Abstract

To evaluate the possibility of the partial melting soldering. wettability of partial melted solders was measured using wetting balance. Off eutectic Sn-Pb allows are wettable in their partial melting zone. Especially, Pb rich alloys showed excellent wettability while wettability of Sn rich alloys were adequate or poor. It is found that wettability increases over $200^{\circ}C$ regardless of composition liquid fraction and phases of the original alloy Sn-7Ag alloy showed good wettability in their partial melting zone, while Sn-65Bi alloy was non-wettable under their melting points.
