  • Thin, deformable composite laminate
    Patent number: 4671985
    Abstract: A thin, plastically formable composite laminate features at least one metallic outer layer (14) and a core (10) of thermoplastic plastic. The metallic outer layers (14) exhibit a flat stress-strain curve which is similar to that of the plastic core (10) and is achieved by specific types of aluminum alloys and by specific alloy treatments. The, preferably 1.5-2.5 mm thick, composite laminates are employed for the manufacture of shaped parts in light weight constructions, especially in automobile, equipment and architectural applications.
