The Cu/Al composites conductive head is widely used in hydrometallurgy as the core component of cathode plate. Its conductive properties directly affect the power consumption, and the bonding strength and corrosion resistance determine the conductive head service life. The Cu/Al conductive head prepared by explosion welding, cold pressure welding, and solid-liquid casting methods were investigated in this paper. The interface microstructure and compositions were examined by scanning electron microscope and X-ray energy dispersive spectrometry. The bonding strength, interface conductivity, and the corrosion resistance of three types of joints were characterized. The Cu/Al bonding interface produced by explosive welding presented a wavy-like morphology with typical defects and many of brittle compounds. A micro-interlocking effect was caused by the sawtooth structures on the cold pressure welding interface, and there was no typical metallurgical reaction on the interface. The Cu/Al bonding interface prepared by solid-liquid casting consisted mainly of an Al-Cu eutectic microstructure (Al2Cu+Al) and partial white slag inclusion. The thickness of the interface transition layer was about 200–250 µm, with defects such as holes, cracks, and unwelded areas. The conductivity, interfacial bonding strength, and corrosion resistance of the conductive head prepared by explosive welding were superior to the other two.

Bimetal of high-tin aluminum alloy and steel was fabricated by cold-rolling process; microstructure, bonding strength and bonding mechanism for bonding interface of the bimetal were investigated under cold-rolling and recrystallization annealing state, respectively. Experimental results indicate that tin phase of bimetal in cold-rolling state shows a belt type distribution, however, it, in recrystallization annealing state, is uniformly distributed just like some “isolated islands”. A well bonding interface, between layers of high–tin aluminum alloy and pure aluminum, can be obtained, and it is difficult to distinguish one layer from the other; but the interface, between layers of low-carbon steel back and pure aluminum, is clear and uneven. And meanwhile, bonding mechanism of bimetal interface, in cold-rolling state, is cold pressure welding and mechanical occluding, But it, in recrystallization annealing state, is cold pressure welding, mechanical occluding, and metallurgic bonding. After recrystallization annealing, at 350°C for 2h,the bonding strength of bimetal approaches to 92.4MPa, which is about 26% higher than that of cold-rolling state.

In order to study the explosive welding experimental fabrication technology of multi-layer dissimilar metal plates and the quality of bonding interface, three-layer steel/aluminum/steel composite plates with different thickness distributions were fabricated using the method of explosive welding when their total thicknesses remained same (total 5 mm). Then the stereomicroscope was adopted to investigate the shape of bonding interface and the formed mechanism was also analyzed. In addition, the micro-hardness (Vickers hardness, Hv) distribution of the composite plate in the thickness direction was studied by a low load Vickers hardness tester. The results show that the method of explosive welding can be used to fabricate three-layer steel/aluminum/steel dissimilar metal plates successfully. Meanwhile, wave bonding interface was formed between steel fly plate and aluminum middle plate, straight bonding interface was formed between aluminum middle plate and steel base plate. The maximum Hv value of welded plate appears at the bonding interface with high bonding strength. The bonding strength of both two kinds of welded interface was considered sufficient, which offers experimental support for the explosive welding of multi-layer plates.

T2 red copper plate and DT4C electrical pure iron plate were cladded by explosive welding. Microcosmic analysis and bonding strength of the bonding interface were also studied. Results indicate that the welded zone appears periodical wavy metallurgical interface and obvious element diffusion occurs in the interfacial zone. In addition, no separation happens after the bonding strength test and tension-shear test and the broken zone takes place in the T2 red copper part of the samples, indicating that the bonding strength of the welded interface can get no less than the strength of T2 red copper.

The behavior of an isothermal and non-reaction solid-liquid system can be model using a mathematical model based on the Mixtures’ Theory of Continuum Mechanics. The knowledge of the constitutive equations of this phenomenon, as pressure on the solids and medium permeability, is very important in the design and performance evaluation of the continuous thickeners or filters. In this work the batch sedimentation phenomena of a kaolin aqueous suspensions was investigated. The technique consists on measuring of the gamma rays attenuation when they cross the physical media as a function of the local concentration at several vertical positions in a reservoir. Using the experimental data and local concentration as a function of the attenuation curve, it is possible to determine the constitutive equations. The results were satisfactory, allowing simulations of this phenomenon for steady and transient regimes in future papers.

Joining of metals in explosive welding takes place as a result of their plastic deformation during a high speed collision and is usually accompanied by typical formation of waves at the interface. In welding aluminium, the weld boundary can also be straight if the speed of the contact point is νc is ≤ 1900 m/s. These welding conditions make it possible to prevent melting of the metal at the interface and increase at the same time its corrosion resistance. In this article, the effect of the dynamic collision angle on the special features of plastic flow of the metal in the vicinity of the contact boundary in welding sheets of AS5 aluminium is described.
