Effect of Zn-coating type on intergranular Cu-penetration in steels during weld-brazing
Abstract
Weld-brazing has emerged as a promising alternative to fusion welding for joining Zn-coated advanced high strength steels (AHSSs) due to its lower heat input, reduced Zn burn-off, and elimination of defects like porosity and blowholes. Additionally, the weld-brazing process minimizes HAZ softening, a phenomenon that can affect joint strength. While weld-brazing can potentially eliminate the liquid metal embrittlement (LME) caused by the …
