Definitions
- Joining of aluminum by brazing is a well known process due to the strong and uniform joints that can be produced between aluminum parts of varying shapes and types.
- There are four major brazing processes utilized for the joining of aluminum parts these are: (a) the flux dip brazing process wherein the parts to be joined are dipped into a molten flux bath utilizing a mixture of chloride and fluoride salts; (b) the furnace brazing process which employs a small amount of flux, for example a chloride salt; (c) the controlled atmosphere brazing process which uses a small amount of fluoridic salt and an inert gas atmosphere, for example nitrogen, argon or helium; and (d) the vacuum brazing method which uses no flux but instead utilizes a reduced pressure atmosphere for the joining of the aluminum parts.
- the flux dip brazing process is associated with environmental problems arising out of the disposal of the used flux baths.
- the aluminum parts joined by the flux dip brazing process must be thoroughly cleaned after fluxing to avoid the corrosive effects of the residual flux on the aluminum surfaces.
- the controlled atmosphere brazing process employs an inert gas atmosphere, for example argon or nitrogen gas atmosphere, in the brazing furnace.
- the inert gas atmosphere brazing employs a relatively small quantity of non- corrosive flux which need not to be cleaned from the brazed surfaces.
- the fluoridic flux is expensive and in composite brazing sheets undesirable interactions between the fluoride flux and magnesium limit the maximum core alloy magnesium content to about 0.3%.
- no flux is employed and the method is suitable for joining those aluminum alloys which contain about 0.1-1.75% by weight magnesium or even more. Due to the magnesium content of the aluminum alloy core, the brazed assembly is capable of exhibiting higher strength properties. Vacuum brazing requires a well sealed furnace, careful control of the pressure within the furnace, both of which may impart higher costs to the brazing process. Additionally, in the vacuum brazing process, assembly tolerances must be critically controlled and the cleanliness of the parts is imperative.
- an aluminum filler alloy which could be utilized for the brazing of either magnesium-free or magnesium- containing aluminum alloy parts by controlled atmosphere brazing or by vacuum brazing.
- an aluminum filler alloy, containing a controlled quantity of lithium cam be readily employed for the brazing of Mg-free and Mg-containing aluminum alloys using either the controlled atmosphere (inert gas) brazing method or the vacuum brazing process.
- the aluminum filler alloy of the invention contains from about 0.01 to about 0.30 % by weight of lithium and as a major alloying element silicon, generally within the limits from about 4 to about 18% by weight of the brazing alloy.
- U.S. patent 4,173,302 recommends the use of an aluminum brazing alloy which contains 4-20% silicon and between 0.00001 and 1.0% by weight, preferably between 0.005 and 0.1 by weight at least one of the elements of sodium, potassium and lithium.
- the alloy can be utilized in the fluxless brazing of aluminum-containing articles in a non-oxidizing atmosphere or in a low vacuum.
- the addition of these alkali metals to the brazing alloy is claimed to increase the corrosion- resistance of the brazed joint.
- the use of these alkali metal-containing brazing alloys is restricted to fluxless, controlled atmosphere brazing and the beneficial effects of these alkali metals are considered equivalent .
- U.S. Patent 5,069,980 (Namba et al) describes a clad aluminum alloy suitable for fluxless vacuum brazing.
- the cladding material is to be used on both sides of a core sheet . It contains 6-14% silicon, 0-0.6% magnesium, balance aluminum and additionally, at least one of the following elements may also be incorporated in the cladding alloy for the improvement of its corrosion-resistance: Pb, Sn, Ni, Cu, Zn, Be, Li and Ge.
- the role of these additives in the alloy are equated as far as their corrosion-resistance improving effect is concerned.
- the universal applicability of the filler alloy of the invention for the brazing of both magnesium-containing and magnesium-free aluminum alloys eliminates the need to segregate these alloys and further provides the freedom to use whichever brazing method is preferred by the manufacturer of brazed aluminum assemblies.
- a filler alloy is provided which is suitable for brazing both magnesium-free and magnesium-containing aluminum alloys by using either the controlled atmosphere brazing process
- the filler alloy contains from about 0.01 to about 0.30% lithium (Li) and from about 4 to about 18% silicon (Si) , zinc (Zn) up to about 2%, manganese (mn) up to about 1%, impurities not exceeding about 0.15%, balance aluminum (Al) .
- the filler alloy may also contain iron (Fe) in an amount not exceeding about 0.30%, copper (Cu) not exceeding about 0.10%.
- the filler alloy of the invention is useful for the brazing of aluminum core alloys containing magnesium (Mg) up to about 1.30% by weight.
- the preferred filler alloy contains from bout 0.01 to about 0.18% lithium.
- Figure 1 graphically shows the correlation between fillet area sizes and filler alloy lithium contents within the range from 0% to 0.30% for vacuum brazed tube-to-header radiator assemblies using aluminum alloy cores and lithium- containing filler alloy claddings.
- Figure 2 graphically shows the correlation between fillet area sizes and filler alloy lithium contents within the range from 0% to 0.30% for controlled atmosphere brazed tube-to- header assemblies using aluminum alloy cores and lithium-containing filler alloy claddings.
- Figure 3 graphically compares the effects of Li, Ca, Na and Be in the filler alloy on brazeability.
- This invention relates to the brazing of aluminum articles. More particularly, this invention relates to a novel Li-containing aluminum filler alloy suitable for the brazing of both Mg-free and Mg-containing aluminum alloy articles by either the controlled atmosphere brazing process or by the vacuum brazing method.
- controlled atmosphere brazing or "CAB” refer to a brazing process which utilizes an inert atmosphere, for example nitrogen, argon or helium in the brazing of aluminum alloy articles.
- vacuum brazing refers to a process which employs reduced pressure in the brazing of aluminum alloy articles.
- the filler alloy of the present invention contains from about 0.01 to about 0.30% lithium. In addition to the lithium content, the filler alloy also contains from about 4 to about 18% Si. The filler alloy may also contain additional constituents, for example, zinc up to about 2%, manganese up to about 1%, iron in amounts up to about 0.30% and copper up to about 0.10%.
- the aluminum filler alloy generally also contains the usual unavoidable impurities up to a total amount of about 0.15%. For vacuum brazing, the filler alloy may, if desired, also contain from about 0.1 to about 1.75% Mg.
- the filler alloy When he filler alloy is employed in the vacuum brazing process, then it preferably contains from about 0.01% to about 0.18% lithium. This amount of lithium in the filler alloy is sufficient to eliminate the need for gettering with magnesium and provides a more satisfactory atmosphere in the vacuum brazing furnace.
- gettering refers to the removal of the oxygen content of the furnace by the chemical reaction of the magnesium with the oxygen. Additionally, the elimination or the reduction of the required magnesium level in the vacuum brazing furnace through the use of the lithium-containing filler alloy extends the furnace life.
- the lithium content of the filler alloy is also preferably maintained within the range from about 0.01 to about 0.18%.
- the novel filler alloy is generally employed in the form of a brazing sheet rolled from ingots having the desired alloy composition. Regardless of which brazing process the brazing sheet is going to be used in, for best results it is applied to the surface of the aluminum core alloy through cladding. Cladding of the aluminum core alloy with the brazing sheet is accomplished by methods well-known in the art, for example by pressure welding through a rolling process. Depending on the assembly to be made the brazing or filler alloy sheet may be applied to one or both sides of the aluminum core alloy.
- the thickness of the brazing sheet applied to the surface of the core alloy is usually within the range from bout 5 to about 20% of the thickness of the aluminum composite. Thus, for example, if the thickness of the aluminum composite is about 0.1 inch (2.54mm), then the thickness of the cladding applied to the surface of the aluminum core can vary between 0.005 and 0.020 inch (0.127 - 0.508 mm) .
- the types of aluminum core alloys, which are clad with the novel filler or brazing alloy sheet, are generally selected on the basis of the end use of the brazed assembly.
- Suitable aluminum core alloys which can be clad with the novel filler alloy composition include those aluminum alloys which are classified as 3XXX, 5XXX and 6XXX aluminum alloys by the Aluminum Association, the 3XXX alloys being preferred.
- the clad aluminum composite may be subjected to a heat-treatment to improve its physical properties.
- the clad composites of the present invention may be subjected to a heat- treatment equivalent, for example, to H-temper.
- the clad aluminum alloy compositions of the present invention can be readily employed for making brazed heat exchanger assemblies, such as radiators and components for such heat exchangers. Other applications are also possible, for example, utilization of the aluminum alloy brazing composition in the manufacture of evaporators.
- the brazing of the assemblies made from the aluminum core alloys clad with the Li- containing brazing sheet is accomplished according to principles well-known in the brazing art. For example, in the CAB process, flux can be applied to the aluminum parts to be joined, then the assembly is preheated, for example to a temperature in the range from about 425°-475°F (224°-246°C) .
- the assembly is then transferred to a prebraze chamber where it is soaked for about 3- 15 minutes at about 750°F (399°C) . Subsequently, the hot assembly is transferred to the brazing furnace which is purged with dry nitrogen. The assembly is kept then for 2-3 minutes at about 1095°-1130-°F (591°-610°C) in the CAB furnace. The brazed assembly is then cooled, removed, and applied for its intended use.
- the assembly to be brazed is usually preheated to about 425°- 700°F (224°-371°C) and then introduced into the vacuum furnace. In the vacuum furnace, the preheated assembly is heated in stages to about 1095°-1120°F (591°-604°C) and then kept at temperature for about 3 minutes. Subsequently, the brazed assembly is cooled to about 1050°- 1070°F (566°-577°C) and then removed from the vacuum furnace to be used for its intended purpose. In the case of Mg-containing and also
- Mg-free aluminum core alloys regardless of the brazing methods applied, the strengths of joints formed as measured by the area, weight or length of the filler in the joints of the assemblies, are substantially the same. This fact indicates that the novel, lithium-containing filler alloy can be readily employed for the production of vacuum or CAB brazed assemblies made from both Mg-free and Mg-containing aluminum core alloys when such core alloys clad with the novel Li-containing brazing sheet .
- Example 1 Experiments were conducted to establish the effectiveness of a lithium-containing filler alloy for the production of satisfactory brazed joints between Mg-containing aluminum core alloy parts. The experiments were conducted by brazing radiator test assemblies by both the vacuum brazing and controlled atmosphere brazing methods.
- Aluminum brazing sheets having a thickness of 0.015 inch (0.0381 mm) and a composition shown in Table I, were roll clad on one side with the filler alloys having varying lithium contents and an overall composition shown in Table II.
- the cladding layer on the cores was equivalent to about 10% of the total thickness of the clad composite.
- the compositions were partially annealed to the H-24 temper in dry nitrogen at about 540°F (282°C) for a time period of about 4 hours.
- the partially annealed core alloy-filler alloy composites were then used to make automotive radiator tube and header test samples which were then brazed together by the vacuum brazing method and also by the controlled atmosphere brazing method under conditions described below.
- the strength of the joints formed in both types of brazing methods were then tested by measuring the size of the areas of the fillets formed in the joints. Table I nposition of Aluminum Core Al
- the degreased assemblies were preheated in vacuum to 450°F (232°C) for 5 minutes, then they were transferred to the vacuum brazing furnace chamber where they were step-wise heated at first to 1000°F (538°C) in 10 minutes, then to 1095°-1120°F (590°-604°C) in 6 minutes. The assemblies are then kept within the 1095°-1120°F (590°-604°C) range for about 3 minutes, then
- a NOCOLOKTM type flux containing a fluoridic water-insoluble salt, was deposited on the surface of the degreased assemblies in an amount corresponding to about 5 grams/m 2 surface.
- the fluxed assemblies were preheated to 450°F
