The invention relates to the technical field of
brazing materials, in particular to silver
brazing filler metal and a preparation method thereof. The
brazing filler metal of the silver brazing
filler metal is in a foil shape containing a plurality of
nickel layers or a strip shape containing a plurality of
nickel cores; the foil-shaped silver solder comprises a plurality of
nickel layers and a plurality of silver
alloy layers, the nickel layers and the silver
alloy layers are alternately arranged, and the outermost layer is the silver
alloy layer; the strip-shaped silver brazing filler
metal comprises a plurality of nickel cores and a silver alloy part wrapping the outer sides of the nickel cores. A plurality of nickel layers or a plurality of nickel cores are fixed in a mold cavity at intervals, a multi-layer plate-shaped or multi-nickel-core columnar cast
ingot is obtained after the remaining brazing filler
metal liquid is cast and demolded, foil-shaped silver brazing filler
metal or strip-shaped silver brazing filler metal with the high
nickel content can be obtained through a conventional
machining mode, the
nickel content can reach 20 wt% or above, and the
nickel content can reach 20 wt% or above. The problem that the current high-nickel-silver brazing filler metal is difficult to process due to high
brittleness is solved; and the silver solder provided by the invention is high in cleanliness, and the
shear strength of a soldered joint can be remarkably improved.
