  1. BRAZING FLUX STUDIES INTERNATIONAL BRAZING AND SOLDERING CONFERENCE ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO / APRIL 4, 2000 • Presented By:Dr. Y. BaskinSuperior Flux & Manufacturing CompanyCleveland, Ohio

  2. PURPOSE • To study the effects of time, temperature, and flux formulation on activation and exhaustion temperatures, which determine flux activity ranges. The role of several different base metals and filler metals was also studied

  3. EQUIPMENT • Thermolyne 1500 Furnace - Maximum Temperature 1300° C • 30 Tempilstik Temperature Indicators -400° - 1200° C • Calibrated Pyrometer with Surface Probe • Timer • Balance

  4. BASE METALS • Mild Steel • Stainless Steel 316 • Copper • Brass (70% Copper, 30% Zinc)

  5. FILLER METALS Bag-1 • Composition: 45% Silver, 15% Copper, 16% Zinc, 24% Cadmium Melting Point: 618° C Braze 630 - Bag-21, SAE-AMS 4774 • Composition: 63% Silver, 28.5% Copper, 6% Tin, 2.5% NickelMelting Point: 690° C High-Temp 095, SAE-AMS 4764 • Composition: 52.5% Copper, 38% Manganese, 9.5% NickelMelting Point: 875° C

  6. Boric Acid Potassium Tetraborate Potassium Fluoborate Potassium Carbonate Potassium Fluroide Potassium Bifluoride Sodium Tetraborate (Borax) Silica Potassium Pentaborate FLUXES Fifteen fluxes were used, including existing products and experimental, formulations. Compositions included the following raw materials:

  14. CONCLUSIONS • Flux compositions high in boron and low in fluorine generally exhibit better high temperature properties , whereas compositions low in boron and high in fluorine show better and more active low temperature properties, Difference s in raw materials and other chemical factors may account for the departure from a more linear relationship between activation or exhaustion temperature and B/F ratios. • Increased soaking time reduces flux activation temperature.

  15. CONCLUSIONS (Continued) • Neither flux activation temperature nor exhaustion temperature are affected by the base metal used, as long as the stability range of the metal is not exceeded. • Similarly flux exhaustion temperatures are not affected by the filler metal used, as long as the stability of the filler metal is not exceeded.
