Microstructure and mechanical behaviour of aluminium-carbon steel and aluminium-stainless steel clads produced with an aluminium interlayer

Resumo(s)
The influence of an interlayer on the microstructure and the mechanical behaviour of aluminium‑carbon steel
and aluminium-stainless steel clads produced by explosive welding was studied. Different series of welds were
produced both with and without an aluminium interlayer, testing different welding parameters. The combination
of aluminium to carbon steel presented a better weldability than aluminium to stainless steel. For both
couples, low-velocity welds presented the best microstructure and mechanical strength. The mechanical tests
showed that the aluminium to carbon steel joining did not benefit from the use of the interlayer. A joint with
good interfacial morphology and excellent tensile-shear properties was achieved by low-velocity direct welding,
with the fracture occurring outside the joining region. For the aluminium to stainless steel couple, the use of the
interlayer increased its weldability. However, the mechanical strength of the joint is restricted by the low
strength of the interlayer. The presence of intermetallic compounds at the weld interface, does not, by itself,
promote the poor-quality of the explosive weld. The way the interface accommodates and distributes these
intermetallics dictates the weld's quality.
