Welcome to the aluminium brazing blog site. We will regularly be publishing articles about aluminium brazing in this blog and we look forward to your comments, remarks and questions. Behind the scenes in this blog are the specialists for aluminium brazing from Solvay Fluor. This blog is a corporate blog and offers you new, additional ways to communicate with us.
Making fire from water is a seemingly insoluble contradiction – but in 2014 the project will hit the markets. Instead of propane or acetylene, hydrogen is burnt, which in turn is produced from water in an electrolyzer. Also, the oxygen for the combustion arises from the chemical decomposition. The portable unit requires a standard 220 […]
Technical Information by Daniel Lauzon Manufacturing Processes By the early nineties, aluminum had already almost completely replaced copper/brass in radiators at the Ford Motor Company. Ford had gone through mass production of mechanically assembled radiators starting in 1982 and introduced vacuum brazing in 1983. In 1989, Winterbottom reported, …”the manufacturing capability and the superior corrosion […]
Technical Information by Daniel Lauzon Synopsis The use of aluminum alloys in automotive heat exchanger applications has steadily increased over the nearly 3 decades, particularly in engine cooling and air conditioning systems for passenger vehicles. This paper will briefly review what precipitated the transition from traditional copper/brass to aluminum radiators by outlining the technical merits […]
1. Preparation and Application This article provides information about the application of binder systems for NOCOLOK Flux. Solvay offers three concepts for flux binder application: NOCOLOK Binder (water-soluble) / NOCOLOK Thickener (water-soluble) NOCOLOK System Binder (water-based) NOCOLOK Flux plus Binder Mixture (water-based) These products can be used in water-based NOCOLOK Flux slurries to improve flux […]
Summary The article was written on the basis of frequently asked questions from companies which either wanted to start a new all-aluminium brazing production of heat exchangers or wanted to convert from copper and aluminium mechanical assembly design to all-aluminium brazed parts. The questions were grouped into three main categories: Equipment (emphasis on assembling process), […]
