FLUX COMPOSITION FOR BRAZING OF ALUMINUM MATERIAL AND METHOD FOR BRAZING OF ALUMINUM MATERIAL

摘要

A flux composition for brazing of an aluminum material which can feed a proper amount of flux to an area to be joined at the time of brazing and at the same time can improve working environment, and a method for brazing of an aluminum material. The method comprises: coating an aluminum material to be joined with a flux composition comprising 0.5 to 25 parts by weight of a polymeric compound having a number average molecular weight of 50000 to 5000000 and comprising repeating alkylene oxide units, 5 to 30 parts by weight of a fluoride flux, and water added in such an amount as will provide a total amount of the composition of 100 parts by weight; heating the coated area to remove water; heating the coated area to decompose and remove the polymeric compound; and then conducting heating for brazing. <IMAGE>
