上記フッ化物系フラックスに対する上記コロイダルシリカの質量比が1/200~1/15である、フラックス液にある。
本例は、実施例及び比較例にかかる複数のフラックス液を作製し、その性能を比較評価する例である。具体的には、これらのフラックス液をそれぞれ用いて、熱交換器用のコア部を作製し、ろう付け性、及び親水性(すなわち、初期親水性及び親水持続性)の評価を行う。本例においては、コア部として試験用のミニコアを作製する。
各ミニコアにおけるろう付け接合部をカッターナイフにより切断し、フィンの接合長さL1をフィンの山部の長さL2の総和で割算して100分率で表した値(L1/L2×100)を接合率(%)とした。接合率が90%以上の場合を「A+」と評価し、接合率が70%以上かつ90%未満の場合を「A」と評価し、接合率が70%未満の場合を「B」と評価した。
初期親水性の評価は、フィンと同じ構成の平板状の試験板を用いて行った。すなわち、試験板に対して各試料のフラックス液を噴霧し、ろう付けを想定した加熱を行った。具体的には、フラックス液が噴霧された試験板を窒素ガス雰囲気で温度600℃の炉内で3分間加熱した。次いで、各試験板上における水滴の接触角を測定することにより、親水性の評価を行った。接触角の測定は、協和界面化学株式会社製のFACE自動接触角計「CA-Z」を用いて行った。具体的には、室温で、試験板上に水滴を滴下し、30秒後の水滴の接触角を測定した。接触角が20°以下の場合を「A」と評価し、20°を超え30°以下の場合を「B」と評価し、30°を超える場合を「C」と評価した。
上述の試験板を純水に2分間浸漬した後、6分間風乾した。この純水への浸漬と風乾というサイクルを300回繰り返し実施した。その後、上述の親水性の評価と同様にして水滴との接触角を測定した。300サイクル後の接触角が25°以下の場合を「A」と評価し、25°を超え40°以下の場合を「B」と評価し、40°を超える場合を「C」と評価した。
次に、熱交換器の例について説明する。図5に示すごとく、熱交換器4は、実施例1における上述のミニコアと同様の構成を多数備えるコア部10を有する。具体的には、コア部10は、コルゲート状のフィン2と、チューブ3とを交互に多数積層してなり、フィン2とチューブ3とが実施例1のミニコアと同様にろう付け接合されている。
実施例1においては、ベアチューブとクラッドフィンとを接合させたミニコアについて説明したが、本例は、クラッドチューブとベアフィンとを接合させたミニコアについて説明する。図6及び図7に示すごとく、ミニコア1は、実施例1と同様にフィン2とチューブ3とを有し、コルゲート形状のフィン2がチューブ3に挟まれている。図6~図8に示すごとく、フィン2の表面には、ろう材層等が形成されておらず、フィン2は、ベアフィンである。
