"Contributing to the lightweighting of vehicles and more!" Joining dissimilar metals to create composites!
We have successfully bonded flame-retardant magnesium with alloy aluminum and stainless steel using the explosive welding method, achieving composite formation! Samples are also available.
Asahi Kasei Corporation has developed an explosive bonding technology that utilizes the instantaneous high energy generated when explosives detonate to metallurgically join dissimilar metals at room temperature. This product ensures durability by firmly bonding lightweight alloys with high specific strength and stiffness, such as flame-retardant magnesium, to materials like aluminum and stainless steel, significantly contributing to the weight reduction of vehicles, ships, and molds. You can also check bonding samples in your possession. 【Features of Flame-Retardant Magnesium Clad】 ■ Achieves bonding between flame-retardant magnesium, which is known to easily form brittle alloy layers and is considered difficult to bond with dissimilar metals, and aluminum and stainless steel (Patent No. 6733049). ■ Realizes weight reduction through composites with lightweight flame-retardant magnesium among practical metals. ■ Specific strength superior to titanium and aluminum. ■ Serves as a structural dissimilar material joint for bonding magnesium with aluminum and stainless steel. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

Company information
BA Clad is a clad steel plate manufactured by Asahi Kasei using the explosive welding method, and it has received high praise in various fields since its launch. The explosive welding method utilizes the enormous energy released during an explosion to instantaneously bond metal plates together, thereby producing clad steel plates. BA Clad is used for plants and equipment in the chemical industry, petroleum refining, petrochemicals, and power generation, and is exported widely both domestically and internationally, either as flat plates or various components. It is used as corrosion-resistant and heat-resistant structural materials for power plant condenser tube sheets, heat exchanger tube sheets for chemical plants, shells, and end plates, among others, and its applications are continually expanding to include rolling mill liners, electrodes, ultra-low temperature joints, ultra-high vacuum joints, and structural joints for ships and LNG tankers. We propose solutions related to metal joining (dissimilar metal joining, similar metal joining) and cladding. We can provide joining characteristics such as material properties, joining strength, minimization of alloying at the joining interface, and joining area that are difficult to achieve with other joining methods, such as various welding techniques, diffusion bonding (roll bonding, HIP, etc.), friction joining (friction welding, friction stir welding (FSW)), electromagnetic pressure welding, brazing, plating, and thermal spraying.
