Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper presents a study of the formation characteristics and properties of an explosion-welded steel – aluminum composite with a chromium layer diffusion barrier. The identified characteristics of joint formation allowed us to determine the weldability range of the steel – aluminum composite with a diffusion barrier and define the optimal ranges of the explosion welding parameters. The chromium layer thickness, impact velocity, and plastic deformation energy significantly affect the magnitude and characteristics of plastic deformation during explosion welding of the steel – aluminum composite with a diffusion barrier. Thus, the steel – aluminum composite with a diffusion barrier has a higher strength and better quality than the aluminum – steel bimetal.
