A new filler metal with low contents of Cu for high strength aluminum alloy brazed joints
Highlights New low-melting-point filler metals were developed with low contents of Cu addition. The melting point of Al–Si–Cu–Ni alloys decreased with Cu contents increasing. Low melting point properties was due to low temperature alloy reactions. Sound joints can be obtained with Al–10Si–15Cu–4Ni filler metal. The highest average joint strength could achieve a value up to 144.4MPa.
Abstract The effect of Cu with low contents of 10, 12, 15wt.% on the microstructure and melting point of Al–Si–Cu–Ni alloy has been investigated. Results showed that low-melting-point properties of Al–Si–Cu–Ni alloys with low contents of Cu were attributed to disappearance of Al–Si binary eutectic reaction and introduction of Al–Si–Cu–Ni quaternary reaction. With raising Cu content from 10 to 15wt.%, the amount of complex eutectic phases formed during low temperature reactions (Al–Cu, Al–Si–Cu and Al–Si–Cu–Ni alloy reactions) increased and the melting temperature of Al–Si–Cu–Ni filler metals declined. Brazing of 6061 aluminum alloy with Al–10Si–15Cu–4Ni (all in wt.%) filler metal of a melting temperature range from 519.3 to 540.2°C has been carried out successfully at 570°C. Sound joints can be obtained with Al–10Si–15Cu–4Ni filler metal when brazed at 570°C for holding time of 60min or more, and achieved high shear strength up to 144.4MPa.
