Abstract

Electrical resistivity of the nanocomposites Sn96.5Ag3Cu0.5 and Sn95,5Ag3,8Cu0,7 lead-free solder alloys with minor admixtures of carbon nanospheres (0.05 wt%) was measured in a wide temperature range, including a melting-solidification region. Influence of the carbon nanospheres content on electrical resistivity values has been analyzed. Carbon nanospheres were obtained by electrical discharge method from diesel fuel, cyclohexane, and aviation kerosene. The matrix samples were produced by planar flow casting technique in the form of thin ribbons. Electrical resistivity measurements were performed using four-probe method. Hysteresis between the heating and cooling electrical resistivity curves relates to the non-equilibrium solidification.
