  • Publication number: 20230054798
    Abstract: Provided is a metal jointed body, joined by solid-phase joining in the atmosphere, in which no protrusion of molten joining material occurs, that improves dimensional stability. A metal jointed body is formed by (A) making Ag films of two metal laminated bodies opposed to each other, the metal jointed body being configured by sequentially laminating a Zn film and an Ag film on an Al substrate serving as a member to be joined, and (B) bringing the Ag films into contact with each other, then (C) heating is performed while pressurizing, and closely adhering and solid-phase joining the Ag films to each other. The completed metal jointed body is a portion where Al—Ag alloy layers are provided on both sides of an Ag—Zn—Al alloy layer to join the Al substrates to each other.

  • Publication number: 20210305194
    Abstract: Provided is a metal joint (5) including: a Ag—Cu—Zn layer (7); and Cu—Zn layers (6) joined to both surfaces of the Ag—Cu—Zn layer (7), wherein the Ag—Cu—Zn layer (7) has a composition in which a Cu component is 1 atm % or more and 10 atm % or less, a Zn component is 1 atm % or more and 40 atm % or less, and the balance is a Ag component with respect to the total 100 atm %, and wherein the Cu—Zn layers (6) have a composition in which a Zn component is 10 atm % or more and 40 atm % or less and the balance is a Cu component with respect to the total 100 atm %. It is therefore possible to obtain the metal joint (5), which is capable of joining metal base materials to each other without being limited to aluminum-based materials, and also have high mechanical strength.
