Explosive welding is a solid-state process used for the metallurgical joining of two or more dissimilar metals. In this process, the energy of controlled detonation is utilized to accelerate one metal plate into another. As a result of the collision, an atomic bond is formed. This paper describes a study of a laminate based on the AZ31 magnesium alloy, the AA1050 aluminum alloy and the AA2519 aluminum alloy. The test material was obtained using the method of explosive welding in a direct configuration AZ31/AA2519, with the intermediate layer made of AA1050 alloy previously rolled on the AA2519. The microstructure of the bonds was evaluated using scanning electron (SEM) and transmission electron microscopes with the SAED technique, while the chemical composition was assessed using energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The mechanical properties were examined with mini-specimen tensile tests and microhardness measurements. Between the joined aluminum alloys, an oxide layer was observed. It was also reported that the obtained joint is free of brittle intermetallic phases.Eksplozijsko varjenje je proces spajanja v trdnem stanju, ki se uporablja za metalur{ko spajanje dveh ali ve~razli~nih kovin ali zlitin. V tem procesu se izkori{~a energija kontrolirane detonacije za pospe{eno spajanje ene kovinske plo{~e z drugo. Kot rezultat izvedene detonacije je nastanek atomske vezi med obema materialoma. Avtorji so raziskovali nastanek laminata med Mg zlitino AZ31 ter Al zlitinama AA1050 in AA2519. Testni material so izdelali z metodo eksplozijskega varjenja v direktni konfiguraciji AZ31/AA2519 z vmesno plastjo, narejeno iz zlitine AA1050, ki je bila predhodno navaljana na zlitino AA2519. Mikrostrukturo eksplozijskega spoja so okarakterizirali z vrsti~nim elektronskim mikroskopom (SEM) in presevnim elektronskim mikroskopom, opremljenim s tehniko SAED, medtem ko je bila mikrokemijska analiza izvr{ena z energijsko disperzijsko spektroskopijo (EDS). Za dolo~itev mehanskih lastnosti so izdelali miniaturne natezne preizku{ance. Dolo~ili so tudi mikrotrdoto izdelanih spojev. Na meji spoja Al zlitin so opazili oksidno plast. Poro~ajo tudi, da na izdelanem spoju ni opaziti krhkih intermetalnih faz. Klju~ne besede: eksplozijsko varjenje, mikrostruktura, AZ31, AA2519
