Abstract

Abstract Alloy 8009 is a rapidly solidified, dispersion strengthened Al–8·5Fe (wt-%) alloy designed for high temperature (up to 400°C) aerospace applications. Both fusion and solid state joining techniques were shown to produce bonds. Fusion techniques destroyed the base metal microstructure with primary Fe3Al, loss of solute, formation of larger aluminium grains, and the formation of grain boundary FeAl3 and intermetallics enriched with silicon and vanadium. Solid state friction stir welding did not cause a significant modification to the dispersoid population but there was a loss of solute to dispersoid/matrix interfaces.MST/3500
