Abstract

Microstructure, wettability behavior, corrosion parameters, thermal properties of quaternary bismuth- tin based alloy have been investigated using different experimental techniques.  Induced lattice microstrain of Bi60Sn40 alloy increased after adding Sb-Zn or Sb-Ag or Al-Cd or Al-Cu.  Contact angle of Bi60Sn40 alloy increased after adding Sb-Zn or Sb-Ag or Al-Cd or Al-Cu.  A significant change (28%) occurred in contact angle of Bi60Sn40 alloy after adding Al-Cd.  Corrosion rate of Bi60Sn40 alloy decreased after adding Sb-Zn or Sb-Ag but it increased after adding Al-Cd or Al-Cu.  The melting temperature of Bi60Sn40 alloy varied after adding alloying elements.  The Bi50Sn40Al5Cd5 alloy has the lowest melting temperature.  Some properties of Bi60Sn40 alloy improved after adding Sb-Zn or Sb-Ag elements which make them useful for different industrial applications.
