Sumario:The use of soldering based on metallurgical bonding, as opposed to conventional rubber sealing, is capable of achieving the firm sealing of stainless-steel subway car bodies, though the corrosion resistance of such joints has rarely been investigated. In this study, two typical solders were selected and applied to the soldering of stainless steel, and their properties were investigated. As indicated by the experimental results, the two types of solder exhibited favorable wetting and spreading properties on stainless-steel plates, and successfully achieved sealing connections between the stainless-steel sheets. In comparison with the Sn-Zn9 solder, the Sn-Sb8-Cu4 solder exhibited lower solidus–liquidus, such that it can be more suitably applied to low-temperature sealing brazing. The sealing strength of the two solders reached over 35 MPa, notably higher than that of the sealant currently used (the sealing strength is lower than 10 MPa). In comparison with the Sn-Sb8-Cu4 solder, the Sn-Zn9 solder exhibited a higher corrosion tendency and a higher degree of corrosion during the corrosion process.
