ALUMINUM-FIBER LAMINATE

摘要

Nanostructure aluminum fiber-metal laminates are disclosed. In one embodiment, a laminate includes a nanostructure aluminum metal layer bonded to a fiber layer. In another embodiment, the nanostructure aluminum metal layer may be produced by mechanically alloying an aluminum alloy powder submerged in a liquid nitrogen solution. Alternately, a plurality of fiber layers may be disposed between a pair of nanostructure metallic layers. The laminate may be cured at optimal temperatures that do not affect the properties of the composite. In another embodiment, a hollow core may be incorporated between structure aluminum fiber-metal laminate assemblies.
