Regarding the boiling point, MSDS may have some infomation reflecting that. Other description such as long stencil life and long tack time may also reflect. Wetting rate typically is not stated in product data sheet. You will need to determine it y

Dr. Lee: I have read that fillet lifting can be exacerbated by certain types of Pb-free solder. Can you explain which alloys cause this and why? Thanks! Gene Smelik Cookson Performance Solutions

Hello, Dr. Ning-Cheng Lee The melting point of solder PB-Free its to higher do you now the lower temperature of an PB-Free and its constitution. Its true if the solder paste have in its constitution a Bismut component the melting point its lower?

Dr. Lee, Following up on this thread, I have read that a Pd-Ni lead finish is one promising option, but that Ni-oxidation might be problem. Can you explain this more? Thanks, Gene Smelik Cookson Performance Solutions

With the introduction of new lead-free alloys and higher temperatures to meet their specifications, can we expect different and/or more residues in the reflow soldering process?

Good morning Dr. Lee. I was wondering how flux chemistries have changed, or will change, with the transiton to Pb-Free, given the higher reflow temperatures required for SMT assembly?

Yes, no-clean is more of a challenge, particularly for halide-free no-clean. Requirement on probe testability will make it more difficult.

What is the preferred method of cleaning misprinted double sided No-Clean boards which are assembled on side 1 ? What type of equipment is being used ? What solvents / detergents work well for a variety of solder pastes / glues ?

There is no easy answer to this as no one wants to do it. There are lots of systems out there but cleaning dried paste is an issue and getting paste out of holes. You should speak to the paste and adhesive supplier to check on soluability of materia
