AIM to Participate at SMTA Silicon Valley Expo & Tech Forum
November 21, 2019 | AIM SolderEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AIM Solder, a leading global manufacturer of solder assembly materials for the electronics industry, is pleased to announce their participation in the upcoming SMTA Silicon Valley Expo and Tech Forum taking place on December 4, 2019 at Bestronics Incorporated in San Jose, CA. AIM Solder will highlight its REL electronic solders and its new RX18 and CX18 cored solder wire.
REL22™ is an award-winning, high reliability alloy developed to address reliability and production quality issues common to similar multi-element alloys. Both internal and customer testing has proven that REL22 improves product survival in extreme thermal exposure operating environments such as under-hood automotive, avionics/aerospace and LED lighting. REL61™ is ideally suited for industries which require a cost effective alternative to SAC305 with no loss of processing performance or durability. REL61 provides significant advantages over other no-low silver alloys by offering better flow characteristics at lower temperatures, thus reducing PCB damage and assembly costs.
AIM will also feature its new cored wire solders, RX18 and CX18. The award-winning RX18 is engineered for automated soldering and promotes thermal transfer, fast wetting and reduces voids/skips. With an operator friendly, low odor/smoke formula, CX18 extends the solder tip life and leaves clear, minimal residues.

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.
