Abstract

Ceramics have been widely used in engineering applications due to their excellent hardness and wear resistance. Connecting ceramics and metals into composite parts and applying them to high temperature and corrosive use bar environments not only allows for normal use in harsh environments, but also improves the service life of the materials. The connection of ceramic and metal due to the large difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion between the dissimilar materials, will produce large residual thermal stress, thus hindering the further development of ceramic/metal dissimilar materials connection. At present, diffusion welding can not only realize the connection between them, but also can effectively alleviate the residual thermal stress between ceramics and metals due to the large difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion, which has a great protective effect on ceramics, and protects the integrity of the dissimilar materials connectors. Therefore, diffusion welding is used for the connection of ceramics and metals. This paper reviews the research progress in the realization of ceramic/metal composite parts using solid-phase diffusion welding, liquid-phase diffusion welding and partially transient liquid-phase diffusion welding, and analyzes the microstructure and mechanical properties of the interface. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of solid-phase diffusion welding, liquid-phase diffusion welding and partially transient liquid-phase diffusion welding are briefly analyzed.
