Studies on Microstructure of Gold Soldered Joints

Abstract
Solder microstructures were found to be influenced by those of the castings. A tendency of solder to match the microstructures contacted during its solidification was demonstrated. Several different types of defects were identified in the soldered joints. Tentative correlations of the observed microstructures and defects with physical properties, corrosion resistance and dimensional changes of soldered structures have been made.
