Introduction to Solid State Welding

History of solid state welding dates back to very ancient time.

Gold was hammered together by the ancients earlier than 1000 B.C.

The iron framework of the Colossus of Rhodes was forge welded in 280 B.C.

Versatility of fusion welding eclipsed solid state welding in the first half of the 20th century.

Solid state welding experienced a rebirth in the 60’s and 70’s, especially in the field of micro-electronics.

Eliminates liquid phases. Makes the joining of many dissimilar metal

combinations possible. Can be applied at different temperatures and under

different stresses At high temperature, where the atomic interaction range is

relatively large and solubility of contaminants is high, parts can be joined together with less deformation.

At low temperature, where the atomic interaction range is relatively small and solubility of contaminants is low, more stress is needed to join two parts together and thus more deformation is expected.

Advantages of Solid State Welding

Introduction

1998/SSW1/41/11

Surface preparation can be necessary. Joint design is limited. Elaborate and expensive equipment may be

required. Non-destructive inspection is very limited.

Disadvantages of Solid State Welding

Introduction

1998/SSW1/41/12

Both similar and dissimilar metals can be welded. Similar metal welds include:

Titanium-to-titanium alloy (aircraft rivets) by friction welding.

Ultrasonic welding of fine aluminum wire to aluminum metallization in microelectronics.

Examples of dissimilar metal includes Aluminum to steel, titanium to aluminum, and titanium to

stainless steel (tubular transition joint) by explosion welding.

Basic Principles

In solid state welding, joining of two surfaces takes place by atomic bonding between the atoms on the surfaces.

Introduction

1998/SSW1/41/18

There are two major types of atomic bonds Primary bonds Secondary bonds

Primary bonds are much stronger than secondary bonds.

Atomic Bonds

Primary Bonding

Primary bonds include three types: Ionic bonds Covalent bonds Metallic bonds

Introduction

Ionic Bonding

Bonding takes place between metallic and nonmetallic elements.

Metallic atoms give up valence electrons to nonmetallic atoms.

Examples : NaCl, MgO, CaCl2.

Covalent Bonding

Bonding between two atoms takes place by cooperative sharing of electrons.

Examples: Gas - N2, O2, CH4.

Solid - carbon (diamond), silicon, germanium.

Metallic Bonding

Valence electrons are not bound to any particular atom and are free to drift throughout the metal.

Remaining non-valence electrons and atomic nuclei form ion cores.

Free electrons act as a glue to hold the ion cores together.

Secondary Bonding Van der Waals bonds ( Ar, Kr, Ne). Polar molecule-induced dipole bonds

(HCl, HF). Hydrogen bonds ( H2O, NH3). Bond energy only about 1/10 of

primary bonds. Can cause adhesion of contaminants

to metal surfaces.

by W.D. Callister, John Wiley & Sons, 1985

Adhesion of metal surfaces occurs by inter-atomic forces. For this to happen, the two mating surfaces must be brought together within a very close distance. For most metals, this distance is within a range of approximately 10 angstroms (A).

The potential energy of atoms at the free surface is higher than that of atoms within the bulk of the solid.

The energy per unit area possessed by atoms near the free surface constitutes the free surface energy.

The average surface atom has about half the bonding energy of an interior atom.
