4. Conclusions
- The AA1050/AA6061 laminated composites were successfully processed by three-cycle ARB with the UTS of 236 MPa. After subsequent rolling, the UTS of A3 + RTR and A3 + CR samples increased to 298 MPa and 310 MPa, respectively. Therefore, the mechanical properties of AA1050/AA6061 laminated composites can be obviously enhanced by CR;
- Analyzing the evolution of the microstructure, compared with RTR, CR can improve the interface structure morphology, inhibit dynamic recovery, accumulate higher dislocation density, and further refine grain size. These factors highly contribute to the mechanical improvement of AA1050/AA6061 laminated composites;
- The fracture analysis results reveal that the interfacial delamination existed at the tensile fracture surface of AA1050/AA6061 laminated composites that underwent ARB, and weak bonding positions were also found in the room-temperature rolled sample. In contrast, good bonding between the constituent layers was observed in the fracture morphology of the cryorolled sample, indicating that CR can effectively improve the interfacial bonding quality.
