Clad metal produced by explosive welding, and method for producing the same.

摘要

An explosive metal cladding method and a clad metal producing by the method, wherein the relative density ratio value of a clad material and a base material is within the range of 0.4 to 0.7, which value is obtained by dividing density of the relatively light metal by the density of the relatively heavy metal, the explosive cladding being effected after the gap provided between the clad material and the base material had been filled with argon gas. The mechanical characteristic such as bond strength and impact properties can be improved by the method of the present invention.
