Effect of in Addition to Zn-5Al Solder on Microstructure and Properties of Solder Joints

Article Preview

Abstract:

The effect of In addition to Zn-5Al on the interfacial reaction behaviors and mechanical properties of solder joints were investigated. It was found that addition of In decreasing the melting point of Zn-5Al solder. The segregation of In on grain boundary was observed. CuZn5 and Cu5Zn8 intermetallic phases were observed at joint interface. Segregation of In on grain boundary caused a significant decrease of strength of the Zn-5Al-In solder compared to Zn-5Al. Addition of 1% In to Zn-5Al solder resulted in a reduction of shear strength of 14 MPa. The interfacial microstructure, shear strength and fracture surfaces of Zn-5Al/Cu and Zn-5Al-1In/Cu solder joints were studied.
