“…[1] Many of the studies presented in the literature are focused specifically on the EXW process. As confirmed by various attempts, the joining of flat surfaces [6][7][8][9] or tubes [10][11][12] can be easily performed by this method.

The microstructure and phase composition of Al/Ti/Al interfaces with respect to their localization were investigated. An aluminum-flyer plate exhibited finer grains located close to the upper interface than those present within the aluminum-base plate. The same tendency, but with a higher number of twins, was observed for titanium. Good quality bonding with a wavy shape and four intermetallic phases, namely, TiAl 3 , TiAl, TiAl 2 , and Ti 3 Al, was only obtained at the interface closer to the explosive material. The other interface was planar with three intermetallic compounds, excluding the metastable TiAl 2 phase. As a result of a 100-hour annealing at 903 K (630°C), an Al/TiAl 3 /Ti/TiAl 3 /Al sandwich was manufactured, formed with single crystalline Al layers. A substantial difference between the intermetallic layer thicknesses was measured, with 235.3 and 167.4 lm obtained for the layers corresponding to the upper and lower interfaces, respectively. An examination by transmission electron microscopy of a thin foil taken from the interface area after a 1-hour annealing at 825 K (552°C) showed a mixture of randomly located TiAl 3 grains within the aluminum. Finally, the hardness results were correlated with the microstructural changes across the samples.

Abstract:In this paper, a 2D numerical model that is more physically realistic was established to simulate the complete process of Ti/Al explosive welding. Basing on the ANSYS/AUTODYN software package, the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) and arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) were used for running this simulation. The numerical model can capture the typical physics in the explosive welding process, including the expansion of explosives, flyer plate bending, the impact of metal plates, jetting, and the wavy interface. The variable physical parameters during the explosive welding process were discussed. Most parts of the jet originated from the aluminum plate. According to the model, the jet velocity reached 7402 m/s. The pressure at the detonation point was too small to make the two plates to bond. The pressure could reach an order of magnitude of 10 7 kPa when the detonation energy tended to be stable and was far more than the yield strength of both materials, which resulted in an obvious narrow region of plastic strain emerging close to the collision zone. The signs of shear stresses between the two plates were the opposite. The interface morphology changed from straight to wave along the propagation of the detonation wave in the simulation, which was consistent with the experimental results.

This study explores the feasibility of explosive welding to join dissimilar materials: aluminum (JIS A1050‐H24) and two cast iron types (JIS G 5501 and JIS G 5502), which are challenging to weld due to the presence of graphite in the cast iron. Further, the impact of explosive thickness (28, 38, and 47 mm) on weld quality is investigated, considering microstructure and mechanical behavior. Increasing explosive thickness correlates with a thicker local melted zone. Remarkably, in investigations, a novel morphology that diverges from conventional patterns is observed. The weld interface of explosively bonded materials exhibits anchor formation, a unique interlocking structure. These anchors play a significant role in establishing a robust mechanism between bonded surfaces. JIS A1050‐H24 shows minimal hardness variation, while cast iron exhibits significant variations with increased explosive thickness. Tensile shear tests showcase robust clad plate strength, with fractures primarily in JIS A1050‐H24 regions instead of at the interface. The highest tensile shear strength is achieved with an explosive thickness of 38 mm. Overall, explosive welding of aluminum with cast iron creates a strong, durable, and lightweight material with enhanced performance characteristics, making it promising for diverse industrial applications due to its outstanding properties.
