A method for improving diffusion welding of TiAl45XD and GH4169 by adding Ti foil interlayer
TiAl 45XD and nickel-based alloys were joined in a vacuum hot-pressing sintering furnace by diffusion welding. Atomic diffusion was achieved using a Ti foil interlayer, which solved the problems of high residual stress and difficult processing, resulting in a tight joint with high hardness and low deformation.

AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are difficult to effectively join TiAl 45XD and GH4169 alloys. The welding process results in high residual stress and is prone to cracking, and is also difficult to process.
A diffusion welding method was adopted, in which the TiAl 45XD and nickel-based alloy contact surfaces were subjected to micro-plastic deformation under certain temperature and pressure in a vacuum hot-press sintering furnace to achieve atomic diffusion bonding, and Ti foil interlayer was used for welding.
It reduces residual stress, improves welding quality, and produces tight joints without obvious shrinkage cavities or porosity, while increasing hardness, reducing deformation, and increasing shear strength.
