To meet the demand for efficient and reliable copper and aluminum (Cu/Al) joints in refrigeration and electric power industries, interfacial reactions in 3003 Al/T2 Cu and 1035 Al/T2 Cu joints brazed by Zn-xAl (x ranged from 2–25 wt.%) filler metals and their effects on the mechanical properties of the joints were investigated. Microstructures and fracture surfaces were observed combining with composition analysis. For 3003 Al/Cu joints, bulk CuAl and CuAl2 intermetallic compound (IMC) formed in brazing seams, and a CuAl IMC layer formed at the Cu side interfaces. For 1035 Al/Cu joints, bulk CuAl2 IMC formed in brazing seams, and an Al4.2Cu3.2Zn0.7 IMC layer formed at the Cu side interfaces. For both kinds of joints, shear strength increased first, then decreased with the increasing Al content. The increase in shear strength was because Al promoted the formation of Cu-Al IMC, and caused dispersion strengthening. With the excessive Al content, however, the bulk IMC became coarse and the IMC layers at Cu side interfaces grew thick, causing the joint strength to decrease due to stress concentration. The strength of 3003 Al/Cu joints was always higher than that of 1035 Al/Cu, and their highest strength were achieved by Zn-12Al and Zn-15Al, respectively.

Titanium/steel clad material with excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance has important application in the oil, gas and ocean equipment. Due to the metallurgical incompatibility of titanium and steel, the mechanical properties of weld joint would completely lose when the brittle intermetallic phase existed in the fusion welding process. Therefore, the gas tungsten arced welding (TIG) + metal inert-gas welding (MIG) + metal active-gas welding (MAG) with pure vanadium and pure copper composite filler metals for welding connection experiment in this study was carried out on Ø610mm×(14+2)mm TA1/X65 titanium/steel clad pipe fitting (titanium cladding with thickness 2 mm, X65 pipeline steel with thickness 14 mm). The microstructure, interface element distribution, main phase, microhardness distribution on cross section and mechanical properties of butt welds were researched by using OM, XRD, EDS element mapping, microhardness and tensile tests. The result showed that the use of pure vanadium and pure copper composite filler metals for welding connection could effectively avoid the production of intermetallic compounds in the process of titanium/steel composite pipe fusion welding. The deposited metal of titanium, vanadium, copper and steel had obvious zoning, the inter-diffusion melting phenomenon was not severe, which is by using solid solution phases to transit zonings of deposited metal. The microstructure of titanium and vanadium transition interface were composed of titanium-based solid solution, the microstructure of vanadium and copper transition interface was composed of vanadium-based solid solution, and the microstructure of copper and steel transition interface were composed of copper-based solid solution. The transition interface had no porosity, crack and other defects. The tensile strength of the weld was 546MPa, which is mainly contributed by the carbon steel layer. With pure vanadium and pure copper as transition filler metal for the welding connection TA1/X65 clad pipe was successfully realized by TIG+MIG+MAG welding method, and the strength index reached the desired effect.

The current work is intended to study the influence of using ER4043 and ER5356 filler metals on mechanical properties of A6061 Al alloy welded joint made by gas metal arc welding process (GMAW). For this study, 12mm plates of these materials were joint using a type single V groove butt joints with four layers and five passes configurationof welded joints. The soundness of the quality of the weld joint was investigated by X-ray Ct-Scan technique. The joint made with the ER4043 presented an enhancement of mechanical properties. In comparisonwith the joint made with ER5356, Al A6061 with ER4043 welded joint shows to have an advantage due to the formation of very fine grain and have uniformly distributed porosity in the weld region area.
