Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of hybrid assembly of at least two parts made of ceramic-based materials or ceramic matrix composite by means of a heated filler material without total melting of this material. bring.
- Brazing consists in positioning a filler material, also called brazing alloy or brazing, between the parts to be assembled or near and to melt it completely so that it fills the clearance between the parts and creates, at cooling, a joint between the parts. After cooling, the parts are thus assembled by a solder joint.
- the filler material has a lower melting temperature than that of the materials to be assembled, so there is no melting of the parts to be assembled during the brazing process.
- brazings comprising from 40 to 97 atomic% of silicon and from 60 to 3% of another metallic element.
- these silicon-rich solders can also comprise from 15 to 19 atomic% of Pr (document FR-A-2 907 448-B1), from 30 to 44 atomic% Y (document FR-A- 2 936 176 ), or from 1 to 54% Nd (document FR-A-2 949 696), or be TiSi 2 (Elodie Jacques thesis, 2012, “Assembly of thin SiC / SiC composites: search for a composition of joint and an associated process ”).
- the brazing alloys are systematically completely melted. To obtain parts with good mechanical strength and having a satisfactory seal on either side of the joint, the assembly process must satisfy several criteria:
- the filler material can be non-reactive with the ceramic, that is to say that there is no reaction layer with formation of new compounds at the interface, but there is strong direct interactions between the filler material and the ceramic.
- the material can also have limited and controlled reactivity (formation of compounds at the interface which do not damage the bond). It must not lead to an uncontrolled exacerbated reaction with embrittlement of the filler material / ceramic interface and possibly of the ceramic.
- the filler material must cover the faces to be assembled well with the ceramic after the deposition and heat treatment steps.
- the filler material must be placed correctly on the faces to be assembled after deposition and must not leave these areas during the heat treatment.
- the filler material In the case of porous ceramics, such as composites, the filler material must not infiltrate the porous ceramic or very slightly so that the filler material remains positioned in the joint.
- an object of the present invention to provide a method of assembling at least two pieces of ceramic-based material, making it possible to:
- step c) bringing the filler material into contact with the two parts, d) heating the assembly obtained in step c), to an assembly temperature, and the assembly temperature being maintained for a period holding, e) Cooling of the assembly so as to form a joint between the two parts, and to assemble the two parts,
- the assembly temperature being lower than the temperature at which the filler material is completely melted.
- the assembly temperature is lower than the melting temperature of the filler material. By lower, we mean that it is strictly lower.
- melting point is meant a temperature at which all of the filler material is in the liquid state. In the case of an alloy, it is the liquidus temperature. In the particular case of a eutectic alloy, it is the temperature of the eutectic. In the case of an alloy offset from the eutectic, that is to say a hyper eutectic or hypo eutectic alloy, it is the temperature of the liquidus. In the particular case of a defined compound with congruent fusion, this is the melting point.
- ceramic defined broadly includes non-metallic inorganic solids.
- ceramic a material obtained by sintering non-metallic inorganic powders (for example carbides, silicides, oxides, nitrides).
- ceramic matrix composites also means a material formed from the association of a ceramic fiber (for example alumina fiber, silicon carbide fiber, carbon fiber) embedded in a ceramic matrix produced by liquid or gas route. .
- the invention differs fundamentally from the prior art in that the filler material, during the hybrid assembly, is not completely melted. It is either partially melted (that is to say in a semi-solid state) or not melted (that is to say in the solid state).
- a material which is not completely melted is a material which has a mixed liquid / solid phase (also called semi-solid state), particularly in majority in solid phase, even more particularly a mixed phase for which the mass percentage of liquid is less than 10%, preferably less than 5%.
- a mixed liquid / solid phase also called semi-solid state
- different compositions of filler material can be used, which makes it possible to use a wide choice of compositions depending on the intended application.
- the hybrid assembly method according to the invention allows, firstly, to coat in a controlled and controlled manner the areas to be assembled with the filler material, then to assemble the coated parts, in particular avoiding the problems associated at wetting, at the formation of fillets, or at the leaks of the filler material outside the areas to be assembled.
- the filler material is either solid or semi-solid. This coating can also be architectured.
- Maintaining the filler material in its deposition zone is easier in solid or semi-solid phase than with total melting as implemented in brazing. The fact of not melting the filler material or only partially promotes the retention of the filler material in the joint.
- the method according to the invention ensures good mechanical strength of the joints formed.
- the strength of the joint, for the same given filler material is at least equal to, or even better than, that of a traditional brazing process (implementing the total melting of the filler material or of the solder).
- the process according to the invention is a hybrid assembly process, not reactive or with limited and controlled reactivity, leading to the formation of a refractory or moderately refractory joint, depending on the nature of the filler material.
- refractory is meant that the seal has good resistance to the effects induced by high temperatures (satisfactory mechanical properties at least up to 1000 ° C, even 1600 ° C).
- moderately refractory is meant that the seal has good resistance to the effects induced by medium temperatures up to 600 ° C., or even 800 ° C.
- Parts of large dimensions and / or complex shapes can thus be assembled.
- the filler material is an alloy, and the assembly temperature is lower than the temperature of the solidus of the filler material.
- the filler material is an alloy and the assembly temperature is between the solidus and liquidus temperatures of the filler material.
