Abstract The Al/Cu dissimilar metal joints with good forming and mechanical properties were achieved byAC assisted plasma arc brazing assisted with adding SiO2 nano-powder from the aspects of process improvement and interface control. The microstructure of the interface and the mechanical properties of the joint were analyzed, and the internal mechanism of the interface formation was described. The results show that the introduction of AC assisted arc can significantly improve the wetting and spreading properties of Al on Cu base metal surface, and the effective joint length increases from 12.25 mm to 15.2 mm. The microstructure analysis of the joint shows that nano-SiO2 adsorbs on Cu interface and IMC layer, which acts as diffusion barrier, impedes the reaction and mutual diffusion between Al and Cu atoms, reduces the thickness of IMC interface during welding, and slows down the growth of IMC during isothermal aging. At the same time, due to the larger effective connection length and the inhibition effect on the IMC layer, the joint with AC auxiliary current value of SiO2 nanoparticles added at 45 A bears the maximum fracture load of 0.85 kN, and the fracture is located in the heat-affected zone on the aluminum side, and the mechanical properties of the joint are good.
