摘要
The microstructure and mechanical properties of resistance spot welded DP 600 advanced high strength steel and A5052 aluminum alloy joint were improved with 50 mu m Zn slice interlayer. The results showed that the fusion zone (FZ) grain of A5052 was columnar crystal with rough pattern. The microstructure of FZ and the heat affected zone (HAZ) for DP 600 were coarse-lath martensite and ferrite-fine marten site, respectively. The intermetallic compound (IMC) in the interface region included Fe2Al5, Fe4Al13 and Fe11Zn40. The main IMC was present in winding pattern, which could be responsible for the improvement of mechanical properties. The tensile-shear load reached to a maximum value (7.06 kN), increased by 28% as compared to the case without Zn slice interlayer. The obvious plastic deformation took place prior to fracture, and the fracture exhibited plug failure (PF) mode rather than interfacial failure (IF) mode. Many dimples were found on the fracture surface. (C) 2017 The Society of Manufacturing Engineers. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
