Popis: Accumulative roll bonding (ARB) technique is used in this paper to produce aluminum/alumina composite sheets. Alumina content was added as 1,3 and 5wt%. The produced Al/Al2O3 composite sheets are piled up and processed by accumulative roll bonding (50% reduction) after preheating at 280 °C with different regimes (2–8 cycles). Statistical design analysis was applied to examine the effects of alumina content and no. of accumulative roll bonding cycles on the ultimate tensile strength for aluminum/alumina composite sheets. Empirical formulas were deduced to recognize key parameters that controlling tensile behavior. XRD detection was carried out to explore dominant planes controlling plasticity Al/Al2O3 composites. In general, addition of alumina and proceeding different cycles increases strength. FE-SEM microstructure showed that alumina plays important roll on the aluminum sheets during ARB process where the metal of aluminum flow among them producing highly sheared matrix.
