Journal ArticleDOI

A review : On the development of low melting temperature Pb-free solders

TL;DR: This review discusses fundamental research activity and its focus on the solidification and interfacial reactions of Sn-based solder systems, and first explains the reactions between common base materials, coatings, and metallisations, and then proceed to more complex systems with additional alloying elements.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of Laser Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing of aluminium alloys: Microstructure and properties

TL;DR: A review of the current status of additive manufacturing with Al-alloys is presented in this paper, focusing on the microstructural characteristics and how these influence mechanical properties, and the remaining challenges in the development of AM with high-strength Al-aloys are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intermetallic compound growth suppression at high temperature in SAC solders with Zn addition on Cu and Ni–P substrates

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of Zn addition in suppressing interfacial Intermetallic Compound (IMC) growth on Cu and Ni-P substrates has been determined, and a method of incorporating Zn into the solder during reflow without compromising solder paste reflow described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of high-intensity ultrasonic irradiation on the modification of solidification microstructure in a Si-rich hypoeutectic Al–Si alloy

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of high-intensity ultrasound irradiation in modifying complex solidification microstructure is explored in a high Si containing Al-Si alloy and the origin of microstructural changes explained on the basis of nucleation and growth behaviour.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Ni alloying on the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of two duplex light-weight steels during different annealing temperatures: Experiment and phase-field simulation

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of annealing temperature from 500°C to 1050°C on the precipitation of ordered phases size and morphology through phase-field modelling and experimental studies based on laboratory scale annaling and characterization are investigated.
