FEASIBILITY STUDY OF FIBER METAL RESISTANCE BRAZING OF MOLYBDENUM SHEET

Abstract

The feasibility of joining Mo-O.50 Ti-O.10 Zr by the fiber metal resistance brazing process was demonstrated. Metallic fiber compositions at the faying plane concentrate he heat at the interface, reducing the current required and thereby eliminating the two undesirable effects of emperature--electrode-base metal bonding and recrystallization of the base alloy. Increased remelt temperature of the resistance brazed joint, due to local composition changes within the heterogeneous brazing shim during brazing, have been demonstrated as feasible, but procedural improvements are indicated which should provide greater increases. Typical microstructures are presented for a number of brazing shim compositions, and a limited amount of mechanical property and remelt temperature data are presented. (Author)
