DETAILED NOTES ON DIFFUSION BONDED CRYSTAL

The fracture actions and fracture method in the diffusion-bonded joints have been elucidated by macro fracture and magnified surface morphologies. The macro fracture morphologies (flat fracture) display which the propagation of crack occurred alongside the MEA/DD5 interface in tensile assessments of the joints obtained at 1020, 1050, and 1080 °C (
