Bulk nanocrystalline Al87Ni8La5 specimens were prepared by in-situ devitrification and consolidation of gas atomized glassy powders. Consolidation was carried out at different temperatures by hot extrusion as well as by spark plasma sintering (SPS). Both techniques lead to highly dense bulk specimens with a microstructure consisting of an fcc-Al phase together with several intermetallic compounds. The powders consolidated by SPS display the highest compression strength, which depends on the consolidation temperature and ranges between 900 and 1000 MPa, together with plastic strains not exceeding 10 %. The extruded samples are characterized by a maximum strength of about 800 MPa but generally show larger plastic strains that can reach values of about 20 %. These results indicate that the mechanical properties of the samples can be tuned within a wide range of strength and ductility as a function of the consolidation technique and parameters used.
