Abstract :
Recently, the use of Sn-Pb eutectic solder has been prohibited by Restriction of the use of Hazardous Substances (RoHS), since Pb may have a bad influence on human and the environment. Instead, Tin-Silver-Copper (Sn-Ag-Cu) system is adopted as the lead free solder. However, the melting temperature of Sn-Ag-Cu is higher than that of Sn-Pb, which may induce damages in the circuit boards and packages. To solve this problem, Sn nanoparticles are fabricated by the reaction of SnCl2, PVP and aluminum powder. Morphology observation and component analysis of Sn nanoparticles are carried out by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, respectively. The melting temperature of Sn nanoparticles is measured by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC822e). The lowest melting temperature of the present Sn nanoparticles is 493.1 K (496.2 K), which is approximately 12 K (9 K) lower than that of the bulk Sn.
