PROCEDE D'ASSEMBLAGE A L'AIDE D'UN JOINT EPAIS DE PIECES EN MATERIAUX A BASE DE SIC PAR BRASAGE REFRACTAIRE ET JOINT REFRACTAIRE ET EPAIS AINSI OBTENU

摘要

A method for joining at least two parts made of a silicon carbide-based material by refractory brazing, wherein the parts are contacted with an intermetallic filler and the assembly of the parts and the filler is heated to a brazing temperature equal to the melting point of the filler in order to form a refractory joint. Said intermetallic filler includes 1-18 wt.% of cobalt and 82-99 wt % of silicon, and the resulting joint is a thick joint, i.e. one with a thickness generally of 0.1-0.5 mm. The resulting thick refractory joint produced according to the method is also disclosed. Assemblies of silicon carbide parts comprising thick joints produced according to the above method enable structures, apparatuses and components having complex shapes and working temperatures of up to 1000 DEG C or more to be produced with a high degree of accuracy.
