Abstract

A high-temperature-resistant composite body is formed by joining over an area of a first, nonmetallic section via a bonding solder layer to a second, metallic section composed of Mo, an Mo-based alloy, W or a W-based alloy. A first arrangement composed of the first section, a first Zr solder and an intermediate layer is firstly soldered together in a first soldering step. A second arrangement of the resulting partial composite body, a second solder adjoining the intermediate layer and the second section is subsequently soldered together in a second soldering step. The intermediate layer at least 90 atom % of at least one of the elements Ta, Nb, W. The second solder is formed by precisely one material selected from Ti, Ti-based solder combination, V-based solder combination, Zr or Zr-based solder combination and it melts at a lower temperature than the first Zr solder in the second arrangement.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A process for producing a high-temperature-resistant composite body, the process comprising:
A) producing a first assembly of a first, nonmetallic section, a first Zr solder, and an intermediate layer in sequence, the intermediate layer being formed to at least 90 atom % of one or more of the elements selected from the group consisting of Ta, Nb, and W;
B) heating the first assembly in a first soldering step to melt the Zr solder but not the intermediate layer and to obtain a partial composite body;
C) producing a second assembly of the partial composite body, a second solder adjoining the intermediate layer of the partial composite body and a second, metallic section in sequence, where the second section is composed of a metal selected from the group consisting of Mo, a Mo-based alloy, W, and a W-based alloy, and where the second solder is formed by precisely one material selected from the group consisting of Ti, a Ti-based solder combination, a V-based solder combination, Zr and a Zr-based solder combination, and the second solder configured to melt at a lower temperature than the first Zr solder in the second assembly; and
D) heating the second assembly in a second soldering step to melt the second solder but not the soldered bond obtained from the first Zr solder;
to areally join the first, nonmetallic section via the bonding solder layer to the second, metallic section and to form the high-temperature-resistant composite body.

2. The process according to claim 1 , which comprises carrying out the second soldering step with a maximum furnace temperature that is at least 100° C. lower than a maximum furnace temperature reached in the first soldering step.

3. The process according to claim 1 , which comprises setting a maximum furnace temperature in the first soldering step within a range from 1800° C. inclusive to 2000° C. inclusive, and setting a maximum furnace temperature in the second soldering step within a range from 1550° C. inclusive to 1720° C. inclusive.

4. The process according to claim 1 , which comprises selecting a material of the second solder to have a melting point in a range from 1550° C. inclusive to 1680° C. inclusive in the second assembly.

5. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the second solder is formed by precisely one of the following solders:
a Ti solder;
a Ti—V solder combination;
a Zr solder; or
a Zr—Ti solder combination.

6. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the second solder is a Ti—V solder combination having a proportion of from 12 atom % inclusive to 50 atom % inclusive of V, and a balance Ti.

7. The process according to claim 1 , which comprises machining a surface of the intermediate layer of the partial composite body prior to step producing the second assembly.

8. The process according to claim 1 , which comprises forming the intermediate layer with an average thickness in a range from 0.1 mm inclusive to 2 mm inclusive.

9. The process according to claim 1 , wherein an average thickness of the first solder is in a range from 80 μm inclusive to 500 μm inclusive and the average thickness of the second solder is in the range from 30 μm inclusive to 400 μm inclusive.

10. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the first section is formed of a C-based material and the second section is formed of Mo or an Mo-based alloy.

11. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the first section is formed of a ceramic.

12. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the first section and the second section each form sections of components of an X-ray anode.

13. A high-temperature-resistant composite body, comprising:
a first, nonmetallic section joined, via a bonding solder layer, to a second, metallic section composed of a material selected from the group consisting of Mo, an Mo-based alloy, W and a W-based alloy;
said bonding solder layer including a first soldered bond formed by a Zr solder joining said first section to an intermediate layer which, at least in a core region, is formed to an extent of at least 90 atom % by at least one of the elements selected from the group consisting of Ta, Nb, and W; and
said bonding solder layer including a second soldered bond formed by a solder selected from the group consisting of a Ti solder, a Ti—V solder combination, a Zr solder, and a Zr—Ti solder combination joining said intermediate layer to said second section.

14. The composite body according to claim 13 , wherein said second soldered bond comprises a Ti solder having a remelting temperature of not more than 1860° C.

15. The composite body according to claim 13 , wherein said second soldered bond comprises a Ti—V solder combination having a remelting temperature of not more than 1780° C.
