Now the dissimilar metal joints are especially popular in defense, aerospace, automobile, bio-medical,refinery and nuclear engineerings. In friction welding, some special alloys with dual phase are not joined successfully due to poor bonding strength. The alloy surfaces after bonding also have metallurgical changes in the line of interfacing. The reported research work in this area is scanty. Although the sound weld zone of direct bonding between Tie6Ale4 V and SS304 L was obtained though many trials, the joint was not successful. In this paper, the friction welding characteristics between Tie6Ale4 V and SS304 L into which pure oxygen free copper(OFC) was introduced as interlayer were investigated. Boxe Behnken design was used to minimize the number of experiments to be performed. The weld joint was analyzed for its mechanical strength. The highest tensile strength between Tie6Ale4 V and SS304 L between which pure copper was used as insert metal was acquired. Micro-structural analysis and elemental analysis were carried out by EDS, and the formation of intermetallic compound at the interface was identified by XRD analysis.展开更多

Sound joints were successfully achieved by using a Cu-Ni alloy as filler material. According to X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis results three transitional layers at the weld/Ti3Al interface were verified as follows: Ti2AlNb phase dissolved with Cu and Ni; Al(Cu,Ni)2Ti, (Cu,Ni)2Ti and (Nb, Ti) solid solution; Cu-rich phase and a complex multi-element phase. The In718/weld interface is characterized by solid solutions of Ni, Cu, Cr, Fe and Nb. The average tensile strength of the as-welded joints at room temperature is 163 MPa, and after a post-weld heat treatment it is increased slightly to 177 MPa. The fracture occurred at the surfacial layer of the joined Ti3Al base alloy, indicating that the Ti2AINb layer dissolved with Cu and Ni is the weak link of the Ti3Al/In718 joint.展开更多

The experimental results show that the near isothermal forging processing parameters have little effect on the phase constitution of the weld. The weld consists of Ti2AlNb, MoNb, Nb3Al, and TiAl3 phases as well as the two main phases of α and α2. However, the near isothermal forging processing parameters have significant effect on the shape, size, and volume fraction of α and α2 phases of the welding interface. The sizes of the α and α2 phases increase as the strain rate decreases. Because the distortion energy of the lattice and the volume fraction of the grains occurring in dynamic recrystallization increase with an increase in deformation, the sizes of the α and α2 phases of the welding interface decrease.展开更多

The interfacial microstructure of the joint was observed and analyzed using electron microscopy; the tensile shear strength was investigated. An approximate 160 nm thick layer of Al solid solution supersaturated with Ti was observed at the interface between titanium and aluminum alloy. The solid solution layer contained the precipitates TiAla. And an approximate 1. 5 μm thick serrate reaction layer was observed at the interface between stainless steel and aluminum alloy. The maximum tensile shear load of 5.38 kN was obtained from the joint welded at the welding current of 10 kA. The results reveal that the property of the joint between titanium and stainless steel can be improved by using an aluminum alloy insert.展开更多
