Article: New findings reported from G.W. Liu and co-authors describe advances in ceramic processing research.

According to a study from Xian, People's Republic of China, "ZrO2 ceramic/stainless steel joints were fabricated by pressureless brazing using a Ag-Cu filler metal and a TiH2 powder pre-coating. The microstructure and microchemistry of the joint cross section were characterized and analyzed by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS)."

"The effects of brazing conditions on the joint shear strength were also investigated. The results showed that there existed three zones with distinct microstructural differences crossing the brazing interlayer. A reaction layer and a Ti-rich sublayer were formed at the ZrO2/filler ...
