Abstract
Thermodynamics have long been applied to our understanding of the reactive wetting phenomena in metal-ceramic joining. We postulate the existence of a “solvent effect” due to the interaction between the reactive element addition and the brazing alloy. This effect plays a significant role in reactive wetting. By taking this effect into account, more realistic reactivities of different reactive element additions into a given brazing base alloy are predicted. Irreversible thermodynamics are also used to characterize the driving forces for reactive metal-ceramic joining.
