摘要
The lamellar layer of intermetallic compounds(IMCs)was adversely affected the performance of welding-brazing joints in Al/steel dissimilar metals.In this study,a short fiber-like surface morphology was fabricated on the butt surface of Q235 steel via laser.The interaction behavior between the short fibers and the molten pool was captured using a high-speed camera.Laser-arc hybrid welding-brazing was then employed to join Al(6061-T6)to the steel.This process successfully created a short fiber-like interface structure at the joint.The relationship between microstructure and mechanical properties was investigated,compared with Al/bare steel(ABS)joint.The research results indicated that the IMCs layer consisted of FeAl_(3)and Fe_(2)Al_(5).The interface strength of the Al/short fiber-like surface structural steel(ASFSSS)joint reached 153.2 MPa,an 82.2%increase compared to the ABS joint,which reached 84.1 MPa.When the ASFSSS joints without the reinforcement were bent to 58.2°and 25.2°in the longitudinal and transverse direction,respectively,they remained intact.However,cracks were discovered when the bending angle of the ABS reached 39.1°and 0°in the two directions.Numerical simulation revealed that the short fiber-like interface structure significantly reduced residual stress and improved the stress distribution in the weld,thereby enhancing the strength and toughness of Al/steel dissimilar joints.The crack propagation path in the ASFSSS joint was deflected into the weld when it encountered short fibers,and the fracture morphology presented the characteristic of ductile-brittle mixed fracture.
