Summary:This paper investigated the influence of high frequency impacting and rooling (HFIR) treatment on the microstructure, average microstrain, dislocation density, nanomicrohardness, tensile strength and corrosion behavior of 2A12 aluminum alloy. A SPD layer was successfully generated. With the static pressure increased, the average grain size of top surface decreased. There is increase in nanomicrohardness, elastic modulus and tensile strength with increase of static pressure. 2A12 aluminum alloy treated by 500 N static pressure exhibited best corrosion resistance among all the samples, including the HFIR-free one. Factors such as small grain size, compressive residual stress, low surface roughness, and formation of dense passive film played a vital role in improving the corrosion resistance.
