Diffusion bonding is an effective technique for joining dissimilar metals. In this paper, tungsten and MA956 steel were diffusion-bonded by Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) technique with titanium (Ti) foil as an interlayer. The bonded joints were evaluated by metallographic analysis and mechanical test...
