Abstract:Three-layer 6009/7050/6009 aluminum alloy clad slab was fabricated by an innovative direct-chill casting process. To study the response of the clad slab to plastic deformation and heat treatments, homogenization annealing, hot rolling, solution and aging were successively performed on the as-cast 6009/7050/6009 clad samples. The results revealed that excellent metallurgical bonding between 7050 alloy layer and 6009 alloy layer was achieved under optimal parameters. The clad ratio obviously decreased when the annealed sample was rolled to 55% hot reduction level, and then changed slightly with further rolling. Furthermore, the content of rodlike Zn-rich phases increased significantly in 7050 alloy layer in the homogenized clad samples after rolling at 55%, 65% and 75% hot reduction levels, and the higher level of hot reduction resulted in narrower diffusion layer. Subsequent solution and aging significantly improved the hardness in 7050 alloy layer, interfaces and 6009 alloy layers of the rolled samples except for the thin side for the 75% hot reduction sample.
