This paper investigates the changes in the interface organization and properties of 0.10 mm Pd/Al composite wires annealed at different temperatures. The optimum comprehensive performance of the material was obtained after annealing at 300 °C for 120 s. Its tensile strength, conductivity and elongation are 140.61 MPa, 46.82%IACS and 14.89%, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to observe the intermetallic compounds on the interface. The annealing temperature and the formation heat of intermetallic compounds determine the categories and evolution of intermetallic compounds. When the thickness of the intermetallic layer is more than 1 μm, it has a serious effect on the electrical conductivity and elongation of the materials.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
