Definitions

  • the invention relates to a solderable shape memory alloy according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for brazing according to claim 4.
  • Shape memory alloys of the special brass type (Cu / Zn / Al system) are known (for example DE-OS 2 711 576; DE-OS 2 055 755; AT-PS 333 522).
  • alloys of this type are annealed between 600 ° C and 950 ° C in order to obtain the highest possible proportion of ⁇ -phase. They are then quenched to a critical temperature M S to obtain a metastable martensitic phase.
  • M S can be above or below room temperature.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a solderable shape memory alloy and an associated soldering process, wherein the memory effect on the finished assembled component can be fully utilized while avoiding complex process steps and devices.
  • the invention is intended, in particular, to avoid the grain growth of the memory alloy occurring with any heating and to effectively reduce its susceptibility to cracking.
  • the basic guiding principle of the invention is to use a braze, the flow temperature of which is sufficiently high above the annealing temperature of the memory alloy in order to meet the minimum requirements for dimensional stability and strength of the solder joint at the annealing temperature required ensure, and at the same time suppress their grain growth at high temperatures by choosing the appropriate composition of the memory alloy.
  • the cast ingot produced in this way was then rolled out at a temperature of 850 ° C. into a heavy plate of 5 mm thickness.
  • a disk with a diameter of 27 mm was cut out of this sheet.
  • the alloy of the above composition has a martensitic transition temperature M S of +60 o C.
  • a cylindrical body of 15 mm axial length was separated from a copper rod of 15 mm in diameter.
  • the parts to be soldered coaxially, the disk made of memory alloy and the copper cylinders were coated with the flux "Tenacity 5" (trade name of the British company Johnson Matthey) on one of their end faces. Then the copper cylinder was put on the disc and placed both parts by means of a propane flame to a ca.
  • a memory alloy of the following composition was melted in an induction furnace using the method given in Example I and then rolled out to form a sheet:
  • This alloy has a temperature M S of martensitic transformation of -50 o C.
  • a part was made from copper and memory alloy and soldered together on the face side using the means mentioned. Instead of cooling from the soldering temperature of 850 ° C to room temperature, the propane flame was adjusted in such a way that the workpiece was only cooled to dark red heat (700 ° C), after which it was kept at this temperature for a few minutes and then quenched in water. The test on the longitudinally divided workpiece showed a perfect solder connection.
  • the figure shows the grain size d in mm as a function of the nickel content for a series of memory alloys of the Cu / Zn / Al / Ni type.
  • the alloys investigated were subjected to solution annealing at 950 C for 5 min in order to completely convert their structure into the ⁇ phase, and then quenched in water. Their composition varied within the limits:
  • the total copper and nickel content was therefore always 70%.
  • the diagram shows the grain-refining effect of the addition of nickel. While the average diameter of the crystallites for the nickel-free Cu / Zn / Al alloy was still approx. 1.9 mm, an addition of nickel of just 1% almost brought a reduction a third of that value. With a nickel content of 4%, the grain size had dropped to a little more than 0.2 mm, almost a tenth of the original size of conventional memory alloys of this type. In contrast, nickel additions of more than 4% no longer proved sensible.
  • the invention is in no way limited to the alloys and process steps given in the examples.
  • all Cu / Zn / Al / Ni alloys with 0.5 to 4% nickel, predominantly having the ⁇ phase can be used.
  • alloys with the following composition meet this requirement:
  • the flow temperature of the braze solder is sufficiently high above the solution annealing temperature of the memory alloy, which must at least be observed in order to achieve one to convert a high proportion (ideally 100%) of their structure into the ⁇ phase.
  • the flux used in soldering should prevent the aluminum from being oxidized and the formation of a high-alumina slag layer.
  • the new memory alloy according to the invention creates the possibility of producing crack-free and tight solder connections on the basis of a hard solder between components made of memory alloy and another metallic material, without any memory properties of the finished workpiece being adversely affected by the soldering process.
