Abstract
The paper aims to summarize the research on Laminar Metal Composites produced by Accumulative Roll Bonding. After some notes on the general subject, frequent material combinations and the issue of bonding are addressed. Then, the evolution of microstructure, texture, and mechanical properties typically observed in such materials is briefly summarized. Furthermore, the crucial aspect of layer continuity is discussed. In the main part, detailed experimental insight is provided for three representatives of different structural developments, namely Al2N/Al5N, Cu/Nb, and Ti/Al. The chosen systems represent different levels of component dissimilarity, as Al2N/Al5N is a combination of the same face centered cubic metal with varying purity while Cu/Nb and Ti/Al are combinations of face centered cubic with both body centered cubic and hexagonal close packed metals, respectively. As the layer thicknesses span different ranges, the composites also illustrate both the opportunities and experimental challenges of ARB Laminar Metal Composites.
