Since the dissimilar bonded interface usually consists of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) layer and cracks, their mechanical and electrical properties can be influenced by microstructure at interface between two different metals. In this study, the friction welded Cu-Al busbar, which is widely used to connect a secondary battery and their component, is selected to analyze the influence of interfacial characteristic on their tensile strength and electric conductivity. Then, the electrical characteristics of Cu busbar and Cu-Al busbar were investigated by thermal flow analysis and temperature rise test. In addition, the relationship between the maximum saturation temperature and the electrical conductivity were discussed in terms of interfacial characteristics of the friction welded Cu-Al busbar.
