A survey of surface tension,molar volume and density for Sn–Ag–Cu–Bi–Sb quinary alloys as lead-free solders

ABSTRACT

By applying the geometric models and the theoretical equation, the surface tension, the molar volume and the density were studied. The empirical calculations were carried out in temperature range 623?K?≤?T?≤?1123?K. Only few thermophysical properties were estimated for eight quinary alloys: Sn3.55Ag0.5Cu3Bi3Sb, Sn3.48Ag0.5Cu3Bi5Sb, Sn3.48 Ag0.5Cu5Bi3Sb, Sn3.40 Ag0.5Cu5Bi5Sb, Sn3.53Ag1Cu3Bi3Sb, Sn3.46Ag1Cu3Bi5Sb, Sn3.46Ag1Cu5Bi3Sb, Sn3.38Ag1Cu5Bi5Sb. The results show that surface tension and density have a linear appearance for all temperatures. We have also studied the influence of the composition and temperature in the studied alloys. The obtained theoretical results are compared with the experimental ones and with the conventional Pb–Sn welds.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Biological Activity of n-Tributyltin Derivatives of Pharmaceutically Active Carboxylates

Summary.  Tributyltin(IV) derivatives of six different pharmaceutically active carboxylates were synthesized. The complexes were characterized by different analytical techniques (elemental analysis; infrared, NMR, and mass spectroscopy). ¹¹⁹Sn NMR data were also recorded in six different coordinating and non-coordinating solvents. The antibacterial activities of the compounds were tested using ten different bacteria relative to the reference drugs ampicillin and cephalexin. Received September 20, 2001.

Conversion ofn-hexane over Pt?Sn/γ-Al2O3 catalyst

Conversion ofn-hexane has been applied as a test reaction to study differences between the series of Pt−Sn/γ-Al₂O₃ catalysts obtainedvia different methods of preparation. Preliminary results of catalytic experiments have been compared with some changes occurring on the catalysts surfaces as the results of the preparation technique applied. It has been found that catalysts with the second metal (Sn) introduced to the support by the coprecipitation technique were much more stable in comparison to the catalysts where the tin component has been added by the impregnation method, however, we have not observed large differences in catalytic activity.     

镀液中Ce^3＋离子对锡镀层结构缺陷和可焊性的影响

应用荧光分析法、X光电子能谱法(XPS)及正电子湮没寿命谱法(PALS)等研究了从含硫酸铈添加剂的酸性光亮锡镀液获得的锡镀层结构缺陷与可焊性的关系。结果表明,电镀时Ce与Sn不发生共沉积,Ce~(3+)的主要作用是阻化Sn~(2+)的水解和氧化使镀液稳定,因而使锡镀层纯度提高、结构致密、表层氧含量减少,有利于提高镀层的可焊性。当Ce~(3+)浓度控制在3.5g/L左右时,可使镀层结构缺陷较少,可焊性较佳,说明结构缺陷是影响锡镀层可焊性的直接原因。     

Performance of Pt/SnO2 catalyst in the gas phase hydrogenation of crotonaldehyde

Selective hydrogenation of crotonaldehyde was performed on 5% Pt/SnO₂ catalysts, in gaseous phase, at atmospheric pressure, at 353 K. Two types of catalyst were prepared using H₂PtCl₆ and Pt(NH₃)₄(NO₃)₂ as metallic precursors. Their performances were compared as a function of the reduction temperature and both catalysts were characterised by X-ray diffraction after different reduction treatments. Using the ex-chloride catalyst, the selectivity values to the unsaturated alcohol (UOL) resulted into a maximum of 45% while a selectivity as high as 70–77%, in 0–25% conversion range, was achieved by using ex-nitrate catalyst reduced at 443 K. The formation of Pt–Sn alloy on the metal particles of platinum was thought to be necessary to improve the activity and the selectivity on these catalysts. In the contrast, a presence of PtSn₂ formed at a reduction temperature higher than 473 K led to a decrease of activity and selectivity.     

New diorganotin(IV) derivatives of 7-hydroxycoumarin (umbelliferone) and their adducts with 1,10-phenanthroline

New diorganotin(IV) derivatives of the general formula R2Sn(Umb)2 (where R = n-Bu, n-Oct and Ph; Umb = umbelliferone anion) have been synthesized either by the reaction of R2SnO with umbelliferone under azeotropic removal of water or by the reaction of R2SnCl2 with sodium salt of umbelliferone. Further, the adducts of the general formula R2Sn(Umb)2.phen (where R = n-Bu and n-Oct; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) have also been synthesized by the interaction of R2Sn(Umb)2 with 1,10-phenanthroline. The bonding and coordination behavior in these derivatives are discussed on the basis of IR and 119Sn M?ssbauer spectroscopic studies in solid state. Their coordination behavior in solution is discussed by the multinuclear (1H, 13C and 119Sn) NMR spectral studies. The M?ssbauer and IR studies indicate that umbelliferone acts as a monoanionic bidentate ligand in R2Sn(Umb)2 coordinating through O(7) and O(1). A distorted octahedral geometry around tin has been proposed for R2Sn(Umb)2 as well as for R2Sn(Umb)2.phen in solid state. The newly synthesized derivatives have been tested for their anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular activities. The average LD50 value >1000 mg kg(-1) of these compounds indicates their safety margin.     

Determination of tin in soil by continuous hydride generation and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry

A method was investigated for the determination of Sn in soil samples by KOH fusion followed by continuous hydride generation coupled with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HG-ICP-MS). Sample solutions in 3.0 M HCl were mixed in line with a solution of 2.4% NaBH₄ and 0.25 M KOH to generate stannane gas. The mixture was delivered continuously to a gas/liquid separator and the stannane gas was introduced into a Perkin-Elmer Sciex Elan 6000 ICP-MS for concentration measurements. A method detection limit of 0.45 mg/kg was sufficient for Sn levels commonly found in soil samples. Sn concentrations as low as 2.5 mg/kg were reproducibly measured in soil samples. Sample results by HG-ICP-MS agreed within ±17% relative difference to results by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) and within ±6% relative difference to results by KOH fusion followed by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES).
