The analysis of the phase nucleation requires not only the in-situ images but also the accurate nucleation information. Thus, the nucleation of both the primary Ni_3Sn_2 and peritectic Ni_3Sn_4 phases were studied during peritectic solidification of Sn-Ni alloy using the high temperature confocal laser scanning microscope (HT-CLSM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results by both methods confirm that the nucleation undercooling AT of the solid phases decrease with increasing cooling rates, which is demonstrated to be caused by higher concentration difference at larger cooling rates. Besides, the freezing range of the alloy is also found to decrease with the increase in cooling rate. However, the nucleation undercooling of the peritectic Ni_3Sn_4 phase determined by HT-CLSM is larger than that by DSC at each cooling rate. This is attributed to the slower capture of peritectic reaction when using HT-CLSM. Furthermore, the nucleation of peritectic Ni_3Sn_4 phase is confirmed to be controlled by the heterogeneous nucleation on primary Ni_3Sn_2 phase by comparison between the HT-CLSM observation and DSC result. In addition, the wetting angles for heterogeneous nucleation of both phases which are important parameters in analyzing the nucleation of solid phases were determined through the entropy of solidification data from the DSC results. The smaller wetting angle of peritectic Ni_3Sn_4 phase as compared with that of the primary Ni_3Sn_2 phase further proving the smaller nucleation undercooling of Ni_3Sn_4 phase during solidification.
