In this paper, the interface behavior in Liquid Phase Impact Diffusion Welding (LPIDW) of Aluminum Matrix Composite has been studied. Results show that by LPI diffusion welding, the interface state between reinforcement (SiC particle) and matrix is prominent, the harmful microstructure or brittle phase can be restrained from the welded joint. Moreover, dislocation density in both matrix and interface are higher than that of parent composite, the dislocation entwists each other intensively resulted in welding the composite successfully.

In this paper, the microstructure and mechanical property of the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu aluminum matrix composite reinforced by SiC particles with the contents of 2.5, 4.5, and 6.5wt% through vacuum casting are studied. The homogenization treatment was conducted at 465°C heat insulation for 24h. The purpose of this study is to analyze hot extrusion influence on the microstructure and hardness of the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu aluminum matrix composite. SiCp under pre-processing possesses good wetability with the analysis of Laser Particle Sizer and XRD. Metallurgical microscope, XRD, SEM and EDS is applied to analyze the microstructure of the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu aluminum matrix composite. It has proved that the hot extrusion can effectively improve the homogenization of SiCp and dissolve the second rough phases to reinforce the dispersal of CuAl2and MgZn2phase. The hardness of Al/SiCp composite rises as the increase of the SiCp content. It is shown that when the SiCp content is above 5%, its hardness obviously reinforced as well as that of the Al/SiCp composite.

Transient liquid-phase(TLP) bonding of SiC particle reinforced aluminum matrix composite(SiCp/Al MMCs) ,using Cu film, Cu foil, Ni foil and Cu/Ni/Cu multilayer foil interlayer, was investigated. The effect of surface status, interlayer species and bolding time on bonding microstructure and properties were also estimated by metallographic microscope, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X ray diffraction and tensile testing machine. The results show that adding holding time can improve shear strength of joint. Better strength of joint can be obtained due to without the effect of oxide with Cu film as interlayer, when bonding at 853K for 120min under 2MPa pressure, the shear strength of bonded joints can obtain 169.1MPa, about 81.7 percentage of the strength of base material. Best strength of joint can be obtained with Cu/Ni/Cu multilayer foil as interlayer, when bonding at 923K for 120min under 2MPa pressure, the of bonded joints can obtain 189.6MPa, about 84.6 percentage of the strength of base material.
