Two regular tetrahedrons connected face to face make a "regular triangular dipyramid."

That is one of the 92 "Johnson solids." Those are the convex polyhedrons whose faces are regular polygons but do not belong to either of the two sets of highly symmetric polyhedrons (the Platonic and the Archimedean) or to the perhaps less interesting two infinite families of prisms and antiprisms.

If the two tetrahedrons overlap, both centers at the same place but with the tetrahedrons facing in opposite directions, it makes a "stellated octahedron."

What force is caused by tiny collisions called microwelds on surface tjat are stuck together?

The force caused by tiny collisions called microwelds on surfaces that are stuck together is called friction. Friction is the resistance to motion when two surfaces are in contact with each other. Microwelds are small points of contact where atoms on the surfaces bond together, creating resistance to movement.
