Thank's Pete, I know is an old product but I would know its reflow thermal profile because I'm not sure about it. It's a linear melting or an melting with soak zone ? I haven't data on alphametals.com ...

Hi Patrick, For UP 78 the best profile is also the easiest. Straight ramp to 220-225 1-2 degrees C per second TAL 45-60 seconds drop it staight off The Tech bulletin says the exact same thing. Former Alpha Guy here

Hi Cardinal, OK. Thank's. It's all right. What do you about SAC305 ? Do we use a linear melting too ?

Recommend to check http://leadfree.ipc.org I agreed the lead free is a must for environmental and human health. Not sure how soon they can found out another harmful material

No thanks Rob I don't want these jokers to come to the conclusion that humans are the biggest producers of CO2 simply by breathing. The good part is plants convert it back to O2. So I suggest y'all keep some plants in the greenhouse and we be fine.

CO2 is not the problem, CO (carbon monoxide) produced by combustion (engines,fires, etc) is. Trees and vegetation can process CO2, but not CO.

Regarding Ken's statement that "Its market protectionism for the Europeans" - this is nonsense. European producers have to meet the requirements too, and they're no better at it than anyone else.

It is interesting that I have heard the market protectionaism statement from numerous people (CEOs and the like)

I heard that Steam Aging (storage) tests would be inappropriate for gold finishes. Is this a correct statement? If so, what are the reasons? How bad is the shelf life of ENIG
