The structure and mechanical properties of gradient transition zones of the copper-nickel system formed by additive electron beam technology have been investigated. Pure copper and nickel alloy Ni80Cr20 were used for printing. The data obtained testify to the complex and heterogeneous nature of structure formation when printing both by single-wire method and using double-wire controlled feeding of material into the melt bath. In the samples, the formation of defects of different scale from local inhomogeneities of the structure to pores and cracks is possible. The mechanical properties of the structural gradient zone are at a sufficiently high level and depend on the ratio of the system components.

A comparative study of the mechanical properties, fracture mechanisms and hydrogen embrittlement peculiarities was carried out using the specimens of austenitic CrNi steel produced by two different methods: wire-feed electron beam additive manufacturing and conventional casting followed by solid-solution treatment. Hydrogen-induced reduction of ductility and the increase in the yield strength are observed in steel specimens produced by both methods. Despite hydrogen embrittlement index is comparable in them, the increase in the yield strength after hydrogen-charging is different: 25 MPa for cast steel and 175 MPa for additively manufactured steel. This difference is associated with the peculiarities of phase composition and phase distribution in steels produced by different methods.

Electron beam additive wire-feed deposition of Cu-7.5wt.%Al bronze on a stainless-steel substrate has been carried out at heat input levels 0.21, 0.255, and 0.3 kJ/mm. The microstructures formed at 0.21 kJ/mm were characterized by the presence of both zigzagged columnar and small equiaxed grains with 10% of Σ3 annealing twin grain boundaries. No equiaxed grains were found in samples obtained at 0.255 and 0.3 kJ/mm. The zigzagged columnar ones were only retained in samples obtained at 0.255 kJ/mm. The fraction of Σ3 boundaries reduced at higher heat input values to 7 and 4%, respectively. The maximum tensile strength was achieved on samples obtained with 0.21 kJ/mm as tested with a tensile axis perpendicular to the deposited wall’s height. More than 100% elongation-to-fracture was achieved when testing the samples obtained at 0.3 kJ/mm (as tested with a tensile axis coinciding with the wall’s height).

It is a challenge work for joining of Al to Cu by conventional fusion welding method. This study investigates butt joining of 6061 Al alloy to pure copper using cold metal transfer (CMT) process in asymmetrical V-groove configuration. The microstructure and mechanical properties of Al/Cu butt joints are revealed. The microstructure in the fusion zone mainly consists of α (Al) and Al2Cu phase accompanied with Si phase. The two-layer intermetallic compound (IMC) layers are exhibited at the Al/Cu interface. The first IMC layer near the copper is a thin layer in thickness of less than 5 μm. The second IMC layer is in the irregular non-linear and zigzag shape with some particles dispersed at the boundaries. XRD analysis shows that the IMCs in the joints mainly contain Al2Cu, AlCu, Al3Cu4 and Al4Cu9 phase. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of the joints could reach 108 MPa. The fracture paths of the joints are along the Al/Cu interface. The pores and IMCs are main factors to determine the strength of the joints. Since the pores are at the Al/Cu interface, the UTS of the joint is lowered at low wire feed rate. The joints break along the Al/Cu interface due to the brittle IMC layer at high wire feed rate. It can be achieved Al/Cu butt joints with sufficient strength in asymmetrical V-groove configuration.

The structure and properties of conically shaped products made of CuCr1 chrome bronze obtained by wire-feed electron beam additive technology have been investigated. The studies show that the organization of the structure in the samples fully corresponds to the peculiarities of the printing process and heat removal from the samples. The structure is represented by large grains elongated in the direction of heat removal. Chromium in the samples is mainly localized in the form of particles located between the dendrite arms. Near the substrate, intense mixing of the bronze with the substrate material (steel 321) is observed. The mechanical properties of the conical and cylindrical sample parts material are at a fairly close level. The samples are characterized by low values of yield strength, low values of tensile strength and high plasticity. Near the substrate, the mechanical properties of the specimens increase.
