Ag is used as a beneficial alloy element in no matter solders or brazing filler metals. Obviously, the addition of Ag has a positive function on melting temperature, wettability, mechanical property and conductivity of filler metals. Therefore, Ag is still widely used in many researches and production in spite of that Ag is very expensive. Respectively, three kind of typical solders (Sn-Ag-Cu, Sn-Zn and Sn-Bi) and brazing filler metals (Ag-Cu-Zn, Cu-P, and Zn-Al) have been chosen for illustration. This article summarizes research status on the studying of Ag-contained solders and brazing filler metals, also analyses influence rules of Ag addition on the change of filler metals' physical property, microstructure as well as mechanical property. Moreover, the problems and difficulties in the process of study Ag-contained solders and brazing filler metals have been presented. Synchronously, some suggestions have been put forward which may solve the problems and difficulties mentioned above, which provides theory guide for the follow-up study of Ag-contained solders and brazing filler metals, and their prospects are also looked ahead.
