Abstract
The [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] cermet to 40Cr steel joint was conducted by liquid phase diffusion bonding under the auxiliary pulse current and using 73Cu–27Ti amorphous foil/Cu foil/72Ag–28Cu foil sandwich foils as the interlayer. The effect of holding time and duty ratio of the pulse current on interfacial structure at the [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] cermet side and joint strength were studied. The results showed that the longer bonding time can improve the melting of Cu–Ti foil and the dissolution of Cu interlayer to obtain a higher joint strength. The interfacial structure was composed of the TiCu compounds and Cu solid solution at the cermet side, and [Formula: see text] compounds and Cu solid solution at the Cu interlayer side. The auxiliary pulse current was beneficial to reach a higher joint strength in a shorter holding time. A higher duty ratio would accelerate the dissolution and reaction of cermet to the interlayer, but continuous increase on the duty ratio would result in the over dissolution of cermet into the interface to produce the Ti(C, N) and [Formula: see text] ceramic particles and the decrease on the joint strength.
