THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF DIFFUSION BONDED CRYSTAL

The fracture behavior and fracture manner in the diffusion-bonded joints ended up elucidated by macro fracture and magnified area morphologies. The macro fracture morphologies (flat fracture) show the propagation of crack transpired alongside the MEA/DD5 interface in tensile tests on the joints obtained at 1020, 1050, and 1080 °C (Figure 8a–c).
