Abstract
CuNi interlayers varying with different Ni contents were used to bond W with reduced activation ferritic/martensitic (RAFM) steel. The influence of Ni content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of W/CuNi/RAFM steel joints was investigated. The results showed that the well-bonded joints were obtained. Increasing the Ni content in the CuNi alloy interlayers enhanced interdiffusion at the interfaces of the W/CuNi/RAFM steel joints, thereby improving their mechanical properties. Specifically, incorporating an interlayer with 68 % Ni content resulted in a shear strength of up to 350 MPa for the joint. The fracture of the joints mainly occurred in the W substrate near the W/CuNi interface.
