Effect of microstructure aspects on mechanical properties of nanoparticle-assisted transient liquid phase (NP-TLP) joints for AZ31 alloy

Transient liquid phase bonding of ZK60 magnesium alloy using graphene nanoplatelets

“…In specimens bonded with Al and GNPs at 580°C, the diffusion was suppressed along with the interface, resulting in a bond of width ∼10 µm (Figure 2(c)), which is still narrow compared to the reported in the recent study conducted by Dehnavi and Bakhtiari [22]. However, the width of the joint expanded with the increase in bonding temperature [18].…”

Microstructure and mechanical properties of TLP-bonded 9CrMoCoB heat-resistant steel with Ni–Cr–B interlayer

“…Transient liquid phase (TLP) bonding has the advantages of diffusion welding and brazing technologies [17,18], and has been successfully applied to join the same [19][20][21][22][23][24] or dissimilar metals [25,26]. The melting temperature of filler metal is lower than that of the matrix due to the addition of elements, such as B, P, and Si.…”

“…With the massive diffusion of B, P, and Si atoms in the liquid filler to the matrix, the melting point at the interface increases. Isothermal solidification starts when the liquidus reaches the holding temperature [23][24][25]. When isothermal solidification is completed, a joint with comparable mechanical properties to the matrix is obtained [21,22].…”
