Abstract

The cladding of 2826 MB amorphous ribbons were made onto mild steel (AISI 1015) substrates. Parallel set-ups (with and without the use of impactor plates) with 1600-6600 m/s welding velocities were used. Although bonding was achieved in most cases, severe shearing of the amorphous ribbons took place. The best results were obtained with waveless interfaces with a low kinetic energy deposition and tailoring of the attenuation of the rarefaction wave induced by the nature of the anvil. The weld interface was observed with an optical microscope. X-ray diffraction analysis was used to elucidate the onset of crystallinity introduced by the explosive pulse.
