Formation of Interfacial Reaction Layers in Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/SS 430 Brazed Joints Using Cu-7Al-3.5Zr Alloys

The formation of interfacial reaction layers was investigated in an &#945;-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/430 stainless steel (SS430) joint brazed using a Cu-7Al-3.5Zr active brazing alloy. Brazing was conducted at above its eutectic temperature of 945 &#176;C and below...

description The formation of interfacial reaction layers was investigated in an &#945;-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/430 stainless steel (SS430) joint brazed using a Cu-7Al-3.5Zr active brazing alloy. Brazing was conducted at above its eutectic temperature of 945 &#176;C and below liquidus 1045 &#176;C, where liquid and solid phases of the brazing alloys coexists. At 1000 &#176;C, the liquid phase of the brazing alloy was wet onto the &#945;-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> surface. Zr in the liquid phase reduced &#945;-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> to form a continuous ZrO<sub>2</sub> layer. As the dwell time increased, Zr in the liquid phases near &#945;-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> interface was used up to thicken the reaction layers. The growth kinetics of the layer obeys the parabolic rate law with a rate constant of 9.25 &#215; 10<sup>&#8722;6</sup> cm&#183;s<sup>&#8722;1/2</sup>. It was observed that a number of low yield strength Cu-rich particles were dispersed over the reaction layer, which can release the residual stress of the joint resulting in reduction of crack occurrence.
