Aluminum (Al) and its alloys have been used widely in a variety of industries such as structural, electronic, aerospace, and particularly automotive industries due to their lightweight characteristic, outstanding ductility, formability, high oxidation and corrosion resistance, and high thermal and electrical conductivity. Al have different kinds of alloys according to the various additional elements system and they should be selected properly depending on their effectiveness and suitability for their particular purpose. The major elements for Al alloys are silicon (Si), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn). In order for Al alloys to use for each industry, it is necessary to study of Al to Al joining and/or the Al to dissimilar materials joining to combine the individual parts into one. Many studies on joining technologies about Al to Al and Al to dissimilar materials have been performed such as press joining, bolted joint, welding, soldering, riveting, adhesive bonding, and brazing. This study reviews a variety of Al alloys and their joining method including its principles and properties with recent trends.

The Cu-Co-Si alloy shows high strength by forming precipitates by aging precipitation heat treatment of supersaturated solid solution treated with solution treatment such as Cu-Ni-Si alloy, and the Co₂Si precipitated phase is dispersed in the copper matrix. The effect of aging treatment on the microstructure, mechanical and electrical properties of Cu-Co-Si alloys for electronic devices was investigated. As a results of SEM/EDS analysis, it was found that Co₂Si precipitates of 30~300 nm size were distributed in grains. By performing the double aging treatment, it was possible to improve the strength and electrical conductivity by dispersing the fine precipitate evenly.

재사용 발사체용으로 개발되는 엔진은 반복 사용 조건에 따른 저사이클 열피로 문제를 고려해야 한다. 본 연구는 연소기 재생냉각채널에 사용되는 구리합금의 피로수명을 인장시험 데이터로부터 예측하기 위하여 기존의 연구자들이 제안하였던 수명예측식을 다양한 종류의 구리합금의 경우에 적용하여 비교하였다. 제안된 수명예측식 중 공통경사법은 구리합금의 수명 예측에서 가장 좋은 결과를 보여 주었으며, 수정 Mitchell 방법은 OFHC 구리의 수명 예측에서 가장 좋은 결과를 보여주었다.

Mo-Cu alloys have been widely used for heat sink materials, vacuum technology, automobile, and many other applications due to their excellent physical and electric properties. Especially, Mo-Cu composites with 5 ~ 20 wt.% copper are widely used for the heavy duty service contacts due to their excellent properties like low coefficient of thermal expansion, wear resistance, high temperature strength, and prominent electrical and thermal conductivity. In most of the applications, highly-dense Mo-Cu materials with homogeneous microstructure are required for better performance. In this study, Mo-Cu alloys were prepared by PBM (planetary ball milling) and SPS (spark plasma sintering). The effect of Cu with contents of 5~20 wt.% on the microstructure and thermal properties of Mo-Cu alloys was investigated.

In this paper, based on the need for high-strength connections between all-tungsten-oriented plasma materials and thermal sinking materials of copper and its alloys in nuclear fusion devices, a study on the effect of tungsten surface laser micro structuring on the interfacial bonding properties of W/Cu joints was carried out. In the experiment, the connectors were prepared by vacuum fusion infiltration technology, and the effects of microgroove structure on the mechanical and thermal conductivity of W/Cu connectors were investigated under different parameters (including microgroove pitch, microgroove depth, and microgroove taper). The maximum shear strength is 126.0 MPa when the pitch is 0.15 mm and the depth is 34 ㎛. In addition, the negative taper structure, i.e., the width of the entrance of the microstructure is smaller than the width of the interior of the microstructure, is also investigated. The shear tests show that there is an approximately linear relationship between the shear strength of W/Cu and taper. Compared with the positive taper, the shear strength of the samples with the same morphological density and depth of the tungsten surface is significantly higher.

Alumina dispersion strengthening copper(ADSC) alloy has great potential for use in many industrial applications such as contact supports, frictional break parts, electrode materials for lead wires, and spot welding with relatively high strength and good conductivity. In this study, we investigated the oxidation behavior of ADSC alloys. These alloys were fabricated in forms of plate and round type samples by surface oxidation reaction using Cu-0.8Al, Cu-0.4Al-0.4Ti, and Cu-0.6Al-0.4Ti(wt%) alloys. The alloys were oxidized at $980^{\circ}C$ for 1 h, 2 h, and 4 h in ambient atmosphere. The microstructure was observed with an optical microscope(OM) and a scanning electron microscope(SEM) equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS). Characterization of alumina was carried out using a 200 kV field-emission transmission electron microscope(TEM). As a result, various oxides including Ti were formed in the oxidation layer, in addition to ${\gamma}$-alumina. The thickness of the oxidation layer increased with Ti addition to the Cu-Al alloy and with the oxidation time. The corrected diffusion equation for the plate and round type samples showed different oxidation layer thickness under the same conditions. Diffusion length of the round type specimen had a value higher than that of its plate counterpart because the oxygen concentration per unit area of the round type specimen was higher than that of the plate type specimen at the same diffusion depth.

Especially, Mo-Cu composites with 5~20 wt% copper are widely used for the heavy duty service contacts due to their excellent properties like low coefficient of thermal expansion, wear resistance, high temperature strength and prominent electrical and thermal conductivity. In most of the applications, high dense Mo-Cu materials with homogeneous microstructure are required for high performance, which has led in turn to attempts to prepare ultra-fine and well-dispersed Mo-Cu powders in different ways, such as spray drying and reduction process, electroless plating technique, mechanical alloying process and gelatification-reduction process. However, most of these methods were accomplished at high temperature (typically degree), resulting in undesirable growth of large Cu phases; furthermore, these methods usually require complicated experimental facilities and procedure. In this study, Mo-Cu alloying were prepared by planetary ball milling (PBM) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) and the effect of Cu with contents of 5~20 wt% on the microstructure and properties of Mo-Cu alloy has been investigated.

구리 금속은 높은 열전도도로 heat sink 혹은 heat exchanger로 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 이에 반하여 낮은 인장강도와 사용온도 한계를 가지고 있다. 따라서 높은 열전도도, 낮은 제작비와 함께 우수한 기계적 특성이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 이를 위하여 동철합금($Cu_{50}-Fe_{50}$ alloy)를 고주파 가열로를 이용하여 제조하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. 제조된 동철합금은 Cu, ${\alpha}$-Fe, ${\gamma}$-Fe 결정구조를 기진 dendrite 미세구조를 보여주었다. 제조된 동철합금은 XRD, FE-SEM, EDS 및 XRF를 이용하여 결정구조 및 미세구조를 분석하였으며 전력공급 접점용 소재로서의 적합성을 확인하고자 하였다.
