Friction-stir welding of a beryllium-aluminum powder metallurgy alloy
Source abstract
Abstract
The friction-stir welding of a 62 Be-38 Al composite consisting of a Be phase in a continuous Al matrix produced a recrystallized, refined weld zone microstructure with intermixed, equiaxed grains of Be and Al, which increased in hardness by 43 percent from the base metal hardness. Like other friction-stir weld processes, there was no melting and no apparent release of airborne Be or BeO, rendering the process environmentally and technically attractive.
