The Effect of Pb Contamination on the Solidification Behavior of Sn-Bi Solders

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
Kil-Won Moon, William J. Boettinger, Ursula R. Kattner, C A. Handwerker, D J. Lee
This paper presents experimental results and theoretical calculations to evaluate the effects of Pb contamination on the solidification behavior of Sn-x mass Bi alloys (x = 5, 10, and 58 mass %). The pasty (mushy) range, the type of solidification path

Alpha Case Thickness Modeling in Investment Castings

December 1, 2000
Author(s)
William J. Boettinger, Maureen E. Williams, Sam R. Coriell, Ursula R. Kattner, B A. Mueller
The alpha case thickness at the surface of a Ti-6Al-4V step wedge investment casting has been measured and successfully predicted. The prediction uses temperature-time results obtained from a heat flow simulation of the casting that was performed with a

Experimental and Thermodynamic Assessment of Sn-Ag-Cu Solder Alloys

October 1, 2000
Author(s)
Kil-Won Moon, William J. Boettinger, Ursula R. Kattner, Frank S. Biancaniello, C A. Handwerker
Sn-rich alloys in the Sn-Ag-Cu system are being studied for their potential as Pb-free solders. Thus, the location of the ternary eutectic involving L, (Sn), Ag 3)Sn and Cu( 6)Sn( 5) phases is of critical interest. Phase diagram data in the Sn-rich corner

The Ternary Eutectic of Sn-Ag-Cu Solder Alloys

September 1, 2000
Author(s)
Kil-Won Moon, William J. Boettinger, Ursula R. Kattner, Frank S. Biancaniello, C A. Handwerker
New measurements using precision thermal analysis and existing experimental data for the Sn-Ag-Cu system are summarized. For Sn-Ag-Cu alloys, the location of the ternary eutectic involving L, Sn, Ag3Sn, and Cu6Sn5 phases in the Sn-rich corner is of

Application of Laser Polarimetry to the Measurement of Specific Heat Capacity and Enthalpy of the Alloy 53Nb-47Ti (mass%) in the Temperature Range 1600 K to 2000 K by a Millisecond-Resolution Pulse Heating Technique

November 1, 1999
Author(s)
D Basak, Ursula R. Kattner, J L. McClure, Daniel Josell, A Cezairliyan
The determination of the specific heat capacity, enthalpy and electrical resistivity of the alloy, 53Nb-47Ti (mass%), in the temperature range 1600 K to 2000 K is described. The method is based on rapid resistive self-heating of a solid cylindrical

A Thermodynamic Assessment of the Ni-Al-B System

October 1, 1999
Author(s)
Carelyn E. Campbell, Ursula R. Kattner
The thermodynamics of the Ni-Al-B system are assessed based on available literature data. The ternary assessment included the revision of the Al-B binary description to account for the recent experimental work on the melting properties of AlB 12. The Ni-Al

The Thermodynamic Modeling of Multicomponent Phase Equilibria

December 1, 1997
Author(s)
Ursula R. Kattner
The present paper gives an overview of the CALPHAD method and recent progress made. First a brief history is given then the scope of phase diagram calculations is described. Thermodynamics descriptions most commonly used in the CALPHAD method are described
