Abstract

The advantageous properties of gold-based brazing alloys have found a number of uses in the construction of aero-engines and space craft, in nuclear engineering and in the electrical and electronic industries. After reviewing the characteristics of a number of commercially available brazing alloys this paper details some performance data that have governed the choice of alloy for specific applications.
