Phase change materials provide desirable characteristics for latent heat thermal energy
storage by keeping the high energy density and quasi isothermal working temperature …

The thermal management of smart and wearable electronics has become a serious issue,
due to their reducing size and increasing power density, which has high requirement on …

Abstract Four hypereutectic Sn-Zn alloys with 69.5, 48.3, 28.1 and 14.1 at% of Zn were
produced by mixing and melting of pure metals Sn and Zn followed by cooling in air to room …

The aim of the work is to propose an alternative method to qualitatively evaluate the
wettability of different alloys of a particular alloy system. The technique is based on a thermal …

Abstract As-cast Sn-8.8 wt.% Zn eutectic alloy was directionally solidified with a constant
temperature gradient (G= 4.16 K/mm) under various solidification rates (V= 8.3–790 μm/s) in …

Thermal conductivities of pure Sn, pure Al and Sn-x wt% Al [x= 0.5, 2.2, 25, 50, 75] binary
alloys were measured by radial heat flow method and were found to be 60.60, 208.80 …

The influence of surface activated bonding (SAB) on adhesion strength between a metal and
ceramic including Al/AlN and Cu/AlN is investigated. Plasma pre-treatments can significantly …

The rapid release of energy from reactive multilayer foils can create extreme local
temperature gradients near substrate materials. In order to fully exploit the potential of these …

Tin–zinc-based alloys are under intense consideration as alternative lead-free solders for
consumer electronics and telecommunications. This is because of their excellent creep …
