ABSTRACT:
A solid state joint and a method of making a solid state joint between aluminum or magnesium alloys is provided. The joint consists of a diffusion bond with unmelted pieces of a fragmented foil dispersed along the diffusion bond. The joint is made by placing a friable foil between the parts being joined and pressing the parts together to crack the foil. The assembly is then heated and pressed together for a sufficient time, temperature, and pressure to cause the aluminum or magnesium alloy to flow into the cracks, across the foil, and then to diffusion bond together. The foil is made from a material which is harder than the alloy being joined and which will not melt at the bonding temperature.
