A method for brazing is provided, in which an amorphous or partially amorphous brazing foil, having a composition with a metalloid content of 10 to 30 at. %, is arranged at a joining point of two or more parts. The brazing foil is in the form of a wound ring-shaped strip which has a short-circuited current path between at least two layers lying one on top of the other. The brazing foil inductively heated, melted and a brazed connection of the parts is produced.

The present disclosure relates generally to an improved design of a metal-cored welding wire electrode for use on a high deposition rate welding process that resistively preheats the wire prior to being subjected to the welding current. The preheat circuit reduces the welding current drawn by the electrode so that higher wire feed speeds, and thus higher deposition rates, may be obtained. The metal-cored welding wire includes both a higher fill rate (a greater percentage of the welding wire is the granular core) along with added sulfur and an added bead wetting agent. The bead wetting agent may be one or more of selenium, tellurium, arsenic, gallium, bismuth, and tin. The improved metal-cored welding wire leads to an enhanced weld deposit appearance that means the weld deposits are less likely to be rejected as unusable.

A solder preform is provided, at least one surface of the solder preform (C) is provided with a plurality of protruding portions and/or recessing portions provided at a certain interval.

A brazing sheet (1) includes a core material (11) composed of an Al alloy that contains 0.20-3.0 mass % of Mg; and a filler material (12) layered on the core material and composed of an Al alloy that contains Mg, 6.0-13.0 mass % of Si, and more than 0.050 mass % and 1.0 mass % or less of Bi. The Mg concentration of the filler material becomes continuously lower in a direction from a boundary (122) with the core material to an outermost surface (121). The Mg concentration of the filler material is 0.150 mass % or less at a first depth from the outermost surface that is ⅛ of a thickness (t.sub.f) of the filler material and is 5-90% of the amount of Mg in the core material at a second depth from the outermost surface that is ⅞ of the thickness of the filler material.

A transient liquid phase (TLP) composition includes a plurality of first high melting temperature (HMT) particles, a plurality of second HMT particles, and a plurality of low melting temperature (LMT) particles. Each of the plurality of first HMT particles have a core-shell structure with a core formed from a first high HMT material and a shell formed from a second HMT material that is different than the first HMT material. The plurality of second HMT particles are formed from a third HMT material that is different than the second HMT material and the plurality of LMT particles are formed from a LMT material. The LMT particles have a melting temperature less than a TLP sintering temperature of the TLP composition and the first, second, and third HMT materials have a melting point greater than the TLP sintering temperature.

The present invention relates to a composition based on yttrium oxide, on a cerium-based compound and on an organic compound and its use in the field of welding as stop-off product. The composition comprises, in an aqueous medium: yttrium oxide particles; particles of a cerium-based compound: which is cerium oxide; or which is prepared by the process consisting in causing a colloidal dispersion D, which is obtained by the neutralization of an aqueous cerium nitrate solution by a basic aqueous solution, to undergo heating; an organic compound chosen from the group formed by polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl alcohol, carboxymethyl cellulose and hydroxyethyl cellulose.

A tubing assembly is provided that can comprise a plurality of tubes or lumens that can be disposed within a head of a peristaltic pump. The tubing assembly can provide a flow rate or volume capacity that is generally equal to or greater than that achieved with a comparable prior art tube while operating at higher pressures than that possible using the prior art tube. Further, in accordance with some embodiments, the tubing assembly can achieve a longer working life than a comparable prior art tube, and the load on the pump motor can be reduced such that the pump life is increased and/or a larger pump motor is not required to achieve such advantageous results.

A high temperature substrate coating to mitigate liquid metal embrittlement (LME) cracking in automobile vehicles includes a substrate. A coating is disposed on the substrate, the coating being one of a zinc-based material and an aluminum-based material, with the coating having a melting point of at least 500° C.
