Two Al-Mg-Mn alloys having similar compositions but with and without Zr addition were subjected to equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at 350 • C using route Bc and a 90 • die, followed by water quenching or air cooling. A series of annealing experiments were conducted at various temperatures from
