Effect of nano-size oxide based reinforcement on the tensile properties of Sn-Ag-Cu solder

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

In the present study, using powder metallurgy route, varying volume fraction of ZrO2 stabilized with 8 mol.% of Y2O 3 particulates were incorporated into Sn-3.5Ag-0.7Cu solder to develop nanocomposite solders. The samples were extruded and characterized in terms of microstructural and tensile properties. With the addition of nano length scale reinforcement, the results revealed an improvement in 0.2% yield strength (upto ∼ 39%) and ultimate tensile strength (upto ∼ 43%), when compared with that of monolithic Sn-Ag-Cu solder. An attempt is made in this study to interrelate the tensile behavior of Sn-Ag-Cu with the presence of nano-size reinforcement.
