AbstractNew nanocrystalline aluminum alloys have been fabricated by electrodeposition. These are thermodynamically stable alloys of Al-Mn and Al-Zr with grain sizes <100 nm. Al-Mn and Al-Zr alloys are characterized here showing high strength (up to 1350 MPa) and hardness (up to 450 HVN) while maintaining the specific gravity of Al. Smooth and dense deposits plated from ionic liquids, such as EMIM:Cl (1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride), can develop to thicknesses of 1 mm or more.
