Also noteworthy is the good ionic conductivity in high temperatures of this component. In this work joining between ZrO2 Y-TZP and ZrO2 Mg-PSZ with austenitic stainless steel was studied. These joints were brazed at high-vacuum after mechanical metallization with Ti using filler alloys composed by Ag-Cu and Ag-Cu-Ni. The influence of the metallization, and the affinity between the different groups (ceramic / filler alloys) was evaluated, in order to achieve strong metal/ceramic joints. Evaluation of joints and interfaces, also the characterization of base materials was implemented using various techniques, such as: x-ray diffraction, leak test, three-point flexural test and scanning electron microscopy with chemical analysis. The microstructural analysis revealed physical and chemical bonds in the metal/ceramic interfaces, providing superior leak proof joints and stress cracking, in order to a good joint in all brazed samples. Precipitation zones and reaction layers with eutetic characteristics were observed between the steel and the filler metal / As interfaces metal/cer?micas utilizando zirc?nia t?m dominado as aplica??es industriais na ?ltima d?cada, em virtude da alta resist?ncia mec?nica e tenacidade ? fratura da zirc?nia, especialmente em temperaturas abaixo de 300 ?C. Destaca-se tamb?m a boa condutividade i?nica em temperaturas elevadas deste componente. No presente trabalho, estudou-se as uni?es entre ZrO2 Y-TZP e ZrO2 Mg-PSZ com o a?o inox austen?tico 304. Estas jun??es foram produzidas por brasagem a alto-v?cuo ap?s a metaliza??o mec?nica com Ti utilizandose ligas de adi??o compostas por Ag-Cu e Ag-Cu-Ni. Avaliou-se a influ?ncia da metaliza??o, bem como a afinidade entre os diversos grupos (cer?mica / liga de adi??o) com o intuito de se conseguir a melhor uni?o metal/cer?mica. A avalia??o das uni?es e interfaces, bem como a caracteriza??o dos materiais de base foi feita com recurso de diversas t?cnicas, tais como: difra??o de raios-x, ensaios de estanqueidade, flex?o em 3- pontos e microscopia eletr?nica de varredura com microan?lise por espectroscopia de energia dispersiva de raios-x. A an?lise microestrutural revelou liga??es f?sicas e qu?micas na interface metal/cer?mica, proporcionando boa estanqueidade e tens?o de ruptura e, consequentemente, uma boa uni?o em todas as amostras brasadas. Foram observadas zonas de precipita??o e camadas de rea??o com caracter?sticas eut?ticas entre o a?o e o metal de adi??o
