    Characterization of ZTA Composite Ceramic/Ti6Al4V Alloy Joints Brazed by AgCu Filler Alloy Reinforced with One-Dimensional Al18B4O33 Single Crystal

    by Yifeng Wang, Zhouxin Jin, Guangjie Feng, Jian Cao, Hao Zhang, Dean Deng

    Al18B4O33 whiskers were used as a reinforcer to study the effect of one-dimensional single crystal on the quality improvement of ZTA composite ceramic/Ti6Al4V alloy joints brazed by AgCu alloy. The microstructure of the joint with whisker additions was characterized in detail. The effects of brazing temperature on the microstructure and shear strength of the brazed joints were investigated. The results showed that the whiskers reacted with the liquid alloy during the brazing process and continuous (Cu,Al)3Ti3O layers were formed in contact with the residual whiskers. The addition of 2 wt.% Al18B4O33 whiskers into AgCu filler alloy can delay the growth of the (Cu,Al)3Ti3O layer on the ZTA side, and can significantly restrain the growth of the Ti-Cu compound region over a brazing temperature range of 800~875 °C. Because of the one-dimensional reinforcement, the temperature window for obtaining ZTA/Ti6Al4V joints with shear strength values higher than 50 MPa was extended, and the maximum shear strength of the joints reached 56 MPa.

    Wetting Behavior of the Ag-5CuO Brazing Alloy on ZTA Composite Ceramic with/without CuO Coating in Air

    by Guangjie Feng, Manqin Liu, Yalei Liu, Zhouxin Jin, Yifeng Wang, Dean Deng

    The wetting of Ag-5 wt.% CuO (Ag-5CuO) alloy on initial/CuO-coated zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) composite ceramic in air was studied in detail. The results showed that the contact angle of the Ag-5CuO/ZTA system rapidly decreased from 81° at 970 °C to 45° at 990 °C during the heating process, however, moderate reductions in contact angle were observed in the subsequent heating and temperature holding stages. In comparison with the contact angle of pure Al2O3, an increment of about 4° of the stable contact angle of Ag-5CuO alloy on the heterogeneous ZTA was observed. The reaction between Al2O3 and CuO can reduce the damage of the CuO-rich liquid to ZrO2 in the ZTA substrate. Both oxygen and CuO were helpful in reducing the contact angle of Ag on ZTA and enhancing the bonding of the Ag/ZTA interface. The continuous CuO coating on ZTA and the monotectic liquid containing more CuO in the region near the triple line induced reductions of more than 40° and about 10° in the contact angle, respectively, between the initial and the CuO coating-improved wetting systems.
