摘要 |
A method of treating a heat exchanger made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy comprising applying onto the surface of the aluminum heat exchanger a noncorrosive flux having a flux core with an outer coating of zinc or a zinc alloy formed by vacuum vapor deposition or ion plating, and then heating the resulting heat exchanger to effect brazing. A diffused zinc layer forms on the surface of the heat exchanger and protects it from corrosion, in particular, from electrolytic corrosion.
