As I know, the encapsulation effect occurs only with rosin based fluxes. So if you have a PBA soldered using RA Flux, you should either wash it well, or leave it alone and it will be safe. For NC process the story is different because there�s no re

Assuming you are going to build using a Leaded part on a Lead Free Process - beware of Weak Joints. I saw this at a large Multinational company - They had secondary reflow on a Top Side QFP when the PCB went over the wave. We did pull strength tests

What do you mean by "But after performing temperature cycle test, the former aging rate (from the shear strength ) seems faster than the latter."? Comments are: I can't recall having heard the term "precipitation hardness" [not that that means anyt

Shear tests are [in my opinion] senseless. The shear stress you measure depends more on the shear rate and on the point where the force is applied than on the grain structure. When shearing a component, you not only apply shear stress, but also roll

In the newspaper, I read about "BIG Daddy" ice cream by DeConna Ice Cream Co. of Orange Lake, FL. According to the packaging label, a 12 oz serving "BIG Daddy" has 100 calories and 2 grams of fat. At only 2 Weight Watchers points, the stuff is virt

Gentlemen, This is an interesting topic. If one refers to the Nihon Superior patent, they make the following claims. "Germanium makes the crystal finer when the alloy solidifies. Germanium appears on a grain boundary, preventing the crystal from b

Ron, have a look at http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/cgmphome.html It would be a nightmare, if your plant is not structured to support it. It's a huge pain in the fanny even when you (alledgedly) are. I'm not sure what you're pursuing, but if you're c
