Abstract
This study utilized a bobbin tool to friction stir weld aluminum 6082 workpieces under two sets of process parameters: a tool rotation speed of 280 rev/min with a weld velocity of 280 mm/min (280/280) and a tool rotation speed of 450 rev/min with a weld velocity of 450 mm/min (450/450). The weld microstructures were characterized through optical microscopy utilizing polarized light and through transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with chemical analysis by energy dispersive spectroscopy and electron back scatter diffraction. The microstructural studies were supplemented by hardness measurements (Vickers) performed on the same sections as the metallographic examinations. The produced weldments were free from cracks and any discontinuities. Fine, equiaxed grains that were several microns in size characterized the stir zones (SZs), and the advancing (AS) and retreating (RS) sides revealed distinct microstructural features. On the AS, the transition from the thermo-mechanically affected zone to the SZ was well defined and sharp, but on the RS, the transition appeared as a continuous, gradual change in microstructure. The lower weld energy (280/280) produced lower hardness in the stir zone than the higher energy weld (450/450), ~95 HV1 versus ~115 HV1; however, the 280/280 welds showed higher tensile strengths than the 450/450 welds, ~238 MPa as opposed to ~172 MPa. These behaviors in mechanical performance correlated with the temperature histories produced by each set of weld parameters in relation to the precipitation behavior of the alloy. The fracture characteristics of the weldments were notably different with the 450/450 sample fracturing in a quasi-brittle manner with slight plastic deformation and the 280/280 sample fracturing ductilely. A numerical simulation supported the investigation by elucidating the temperature and material flow behavior during the joining process.
