Microstructure characteristics and mechanical properties of cold metal transfer welding Mg/Al dissimilar metals
Highlights ► Cold metal transfer welding with low heat input was used to weld. ► Pure copper welding wire (HS201) as filler metal. ► The bonding strength of the joint was 34.7MPa. ► The reason for fracture was obtained.
Abstract AZ31B Mg alloy and 6061 Al alloy were joined by using cold metal transfer (CMT) welding with pure copper (HS201) as the filler metal. The microstructure of Mg/Al CMT weld joint was studied by means of Optical Microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), X-ray Diffraction (XRD). Results showed that dissimilar metals of Mg/Al could be successfully joined by CMT under proper processing parameters. The bonding strength of the joint was 34.7MPa. A variety of Al–Cu intermetallic compounds, i.e. AlCu, CuAl2, Cu9Al4, presented in the fusion zone of Al side, and Cu based solid solution was generated in weld zone, while Cu2Mg and Al–Cu–Mg ternary eutectic structure was formed in the fusion zone of Mg side. The micro-hardness in the both sides of fusion zones increased sharply, which were 362HV in Mg side and 260HV in Al side. The joint was brittle fractured in the intermetallic compound layer of the fusion zone of Mg side, where plenty of Cu2Mg intermetallic compounds were distributed continuously.
