ABSTRACT:
A solder, brazing or welding composition having improved physical properties, comprising a continuous phase ranging from about 40% to about 99% by volume of a solder, brazing or welding metal or alloy, and a disperse phase ranging from about 60% to about 1% by volume and comprising a reinforcing material in particulate or fibrous form, the reinforcing material being graphite, silicon carbide, a metal oxide, an elemental metal, and/or a metal alloy. A process for preparing the composite comprises providing a solder, brazing or welding metal or alloy, melting the metal or alloy, cooling the metal or alloy to a semi-solid state, subjecting the metal or alloy to vigorous shearing while in the semi-state, adding a reinforcing material as defined above to the metal or alloy during at least one of the cooling and shearing steps in an amount ranging from about 60% to about 1% by volume of the total volume, the reinforcing material being and remaining in particulate or fibrous form as a disperse phase, and solidifying the resulting composite. The composite may have a non-dendritic microstructure or may be amorphous.
