Abstract: Microstructural evolution in the ECAP processed 6061 alloys is one of the severe plastic deformation process where remarkable strengthening is achieved. In this study, a review is carried out on designing and influence of ECAP on mechanical properties. The studies reveal   that Number of stages in ECAP process also affects the microstructure & Tensile properties. The ductility can also be improved by adequate refining microstructure & mechanical properties.
