The effect of bismuth (Bi) micro-alloying additions on wettability and mechanical properties of Sn-0.7Cu lead-free solder were explored. This paper also investigates the influences of various Bi percentages on the suppression of intermetallic compound formation. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to observe the microstructure evolution of solder joint including the thickness of interfacial intermetallic layers. Overall, with the addition of Bi to Sn-0.7Cu solder, the size of primary Cu6Sn5become smaller and suppresses the thickness of interfacial intermetallic compound between solder and the Cu substrate. Microhardness value and wetting properties also increased with Bi addition which resulted in smaller size of β-Sn and Cu6Sn5.

In this study the effects of small amounts of nickel addition (0-2000 ppm) on the microstructure, on Cu6Sn5 intermetallic compound formation and the mechanical properties of a Sn-0.5Cu lead-free solder were investigated. It is known that even ppm level additions of Ni have significant effects on the microstructure of Sn-Cu solder alloys. Ni suppresses the growth of β-Sn dendrites in favour of eutectic formation. As the nickel content increases, the microstructure undergoes a morphology evolution from hypoeutectic through fully eutectic to hypereutectic. Furthermore, the presence of Ni in the Cu6Sn5 intermetallic compound phase stabilises its high-temperature allotrope η-Cu6Sn5.

The toxicity in the Sn-Pb solder has promoted the development of Pb-free solder in the electronics industries. Among the Pb-solders, the Sn-3.5Ag-1.0Cu solder is considered a potential replacement and being studied by many researchers. In the present study, the characteristics of Sn-3.5Ag-1.0Cu lead-free solder were studied. The raw materials were tin, silver and copper powders in micron size. The solder was prepared using powder metallurgy route which includes blending, compacting and sintering. Four blending times and two compacting pressures were used to investigate for optimum condition. The melting temperature of the samples were studied using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and the presence of Sn Ag, Cu were confirmed using x-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). Finally the effect of variables on the hardness of the solders is reported.

The attempt to produce various types of lead-free solder has been actively investigated around the world in order to substitute the harmful SnPb solders. The effects of Zn addition on the microstructure, melting point and microhardness of Sn-0.7Cu lead-free solder were investigated with 1 wt% and 5 wt% of Zn additions. Powder metallurgy (PM) method was used to fabricate these Sn-0.7Cu-Zn lead-free solders. The results revealed that the addition of Zn was able to improve the solder properties. The melting point of Sn-0.7Cu-Zn lead-free solder was decreased drastically as the increasing of Zn additions. The Zn particles were distributed homogenously along the grain boundaries and produced refined dendrite β-Sn, which also lead to a superior microhardness values of solders.
