Abstract
By analyzing the interaction of different glass powders with Al powder and Zinc oxide, the effect of the wetting property of glass powders on the surface morphology of aluminum paste and the adhesion between aluminum paste and Zinc oxide substrate is discussed. The effect of wetting property for different glass powders on Al and Zinc oxide is analyzed by a high-temperature contact angle tester, and the contact angle-temperature and extension radius-temperature curves are determined during the wetting process of the glass powders. The microstructure of the cross-section of the glass powders and of the substrate, and the surface morphology of the aluminum pastes are analyzed by a scanning electron microscope. Adhesion between the aluminum paste and the Zinc oxide substrate is analyzed by a vertical tensile strength meter. The results show that the wetting property of glass powder is an important factor affecting the adhesion and surface morphology of the paste, and it plays a role in preventing excessive oxidation of aluminum paste during sintering at high temperatures.
