Indium Corporation expert Andreas Karch, regional technical manager, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, will present at the EPP InnovationsFORUM Germany conference on March 13 in Böblingen, Germany.
Karch’s presentation, "Future-Proof Flux Systems in Solder Pastes: The Requirements for Electrical Reliability are Increasing," examines how changing requirements for assembly materials has placed higher demands for electrical reliability on these products, specifically fluxes in the automotive sector. He will also discuss how industry standards and test conditions have evolved to respond to these changes.
As a regional technical manager, Karch provides support, including sharing process knowledge and making technical recommendations, for the use of Indium Corporation’s solder paste, solder preforms, fluxes, and thermal management materials. He has more than 20 years of automotive industry experience, including the advanced development of customized electronics. Karch is an ECQA-certified integrated design engineer and has a six sigma yellow belt. The Austrian Patent Office also selected him as one of the 2014 recipients of the Top 10 Inventum Awards for an automotive LED assembly. Karch maintains a thorough understanding of process technologies and project management skills.
Indium Corporation will feature solder products for high-reliability applications at the show, including the Indium8.9HF solder paste that exceeds all requirements for higher electronical reliability. Please talk with their experts and find out more for your processes.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Gold Mitigation for Class 2 Electronics
05/07/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileIn electronic assemblies, the integrity of connections between components is paramount for ensuring reliability and performance. Gold embrittlement and dissolution are two critical phenomena that can compromise this integrity. Gold embrittlement occurs when gold diffuses into solder joints or alloys, resulting in mechanical brittleness and an increased susceptibility to cracking. Conversely, gold dissolution involves the melting away of gold into solder or metal matrices, potentially altering the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint.
