Commercial Purity Aluminum

Two and six-layer stack accumulative roll bonding (ARB) processes were applied to commercial purity aluminum in order to investigate the effect of the stacking layer number on the mechanical properties. The initial thickness of the aluminum sheets for two and six-layer stack ARB was 1mm and 0.5mm, respectively. Two-layer stack ARB was performed by 50% reduction per cycle. For six-layer stack ARB, the six aluminum sheets were first stacked together and cold-roll-bonded by 50% reduction rolling, and then followed by four-pass rolling so that the final thickness was 0.5mm. The sheet was then cut to the six pieces of same length and the same procedure was repeated to the sheets. The tensile strength of the ARB processed specimens increases with the number of ARB cycles in both two and six layer stack ARB. The tensile strength is lower by the six-layer stack ARB than that by the two-layer stack ARB. The elongation slightly decreases with the number of the ARB cycles, regardless of the stacking layer number. TEM observation reveals that the grain size of the six-layer stack ARB is larger than that of the two-layer stack ARB. The effects of the number of the layers in stacking are explained by the redundant shear deformation.

Al Composite

In the present study, the aluminum (Al) 1050–FeTiO3 composite was fabricated through accumulative roll bonding process, and the resultant mechanical properties were evaluated at different deformation cycles at ambient temperature. The effect of the addition of FeTiO3 particle on the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of the composite during accumulative roll bonding was investigated. The Al–2, 4, and 8 vol.% FeTiO3 composites were produced by accumulative roll bonding at room temperature. The results showed improvement in the dispersions of the particles with the increase in the number of the rolling cycles. In order to study the mechanical properties, tensile and hardness tests were applied. It was observed that hardness and tensile strength improve with increasing accumulative roll bonding cycles. The microhardness and tensile strength of the final composites are significantly improved as compared to those of original raw material Al 1050 and increase with increasing volume fraction of FeTiO3, reaching a maximum of ∼75 HV and ∼169 MPa for Al–8 vol.% FeTiO3 at seventh cycle, respectively.

Cumulative Strain

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.

Strength And Ductility

A multilayered sheet composite of commercial purity Al and Al-0.3%Sc alloys was produced by accumulative roll bonding. The final sheet material consisted of 64 ultra fine grained layers, each of ~7.8mm in thickness. The as-deformed material was annealed at temperatures ranging from 250 to 350°C to study the changes in microstructure and their associated influence on mechanical properties. The as-deformed structures largely comprised of high angle grain boundaries in the Al layers and low angle grain boundaries in the Al(Sc) layers. During annealing, the structures in the Al(Sc) layers remained unaltered, whereas the Al layers recrystallized rapidly to the full layer thickness. The mechanical properties of the Al-Al(Sc) composite were measured and found to be unique in strength and ductility with annealing temperature having a significant influence on these properties.
