Tin-zinc alloy plating; its application to copper wire

$15.00

The tin-zinc alloy plating process is described, and its application to copper wire is considered. The advantages of this alloy include corrosion resistance, solderability, and avoidance of “tin pest” deterioration. Experimental work on copper is described which indicates that this application presents no unusual problems.
