Phase Equilibria of the Ag-Al-Au Ternary System and Interfacial Reactions in the Au-Ag/Al Couples at 450 °C.

The phase equilibria of the Ag-Al-Au ternary system and the solid-state reaction couple for the Au-Ag/Al system were investigated isothermally at 450 °C. By investigating the Ag-Al-Au ternary system and its isothermal section, this study aims to provide a clearer understanding of the phase stability and interfacial reactions between different phases. This information is crucial for designing materials and processes in electronic packaging, with the potential to reduce costs and improve reliability.

The Effect of Increasing Nickel Content on the Microstructure, Hardness, and Corrosion Resistance of the CuFeTiZrNi High-Entropy Alloys.

In recent years, high-entropy alloys (HEAs) that contain fine grains of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) have gained increasing attention as they have been shown to exhibit both high mechanical strength and strong corrosion resistance. One such class of HEAs is that of CuFeTiZrNi alloys. In this study, we have investigated the effect of increasing Ni content on the microstructure, hardness, and corrosion resistance of the CuFeTiZrNi alloys (where = 0.
