Bulk nanocrystalline and ultrafine-grained Al-based 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 consolidated materials display high compression strength, which depends on the consolidation technique, together with large plastic deformation. 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.
