Abstract:

Prediction of the deformation characteristics is an important step to understand the workability of alloys during imposing large strains. In this research, severe plastic deformation of Sn-5Sb solder alloy was carried out under different t deformation conditions, including the temperature range of 298, 330, 36, 400 K and die designs. The current study applies an experimentally validated finite element method (FEM) to establish a model for predicting workability in equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). To do this object, two ECAP dies were prepared with channel angle of 90 and the outer corner angle of 30O with and without choked angle in outlet channel. Angularly pressed Sn-5Sb solder alloy were utilized for validating the proposed FEM model. Different parameters such as die angles (angle between the channels and the outer corner angle), pressing temperature and the die outlet channel geometry were studied using FEM simulation. In conclusion, experimentally verified numerical data were successfully used for proficient die design and process determination in the ECAP of tin alloy. The obtained results of hybrid FEM model were in acceptable conformity with experimental measurements.

Zinc based bioalloys processed by severe plastic deformation – A review

Zinc based alloys have recently attracted great attention as promising biodegradable metals. Zinc exhibits moderate degradation rates in biological fluid and the zinc releases during the degradation process is considered safe to human systems. However, these materials exhibit critical limitations in terms of mechanical properties for medical applications. Adding alloying elements as well as gra...

Mechanical Properties and Solder Joint Reliability of Low-Melting Sn-Bi-Cu Lead Free Solder Alloy

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...

Bonding Characteristics of Al and Al-Alloy Strips: Processed by Severe Plastic Deformation

In this paper, the study of efficient bonding characteristics of AA6014 and AA1050 metal strips is carried out for Accumulative Roll Bonding (ARB) process. Among various Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) techniques, ARB process is widely used due to its ability to produce ultra-fine grained ( UFG) or nanostructured bulk material. It has been observed that, if the experimental pressure and corres...

High Reliability Lead-free Solder SN100C(Sn-0.7Cu-0.05Ni+Ge)

While the situation varies from country to country, nearly one year after the EU RoHS Directive came into force implementation of lead-free solder is progressing steadily. For lead-free soldering to be considered successful it is not sufficient just to have dealt with the challenges of mass production. It is also necessary to establish that the soldered joints produced are at least as reliable ...

Development of Sn-Zn-Al Lead-Free Solder Alloys

Fujitsu has implemented a company-wide effort to progressively reduce the use of lead (Pb) and eventually eliminate this environmental pollutant from its products. As part of this effort, we have developed a new lead-free solder that consists of tin (Sn), zinc (Zn), and aluminum (Al) and yet offers superior productivity and joint reliability. The new lead-free solder has a melting point equival...
