Effect of phosphorus content on the wettability of Ni-P coated surfaces by SAC305 alloy

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the chemical composition of Ni-P coating on the wettability kinetics of SAC305 liquid solder in contact with the Ni-P coating. The study was conducted in vacuum, at 230°C, for 5 minutes, usi...

Application of X-ray computed tomography to compare gravity casting to counter-gravity low-pressure air-melted process

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the internal structure of alloys similar to AlSi9Mg (EN AC-43300), made with the counter-gravity low-pressure air-melted process (CLA) and with the gravity casting process. The X-ray computed tomography (CT...
