Abstract:
An active ternary brazing filler metal of Al-12Si-1Ti with a melting temperature range of 851-856 K was developed by adding Ti into Al-Si system alloy to improve the wettability of Al-Si system filler metal on pure aluminum matrix composite reinforced with short alumina fiber (Al2O3sf/Al). The wetting behavior of the developed Al-12Si-1Ti and conventional Al-12Si foils were compared using sessile drop test at 883 K for 300, 900, and 1800 s in flowing argon atmosphere. After shorter retardation periods, the interfacial gaps between Al-12Si-1Ti foil and matrix (M/M) micro-interfaces could disappear more easily than the case of using conventional Al-12Si foil. Moreover, the thickness of residual Al-12Si-1Ti foil also decreased faster than that of conventional Al-12Si foil. Especially, the interfacial gaps between reinforcement and filler metal (R/M) micro-interfaces could be eliminated for the developed Al-12Si-1Ti foil, while for conventional Al-12Si foil the interfacial gaps at R/M micro-interfaces could not be eliminated, although Si atoms could penetrate into the composite through bonded M/M micro-interfaces. These results showed that the Ti addition could not only accelerate the wetting at M/M micro-interfaces, but also eliminate the interfacial gaps at R/M micro-interfaces.
