The superplastic deformation characteristics is powder metallurgy(PM) Al-Li alloy has been studied within the framework of a recently proposed internal variable theory of superplasticity(SSP). The flow curves were obtained by performing a series of load relaxation tests at the temperature range from 45$0^{\circ}C$ to 52$0^{\circ}C$ It has been found that the overall flow curves were separated into the grain boundary sliding(GBS) and the accommodating dislocation glide processes/ The tensile curves were also obtained to clarify the superplastic deformation bahavior of PM Al-Li alloy. The microstructural features of PM AL-Li alloy have been examined through the transmission electron microscopy.
