“…For example, it is well known that considerably higher hardness occurs at the interface between Al and Mg alloys by the generation of brittle Al-Mg intermetallic compounds (IMCs), resulting in catastrophic debonding or low joint strength [12,13]. In order to improve bonding strength by retarding or suppressing the development of Al 3 Mg 2 and Al 12 Mg 17 binary IMCs at the interface, the use of interlayer consisting of Zn, Cu, or Ni between the Al and Mg alloys during the solid-state diffusion bonding process has been reported [14,15]. However, from an economic point of view, in terms of process time and temperature, inserting a high-purity metal foil between Al and Mg alloys is not favorable, especially with the wide-width roll-bonding process.…”
