Abstract :

Metal matrix composites, high mechanical performance, usability at high temperatures, good wear resistance and low creep rate. This type of composite manufacturing method is very important. Among manufacturing processes, ARB process as a method of applying severe plastic deformation is used on the sheets. In this study 5Wt. % Al/alumina composites fabricated by accumulative roll bonding process up to eight steps using Al1060. Microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of the composite were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), measurement in 3.5wt% NaCl solution. Corrosion behavior of the composite revealed a considerable improvement in the main electrochemical parameters, as a result of enhancing influence of cold rolling. Also, the electrochemical experiments showed that corrosion resistance of samples increasing with increasing the number of ARB cycles. After 8- cycle ARB have a low corrosion density in comparison with high corrosion density of annealed specimens.
