Abstract
Diffusion bonds made in both the ferrite and austenite iron phases are compared with the predictions of a theoretical model [1, 2]. The initial formation of the bond is shown to be caused chiefly by surface diffusion along interfacial voids. Subsequent void closure occurs by other densifying mechanisms. The model is also used to successfully predict bonding in a low-alloy medium-carbon steel (En8). © 1984 Chapman and Hall Ltd.
