    Isothermal solid–liquid transitions in the (Ni,B)/ZrB2 system as revealed by sessile drop experiments

    In the framework of joining processes of ultrahigh temperature ceramics (UHTCs), sessile drop experiments were performed in the Ni–B/ZrB2 system in the range 1110° ≤ T ≤ 1200 °C. They show that, at temperatures b...

    SiC/SiC and SiC/Kovar joining by Ni–Si and Mo interlayers

    A composite joining technique, using a Ni–56Si filler alloy and Mo as interlayers, was used to join SiC to SiC and to Kovar. The wetting of the Ni–Si alloy on SiC ceramic was studied in a vacuum at 1,350 °C by...
