Abstract
The initial reaction between Pt and molten Sn has been studied by dipping tests of 1 and 2â¯s. It was found that both PtSn and PtSn4 formed in the first second of contact. PtSn formed 7â¯nm (1â¯s) and 20â¯nm (2â¯s) thick layers on top of the Pt substrate but PtSn4 formed scattered particles in the liquid Sn. No orientation relationship was found between Pt and PtSn. PtSn nucleates heterogeneously on Pt by its larger energy of formation than PtSn4 and PtSn4 nucleates in liquid Sn by the very low solubility of Pt in molten Sn.
