Indentation creep and mechanical properties of quaternary Sn–Sb based alloys

Creep behavior of Sn–Sb based quaternary alloys have been investigated by indentation method at room temperature. Stress exponent values have been determined using Mulheam–Tabor method and the calculated exponents are in good agreement with the values of Sn based reported in the literature. The stress exponent values in the range of 3.39–5.12. Elastic modulus and internal friction of Sn–Sb based alloys have been studied and analyzed.
