Abstract:

High-pressure torsion (HPT) is one of novel severe plastic deformation techniques that can achieve significant grain refinement and strength enhancement in various metals and alloys. In recent years, it was found HPT processing can effectively mix two different metals / alloys from the solid state to produce novel bimetallic composites with excellent mechanical properties [1,2] .

We have successfully processed a Cu-Ta composite using prepacked Cu-Ta-Cu disks in a sandwich-like configuration [3]. After 150 turns HPT processing, the microstructure showed a two-phase feature containing Cu-rich domains and Ta-rich domains. However, each domain consisted of alternating Cu-rich layers and Ta-rich layers. Vorticity and non-monotonic metal flow due to shear deformation introduced by the HPT contributed to the microstructure refinement and layered microstructure formation. With this novel materials processing technique, it is possible to produce immiscible alloys and design high performance bimetallic composites.
