Description
Procédé et baguette de soudure pour le soudage de l'aluminium et de ses alliages Le soudage au chalumeau de l'aluminium et de ses alliages est un procédé bien connu et générale- ment fort apprécié pour les avantages qu'il présente.
Toutefois, du fait que les pièces à forte teneur d'aluminium se revêtent immédiatement au soudage d'une couche superficielle d'oxyde extrêmement te- nace,
<B>l</B>e soudage ou le brasage au chalumeau ne pou vait jusqu'à ce jour se faire qu'à l'aide de flux <B>dé-</B> capants particulièrement énergiques. Or ces flux cons- tituent un lourd handicap pour le procédé: ils sont en effet en général fortement hygroscopiques ;
leur application est délicate, car ils doivent être soigneu sement répartis sur la pièce à souder et sur la ba guette de soudure ; au soudage ils émettent la plupart du temps des vapeurs fortement toxiques et laissent un résidu difficile à éliminer, presque :toujours hygro scopique et corrosif.
Tous les essais tendant à utiliser des baguettes de soudure capables de souder impec- cablement sans l'aide d'un flux ont donné jusqu'à présent des résultats négatifs.
On a trouvé maintenant qu'il est possible d'ef fectuer sur l'aluminium et ses alliages des soudures et des brasures de qualité irréprochable sans l'interven- tion d'un flux en utilisant des baguettes de soudure à base d'alliages d'aluminium contenant de 0,001 à 0,5 0/o de lithium.
On a trouvé en outre que, de façon inattendue, les meilleurs résultats sont obtenus avec les teneurs les plus faibles en lithium. D'une façon générale des teneurs comprises entre 0,002 et 0,11/o peuvent être avantageusement utilisées.
Parmi les alliages pour le soudage sans flux les plus appropriés, on peut citer les alliages aluminium- silicium, par exemple ceux contenant 5 à 20 0/o de silicium, et, plus particulièrement ceux contenant 10 à 15,0/o de silicium.
Les baguettes de soudure utilisées selon l'inven tion ne devraient, de préférence, pas contenir, à part le silicium, plus de 5 @0/o d'éléments alliés à l'alumi- nium. Les meilleurs résultats ont été obtenus avec moins de 30/o de ces éléments,
et parmi ces éléments avec l'argent, le zinc et le cuivre.
<I>Exemple</I> Pour préparer une pièce de fonte d'aluminium à 12 0/o de silicium présentant une grosse fissure, on utilise une baguette de soudure composée de
EMI0001.0127
0,005 <SEP> à <SEP> 0,010/o <SEP> lithium
<tb> 10 <SEP> à <SEP> 15 <SEP> 0/o <SEP> silicium au maximum 1,5 0/o autres éléments alliés ; le reste aluminium.
Après chauffage modéré de la pièce en utilisant une flamme oxyacétyléniqueneutre ou légèrement réductrice, on commence par en frotter quelque peu la surface avec la baguette de soudure tout en la fai sant fondre, afin de faciliter l'élimination de la cou che d'oxyde ;
celle-ci surnage la soudure en fusion et est éliminée de ce bain au fur et à mesure de la fusion de la baguette. Le joint .uniforme et de belle apparence que l'on obtient est exempt d'inclusions d'oxydes et atteint une résistance égale à celle du métal de base.
Welding process and rod for welding aluminum and its alloys Torch welding of aluminum and its alloys is a well-known process and generally highly appreciated for the advantages it offers.
However, since parts with a high aluminum content are immediately coated with an extremely tough oxide surface layer,
<B> </B> welding or torch brazing has hitherto only been possible with the aid of particularly energetic <B> stripping </B> fluxes. However, these flows constitute a serious handicap for the process: they are in fact generally highly hygroscopic;
their application is delicate, because they must be carefully distributed over the part to be welded and on the welding bar; on welding, most of the time they emit highly toxic vapors and leave a residue that is almost difficult to eliminate: always hygro scopic and corrosive.
All attempts to use solder rods capable of welding impeccably without the aid of flux have so far given negative results.
It has now been found that it is possible to carry out irreproachable quality welds and solders on aluminum and its alloys without the intervention of a flux by using welding rods based on alloys. aluminum containing 0.001 to 0.5 0 / o lithium.
It has furthermore been found that, unexpectedly, the best results are obtained with the lowest lithium contents. In general, contents of between 0.002 and 0.11 / o can be advantageously used.
Among the most suitable alloys for fluxless welding, mention may be made of aluminum-silicon alloys, for example those containing 5 to 20% of silicon, and more particularly those containing 10 to 15.0% of silicon.
The solder rods used according to the invention should preferably not contain, apart from silicon, more than 50% of aluminum alloy elements. The best results have been obtained with less than 30 / o of these elements,
and among these elements with silver, zinc and copper.
<I> Example </I> To prepare a piece of cast aluminum at 12 0 / o silicon with a large crack, we use a welding rod composed of
EMI0001.0127
0.005 <SEP> to <SEP> 0.010 / o <SEP> lithium
<tb> 10 <SEP> to <SEP> 15 <SEP> 0 / o <SEP> silicon at most 1.5 0 / o other alloyed elements; the rest aluminum.
After moderate heating of the part using a neutral or slightly reducing oxyacetylene flame, the surface is rubbed somewhat with the welding rod while melting it, in order to facilitate the elimination of the oxide layer;
this floats on the molten solder and is removed from this bath as the rod melts. The resulting uniform and attractive seal is free of oxide inclusions and achieves strength equal to that of the parent metal.
