In this study, we prepared graphene nanosheet reinforced aluminum (GNS/Al) composites exhibiting improved tensile strength from 233 to 287 MPa while retaining good uniform elongation from 5.5 to 5.8% compared with the unreinforced Al, thanks to the interface-induced strain hardening capability. The strain hardening behaviors of the GNS/Al composites were discussed in terms of forest hardening and back stress hardening by using the tensile loading-unloading tests and further quantitatively analyzed through a modified strain hardening model based on the dislocation behaviors, where the contributions of grain boundaries and interfaces were distinguished. It turns out that the interface-induced forest hardening was the main reason for improving the strain hardening capability and uniform elongation of the GNS/Al composites. Microstructural characterization revealed that, the additional strain hardening capability of the composites should be from the higher dislocation storage capability of the GNS-Al interfaces than Al grain boundaries and the accommodation of geometrically necessary dislocations near the GNS-Al interfaces. The present work provides a new insight to the design of both strong and ductile metal matrix nanocomposites.Lire moins >
