Abstract

The present invention is directed to improved weldable metal composites and methods. A metal composite structure (10) features two metal members (12) (14) sandwiching a viscoelastic layer (26) where the viscoelastic layer entrains electrically conductive particles (28) and a carbon extracting attractant layers (32) (34) to inhibit and/or prevent carbon migration and carbide formation during welding.
