“…These brittle Fe-Ti intermetallic compounds weaken the joint strength [4][5][6]. The most effective method to join Ti with other metal is explosive welding, which can produce different clad materials such as titaniumsteel clad materials, titanium-copper clad materials, and titanium-nickel clad materials [7][8][9]. Titanium-steel clad materials possess both titanium and steel advantages (high strength and toughness, reduce costs as well as high corrosion resistance).…”

The microstructure and properties of pure titanium (Ti)-carbon steel clad plate prepared using explosive welding were characterized. The bonding of the welding interface was inspected using C-scanning imaging technique. The microstructure and composition of the clad were characterized with optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Mechanical and corrosion properties of the clad plate were investigated using tensile test, shearing test, and potentiodynamic polarization measurement. The results show that the pure titanium and carbon steel plate are joined successfully without visible defects. The interface wave is uniform. SEM observation and EDS analyses show that some melt blocks distribute at the interface waves vortices. Hardness testes results show that after heat treating, the hardness values in the titanium layer of the clad plate are similar to the original titanium plate, whereas the values at carbon steel layer increase from the interface to 300 μm away. Tensile and shearing test results indicate that the mechanical properties of the clad meet the requirements of ASTM B898 standard. Corrosion test shows that the Ecorr of the clad plate is more positive, and icorr is 1 order of magnitude lower compared to carbon steel material, suggesting that the corrosion resistance of clad plate is better than that of carbon steel material. These results suggest that the clad plate has good bonding quality and properties to meet the processing requirement and can be safely applicable in the petrochemical field.

“…Explosive welding is noted for its capability of offering high strength bonding and cladding metals that are unweldable or are difficult to weld by other methods. It has been developed as a promising way to clad dissimilar materials [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Thus, some attempts have been made to clad other materials on Mg alloys by explosive welding.…”

In this paper, the microstructure and properties of a Ti/Mg alloy clad plate manufactured by explosive welding were studied. The bonding interface was inspected by ultrasonic examination (US). The microstructure and the composition of the clad were characterized by OM and SEM. Properties were inspected by tensile test, shearing test, microhardness test and electrochemical corrosion. The results showed that the bonding interface of the clad plate was made up of straight areas and wavy areas. In straight areas, element diffusion occurred across the bonding interface. Additionally, in wavy areas, a melting zone occurred in the Mg alloy layer near to the bonding interface. Lots of light particles embedded on the melting zone. Tensile test results were comparable with the Ti sheet and the ultimate tensile strength of the clad plate demonstrated an 18% increase. The shearing strength of the clad plate was about 68–87 MPa. The microhardness of the clad plate was higher than that of the original sheets from the interface to 300 μm away. At over 300 μm, the microhardness of the clad plate decreased and approached the original sheets. Compared with the straight area, the hardness of the Mg alloy layer in the wavy area close to the interface increased by 12%. Corrosion results showed that the corrosion potential (Ecorr) absolute value of the clad plate increased by 24%, and the corrosion current density (icorr) value was 4 orders of magnitude lower, compared with the Mg alloy sheet. It was clear that the corrosion resistance of the clad plate was higher than that of the Mg alloy sheet. Cladding Mg alloy and Ti by explosive welding would improve the industrial applications of magnesium materials.

“…Optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and numerical simulation can be used to study their formation and evolution. Previous studies have found that collision produces molten metal flow, mixing and element diffusion, which is an important cause of the formation of molten blocks [5,10]. This high temperature and diffusion results in metallurgical bonding of the composite plate [12], at the same time, element diffusion is beneficial to the bonding strength of composite plates [11].…”

In order to study the interface characteristics and microstructure formation of Ti-Al composite plate, explosive welding was carried out with TA2 titanium as the fly plate and 5083 aluminums as the base plate. Optical microscope and electron microscope were used to analyze the microstructure of intermetallic compounds. SPH method was used to simulate the welding process of composite plates. The formation conditions and initial defects of intermetallic compounds were analyzed. The results show that most of the melted metal in the wave-front stays in the wave-waist region, and there was a relative velocity difference between the vortex and the titanium tissue, which led to the existence of small pieces of fragmentation. The outer layer of the vortex had higher velocity than the inner layer. The formation of Ti 3 Al, its antioxidant capacity wound lead to the formation of cracks. The temperature of outer vortex was higher than that of inner vortex, and the vortex has a transition layer of 5 μm, which is thinner than the transition layer of 8 μm between cladding plate and substrate. The jet was mostly composed of aluminum metal, and the interface jet velocity reaches 3000 m•s -1 and the interface temperature reaches up to 2100 K. Compared with the molten metal in the wave-back vortex, the jet temperature at the interface was higher, resulting in a thicker transition layer at the bonding surface. The residual stress at the interface wound cause the density of the material to increase.
