This chapter focuses on multifunctional properties of ultrafine-grained (UFG) metallic materials processed by severe plastic deformation (SPD), such as enhanced mechanical properties, excellent superplasticity, and wear resistance. Based on these multifunctional properties, the potential innovative application for UFG materials processed by SPD is introduced in the next section, including innovative application in micro-forming, nanoimplants, electro-connections, and sport engineering.
