The Liquid Fraction of ZA27 Zinc Alloy from TLP Diffusion Bonding Affecting Mechanical Properties and Microstructural Characterizations of SSC-ADC12 Aluminum Alloy

Abstract:

This work investigated liquid fraction in ZA27 zinc alloy interlayered with SSC-ADC12 aluminum alloy workpieces for Transient Liquid Phase (TLP) diffusion bonding. The results clearly indicated that liquid fraction had a necessary influence on TLP diffusion bonding. In other words, the high liquid fraction and bonding time tends to produce excellent bond strength. The maximum bond strength at 27.21 MPa was from 100% liquid fraction and 90 min from bonding time. The hardness increased by approximately 23.36% comparing to SSC-ADC12 aluminum alloy and by 11.18% comparing to the ZA27 zinc alloy. The microstructure was homogeneous in the bond line and formed to MgZn₂ and CuZn₄ intermetallic compound under Scanning Electron Microscope. According to Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometer analysis, Zn atoms had the ability to move about 4.381 mm from the bond line and the elements' uniform distribution.
