WEAR PROPERTIES OF 1100 AL ALLOY PRODUCED BY ACCUMULATIVE ROLL BONDING
Abstract
Ultra-fine grained 1100 Al alloy was successfully produced by accumulative roll bonding (ARB) process. TEM investigation and SAD patterns showed that, after eight cycles of ARB, sheets were found to contain ultra-fine grains with high angle grain boundaries. The mechanical properties of the ARB processed (ARBed) 1100 aluminum alloy increased with increasing the number of ARB cycles. The elongation dropped abruptly at the first cycles. Wear properties were investigated using a pin on disk wear machine at ambient environment. Contrary to an expectation, the wear resistance of the ARBed Al alloy was less than the non-processed Al alloy. Morphologies of worn surfaces were studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM).
