Brazing alloy compositions and methods

Various braze alloy compositions are described, along with methods for using them. In one instance, a boron-free, high-temperature braze alloy includes selected amounts of chromium, hafnium, and nickel. The braze alloy can be used, for example, as a component in a wide gap braze mixture where a high...

Zusammenfassung:Various braze alloy compositions are described, along with methods for using them. In one instance, a boron-free, high-temperature braze alloy includes selected amounts of chromium, hafnium, and nickel. The braze alloy can be used, for example, as a component in a wide gap braze mixture where a higher or lower melting point superalloy and/or brazing powder is used. The braze alloys may permit joining or repairing of superalloy articles with complex shapes, and may be used in high temperature applications. In some other braze alloy embodiments, a nickel- or cobalt-based braze composition can contain selected amounts of boron, but includes restricted amounts of chromium.
