7、those that make met- allurgical bonding of other metals possible. After aluminums tough protective oxide coat- ing is removed, the soldering of aluminum proceeds along lines similar to those used with other metals, utilizing essentially the same techniques and equipment. Properly made, aluminum join

Aluminum is joined by soldering when many joints are to be made simultaneously and economically; when nearby material pre

37、rma- nently joining aluminum to aluminum and to other metals. Properly made joints are leakproof and strong. Soldering is used for joining aluminum wires, making heat exchangers, spacecraft plumbing and thousands of other applications far too numerous to list here. Aluminum soldering is relatively s

38、imple. Single joints are readily made in the field and shop with low-cost hand tools. Single and multiple joints, often numbering in the thousands, are automatically produced with comparatively low-cost equipment by semiskilled personnel. Advantages of Soldering temperatures than either brazing or w

By the same token, sol- dered assemblies have lower temperature-induced stresses as compared to brazed or welded aluminum assemblies. The temperatures employed in soldering, the nature of the process and aluminums excellent thermal con

The fluxes normally used to solder aluminum are easier to remove than the fluxes normally used for brazing aluminum. There is also a group of aluminum soldering fluxes that, in many applications, do not

41、 need to be removed. (Certain organic fluxes are nonhygroscopic and noncorrosive.) By accepted American Welding Society definition, solder- ing is a joining process wherein coalescence between metal parts is produced by heating to suitable temperatures gener- ally below 840“F, and by using a filler

42、metal having a liq- uidus not exceeding 840F (449C) and below the solidus of the base metals. The solder is usually distributed between the properly fitted surfaces of the joint by capillary attraction. Brazing, by the same definition, is a similar process accom- plished at temperatures above 840F b

43、ut below the melting point of the metals to be joined. Welding requires that the par- ent metals be brought to or above their melting points. As soldering is accomplished at lower temperatures than brazing (and at considerably lower temperatures than weld- ing), it is often possible, by proper selec

44、tion of alloy and a low temperature solder, to solder aluminum with little loss of parent metal temper. Brazing requires a following quenching and aging treatment to restore temper. (This is only possible with heat-treatable alloys.) Remelting temperatures of sol- dered joints are too low to permit

45、solution heat treatment of soldered assemblies in heat-treatable aluminum alloys. In contrast to welding, the heat of soldering (and brazing) is fairly evenly distributed. Part expansion and subsequent contraction associated with soldering is far less an obstacle to precise joining than the inter-pa

As soldering does not need to be followed by quenching (to restore temper) and as soldering is accomplished at lower Aluminum may be soldered with a wide range of solders, a wide range of temperatures and a variety of fluxe

47、s. Brazing aluminum is accomplished in a narrow range of temperatures just below the melting point of the parent metal. Only a lim- ited variety of fluxes are currently available for brazing. Soldering therefore offers the designer greater flexibility within its scope. Aluminum is brazed at temperat

48、ures no more than about 50F below the solidus temperature of the base metal, and frequently closer. Aluminum soldering temperatures are, at a minimum, 200F below the solidus temperature of the base metal. Temperature control with aluminum soldering is there- fore considerably less stringent and dema

49、nding than that nec- essary for brazing. Less skill is required on the part of the torch operator to keep from melting the base metal when sol- dering than when brazing. (The solidus temperature of a metal marks the onset of melting. Liquidus marks the thermal point at which the metal is completely liquid. Between its solidus and liquidus temperature points, a metal is semi- liquid or slushy.) Soldering aluminum is relatively simple. Written instruc- tions are all that is needed for casual forming of joints. Commercial-quality soldering can be q
