Brazing & High-Temperature Soldering

High-Temperature Soldering & Brazing

Indium Corporation offers high-performance soldering materials for power semiconductors and other applications in harsh environment.
Indium Corporation is a leading gold and silver alloy bonding and brazing materials innovator for high-temperature and high-reliability applications, such as die-attach and hermetic sealing, in various industries including automotive, RF infrastructure, military, laser, and aerospace.

With over 200 alloys available, we have alloy solutions for temperatures up to 1,100°C. Providing an alternative to traditional high-lead options, Indium Corporation currently offers and is continuously developing novel lead-free solutions such as gold solders, sintering, preforms, and alloy technology with new flux systems

High Temperature Products

Lead-free options from Indium Corporation

Gold Solders

Gold based alloys offer strong bond strength, excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance, and good thermal and electrical transfer at the braze joint.

Sintering Products

Indium Corporation’s QuickSinter® silver sintering pastes are high metal-loading materials designed to fit easily into a dispense process with no change of deposition equipment. The pastes can also use fast “reflow-like” (RFL) sintering processes to form strong joints on many standard leadframe, DBC, and IPM pad finishes, and will bond strongly to die with Ag, Au, or Cu surfaces.

Silver-Based High Temp Alloys

High thermal and electrical conductivity, capillaries very well into joints, and holds up well in applications with lots of stress and with CTE mismatches.
