In the present work, laminated Cu/Ni samples reinforced by graphene film with various thicknesses were produced via electrophoretic depositing graphene oxide (GO) on Cu foil by controlling deposition voltage, and the effect of thickness of graphene film on strengthening Cu/Ni multilayer composites were investigated in detail. Microstructural examination revealed that the fragments of graphene film were dispersed at the interface between Cu and Ni layer after hot rolling, with a range of thickness from 0.76 to 5.13 μm. The graphene film showed an excellent strengthening effect in the composites regardless of their thickness according to the tensile testing. However, the toughing effect achieved optimal as the thickness of 4.12 μm. The role of deposited graphene film played in determining the load transfer and optimizing the interface was discussed. Graphene film with appropriate thickness can effectively inhibit the severe asymmetric diffusion behavior of Cu and Ni elements, which plays an important role in strengthening and toughening clad interfaces by inhibiting the formation of Kirkendall voids. This study provides novel insights into understanding the strengthening and toughing behaviors of graphene reinforced multilayer composites, which can be developed into a technical strategy for fabricating high performance laminated metal matrix composites.
