One of the most important considerations to braze Cu-Al dissimilar materials is control of brittle metallic compound which makes it difficult to obtain a sound brazed joint. Nowdays, several attempts were made to control the metallic compound. But effective method for controlling metallic compound was not established. In this point of view, commercially pure aluminum and copper were used as base metal and Al-Si-X and Zn-Al-X alloy systems were developed as filler metal. Brazing was carried out to find optimum conditions for Cu-Al dissimilar joint. The results obtained in this study were summarized as follows: 1) The joint brazed by Al-Si-X filler metal showed good brazeability and mechanical properties. The tensile strength of the joint brazed over solidus temperature was more than 90% of Al base metal. Especially, the joint brazed at liquidus temperature was fractured in the Al base metal. 2) Fluorides fluxes(a mixture of potassium fluoro-aluminates) were used to improve surface cleanliness of base metal and wettability of Al-Si-X filler metal. It was melted at the temperature about 1$0^{\circ}C$ lower than that of the filler metal, and made appropriate brazing environment. Therefore, it could be a proper selection as flux.

The object of the research is to develop the flux for aluminum brazing. Five kinds of flux were applied to brazing joint with fin and tube structure using same filler metal. To estimate the performance of the developed flux, products analysis, differential thermal test, grain size test, observation of crystalline structure, tensile test, corrosion test were made. From the results of experiment, the following conculsions were obtained. 1. The optimum composition ratio (Wt) of AlF$_3$ and KF was 50-60% : 40-50% 2. The optimum melting point of the flux was 567-578$^{\circ}C$.

Aluminium and its alloys are widely used in brazing various components in automotive industries due to their properties like lightweight, excellent ductility, malleability and formability, high oxidation and corrosion resistance, and high electrical and thermal conductivity. However, high machinability and strength of aluminium alloys are a serious concern during casting operations. The generation of porosity caused by dissolved gases and modifiers affects seriously the strength and quality of cast product. Brazing of Al and its alloys requires careful monitoring of temperature since theses alloys are brazed at around the melting temperature in most of the aluminium alloys. Therefore, the development of low temperature brazing filler alloys as well as superior strength Al alloys for various engineering applications is always in demand. In various heat exchangers and automotive applications, poor strength of Al alloys is due to the inherent porosities and casting defects. The unstable mechanical properties is therefore needed to be controlled by adding various additive elements in the aluminium and its alloys, by a change in the heat treatment procedure or by modifying the microstructure. In this regard, this article reports the effect of various elements added in aluminium alloys to improve microstructure, brazeability, machinability, castability as well as to stabilize the mechanical properties.

A plate heat exchanger (PHE) normally uses vacuum brazing technology for connecting plates and fins. However, the reliability of high temperature brazing, especially with nickel-based filler metals containing boron the formation of brittle intermetallic compounds (IMCs) in brazed joints is of major concern. since they considerably degrade the mechanical properties. This research was examined the vacuum brazing of commercially SUS304 stainless steel with BNi-2 (Ni-Cr-B-Si) filler metal, and discussed to determine the influence of brazing temperatures on the microstructure and mechanical strength of brazed joints. In the metallographic analysis it is observed that considerable large area of Cr-B intermetallic compound phases at the brazing layer and the brazing tensile strength is related to removal of this brittle phase greatly. The mechanical properties of brazing layer could be stabilized through increasing the brazing temperature over $100^{\circ}C$ more than melting temperature of filler metals, and diffusing enough the brittle intermetallic compound formed in the brazing layer to the base metal.

Vacuum brazing method has been coming to an important process as one of the new fabricating techniques of metals and alloys. In this study, a vacuum brazing of SUS304 stainless steel with BNi-2 filler metal was carried out in $1{\times}10^{4}$ Torr of vacuum atmosphere. The formation of brittle intermetallic compounds in brazed joints between SUS304 stainless steel and BNi-2 filler metal is a major concern, since they considerably degrade the mechanical properties of joints. To obtain enough stable joining strength, it is necessary to understand the unique properties of brazing process with Ni-based filler metals containing boron. So, in this research we investigated the performance of SUS304/BNi-2 brazed system and the brazed joint properties were evaluated at room temperature by using tensile test. Metallurgical and fractographic analysis were used to characterize the microstructure, the mechanisms of brazing, and joint failure modes.
