Abstract
The effect of quenching and aging on the microstructure and mechanical properties of welded joints obtained by laser welding of titanium alloy Grade 2 and aluminum alloy 2024 is studied. Microstructural analysis of the welded joints is carried out using light and scanning electron microscopes. The samples are tested on a slice. It is shown that during heat treatment, the columnar heat-affected zone of aluminum undergoes a significant change, in which the grain width increases from 5 – 7 to 20 – 40 μm, and the length from 30 – 100 to 100 – 200 μm. The shear strength of the welded joint after a heat treatment increases from 120 to 195 MPa, and the microhardness of the columnar heat-affected zone changes from 100 – 111 HV to 145 – 161 HV. The effect of the heat treatment on the distribution of chemical elements in the weld metal is not revealed, whereas the columnar heat-affected zone contains presumably a hardening Al2Cu phase.
