Abstract: | A survey of the liquidus surface and invariant reactions involving liquid has been made for solidification in the ternary
Sn-Ag-Sb system. Differential thermal analysis and electron-beam microprobe analysis were used to measure liquidus temperatures
and determine the composition of solid phases resulting from solidification. A liquidus projection and the composition of
the phases coexisting at the two observed invariant reactions were determined. Ternary alloys based on the Sn-Ag-Sb system
have been used as thermal fatigue-resistant solders where high heat loads must be dissipated. An analysis of the properties
encountered from such solders is presented, based on the phase constitution resulting from the solidification behavior reported
here.
