Abstract
Solid state (diffusion) bonds have been developed in AA 7475E sheet material using different regimes of bonding temperature, pressure, and time. The bonds produced have exhibited shear strengths in the range 30–150 MN m−2 and have been found to be capable of withstanding peel during a slow high-temperature superplastic forming operation. However, the bonds formed under any one set of bonding conditions showed an extremely wide variation in both shear strength and shear fracture mode. The source of this wide variation has not yet been identified. © 1987 The Institute of Metals.
