Thermite multilayered films have the potential to be used as local high intensity heat sources
for a variety of applications. Improving the ability of researchers to more rapidly develop …

Interconnected individual battery cells of lithium batteries are unavoidably involved in joining
in parallel to improve the battery capacity. Due to the advantage of the small joint area and …

A series of diffusion bonding tests are conducted on a high Nb containing TiAl alloy with full
lamellar (FL) microstructure and the effect of interfacial recrystallization behavior on the …

This paper gives an historic perspective of the concept of “Interfacial Design” in joined (eg
soldered, brazed, diffusion bonded) assemblies. During the course of history, the awareness …

A high-speed electrothermography approach is applied to investigate the mechanism and
kinetics for nanostructured Al/Ni foils. Application of the Kolmogorov–Johnson–Mehl–Avrami …

We investigated the peculiarities of the combustion wave propagation as well as the
structure and phase formation in bi-layered metal powder compacts of (Ti− Al)/(Ni− Al), with …

In this study, a free-standing Al/Ni exothermic multilayer is fabricated and used as a heat
source for reactive soldering, instead of an Al/Ni film directly deposited on the solder layer …

A self-propagating reaction achieved by initiating an Al/Ni reactive multilayer foil can
generate significant heat. The interdiffusion rate of the reactants plays an important role in …

Abstract The Ti and Ni alternating layers were deposited onto the base materials by
magnetron sputtering. Ti/Ni multilayers with different stoichiometries of Ti and Ni were …

In order to lower the firing voltage, an energetic Al/Ni exploding foil (Al/Ni-EF) with enhanced
energy efficiency and plasma density was prepared in this study, to realize the direct ignition …
