Einsatz des Explosivschweißens zur Herstellung von Edelmetallplattierungen

Explosive Welding as a Technique for Cladding of Precious Metals The method of explosive welding and the importance of the cladding parameters are described. The “Explosive Weldability Window” is experimentally determined for the material combination AgCu 10/Fe. The behaviour of explosive claddings produced under different conditions during rolling is investigated. Best results are obtained with samples with a wavy interphase, produced under the following cladding parameters: It is shown, that in comparison with conventional methods explosive cladding has advantages both in processing and quality.
