In addition, tensile shear load tests and hardness tests were performed to determine the mechanical properties and fracture behavior of welded joints. These results suggest that the tensile shear strength of the DP450/AA1050 and DP450/AA7075 joints was not affected by the reaction layer formed at the welding interface. This indicates that the spot weldability of DP450/AA6061 is better than DP450/AA1050 and DP450/AA7075 Al alloys.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAluminum alloysdual phase steelresistance spot weldinginterfaceEPMAArticle10.3139/120.1108732-s2.0-850281806554125Q240858WOS:000376167900004Q4
