In this study, a cold worked tool steel and a low carbon steel ( St 37 ), which were joined by brazing, were subjected to impact and shear loading. The end product is used as paper cutting blades in the industry. Effects of different brazing filler metals on the delamination of the blades under impact loading and on the impact toughness of the blades were studied. The target is to achieve higher impact toughness values without delamination.
Impact toughness of the steels, joined by Cu, CuNi and BNi brazing filler metals and separation of brazed surfaces under shear loading were studied. The microstructures that were formed as a result of each application were studied by scanning electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction.
The results indicate that brittle intermetallic compounds are formed in BNi brazing filler metal application. It is observed that CuNi alloy with 24% wt Ni form stronger bonds with the base metals than pure Cu and 10% wt Ni CuNi alloy.
