AbstractBrazing is a unique method to permanently join a wide range of materials without oxidation. It has wide commercial application in fabricating components. This paper discusses results regarding the brazing process of 304 stainless steel. The experimental brazing is carried out using a nickel-based (Ni-11Cr-3.5Si-2.25B-3.5Fe) filler alloy. In this process, boron and silicon are incorporated to reduce the melting point, however they form hard and brittle intermetallic compounds with nickel (eutectic phases) which are detrimental to the mechanical properties of brazed joints. This investigation deals with the effects of holding time and brazing temperature on the microstructure of joint and base metal, intermetallic phases formation within the brazed joint as well as measurement of the tensile strength. The results show that a maximum tensile strength of 464 MPa is obtained at 1120°C and 4 h holding time. The shortest holding times will make boron diffuse insufficiently and generate a great deal of brittle boride components.

This study focuses on understanding the effect of Ni and Co additions to filler metals on Ag-brazed joints of cemented carbide and martensitic stainless steel. Ni and Co added braze alloys were processed based on Ag-Cu-Zn ternary alloy, and joint strength and microstructure of the brazed layer has been investigated. The joint strength increased by the 2.0mass%Ni and 0.5mass%Co addition into braze alloy. This trend is remarkable in the Co added alloy, and the brazed joint increased by 141% compared to that in no-added alloy. The joint strength was closely related to the suppression effect of Co dissolution from cemented carbide into filler layer and Fe diffusion from the stainless steel to the brazed layer. In the brazed microstructure, Co-depleted zone caused by dissolution of Co in the cemented carbide was observed near the interface between the cemented carbide and the steel. Width of the Co-depleted zone significantly decreased in the Co added alloy. However, the joint strength decreased in the multiple addition compared to that in the single addition of Ni or Co.

The fracture behaviour of brazed joints of the soft martensitic stainless steel X3CrNiMo13-4 under cyclic loading is investigated. The fatigue crack propagation curves (da/dN-ΔK) were derived for different load ratios R. The fatigue crack threshold values ΔKth were estimated to be 9 MPa m0.5, 7 MPa m0.5, 6 MPa m0.5 and 4 MPa m0.5 for the R values of 0.1, 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7, respectively. In addition, crack growth curves were derived for different constant loads ΔF. The Paris exponent, n, was estimated for the different R values and found to be very high compared to homogeneous materials. The work was completed with microstructural and fractographic investigation by scanning electron microscope (SEM).
