Problems solved by technology

Only the precursor connection can realize the connection under the conditions of low temperature (<1500°C) and low pressure (<1MPa), and ensure that the joint after connection has good performance such as high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and neutron radiation resistance, which is very promising. It is applied to the connection of SiC cladding, but due to the large volume shrinkage in the connection process, there are more pores in the connection layer, which makes the connection strength not high, and is not conducive to the sealing of SiC cladding
In the existing technology, adding fillers to the precursor can suppress the shrinkage rate during the connection process and improve the connection strength, but the introduction of fillers may reduce the high temperature resistance and radiation resistance of the joints, and reduce the reliability of the joints
