Recently, the accumulative roll bonding (ARB) technique has made significant progress in the production of various ultrafine-grained (UFG) metals and alloys. In this work, a UFG copper sheet was produced by ARB and subsequent annealing at 300 °C for 60 min to optimize strength and ductility. It was found that homogeneous lamellar UFG materials with a thickness of 200–300 nm were formed after six ARB passes. The microhardness and tensile strength of as-ARBed Cu increased, while the ductility and strain hardening decreased with the cumulative deformation strain. The as-ARBed specimens fractured in a macroscopically brittle and microscopically ductile way. After annealing, discontinuous recrystallization occurred in the neighboring interface with high strain energy, which was prior to that in the matrix. The recrystallization rate was enhanced by increasing the cumulative strain. UFG Cu ARBed for six passes after annealing manifested a completely recrystallized microstructure with grain sizes approximately ranging from 5 to 10 μm. Annealing treatment reduced the microhardness and tensile strength but improved the ductility and strain hardening of UFG Cu. As-annealed UFG-Cu fractured in a ductile mode with dominant dimples and shear zones. Our work advances the industrial-scale production of UFG Cu by exploring a simple and low-cost fabrication technique.

Accumulative roll-bonding (ARB) process is one of the severe plastic deformation processes for fabricating ultrafine grained materials that exhibit high strength. In aluminum alloys, aging heat treatment has been an important process for hardening materials. In order to achieve good mechanical properties through the combination of grain refinement hardening and precipitation hardening, an Al-4.2wt%Ag binary alloy was used in the present study. After a solution treatment at 550°C for 1.5hr, the alloy was severely deformed by the ARB process at room temperature (RT) up to 6 cycles (equivalent strain of 4.8). The specimens ARB-processed by various cycles (various strains) were subsequently aged at 100, 150, 200, 250°C, and RT. The hardness of the solution treated (ST) specimen increased by aging. On the other hand, hardness of the ARB processed specimen decreased after aging at high temperatures such as 250°C. This was probably due to coarsening of precipitates or/and matrix grains. The specimen aged at lower temperature showed higher hardness. The maximum harnesses achieved by aging for the ST specimen, the specimens ARB processed by 2 cycles, 4 cycles and 6 cycles were 55HV, 71HV, 69HV and 65HV, respectively. By tensile tests it was shown that the strength increased by the ARB process though the elongation decreased significantly. However, it was found that the tensile elongation of the ARB processed specimens was improved by aging without sacrificing the strength. The results suggest that the Al-Ag alloy having large elongation as well as high strength can be realized by the combination of the ARB process for grain refinement and the subsequent aging for precipitation hardening.

In this study, ultrafine grained Al5052/Cu multilayered composite has been produced by accumulative roll bonding (ARB) and fracture properties have been studied using plane stress fracture toughness. The fracture toughness has been investigated for the unprocessed specimens, primary sandwich and first, second, and third cycles of ARB process by ASTM E561 and compact tension (CT) specimens. Also, the microstructure and mechanical properties have been investigated using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, uniaxial tensile tests, and microhardness measurements. The value of plane stress fracture toughness for the ultrafine grained Al5052/Cu composite increased by increasing the number of ARB cycles, continuously from the primary sandwich to end of the third cycle. The maximum value of 59.1 MPa m1/2 has been obtained that it is about 2.77 and 4.05 more than Al5052 and pure Cu (unprocessed specimens). This phenomenon indicated that ARB process and the addition of copper to aluminum alloy could increase the value of fracture toughness to more than three times. The results showed that by increasing the ARB cycles, the thickness of copper layers reduced and after the fifth cycle, the excellent uniformity of Cu layers achieved. By increasing the number of ARB cycles, the microhardness of both aluminum and copper layers have been significantly increased. The tensile strength of the sandwich has been enhanced continually, and the maximum value of 566.5 MPa has been achieved.

Accumulative Roll Bonding (ARB) is one among the techniques in Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) which is used to produce ultrafine grains and nanocrystalline structure in the materials used. Tensile test, micro hardness test, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and bending tests are the various tests carried out to understand the grain refinement of ARB materials. ARB is carried out in homogenous and heterogeneous materials to bring out the useful applications of ultrafine grained materials. ARB process mainly carried out in room, warm and hot temperature. The variations in the structure of the material are obtained by changing the load applied on the roller and by increasing the number of passes. This review paper brings out how the mechanical properties of the materials are improved by ARB process

In this paper, martensitic transformation from ultrafine grained (UFG) austenite fabricated by accumulative roll bonding (ARB) process in a metastable austenite alloy was studied. Microstructural observations and crystallographic analysis were carried out by FE-SEM/EBSD. The results showed that elongated UFG austenite having 200-300 nm in thickness surrounded by high angle boundaries was obtained after 6 cycles of the ARB process. The martensite transformed from the UFG austenite showed characteristic morphology and texture. The martensite transformation starting (Ms) temperature increased after 1 cycle ARB, which is related to increasing amount of nucleation sites, such as low angle boundaries, introduced during early stage of ARB process. In contrast, by increasing the ARB cycles, Ms temperature decreased. Decreasing the Ms temperature could be correlated to strengthening of austenite by the ARB process.
