Mixed powders of 14A1-2Ni-3CuO were used as the SHS inter- layer, and differential thermal analysis test of A1-Ni-CuO interlayer was conducted to analyze the exothermic char- acteristic. Sound joint was got by SHS joining under the conditions of 600 ℃, 30 min, and 5 MPa. The joint was characterized by scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, energy dispersive spectroscopy （EDS）, and X-ray diffrac- tion （XRD）. TiA13 and NiA13 are, respectively, formed in the TiA1/interlayer and Cf/A1/interlayer interfaces. Reac- tion products of Ni2Al3, NiAl3, A1203, and Cu were observed in the interlayer. And the formation mechanism of SHS joining was investigated.展开更多
