Microstructure and properties of 1050A/AZ31 bimetallic bars produced by explosive cladding and subsequent groove rolling process
Abstract Within the framework of this study, the 1050A/AZ31 round bimetal bars were produced by the explosive cladding method and subsequent groove rolling process. LM/SEM investigation shown that by proper selection of the explosive cladding parameters (mainly initial distance between 1050A tube and AZ31 core and detonation velocity) it is possible to produce 1050A/AZ31 feedstocks without a continuous layer of Mg–Al intermetallic phases on the interface between joined materials. The experimental tests of the groove rolling process of 1050A/AZ31 bars were supplemented with a theoretical analysis using FEM-based numerical modelling. Based on the test results obtained, it was found that the interface of the 1050A/AZ31 bar rolling at a temperature (300 °C) was characterized by the generation of a thin continuous intermetallic layer without cracks. Applying a higher rolling temperature of 400 °C, which is usually used in hot forming processes of Mg alloys, led to the production of a thicker intermetallic layer, which cracked during the rolling process as a result of deformation. Strength of the fabricated bimetal joints was high, they did not delaminate during shear tests.
