Abstract
Abstract A method for metallizing a ceramic body comprising coating a surface of the ceramic body with a metallizing composition consisting essentially of 10 to 90 weight parts uncoated molybdenum or tungsten metal particles, 4 to 80 weight parts molybdenum or tungsten metal particles which have an adherent coating of nickel, iron, and/or cobalt metal, and 2 to 27 weight parts ceramic sinter powder. The coated ceramic body is then heated in the range of about 1,100* to 1,500* C. in a reducing atmosphere to produce a sintered metal coating on the ceramic body. Then, the metal coating on the ceramic body may be brazed or soldered to a metal body or to another metallized body.
