Diffusion bonding of TC21 titanium alloy was carried out at temperature ranging from 780 ℃ to 980 ℃ for 5-90 min.The interfacial bonding ratio,deformation ratio,microstructures and microhardness of the diffusion bonded joints were investigated.Results show that joints with high bonding quality can be obtained when bonded at 880 ℃ for 15?30 min.The microhardness increases with increasing the bonding temperature,while it has a peak value(HV367) when bonding time is prolonged up to 90 min.Fully equiaxed microstructures,bi-modal microstructures and fully lamellar microstructures were observed when bonded in temperature range of 780-880 ℃,at 930 ℃ or 980 ℃,respectively.The volume fraction of α phase first increases and achieves the maximum when bonded at 880 ℃ for 60 min,and then descended.
