Vacuum brazing of ceramics and metals
Vacuum brazing of ceramics and metals
The general process of brazing ceramics and metals can be divided into seven processes: surface cleaning, paste coating, ceramic surface metallization, nickel plating, brazing and post-weld inspection.
Surface cleaning is to remove oil, sweat and oxide film on the surface of the base material. Metal parts and brazing materials are first degreased, then pickled or alkaline washed to remove the oxide film, rinsed with running water and dried. Parts with high requirements should be heat treated in a vacuum furnace or hydrogen furnace (or ion bombardment method) at an appropriate temperature and time to purify the surface of the parts. After cleaning, the parts must not come into contact with oily objects or bare hands, and should immediately enter the next process or be placed in a dryer. They cannot be exposed to the air for a long time. Ceramic parts should be cleaned with acetone and ultrasound, then rinsed with running water, and finally boiled with deionized water twice, each time for 15 minutes.
