Fusible Alloys include a group of binary, ternary, quaternary, and
quinary alloys containing Bismuth, lead, tin, cadmium and indium. The
term fusible alloy refers to any of the more than 100 white-metal
alloys that melt at relatively low temperatures.
Fusible alloys are materials that melt at less than 300F, well below
the melting point of Tin-lead eutectic solders. The major component of
fusible alloys is bismuth. Besides producing low melting point, bismuth
also gives these materials the unique characteristic of expanding on
freezing. This expansion, which can continue for hours or even days
after freezing, has proven to be a useful property in many processes.
Fusible Alloys are classified as either eutectic or non-eutectic. In
eutectic alloys, the melting point coincides with the freezing point.
Non- eutectic alloys exhibit a range between the melting and freezing
point in which the material is "mushy" or "pasty".
Fusible Alloys are used for lens blocking and tube bending, for
anchoring chicks and fixtures and for mounting thin sections such as
gas turbine blades for machining. The eutectic fusible alloys, which
can be tailored to give s specific melting point, find applications in
temperature control devices and in fire protection devices.
