The influence of combined (helical and pass) rolling on the structure, residual porosity, and microhardness of an AA6082-0.2 wt % Al2O3 composite produced by casting with ultrasonic processing was evaluated in comparison with the matrix alloy. The nanosized alumina particles resulted in a more homogeneous and fine-grained structure of the composite after deformation with higher microhardness in comparison with the matrix alloy. However, the residual porosity of the AA6082-0.2 wt % Al2O3 composite was retained even after combined rolling on the level typical of alloys produced by the method, which may be a result of relatively low stresses and strains introduced during deformation.
