DIFFUSION BONDING OF TITANIUM ALLOYS

Abstract

The program attempts to develop an understanding of the diffusion bonding of titanium alloys; in particular, the alloy Ti-6Al-4V. The accomplishments of the third quarter of the program are as follows: A series of tensile and bend tests has been completed. These tests showed trends which were in reasonable agreement with the shear tests performed during the second quarter. Additional shear tests have been performed to extend the range of variables to greater pressures and shorter bonding times than those reported for the second quarter. Examination of bond line photomicrographs indicates a correlation between bonded length and relative tensile strength. This correlation may find practical use in estimating bond quality.
