# Ceramic-Metal Compounds Produced by Means of Vacuum Brazing

*Manfred Boretius, 12. June 2019*

![Ceramic-Metal Compounds Produced by Means of Vacuum Brazing](https://info.listemann.com/hubfs/creamic%20metal%20compounds.jpg)

## Vacuum brazing makes almost any material combination between high performance ceramics and metals possible.  

With the aid of the universally applicable vacuum brazing technique, any high-performance ceramic can be firmly joined to almost any metallic structural material. This allows to apply special material properties exactly where they are needed.The use of active brazing alloys in a vacuum results in the direct wetting of oxide and non-oxide ceramics as well as the super-hard materials cBN and diamonds. Besides the production of components, this process combination is also suitable for the metallization of ceramics and the application of functional structures onto ceramic substrates.

### **Accordingly, the following advantages result for this joining technique:**

- Strong metallurgical bonds and consequently highly loadable and temperature-resistant joints
- Almost any combination of materials between ceramics and between ceramics and metals
- Active brazing eliminates the need for a prior metallization of the ceramic, which is why basically any high-performance ceramic can be brazed
- Flux-free soldering in air; applicable by using special alloys

 

### The fields of application of this production technology are manifold:

- Food and pharmaceutical industry
- Mechanical engineering
- Sensor technology and metrology
- Cutting tool, watch and jewellery industry
- Security engineering
