摘要
The paper study the interfacial mechanical properties and structural evolution mechanisms in 6061/AZ31B/6061 composite plates with and without Ni foil interlayers.For Ni-free interfaces,a continuous diffusion layer(3.5-4.0μm)forms,dominated by brittle columnar Al_(12)Mg_(17) intermetallic compounds(IMCs,0.27-0.35μm thick),which act as preferential crack initiation sites.In contrast,Ni foil implantation induces interfacial restructuring during hot rolling:Constrained deformation fragments the Ni foil into grid-like segments with"olive"-shaped crosssections,embedded into Mg/Al matrices.These fragments(56% areal coverage)coexist with dispersed multiphase IMCs(Mg_(2)Ni,Al_(3)Ni,Mg_(3)AlNi,Al_(12)Mg_(17);10-20 nm grains)at fragment edges,forming a hybrid interface of"willow-leaf"Al_(12)Mg_(17) islands and nanoscale Mg_(2)Ni/Al_(3)Ni layers(15-25 nm).Hall-Petch analysis reveals the multiphase IMC interface exhibits 3.6×higher"kd^(-1/2)"strengthening contribution than single-phase Al_(12)Mg_(17) systems,attributed to grain refinement(20 nm vs.260 nm average grain size).Synergistic effects of mechanical interlocking,adhesion hierarchy(Ni-Al>Ni-Mg>Al-Mg),and nanoscale reinforcement collectively enhance peel strength by 78%without compromising bulk tensile properties.
