<p>The invention is a method of bonding a ceramic part (6) to a metal part (4) by heating a component assembly (2) comprised of the metal part (4), the ceramic part (6), and a very thin essentially pure interlayer material (8) of a compatible interlayer material (8) placed between the two parts and heated at a temperature that is greater than the temperature of the eutectic formed between the metal part (4) and the metal interlayer material, but that is less than the melting point of either the interlayer material, the ceramic part (6) or the metal part (4). The component assembly (2) is held in intimate contact at temperature in a non-reactive atmosphere for a sufficient time to develop a homogeneous and strong bond between the ceramic part (6) and the metal part (4). The bonded component assembly (2) is optionally treated with acid to remove any residual free nickel and nickel salts, to assure a biocompatible component assembly (2) for implantation in living tissue.</p> |
