Abstract

Bonded metallic structures comprising at least two pieces each of a metallic aluminous substance selected from the group consisting of aluminium and aluminium alloys are formed by bonding the pieces together by eutectic diffusion bonding using a metallic interlayer material which is applied between the surfaces to be joined, which forms a less stable oxide than that formed by the aluminous substance and which is preferably selected from the group consisting of copper and copper-rich alloys including at least about 95% copper.
