Abstract
Al has more significance in electrical and electronic applications like solar energy collectors or light-weight electric motors and actuators. It combines comparably good thermal and electrical properties with an attractive price and low material weight. However, the main difficulty for a widespread use of Al is the lack of a reliable joining process to connect it with Cu. The problems during welding of Cu and Al are caused by a large misalignment in physical properties and even more, a poor metallurgical affinity of both materials and therefore high crack sensitivity and formation of brittle intermetallic phases during fusion welding.
