Achieving three-layered Al/Mg/Al sheet via combining porthole die co-extrusion and hot forging
Al/Mg/Al sheet with good bonding quality and mechanical properties was fabricated based on the proposed porthole die co-extrusion and forging (PCE-F) process. There were no voids, cracks or other defects on the Al/Mg interface. A continuous diffusion zone with two-sub-layer structure was formed acro...
