  2. Whisker (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisker_(metallurgy)

    Metal whiskering is a crystalline metallurgical phenomenon involving the spontaneous growth of tiny, filiform hairs from a metallic surface. The effect is primarily seen on elemental metals but also occurs with alloys. The mechanism behind metal whisker growth is not well understood, but seems to be encouraged by compressive mechanical stresses ...

    Copper, solid or plated; low brasses or bronzes; silver solder; German silvery high copper-nickel alloys; nickel-chromium alloys: −0.35 Brass and bronzes: −0.40 High brasses and bronzes: −0.45 18%-chromium-type corrosion-resistant steels: −0.50 Chromium plated; tin plated; 12%-chromium-type corrosion-resistant steels: −0.60 Tin-plate ...

  4. Fretting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fretting

    Contact fretting can change the impedance of a B2B connector from milliohms to ohms in just minutes when vibration is present. The relatively soft and thin gold plating used on most high quality electrical connectors is quickly worn through exposing the underlying alloy metals and with fretting debris the impedance rapidly increases.

  5. Materials for use in vacuum - Wikipedia

    It has good corrosion resistance. Its zinc content may cause problems; zinc outgassing can be reduced by nickel-plating. Indium wire is used as a gasket in demountable seals. Gold wire is used as a gasket in demountable seals for ultra-high vacuum, as well as an alternative to lead-tin solder for making electrical connections.

  6. Electroless nickel immersion gold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroless_nickel...

    Electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG or ENi/IAu), also known as immersion gold (Au), chemical Ni/Au or soft gold, is a metal plating process used in the manufacture of printed circuit boards (PCBs), to avoid oxidation and improve the solderability of copper contacts and plated through-holes.

  7. Tinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinning

    Hot tin-dipping is the process of immersing a part into a bath of pure molten tin at a temperature greater than 450 °F or 232 °C. Tinplate made via hot-dipped tin plating is made by cold rolling steel or iron, pickling to remove any scale, annealing to remove any strain hardening, and then coating it with a thin layer of tin.

  8. Titanium nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_nitride

    Titanium nitride (TiN; sometimes known as tinite) is an extremely hard ceramic material, often used as a physical vapor deposition (PVD) coating on titanium alloys, steel, carbide, and aluminium components to improve the substrate's surface properties.

  9. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

    The base electrode metal is often coated with another inert metal such as gold, nickel, or tin. [8] The use of a coating material with good conductivity, mechanical robustness and corrosion resistance helps to reduce the influence of passivating oxide layers and surface adsorbates, which limit metal-to-metal contact patches and contribute to ...
