This article is about the metal joining process. For the cooking technique, see braising. Brazing is a joining process whereby a filler metal or alloy is heated to melting temperature above 450 °C (842 °F) - or, by the traditional definition in the United States, above 800 °F (427 °C) - and distributed between two or more close-fitting parts by capillary action. At its liquid temperature, the molten filler metal and flux interacts with a thin layer of the base metal, cooling to form a strong, sealed joint. By definition the melting temperature of the braze alloy is lower (sometimes substantially) than the melting temperature of the materials being joined. The brazed joint becomes a sandwich of different layers, each metallurgically linked to the adjacent layers. Common brazements are about 1/3 as strong as the parent materials due either to the inherent lower yield strength of the braze alloy or to the low fracture toughness of intermetallic components. To create high-strength brazes, a brazement can be annealed to homogenize the grain structure and composition (by diffusion) with that of the parent material . * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazing

What is ANDroid process?
Android process is nothing but process, its like you have a PC its running Windows and over that some process is running. So, that makes it Windows process and similarly when a process runs over the Android device its called Android Process.
What is zoombie process?
A zombie process is a process that has finished running, but is still there.
What are child and parent processes?
A child process is a process that was created by a parent process. The child process usually helps the parent process accomplish some task independently of the parent.

What kind of rod is use for braze welding?
Brazing isn't welding - it's more like soldering. You use a rod made out of brass for the process of brazing.

What chemical compound is used to prevent oxide formation in the process of brazing?
The compound, magnesium fluoride, is used in the process of brazing. It helps to smooth out the air particles by using this chemical compound to get rid of the pollutants, which helps with preventing oxide formation.
What is hobby brazing?

Which brazing rod do you use when brazing copper to brass?
You should use solder, not brazing. Brazing is used to join iron or steel products together.
What is a brazing hearth used for?
brazing clints head
What is another name for brazing?
Brazing is also known as soldering or soft soldering in the layman vernacular.
Definition of soldering and brazing?
Brazing is actually not a method of welding as it does not melt the joint metal together. Brazing is actually much closer to soldering. It is a process that (usually) uses a gas torch and a thin brass rod to bind two (or more) pieces of metal together. The torch heats the joints surface to the melting temperature of brass at which time the brass filler rod is melted into the joint to fuse them together.
Why must you preheat copper before brazing?
You usually do not braze copper, you solder it. If you were to use brazing rod on copper, the copper would have very close to the same melting point as the brazing rod. This makes it difficult to do. As far as preheating the copper, it needs to be hot enough for the brazing to flow.
How do you do zinc welding?
Brazing
What can be applied using brazing rods?
Flux can be applied using brazing rods. Bronze and Steel weldings can also be applied using brazing rods. You can also apply iron and other types of metal.
