Abstract

The wetting of perovskite ferroelectric BaTiO3-ceramics in vacuum by pure metals and some alloys, which contain the active component, in particular Cu-Sn-Ti melts, was investigated. Ti addition to Cu-Sn alloys increase the wettability strongly: contact angle drops from 136 degrees (for Cu-8,6 Sn) to ~20 degrees (for (Cu-8,6 Sn)- 25 Ti). The wetting of BaTiO3 in air medium by Ag-Cu-O melts at varied copper concentration at the temperature of silver melting was also investigated. The concentration of copper varied in the rang 0-17% (mas.). Increasing of copper concentration, and so increasing of oxygen concentration in melt lead to improvement of BaTiO3 wetting by Ag-Cu-O melts. It was established that brazing fillers on the base of Cu-Sn-Ti and Ag-Cu-O system may be used for the brazing of BaTiO3 (semiconducting ceramics in first case and ferroelectric - in last).
