description Brazing was one of the earliest material-joining methods to be invented and widely used by humans. In the past 30 years, the technology and materials employed for brazing have developed rapidly and continuously. With the rise of the international new industrial revolution, the manufacturing industry is moving towards diversification, and brazing filler metals are also evolving in the direction of eco-friendliness, compounding and diversification. In the “carbon neutral” environment of 2021, green composite brazing materials will become mainstream. In this paper, the classification and characteristics of flux-containing brazing materials are summarized, and the preparation technology, composition design and typical application of composite brazing materials such as flux-cored brazing filler metal, flux-coated brazing filler metal and powder metallurgy brazing filler metal are analyzed. The article highlights the problems encountered in the research and development of composite brazing materials and proposes future development directions, such as with low-silver and cadmium-free brazing filler metals, the creation of new powder brazing filler metal-forming technology and improvements to the quality of brazing filler metals by shape control and performance optimization, to accelerate the process of brazing automation.
