Abstract

Aluminum alloy sheets were asymmetrically rolled at room and cryogenic temperatures by imposing different velocity ratios of 1~1.5 between the upper and bottom rolls. After rolling, the stress-strain curves, microhardness as well as the microstructures of the rolled samples were characterized and analyzed. The experimental results showed that the asymmetric cryorolling could improve the grain refinement and offered (~12%) higher room temperature tensile strength than that processed by symmetrical rolling with velocity ration of 1.0 (~280 MPa). However, at cryogenic temperature, the strength of asymmetrically cryorolling sheet (with velocity ratio of 1.5) was 5.1%, which is less than that processed by symmetrical rolling.
