The effect of a vacuum (approximately 10(-6) torr) on the low cycle fatigue life (25, 50, 75, and 95% drop in load) of 10Sn90Pb and 63Sn37Pb solder joints tested in shear was investigated in total strain control (DELTA-gamma-t = 0.006 to 0.5, upsilon = 0.1-Hz ramp cycling) at 300 K. The influence of a grease coating was also determined for the 63Sn37Pb alloy for DELTA-gamma-t = 0.07-0.80. No clear effect of vacuum occurred for the strain range considered. The grease coating improved fatigue life for a constant total strain range, but gave a reduced life when considered in terms of a fixed stress range. Possible explanations for the observed effects are given.
