Effect of anodizing on pulsed Nd: YAG laser joining of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and aluminium alloy (A5052)

A series of laser joining experiments between polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and aluminium alloy (A5052) were conducted to investigate the effect of anodizing on A5052 surface on dissimilar materials used in joining. In this study, PET/A5052 joints with anodized A5052 surface exhibited greater she...
