Influence of the thermal history and composition on the melting/solidification process in Sn-Ag-Cu solders

چکیده
Presented work shows the results of DSC measurement for six Sn based solders. The alloys Sn96Ag4, Sn99Cu1, Sn97Cu3, Sn96.5Ag3Cu0.5, Sn95.5Ag3.8Cu0.7 and Sn63Pb37 were studied in the temperature range from room temperature up to 400◦C. The transformation temperatures for melting as well as for solidification were influenced by the composition and thermal history of the alloys. The thermal history was altered by changing the maximum thermal cycle temperature and the heating/cooling rate. It is shown that the rate of solidification is far larger than that of the melting. The solidification rate is not influenced by neither the composition nor the thermal history of the material. Analysis of these results is presented.

Understanding the Influence of Copper Nanoparticles on Thermal Characteristics and Microstructural Development of a Tin-Silver Solder
This paper presents and discusses issues relevant to solidification of a chosen lead-free solder, the eutectic Sn-3.5%Ag, and its composite counterparts. Direct temperature recordings for the no-clean solder paste during the simulated reflow process revealed a significant amount of undercooling to occur prior to the initiation of solidification of the eutectic Sn-3.5%Ag solder, which is 6.5 C, ...

The influence of alloy composition of lowmelting Sn-Bi-Cu lead-free solder alloys on mechanical properties and solder joint reliabilities were investigated. The mechanically optimum alloy composition is Sn-40Bi-0.1Cu (mass%). The addition of 40mass%Bi improves the ductility and restrains the fillet-lifting, which are problems of lead-free solders with Bi. The addition of copper improves both th...

Recently, it has been reported that the crystal orientation and grain size of the β-Sn phase in Sn-rich solders have profound effects on the reliabilities of Pb-free solder joints, such as thermo-mechanical fatigue, electromigration, and among others. Additionally, it is also known that the microstructure of Sn-rich solders is strongly affected by their alloy composition. In this study, the gra...
