Publisher's Synopsis
This collection of papers is drawn from Materials Week '92 held in Chicago, Illinois, November 2-5, 1992. It presents an overview of the fabrication and application of low-thermal expansion alloys and composites. Materials engineers involved in electronics and/or aerospace applications should find significant information regarding brazing, soldering and welding.;Coverage includes - reducing inadvertent alloying of metal/ceramic brazes, characterization of solidification and weldability of Fe-29Ni-17Co alloys, co-continuous alumina-aluminum composites for heat sinks and substrates, and aluminum-filled with aluminum nitride instead of silicon carbide for improved thermal and mechanical properties.
