Abstract

The morphology, elemental distribution, and phase analysis of the bonding interface were investigated by means of SEM, EDS, and XRD to evaluate the interface bonding properties of Al/316LSS clad metal prepared by explosive welding method. Furthermore, the micro-hardness and bending properties were also investigated. The results indicated that the linear and wavy bonding interfaces coexisted and intermetallic phases were present in the local interfacial zone. Moreover, the micro-hardness value at the bonding interface with intermetallic phases was higher than that at the interface without any intermetallic phases. In addition, bulk metal compounds could easily lead to the generation of micro-cracks during the bending forming process.
