Abstract

Advanced aluminium and titanium alloys, metal matrix composites (MMC's) and intermetallic compounds are of considerable interest to the aerospace industry. These materials offer significant mechanical improvements over many conventional materials. Appropriate joining technologies are being developed to utilise the advantages these materials offer in aerospace applications. Diffusion bonding offers considerable potential as a joining process. This keynote paper will review diffusion bonding with reference to these advanced metallic systems.
