Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A flux-free brazing aluminum alloy brazing sheet includes: a core material formed of aluminum alloy comprising Si of 0.50 to 0.90 mass %, Cu of 0.30 to 2.50 mass %, and Mn of 1.40 to 1.80 mass %, with a Mg content limited to 0.05 mass % or less, and with the balance being Al and inevitable impurities; an intermediate material being formed of aluminum alloy comprising Mg of 0.40 to 1.00 mass %, and Zn of 2.00 to 6.00 mass %, with the balance being Al and inevitable impurities; and a brazing material being formed of aluminum alloy comprising Si of 6.00 to 13.00 mass %, Mg of 0.05 to 0.40 mass %, and Bi of 0.010 to 0.050 mass %, with the balance being Al and inevitable impurities.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An aluminum alloy brazing sheet used for brazing in an inert gas atmosphere without using a flux, the aluminum alloy brazing sheet comprising: a core material; an intermediate material cladded onto one side surface of the core material; and a brazing material cladded onto a side surface of the intermediate material opposite to a side surface on which the core material exists, wherein the core material is formed of aluminum alloy consisting of Si of 0.50 to 0.90 mass %, Cu of 0.30 to 2.50 mass %, and Mn of 1.40 to 1.80 mass %, with a Mg content limited to 0.05 mass % or less, and with the balance being Al and inevitable impurities, the intermediate material is formed of aluminum alloy consisting of Mg of 0.40 to 1.00 mass %, and Zn of 2.00 to 6.00 mass %, optionally Mn, with the balance being Al and inevitable impurities, and the brazing material is formed of aluminum alloy consisting of Si of 6.00 to 13.00 mass %, Mg of 0.05 to 0.40 mass %, and Bi of 0.010 to 0.050 mass %, optionally Sr, optionally Cu, with the balance being Al and inevitable impurities. 2. The aluminum alloy brazing sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the brazing material further comprises Sr of 0.001 to 0.05 mass %. 3. The aluminum alloy brazing sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the brazing material further comprises Cu of 0.02 to 1.20 mass %. 4. The aluminum alloy brazing sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the intermediate material further comprises Mn of 0.05 to 0.50 mass %.
