Abstract

The effect of kaolin geopolymer ceramic addition to the wettability and electrical resistivity of Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu (SAC305) lead free solder was successfully explored. Powder metallurgy with microwave sintering method was used to fabricate SAC305 composite solder. Five different weight percentage (wt.%) of kaolin geopolymer ceramic (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 wt.%) were used in this study. The wettability of composite solder revealed the optimum contact angle was achieved at 1.0 wt.% with 20.8 °. Then, the electrical resistivity of composite solder showed significant change in the resistivity value.
