In this study, forming limit diagrams (FLDs), fracture toughness (FT), mechanical, magnetic, and electro-physical properties of Al/Fe2O3 composites have been investigated experimentally. Accumulative-roll-bonding (ARB) process was used to manufacture composite samples. Then, Al/Fe2O3 composites have been produced at 300∘C up to eight ARB passes. Also, magnetic composites have been fabricated with 0, 5% and 10wt.% of particles. The interlayer bonding quality was improved at higher passes. By studying the SEM rapture morphology, it was shown that the rapture mode changed to shear ductile for samples with more passes. For composite samples fabricated at higher passes and in comparison with the annealed sample, elongated dimples were turned to shallow dimples. FLDs area as the main forming criterion dropped severely after pass one and then began to improve at higher passes. Fracture test results showed that after the 8th pass, the value of FT improved gradually to the maximum value of 34.3MPam1∕2. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
