No que diz respeito à soldadura ou à humidificação (revestimento) com índio, pedem-nos frequentemente que comentemos a formação de óxido de índio e a forma de o remover. Também nos perguntam quanto tempo demora a formação do óxido

We are often asked if it is possible to solder to stainless steel and, if so, what is the best procedure.As you may already know, stainless steel is not easy to solder but it can be done with a

We are frequently asked if it is possible to solder to aluminum.The answer is yes, if the following guidelines are followed: FLUXES: Because it is difficult to solder to aluminum, Indium Corporation

Folks, Let’s see how Patty is doing with the latest crisis…… Upon hearing Claire Perkins inform her that Rob was in the hospital, Patty froze and her face looked ashen.She quickly

Two categories of solder are available to choose from when the in-service environment for a device reaches above 125°C either in continuous operation or thermal cycling accelerated life

Folks, Patty arrived at work an hour early to prepare for her meeting with ACME CEO Mike Madigan.Nineteen days ago, he had asked her to develop an electronics assembly metric that would correlate

Indium and indium-containing alloys see wide use in a multitude of soldering applications. Indium has many attractive properties such as remaining ductile at cryogenic temperatures, compatibility

It is often said that a chain is only as strong as it weakest link, the same can be true for a series of solder joints on a component. When one is bad, the rest are useless. Quite often, voiding is

O índio metálico tem a capacidade única de soldar a frio (unir-se) a si próprio à temperatura ambiente. Embora, tecnicamente, não se trate de soldadura, esta propriedade torna-o especialmente útil para ligações a baixa temperatura

Tombstoning (also known as the Manhattan effect, drawbridge effect, or Stonehenge effect) is described (in the simplest, and most common, sense) as occurring when one end of a passive device, such as

Folks, Let's look in on Patty…… Patty was just finishing a report on work that she and Pete had performed with a team of her ACME colleagues on reducing the Head-in-Pillow (HIP)

Solder paste is comprised of powdered solder alloy suspended in a flux vehicle. There is a group of flux ingredients that is generically identified as

Following on from our discussions of last time… As you will recall from the previous post on this topic, My friend and colleague Chris Nash and I were discussing some puzzling results for low

Intermetallics are a necessary evil in the metal-to-metal bonding world, which definitely includes soldering. There are two basic ways that metal will "chemically"bond to another metal: 1)

My friend and colleague Chris Nash and I were recently discussing some puzzling results for low dip height found during testing of package-on-package (PoP) materials. The findings will be of interest

Qualquer pessoa que tenha utilizado a soldadura por onda para montar PCBs conhece a camada de metal que se acumula na superfície lisa da solda fundida.
