dc.description.abstractApplying inter-layer rolling to the wire+arc additively manufacturing (WAAM) process with increasing loads of 15 kN, 30 kN and 45 kN, achieves excellent mechanical properties for 5087 (Al-Mg4.5-Mn) alloys. Compared with the as-deposited alloy, the average micro hardness, yield stress and ultimate tensile strength of 45 kN rolled alloys reached to 107.2 HV, 240 MPa and 344 MPa, which were enhanced by 40%, 69% and 18.2%, respectively. Primary coarse grain structures were found to become greatly refined with an evident rolling texture after deformation. The strengthening mechanisms mainly are deformation strengthening, grain refinement, and solution strengthening. Meanwhile, the elongation of rolled alloys stays over 20%. The plasticity was not obviously diminished compared with the as-deposited alloy. This is two times greater than the commercial wrought Al-Mg alloy with similar composition. The excellent plasticity may be chiefly due to grain refinement, pores closure and reduction, and grain recrystallization during the WAAM re-heating process. The combination process of rolling deformation with WAAM deposition is an effective technique in refining microstructure and improving mechanical properties for AM aluminum alloys.en_UK
