Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain bonding substance excellent in corrosion resistance by using glass which has thermal expansion coefficient being smaller by 1-10X10<-7>/ deg.C than the thermal expansion coefficients of alpha-alumina and B''- alumina. CONSTITUTION:A solid electrolyte beta''-alumina to be 2 is arranged at the inner periphery of an alpha-alumina ring 1 for electric insulation, and glass powder is applied in slurry conditions, and is heated in the air so as to form a glass, with which those are joined together. In case that the thermal expansion coefficient of the glass is smaller than those of both aluminas, compressed stress remains at the surface of the glass after joining, and it improves the strength of the bonding substance. But, it if becomes too small, cracks occur inside the glass, which lowers the strength, so favorable strength and airtightness can be obtained within the range that the difference between both thermal expansion coefficients is 1-10X10<-7>/ deg.C. The glass, which has the above- mentioned thermal expansion coefficient, can be achieved by using glass in composition of 50-60mol% SiO2, 27-40mol% B2O3 and 10-13mol% Na2O from wettability, bonding property, etc., on limiting SiO2 to a maximum of 63mol% from corrosion resistance.

The above conventional technology mainly focuses on corrosion resistance with molten sodium and sodium polysulfide and leaving compressive stress in the glass of the bonded body, but does not consider the relationship between the bonding strength of the bonded body and the difference in coefficient of thermal expansion. However, the appropriate difference in coefficient of thermal expansion for a bonded body is unknown, and the composition of the glass is a 7-component system and a multi-component system in consideration of the formability for forming into a ring shape, and it is difficult to adjust the components when making the glass. There were problems such as being sloppy.

The strength of conventional glass is extremely sensitive to minute scratches and defects on the glass surface, and especially when tensile stress remains, the strength decreases significantly. On the other hand, if the coefficient of thermal expansion of the glass is smaller than that of both aluminas, compressive stress will remain on the surface of the glass after bonding, improving the strength of the bonded body, but if the t'S becomes too low, cracks will occur inside the glass. Good strength and airtightness can be obtained when the difference in expansion coefficient is in the range of 1 to 10XIO"/"C, which is not preferable because it lowers the strength and causes poor airtightness.
