Review: This book teaches readers how to braze the materials that will be in use in the 21st century. The author fuses his past experience, basic understanding, theories, and practical information with guidance on future braizing applications and problem-solving considerations. This revised edition includes experiences of tooling, design, materials, atmospheres, processing and equipment. New and emerging topics are covered, including: nanostructures and materials, microwave and laser brazing, more effective use of vacuum atmospheres, functionally gradient materials and intermetallics. There are chapters on: brazing fundamentals; elements of the brazing process; base metals and the base-metal family group; brazing filer materials; fluxes and atmospheres; significant aspects of the brazing process; joint design; evaluation and quality control; and applications and the outlook for the future.
