copper phosphorus brazing alloys are specialized materials that are used in brazing, comprising copper and various amounts of phosphorus. These alloys exhibit high brazing performance with the deoxidizing action of Phosphorus to minimize oxide formations during the process. Copper-phosphor solder is a binary alloy containing copper and phosphorus as its base metal. It has good fluidity, which makes it an appropriate choice for contact brazing, flame brazing, high-frequency brazing and furnace brazing. Adding silver to the phosphorous copper alloy raises solder wetting capacity, increases strength and toughness while reducing melting point temperature. That’s why this material is widely used in refrigeration industry as well as in motor, electrical appliance, instrument and other manufacturing industries. The use of brass for gas welding differs from the previous one since it applies to oxy-acetylene welding process only.If you need more information about these materials and their applications refer to China Phosphorous Copper Welding Rod Manufacturer.
