Joining titanium with stainless steel can lighten the structure of numerous industrial applications. However, a vast disparity of thermal, physical, and chemical properties between these alloys leads to defects in conventional arc welding techniques, viz., brittle intermetallic compounds, pores, cracks, etc. Friction stir welding (FSW) is a renowned solid-state joining technology for creating dissimilar material joints producing visco-plastic material flow at the interface. The present investigation compares the intermetallic layer thickness and properties as a function of the thickness of the Cu interlayer sandwiched in lap joints. Macrostructural and microstructural characterizations were carried out to understand the localized microstructural evolution comprising intermetallic, grain refinement, defects, etc. Mechanical properties were also evaluated for prepared lap joints.

Abstract

Joining titanium with stainless steel can lighten the structure of numerous industrial applications. However, a vast disparity of thermal, physical, and chemical properties between these alloys leads to defects in conventional arc welding techniques, viz., brittle intermetallic compounds, pores, cracks, etc. Friction stir welding (FSW) is a renowned solid-state joining technology for creating dissimilar material joints producing visco-plastic material flow at the interface. The present investigation compares the intermetallic layer thickness and properties as a function of the thickness of the Cu interlayer sandwiched in lap joints. Macrostructural and microstructural characterizations were carried out to understand the localized microstructural evolution comprising intermetallic, grain refinement, defects, etc. Mechanical properties were also evaluated for prepared lap joints.
