Summary:The method for equal channel angular extrusion increases yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of a dissolvable aluminum alloy. A billet of a dissolvable aluminum alloy is wrapped with a sheet cover so as to form a wrapped billet. The wrapped billet is extruded through an equal channel angular extrusion die with an extrusion angle ranging 90-135 degrees so as to form an extruded billet. The step of extruding is at a temperature ranging 150-250 degrees C., an extrusion rate ranging 0.003-0.010 inches per second, and a back pressure ranging 200-10000 psi. The dissolvable aluminum alloy of the extruded billet has a yield strength and ultimate tensile strength 50% greater than the initial yield strength and initial ultimate tensile strength.
