This study investigated actively brazing Alumina-to-Alumina with Ag-Cu-Ti as the filler metal system and Alumina-to-Copper with Cu-Ti-Co as the filler-metal system. The research was conducted on four samples, two of which were alumina brazed to alumina (Samples 1 & 2), and the other two were alumina brazed to copper (Samples 3 & 4). The filler metal composition for each sample was as follows: Sample 1 consisted of Cu-96%, and Ti-4%; Sample 2 consisted of Ag-70%, Cu-26%, and Ti-4%; Sample 3 consisted of Cu-85%, Ti-10%, and Co-5%; and Sample 4 consisted of Cu-55%, Ti-40%, and Co-5%. The phase transformations between the filler and base metal of each brazed joint were studied using EDS, SEM, optical microscopy, and X-ray diffraction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
