Marc was utilized to analysis the field of stress of the Al2O3 joints brazed with composite filler materials. The properties of the filler materials were defined by using the mixing law, method of Mori-Tanaka and theory of Eshelby to ensure the accuracy and reliability of results of finite element method （FEM）. The results show stress in brazed beam is higher than that in base material. The maximal stress can be found in the interface of joint. And the experimental results show that the shear strength of joints increases from 93.75 MPa （ Al2O3p Ovol. % ） to 135.32 MPa （ Al2O3p 15vol. % ） when composition of titanium is 3wt% in the filler metal.展开更多

When products are brazed, the optimum brazing parameters are as follows： brazing temperature is 1215-1225 K; brazing time is 250-300 s. Four kinds of reaction products were observed during the brazing of Ti3Al alloys with the filler metal Cu-P, i.e., Ti3Al phase with a small quantity of Cu （Ti3Al（Cu）） formed close to the Ti3Al alloy; the TiCu intermetallic compounds layer and the Cu3P intermetallic compounds layer formed between Ti3Al（Cu） and the filler metal, and a Cu-base solid solution formed with the dispersed Cu3P in the middle of the joint. The interracial structure of brazed Ti3Al alloys joints with the filler metal Cu-P is Ti3Al/Ti3Al（Cu）/TiCu/Cu3P/Cu solid solution （Cu3P）/Cu3P/TiCu/Ti3Al（Cu）/Ti3Al, and this structure will not change with brazing time once it forms. The thickness of TiCu＋Cu3P intermetallic compounds increases with brazing time according to a parabolic law. The activation energy Q and the growth velocity/to of reaction layer TiCu＋Cu3P in the brazed joints of Ti3Al alloys with the filler metal Cu-P are 286 kJ/mol and 0.0821 m2/s, respectively, and growth formula was y2=O.O821exp（-34421.59/T）t.Careful control of the growth for the reaction layer TiCu＋Cu3P can influence the final joint strength. The formation of the intermetallic compounds TiCu＋Cu3P results in embrittlement of the joint and poor joint properties. The Cu-P filler metal is not fit for obtaining a high-quality joint of Ti3Al brazed.展开更多

The interfacial microstructure and the fractures were examined with an optical microscope(OM) and an S-4700 scanning electron microscope(SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS) and an electron probe X-ray microanalyzer(EPMA) . The structure of joint interface was identified by XRD(JDX-3530M) . Meanwhile,the fracture paths of the joints were comprehensively studied. The results show that processing parameters,especially the brazing temperature,have a significant effect on the microstructure and mechanical properties of joints. The typical interface structure is SiO2/Ti2O+Zr3Si2+Ti5Si3/(Ti,Zr) +Ti2O+ TiZrNiCu/Ti(s.s) /TiZrNiCu+Ti(s.s) +Ti2(Cu,Ni) /TC4 from SiO2 glass ceramic to TC4 alloy side.

In this paper , hard alloy YG11C （ WC-11wt. %Co） and high strength steel 42CrMo were picked up as base metals and BCu64MnNi as filler metal to clarify the interfacial microstrncture evolution. The process parameters of dwell time were set as 30 s, 60 s, 120 s, and 300 s and braze temperature were set as 950 ℃, 970 ℃, 990 ℃, 1 010 ℃, the effect of which on the evolution of interfacial microstructure, tensile strength, integrated with fracture morphology analysis, were conducted. The results showed that increasing brazing temperature from 950 ℃ to 970 ℃, no signifwant difference existed in the joint interface, whereas brazed at 990 ℃, the binder phase erosion occurred, i. e. the liquid filler metal etched into Co binder phase of WC-Co base metal, which caused WC particles debonding from the base metal surface and formed an micro-anisotropic zone.. Increase temperature to 1 010 ℃, severe binder erosion happened so as to micropores appear. Through the parameters optimization, the tensile strength can reach to the maximum 589 MPa at temperature of 970 ℃. The dwell time showed similar effect on tensile strength because longer dwell time also caused erosion and porosity owing to long-time diffusion and reaction.展开更多

Hence the shrinkage stress arises and the jointing strength is reduced during the brazing of high-voltage vacuum interrupters （HVVIs）. The solder bound contour was gained by solved energy bound equation. The finite element model of weld beads was established with Surface Evolver software. Then the stress in two different cooling techniques （ natural cooling and force cooling） was calculated with ANSYS. Comparing the stress, a better cooling technique was selected for HVVIs. Its cooling time is shortened by 3 hours while the jointing stress doesn＇ t increase and the tensile strength of ceramic to metal seal is not decreased. The stress-rupture tests have validated the calculated results. More important, a method is found, by which the brazing technique could be improved in advance instead of blind experiments.展开更多
