Definitions

  • a thin cladding metal layer is bonded on a metal base by adhering the cladding layer to a supporting plate, supporting the resulting composite plate with the cladding layer spaced from, facing and in substantially parallel relationship to the base, placing a detonating explosive on the exposed surface of the supporting plate, and initiating the explosive.
  • the present invention relates to a novel process for bonding together two or more metals by explosive pressure to form a multilayered body and in particular for explosive bonding of a thin layer of a metal to a surface of a base metal and to novel articles of manufacture which are produced by this process.
  • One of the methods for bonding together two metals to fornta composite metal is the-so-called explosive bonding method which makes use of the blast force of a detonating explosive.
  • two metal plates to be bonded together are spaced parallel or somewhat inclined to each other and an explosive layer is provided on one or both of the outer surfaces. Initiation of the explosive drives both plates into high-speed mutual collision, with the result that the two metals are bonded to each other. This is said to be due to the fact that both metals are liquefied and fused together at the impact point or that a jet produced out of the oxidized surface layers of both metals activates the surface layers, whose atomic attraction serves for bonding of the plates.
  • placing an explosive in direct contact with a metal may cause explosion shock to damage the metal surface, so that a layer of buffer material such as rubber sheet or water is provided between the explosive and the metal.
  • An advantage of the explosive bonding process as mentioned above is to make it possible to obtain a clad metal which is stronger in bonding force and more difficult to separate than the metallic composites produced by conventional plating methods, rolling process, and so forth. Nevertheless, the prior explosive bonding process has such a disadvantage as the application of so thin a metal sheet as, for example, less than 100 microns and especially below 25 microns is not practical in the following respect:
  • the stiffness of the cladding metal is utilized to maintain the space, while the stiffness is smaller the thinner the metal sheet, so that, as the metal thickness lessens, the number of supports must be increased accordingly, thus making it impossible to obtain practical composite articles.
  • both metals are liquefied where they collide with each other, and the surfaces turn into a liquid stream; therefore a thin cladding metal sheet is blown off with the jet because of the small strength of the whole Sheet, with the frequent result that the metal sheet has no original shape left, and this fact also constitutes an obstacle to the practical application of said process with a very thin cladding metal.
  • the conventional methods for coating a metal surface with the thin layer of another metal are such as hot dip coating, osmotic plating, electroplating, vacuum plating, and metal spraying.
  • hot dip coating osmotic plating
  • electroplating electroplating
  • vacuum plating vacuum plating
  • metal spraying metal spraying
  • any cautious pretreatment and deliberate operation fail to produce a coating having a strength necessary and sufficient for practical use.
  • a composite metal formed by plating a noble metal such as platinum, iridium, gold, or silver with an anticorrosion metal such as titanium, tantalum, or zirconium is easily separable.
  • An object of this invention is to provide an effective process for bonding an extremely thin layer of cladding metal to a surface of a base metal, which bonding has so far been impossible to perform.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide a composite multilayered system by simultaneous bonding of two extremely thin layers onto both surfaces of a base metal.
  • a still further object of this invention is the provision of clad metal systems wherein the cladding layer is nonpervious, uniform, and adherent, by a method that is convenient and economical.
  • a still further object of the invention is to provide unique clad assemblies from metals which heretofore could not be bonded together.
  • such a method as comprises adhering a thin layer of cladding metal to a surface of a supporting plate, supporting the thin layer parallel or slightly slanting to a surface of a metal to be clad (a base metal), said thin layer being spaced from the surface of said base metal, placing on the surface of said supporting plate or outer surface of said base metal a suitable detonating explosive and thereafter initiating said explosive layer.
  • the process embodying the present invention is better than the conventional explosive bonding process in the respect that such an extremely thin layer of cladding metal as below 25 microns in thickness in the state of being backed up by a supporting plate is to be bonded onto a base metal, the bonding thus improved being free from the aforesaid defects which arise along with the thinning of the layer of cladding metal.
  • the means for adhering a thin layer of cladding metal to a supporting plate may be chosen static force can be utilized, or else plating is employable.
  • plating various conventional methods are alternatively employable. No matter what plating method may be employed, it is important, when the process is to be applied to this invention, to provide a pretreatment for exfoliation to the surface of the base metal, except the case where the thin layer deposited by plating may be easily peeled off from the surface of the base metal; for example, where the base metal is titanium, tantalum, zirconium, or the like and the thin layer is a platinum group metal.
  • the pretreating method for peeling off the thin layer any suitable one of various known processes may be employed.
  • the supporting plate is torn off from the thin layer of cladding metal by the shock at the time of explosive bonding; however, in case the supporting plate does not come olf the thin layer after the end of explosion, and adequate means, such as dipping the laminate in a solvent that solves the binder used, or heat treatment, may be employed at will.
  • the supporting plate of this invention may be composed of one or more of the following materials: plates of metals such as any kind of steel (e.g., alloyed steel, special steel, mild steel, carbon steel, stainless steel), nonferrous metals (e.g., Cu, Al, Ni, Ti, Ta, Zr), and nonferrous alloys (e.g., Duralumin, brass, bronze); plates made of natural vegetable materials such as wood, veneer, ebonite, and fiberboard; and plates of synthetic fibers such as Bakelite, hard polyvinyl chloride, and acrylic resin. In short, any material will do in so far as it is more rigid than the thin layer of cladding metal, tough to some exexplosive to be consumed.
  • steel e.g., alloyed steel, special steel, mild steel, carbon steel, stainless steel
  • nonferrous metals e.g., Cu, Al, Ni, Ti, Ta, Zr
  • nonferrous alloys e.g., Duralumin, brass, bronze
  • the detonating explosive to be used may be almost any of common industrial explosives commercially available. And gelatine dynamites are to be used after being formed in plate so that the weight per unit area may meet the required value, while, as to powdery explosives such as ammonium nitrate dynamite and carlit, first the other materials needed for the bonding are arranged as specified, and then the explosive to be used is measured as much as required, mounted, and smoothed so as to be uniform in thickness and density, and thereafter initiated.
  • powdery explosives such as ammonium nitrate dynamite and carlit
  • penthrite may also be used singly or mixed with ammonium nitrate.
  • the content of penthrite should at least be 10% or more; otherwise, the explosive property is bad.
  • the content ranging from 30% to 70% is practically suitable.
  • penthrite may be mixed with starch, wood meal or a similar combustible substance in addition to ammonium nitrate, with the result that the explosive force increases.
  • the mixing of water by 1.5 to 3.5% of the whole weight lowers the density of the explosive, improving the explosive property and also facilitating the handling of the explosive.
  • compositions of industrial explosives which are applicable to this invention are shown tent, and safe from breakdown due to shock of detonain the following table.
  • NC Nitroeellulose
  • N itro compound dinitronaphthalene, dinltrotoluene, trlnitrotoluene, etc.
  • the supporting plate to be used in the present invention may be composed of one or more layers of one or more kinds of materials. It is also a matter of course that an adequate protecting layer like rubber plate may be provided between explosive layer and base metal in order to prevent the metal from being damaged by explosive shock.
  • the thickness of the supporting plate has only to have a value that ensures a rigidity necessary and sufiicient for keeping the cladding layer to be supported in the form of a flat plate, and accordingly varies depending upon the material of the supporting plate employed. However, in any of usual cases, a thickness of about 0.5 to 10 mm. is used, and especially a thickness of 1 to 3 mm. is practically optimum.
  • the metal layers must be spaced at least 0.5 mm. and supported parallel to each other. But the metal layers facing to each other at an intersectional angle of about one degree or less are permissible. The narrower the space, the harder the bonding usually, and accordingly the more is the quantity of the

  • FIGURE 2 shows a process for shifting a cladding layer to a base metal from a supporting plate which is plated with the cladding layer.
  • the bonding force by plating is weak, permitting easy exfoliation, while the bonding force by explosive bonding is very strong.
  • a cladding layer 1 is first deposited, by a conventional plating method, onto a proper supporting plate 4 which may be a metallic or nonmetallic plate, and then, together with the supporting plate 4, explosively attached to a base metal 2, the resulting assembly being a trilayered composite plate having the deposited cladding layer in the middle.
  • This sandwiched layer is more strongly bonded to the base metal '2 than to the supporting plate 4, so that, by tearing off the assembly, the intermediate cladding layer leaves the supporting plate, and thus the base metal 2 is clad with the thin metal layer 1, that is, the intended product is obtained.
  • supporting plate 4 plated with claddinglayer 1 is placed on a base block 8, and base metal 2 is supported above the cladding layer 1 deposited on supporting plate 4 by means of supports 5.
  • a detonating explosive 6 is located on base metal 2 and to be initiated by an electric detonator for the bonding intended.
  • the resulting composite is a S-Iayered assembly of base metal 2, cladding layers 1 and 1, and supporting plate 4 and -4', with the base metal sandwiched by the cladding layers. Since the bonding force by plating is not stronger than that by explosive bonding, the cladding layers are more strongly attached to base metal 2 than to supporting plates 4 and 4. Therefore, by ripping the supporting plates 4 and 4 off from the base metal 2, the cladding layers are separated from the supporting plates 4 and 4-, and base metal 2 clad with thin metal layers 1 and 1 are produced as intended.

  • the resulting composite plate is an assembly of supporting plate 4, cladding layers 1 and 1' and base metals 2 and 2', the supporting plate being interposed between cladding layers 1 and 1'. Since the bonding force by plating is weaker than that by explosive bonding, the cladding layers are more firmly bonded to the base metals than to the supporting plate. Hence, by trying to separate base metals 2 and 2 from supporting plate 4,
  • the plate 4 is stripped of cladding layers 1 and 1, and thus two base metals each clad with a thin metal layer are simultaneously produced as intended.
  • a thin metal layer is firmly attached to a rigid supporting plate to form an apparently stiff. sheet. Consequently, not only the thin metal layer is easy to handle, but also, when supports are in use for maintaining a space, the number of the supports can be lessened; besides, without supports provided between cladding layer and base material, the cladding layer can be subjected to explosive bonding just as a rigid cladding metal layer. Furthermore, the thin metal layer, reinforced by the supporting plate, may withstand a jetting arising at the time of explosive bonding.
  • the process embodying the present invention further makes it possible to plate, for example, titanium with platinum firmly, so that economically ideal electrode materials such as the electrode of titanium coated with platinum are obtainable, and thus the process has a great industrial value.
