Experiments for first year engineering students using tin-bismuth alloys

The following experiments and demonstrations were fully integrated into the course: structure-phase diagrams, with a demonstration of melting-point depression and an estimation of the relative amount of proeutectic constituent; processing-grain growth of tin, the coarsening of pro-eutectic constitue...

Summary:The following experiments and demonstrations were fully integrated into the course: structure-phase diagrams, with a demonstration of melting-point depression and an estimation of the relative amount of proeutectic constituent; processing-grain growth of tin, the coarsening of pro-eutectic constituent, and sintering of eutectic Sn-Bi solder paste; and mechanical properties-tensile testing of various alloys in the fast-cooled and annealed state.
