The key parameters investigated in this study consist of the brazing current, electrode pressure and brazing time. The Taguchi method was applied to the design of experiments. Signal-to-Noise ratio was introduced in the study to identify optimal levels from the process where input parameters yield increased shear strength. Brazing was thus implemented with 5,000A brazing current, 0.70 MPa electrode pressure, and 1.50s brazing time. The maximum shear strength obtained was 54.31 N·mm^-2 in accordance with input parameter settings. In addition, Cu-rich phase and Ag0.4Fe0.6 intermetallic phases were found at the interface zone.展开更多

Dip soldering was used to initiate the reaction between the solder and substrate. An r/-Cu6Sn5 intermetallic phase possessing a hexagonal lattice structure was found at the as-soldered interface. Thermal aging at a number of conditions resulted in the formation of a CuaSn intermetallic phase between the Cu6Sn5 layer and the copper substrate, e-Cu3Sn with an orthorhombic lattice structure was found together with hexagonal CusSn. Subsequently, the activation energies of the intermetallic phases were calculated and compared to results obtained from the literature. The comparison showed that good agreement existed between the findings from this study and literature data within a similar temperature range.展开更多
