A bonding member that includes a resin body defining an airtight interior, and a bonding material enclosed in the interior of the resin body. The bonding material is a mixed powder that includes a plurality of particles of a first metal powder and a plurality of particles of a second metal powder. The second metal powder reacts with the first metal powder when melted to thereby produce an intermetallic compound. The resin body has a melting point higher than a softening point of the mixed powder.

The invention relates to a method for producing a connection between a first metallic component (2) and a second metallic component (3), wherein at least one of the two metallic components (2, 3) is powder-metallurgically manufactured from a sintering material and the connection is produced by means of soldering in a connection area (4) formed between the two metallic components (2, 3). The surface (9), which forms a part of the connection area (4), of the metallic component (2 or 3) manufactured from the sintering material is compacted prior to the soldering.

In some examples, the disclosure describes a technique that includes covering a joint surface of a first part including a titanium aluminum (TiAl) alloy with a braze material including aluminum, where covering the joint surface includes at least one of electroplating the braze material on the joint surface, hot dipping the braze material on the joint surface, or positioning a foil of the braze material adjacent to the joint surface, positioning a second part including a titanium alloy in contact with the first part to define a joint region, where the joint region includes the braze material interposed between the second part and the joint surface of the first part, and heating the joint region to at least partially melt the braze material to form a braze joint connecting the first part to the second part.
