Abstract

Various theories for ceramic to metal bonding are discussed. Theories prior to the mid-1960's are categorized as either mechanical or chemical in nature with the main emphasis being a bibliography of articles on the topic which have been listed as appendices. Current theories are discussed as they relate to a Battelle Memorial Institute study conducted in the late 1950's. Major factors affecting the ceramic-metal interfacial region, as related to surface or firing changes, are reviewed from current research.
