Controllable distribution of reinforcements for reducing the strain energy in dissimilar ceramic/metal joints
A novel design of a multi-layered joint architecture, characterized by the controllable spatial distribution of ceramic reinforcements, was obtained, when brazing ZrB 2 -SiC ceramics and Ti-6Al-4 V reinforced by TiB whiskers with AgCu filler. To induce SiC reinforcements to cluster together, within the center of the filler and especially away from the ZrB 2 -SiC, SiC was added into joint, in the form of a SiC interlayer featuring a 3D-bridged network structure with continuous micro-channels infiltrated by capillary force by liquid filler during brazing. Different SiC particles were connected together, by micro-bridges being not destroyed during brazing. The layer rich in SiC could reduce thermal expansion mismatch between different substrates, the AgCu next to the ZrB 2 -SiC could relax the strain energy by high plastic deformation. Compared to joint brazed with single AgCu, joint strain energy decreased from 10.8 × 10 −6 J to 8.6 × 10 −6 J, accordingly joint shear strength increased from ∼5.4 MPa to ∼41.2 MPa.
