Before deformation the microstructure was composed of alternating coarse-grained plates of the ζ and ε compounds (Hume-Rothery electronic phases). HPT led, as usual, to the strong grain refinement and increase of dislocation density. However, the macroscopic shape of ζ and ε plates remained unchanged. It means that the refinement took place in each phase individually, i.e. inside the respective ζ and ε plates. High angle grain boundaries are more pronounced in ε phase. This unusual behavior of the alloy is connected with a high hardness of the ζ and ε intermetallic compounds.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matlet.2016.05.059} (DOI).
