The fracture behavior of commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti) processed by accumulative roll bonding (ARB) was investigated in this study. Monolithic and Ti-SiC composite samples were first produced by ARB process and then subjected to uniaxial tensile testing at room temperature. Two different ductile fracture mechanisms including shear dimple rupture and equiaxed dimple rupture were observed in the initial and final ARB cycles, respectively. The difference in the rupture mechanism was attributed to different stress states at the crack tip and different densities of metallurgical defects. A non-uniform distribution of dimple size was obtained for fracture surfaces of the samples processed by a low number of ARB cycles. This was attributed to the heterogeneity of microstructure in the primary ARB cycles. The fracture surface of the samples processed by high ARB cycles represented more uniform dimples. This was attributed to more homogenous microstructure in the final cycles. Moreover, SiC particles showed a major role in fracture of samples, so that they affected the size and depth of the dimples, as well as the number of ARB cycles in which the transmission of the fracture mechanism occurred.
