Indium to Feature Indium8.9HF Solder Paste at IPC APEX EXPO 2019
November 14, 2018 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Indium Corporation will feature its ultra-reliable Indium8.9HF Solder Paste series at IPC APEX EXPO 2019, January 29-31, in San Diego, California, USA.
Electrical reliability is a must-have for electronic components and products to work properly, especially when issues like ionic contamination under low stand-off components can cause dendritic growth which can lead to intermittent operation or short-circuiting and ultimately field failures.
Indium8.9HF is an air reflow, no-clean solder paste specially formulated to enhance electrical reliability and eliminate dendritic growth in high power products, such as automotive electronics manufacturing.
Indium8.9HF delivers peace-of-mind, knowing that assemblies will maintain integrity with:
- Increased electrical reliability via enhanced surface insulation resistance (SIR) that inhibits current leakage and dendritic growth
- Improved thermal reliability due to its low-voiding performance on bottom terminating components (BTCs), reducing the risk of application or product failure
Indium8.9HF can accommodate the higher processing temperatures required by the SnAgCu, SnAg, and other alloy systems favored by the electronics industry to replace conventional Pb-bearing solders.

Book Excerpt: The Printed Circuit Assembler’s Guide to... Low-Temperature Soldering, Vol. 2, Chapter 5
12/23/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamChapter 5 introduces the advantages of using low-temperature soldering for through-hole components, including cost efficiency, reliability improvement, and reduced warpage. Also covered: the evaluation of different fluxes and the performance of HRL3 in wave soldering and selective soldering processes.
Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
12/13/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007This week, Peter Tranitz discusses the upcoming Pan-European Electronics Design Conference, set for Jan. 29-30 in Vienna, Austria. Pete Starkey brings us a review of the most recent EIPC Technical Snapshot webinar, which featured a global PCB maker update by Dr. Hayao Nakahara. Don't miss our interview with Manfred Huschka, who explains how companies can begin their own China Plus One plan. Stan Farnsworth breaks down photonic soldering and discusses its use in soldering materials that are not typically compatible. I also enjoyed Dan Beaulieu’s discussion on the value of consistency, and why just showing up for work is half the battle, especially in an inconsistent, evolving industry like ours.
Advancing Photonic Soldering
