic steel matrix. In the method, the nanoparticle grows in situ in the matrix from the alloying element which is solid-dissolved in the austenitic steel matrix by the heating.
