Effects of Ag addition on the wettability on the copper surface
shear strength of solder joints
creep strength and microstructure of Sn-9Zn lead-free solder alloys have been investigated experimentally. The results show that lower Ag addition can improve the wettability and shearing strength of solder joints of Sn-9Zn alloy melt on the Cu surface while higher Ag addition can be inferior to them. There exists an optimum Ag content ranging from 0.3 % to 0.6% for wettability and shearing strength of solder joints. The creep strength of Sn-9Zn solder alloys can be increased by the addition of Ag
which may be attributed to the micrometer-sized dispersed Ag-Zn particles formed in the bulk of Sn-9Zn-xAg solder alloy.
