(0.8 mm) will not be required so long assubs

18、equent plating covers the radius. The specific gap permis-sible at such a corner shall be agreed upon by manufacturer andpurchaser.5.3.4 Projections on metallized surfaces, such as oversizeparticles or agglomerates will be objectionable if they interferewith assembly or alignment.6. Thickness of Met

19、alizing6.1 Measure thickness by observation through a calibratedmicrometer eyepiece in a metallurgical microscope. Measure apolished cross section that is perpendicular to the metallizedsurface. The measurement shall consist of the average of atleast three representative readings taken where the upp

20、er andlower edges of the layer are parallel. Magnification must be atleast 4003 to obtain satisfactory accuracy.Asuggested methodfor specimen preparation is shown in Appendix X1.6.2 Thickness of the sinter-fired metallize layer shall rangefrom 0.0004 in. (0.01 mm) to 0.002 in. (0.05 mm) unlessotherw

21、ise mutually agreed upon between the manufacturer andthe purchaser.7. Continuity of Metalizing7.1 The particles in the metallized layer must be sintered inorder to form a dense matrix when viewed in cross section at4003. This cross section will indicate the extent of three-dimensional sintering.8. D

22、iscoloration of the Ceramic8.1 Almost invariably some discoloration of the ceramicadjacent to the metallized layer will exist (Note 1). Themanufacture will not be required to eliminate discolorationcompletely.NOTE 1The actual color and depth of penetration depend on themetallizing formula and proces

23、sing cycle. Where a given degree ofdiscoloration is objectionable to the user, the manufacturer may be able tosubstitute a practice which will yield acceptable results. It is recognizedthat metallized coating properties vary with the formula and processing. Ifthe user requires such a change to reduc

24、e coloration compromise may benecessary.9. Secondary Metallic Layer on Metallizing9.1 A secondary metallic layer on the metallizing shall beapplied by the manufacturer unless otherwise specified.9.2 All metallized areas must be completely covered unlessotherwise specified.9.3 The purchaser shall spe

25、cify the metal to be applied.9.4 Manufacturer and purchaser shall agree upon the layerthickness, including maximum and minimum thickness limits.Measurement shall be by microscopical examination as de-scribed in 6.1.9.5 Brightness of clean matte deposits may not be specified.9.6 Oxide films on the se

26、condary metallic layer will not because for rejection.9.7 Defects such as blisters developed in subsequent heatingoperations will be acceptable only in 5.2 Level A applicationand only if all the following conditions are met:9.7.1 There are no more than two blisters on any one coatedband, spot, or pa

27、ttern detail.9.7.2 No blister is closer than 10 % of the total band lengthto another blister.9.7.3 Maximum dimension of any blister does not exceed10 % of the width of the band; in any case not to exceed132 in.(0.8 mm).9.8 The secondary metallic layer must adhere to the metal-lizing underneath to th

28、e extent that no separation exists at thisinterference in tension or torque peel tests after sintering of thelayer in a suitable protective atmosphere.9.9 Cleanliness such as absence of fingerprints, dirt, etc.,which may interfere with brazing or soldering, is not arequirement for acceptance unless

29、agreed upon between manu-facturer and purchaser.9.10 When the secondary metallic layer is omitted from thepurchaser requirements, the following items shall become apart of this specification:9.10.1 Metallized surfaces shall be reasonably free fromdirt, grease, fingerprints, etc., in keeping with nor

30、mal goodhandling practice, unless this condition is specifically agreedupon between manufacturer and purchaser.9.10.2 The degree of oxidation acceptable on the metalliz-ing shall be agreed upon between the manufacturer andpurchaser.10. Bond Strength10.1 The manufacturer and purchaser shall agree on

31、specificvalues of bond strength of brazed metallized ceramics.10.2 Quantitative measurements of the bond strength maybe made by the following, or other methods agreed uponbetween manufacturer and purchaser.10.2.1 Torque Peel Test A torque peel test may be usedwhere a standardized strip of a strong,

32、ductile metal such asnickel is brazed to the metallized and secondary metal surface.See Appendix X2.10.2.2 A tension test may be made in accordance with TestMethod F19. This tension test really measures the combinedeffects of all the factors involved in making the joint. It mayalso measure either th

33、e adherence of the metallizing to theceramic or the cohesive strength of the sintered metal layeritself, depending on where the fracture occurs.11. Vacuum Tightness11.1 Vacuum tightness, where required by the user, shall betested in accordance with Test Method F19, or by othermethod agreed upon betw

SUGGESTED METHOD FOR PREPARATION OF SPECIMENS FOR MICROSCOPYX1.1 Cut the specimen with a water-cooled diamond cutoffsaw.X1.2 If the

35、specimen is too small to handle readily duringsubsequent polishing, it may be mounted by any of theordinary methods. (Approved methods of mounting are givenin Methods E3.) It is best to mount a complete seal section ina resin which contains fillers so that the relatively soft metalphases adjacent to

36、 hard ceramic phases do not become roundedduring polishing.X1.3 Rough grind on 240 and 400-grit diamond laps. Thisstep should remove 0.040 in. and 0.060 in. (1 to 1.5 mm) stockfrom the surface in order to remove completely all surfacedamage caused by the cutoff operation.X1.4 Fine grind with 15-m di

37、amond grinding compoundon a hardwood or napless cloth-covered wheel. This stepshould impart a polished look to the ceramic and reduce thedark “plucked-out” areas considerably when viewed at 100 to2003 magnification through a metallurgical microscope.X1.5 Polish successively with 6, 3, and 1-m diamon

38、dcompounds on napless cloth or chemotextile-covered wheels.Another polish with submicron diamonds will improve thepolish on the metal phases.X1.6 Perform final polishing with alpha alumina of particlesize 0.1 to 0.3 m, on the same type wheels as in precedingsteps. This step has two purposes: ( a) to

39、 remove scratchesfrom the metal phases, and ( b) to give some relief andtherefore contrast to the glassy phases of the ceramic and themetallizing layer.X1.7 Use heavy pressure with the diamond abrasives.Usually about a minute on each wheel will be sufficient tocompletely remove the marks made by the

40、 previous step. Thefinal alumina stage should be done with light but firm touch;time in this stage should be as short as possible in order tominimize relief of the softer metal phases.X2. TEST FOR METALLIZING QUALITYX2.1 The following test may be used to determine thequality of metallizing on any ce

41、ramic surfaces having metal-lized areas 0.125 by 0.125 in. (3.18 by 3.18 mm) or larger. Theceramic surface should be flat to 0.001 in. (0.02 mm), althoughcurved metallized surfaces may also be tested. Curved surfacestend to yield slightly higher values.X2.2 The ceramic may be metallized by any metho

42、d. Asecondary metallic layer may be deposited as desired or thesurface otherwise prepared for brazing. Position a clean,ductile metal tab 0.125 6 0.001 by 0.025 6 0.001 by 1 in.(3.18 6 0.02 by 0.6 6 0.02 by 25.4 mm) long snugly againstthe metallized surface so that 0.125 6 0.005 in. (3.18 6 0.01mm)

43、of its length is held against the metallizing. Braze usingsilver-copper eutectic solder and good established brazingtechniques.X2.3 Hold the ceramic firmly in a suitable fixture andgently bend the metal tab at right angles to the metallizedsurface at the point of contact. Grasp the end of the metal

44、tabby a suitable pressure grip and pull at right angles to theceramic surface until failure occurs. The manufacturer and thepurchaser shall agree upon acceptable low limits and maximumrange.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights asserted in connection with
