Abstract
To improve properties of Sn0.7Cu solder, method of particles reinforced was employed. Effects of Ag particle contents (1, 3, 5, 7.5, and 10 vol.%) on spreadability, microstructure, shear strength and creep rupture life of Sn0.7Cu solders have been studied. The experimental results indicate that intermetallic compound (IMC) grows, Shear strength is increased and grains are fined with the increasing of Ag particles. When content of Ag particles is more than 5 vol.%, growth rate of IMC is increased significantly. When the content of Ag is 5 vol.%, the composite solder presents best spreadability and excellent creep rupture property which have maximum spreading area, minimum wetting angle and longest creep rupture life (about 22 times as long as that of Sn0.7Cu solder).
