EFFECT OF RARE EARTH ON CONDUCTANCE OF ALUMINUM WIRE

Effects of Rare Earth(Hereafter RE)on the conductance of high-purity and industrial-purity aluminum wires have been studied.RE increases the resistivity of the high-purity aluminum.No evidence has been found that RE will decrease the resistivity of industrial-pure aluminum under various RE content including 0.3%Ce.The individual role of RE and its combined effects with Fe and Si have been discussed too.

Effect of stress profile on microstructure evolution of cold-drawn commercially pure aluminum wire analyzed by finite element simulation

The evolution of microstructure in the drawing process of commercially pure aluminum wire （CPAW） does not only depend on the nature of materials, but also on the stress profile. In this study, the effect of stress profile on the texture evolution of the CPAW was systematically investigated by combining the numerical simulation and the microstructure observation. The results show that the tensile stress at the wire center promotes the formation of 〈111〉 texture, whereas the shear stress nearby the rim makes little contribution to the texture formation. Therefore, the 〈111 〉 texture at the wire center is stronger than that in the surface layer, which also results in a higher microhardness at the center of the CPAW under axial loading.2017 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of The editorial office of Journal of Materials Science ＆ Technology.

A nanoparticle formation model considering layered motion based on an electrical explosion experiment with AI wires

To study the evolution of nanoparticles during Al wire electrical explosion,a nanoparticle formation model that considered layered motion was developed,and an experimental system was set up to carry out electrical explosion experiments using 0.1 mm and 0.2 mm Al wires.The characteristic parameters and evolution process during the formation of nanoparticles were calculated and analyzed.The results show that the maximum velocities of the innermost and outermost layers are about 1200 m·s-1and 1600 m·s-1,and the velocity of the middle layer is about 1400 m·s-1,respectively.Most of the nanoparticles are formed in the temperature range of2600 K-2500 K.The characteristic temperature for the formation of Al nanoparticles is~2520K,which is also the characteristic temperature of other parameters.The size distribution range of the formed nanoparticles is 18 to 110 nm,and most of them are around 22 nm.The variation of saturated vapor pressure determines the temperature distribution range of particle nucleation.There is a minimum critical diameter of particles(~25 nm);particles smaller than the critical diameter can grow into larger particles during surface growth.Particle motion has an effect on the surface growth and aggregation process of particles,and also on the distribution area of larger-diameter particles.The simulation results are in good agreement with the experiments.We provide a method to estimate the size and distribution of nanoparticles,which is of great significance to understand the formation process of particles during the evolution of wire electrical explosion.

Characteristic of laser-MIG hybrid welding with filling additional cold wire for aluminum alloy

The weld appearance, deposition rate, welding efficiency, stability of arc, laser keyhole characteristic, and weld property were studied by using a novel laser-MIG hybrid welding process with filling wire of aluminum alloy. The results were also compared with those by conventional laser-MIG hybrid welding process.

EFFECT OF ULTRASONIC POWER ON THE HEAVY ALUMINUM WEDGE BONDING STRENGTH

Eleven groups of wire bonding experiments are carried out on an experiment platform （restructured with a U3000 heavy aluminum wedge wire bonder）. Pure silicon aluminum wire （300 μm in diameter, 2.94-3.92 N in average pull force） and nickel coated aluminum substrates are used in the experiments. During the experiment process, only ultrasonic power rate parameter is changed and the other bonding parameters are kept as constant, The bonding force and time are 4.90 N and 100 ms respectively. After the bonding experiments, shear strength tests are carried out on the bonds as the bonding strength criterion. From those experiments and test results, some conclusions are obtained： In the small ultrasonic power rate conditions （about 20%-30%）, with the power increasing, the bonding strength enhances accordingly; However, in the large ultrasonic power rate conditions （about 45%-70%）, the bonding strength decreases accordingly and over bonding happens. Only when the ultrasonic power rate is in a moderate condition （about 35%-40%） can good and stabilized bonding strength be acquired.
