Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of Binary In-Sn Alloys for Flexible Low Temperature Electronic Joints.

ABSTRACT: This research evaluates the mechanical properties of a variety of binary In-Sn alloys as potential candidates for low temperature electronic joints. The tensile and hardness tests of as-cast In-5Sn, In-12.5Sn, In-25Sn, In-30Sn, In-35Sn, In-40Sn, In-50Sn, In-60Sn, In-80Sn (wt.%) were assessed at room temperature and compared to those of pure In and Sn. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) increased from 4.2 MPa to 37.8 MPa with increasing tin content in the alloys under the testing condition of 18 mm/min and the results showed little difference under a lower strain rate (1.8 mm/min). Most compositions showed good ductility in tensile testing with an average of 40% elongation. A melting point range of 119.3 °C to 194.9 °C for tested alloys was measured using differential scanning calorimetry
