Popis: We conduct high-resolution microscale tensile testing of galvannealed steel/Al–Mg–Si alloy dissimilar joints and find that the interfacial reaction layer is sufficiently strong to induce microscale aluminum fractures. The interfacial reaction layer with the 5-µm-thickness generated by friction stir spot welding contains Fe–Al intermetallic compounds (IMCs) with grain diameters of 10 nm to 2 µm, Zn–Mg compounds present around the Fe–Al IMC, and microscale defects within the layer. The microtensile test demonstrates the slip fracture of aluminum regardless of defects present within the reaction layer. The maximum stress withstood by the specimen is 309 MPa.
