Alloy, Fusible

Name:
Alloy, Fusible
Detailed information:
(low-melting alloy; fusible metal). An alloy melting in the range of approximately 51–260C, usually containing bismuth, lead, tin, cadmium, or indium. Eutectic alloys are the particular compositions that have definite and minimum melting points compared. The compositions of a few fusible alloys are given below:

System	Eutectic Composition	Temperature (C)
Cd-Bi	60 Bi–40 Cd	144
In-Bi	33.7 Bi–66.3 In	72
	67.0 Bi–33 In	109
Pb-Bi	56.5 Bi–43.5 Pb	125
Sn-Bi	58 Bi–42 Sn	139
Pb-Sn-Bi	52 Bi–16 Sn–32 Pb	96
Pb-Cd-Bi	52 Bi–8 Cd–40 Pb	92
Sn-Cd-Bi	54 Bi–20 Cd–26 Sn	102
In-Sn-Bi	58 Bi–17 Sn–25 In	79
Pb-Sn-Cd-Bi	*50 Bi–10 Cd–13.3 Sn–26.7 Pb	70
In-Pb-Sn-Bi		49.4
	Bi–11.6 Sn–18 Pb–21 In	57
In-Cd-Pb-Sn-Bi	44.7 Bi–5.3 Cd–8.3 Sn–22.6 Pb–19.1 In	47
