Brazing of porous Si3N4 ceramic to Invar alloy with a novel Cu–Ti filler alloy: Microstructure and mechanical properties
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Porous Si3N4 (P–Si3N4) ceramic was successfully joined to Invar alloy using a Cu–Ti active brazing alloy for the first time. The interfacial reactions between the Cu–Ti filler and two dissimilar substrates were studied. The influence of brazing process on the microstructure evolution of the joint was revealed, along with the formation of an infiltration layer that permitted the bonding of P–Si3N4 substrate. Ti reacted with Si3N4 to form TiN and Ti5Si3 compounds, resulting in the decomposition of Si3N4. In addition, the reaction and diffusion dual-layer formed at the Cu–Ti/Invar interface, which was attributed to the interaction of alloy elements between the braze filler and the Invar alloy. Fe–Ti and Ni–Ti intermetallics together with Cu solid solution (s,s) constituted the microstructure of the brazing seam. In addition, the optimal shear strength of the brazed joint was 20 MPa and the fracture propagation occurred in the P–Si3N4 ceramic substrate adjacent to the infiltration layer during the shearing tests.
