In this paper, a novel 95Ag-2.5Ge-2.5Si (in wt %) filler is utilized for brazing yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolytes and commercial Crofer 22H interconnects for solid-oxide fuel cells’ (SOFCs) sealing application. Before brazing, surface metallization is applied on YSZ and Crofer 22H substrates to improve the wetting performance of the filler on YSZ and Crofer 22H substrates. The brazing procedure is performed at 900 °C for 10 min under a high vacuum (~10−6 torr) to prepare sandwiched YSZ/Crofer 22H brazed coupons. The metallization mentioned above can achieve reactive wetting toward YSZ ceramics. A Si/Ti-rich oxide layer and an Fe-Cr-Si alloying phase are formed at the brazed joints’ YSZ/filler and filler/Crofer 22H interfaces. After exposure to air at 750 °C for 100 h, Cu and Si contents suffer from oxidation and form CuO and SiO2, respectively, in the brazed zone and the YSZ/filler interface of the joints. The Fe-Cr-Si alloying phase at the filler/Crofer 22H interface is preserved without apparent oxidation. The pressure-drop test results show that the brazed joints’ gas tightness does not deteriorate significantly after thermal aging, which is attributed to the good interfacial integrity of thermal-aged joints. |
