Abstract

A method of diffusion brazing parts made of a superalloy A uses a single-component brazing powder prepared by measuring a quantity of a superalloy powder having a composition identical to the superalloy A and a quantity of a boron and/or silicon flux powder in a proportion of between 0.1% and 40% by weight of the superalloy powder, mixing the powders and placing them with balls made of superalloy A in a container also made of superalloy A, closing the container and keeping its contents in a controlled atmosphere, placing the container in a grinder and operating the grinder to keep the container moving for a period ranging from 30 seconds to 500 hours in order to encrust the flux onto the surface of the grains of the superalloy powder.
