Indium to Showcase High-Reliability Solder Technology at IPC APEX EXPO 2025
March 5, 2025 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Indium Corporation®, a leading materials provider for the electronics assembly market, will feature its high-reliability solder solutions at IPC APEX EXPO 2025, taking place March 18-20 in Anaheim, California.
Indium Corporation will showcase among its featured products:
- Durafuse® LT is an award-winning solder paste alloy system with versatile characteristics that enable energy savings, high reliability, and low-temperature step soldering. It is ideal for assemblies with large temperature gradients and large BGAs with complex warpage profiles. Durafuse® LT delivers superior thermal cycling and drop shock performance, outperforming conventional low-temperature solders like BiSn or BiSnAg alloys, and it even outperforms SAC305 with optimal process setup.
- Durafuse® HR, based on novel solder paste alloy technology, delivers enhanced thermal cycling performance (-40°C/125°C and -40°C/150°C) and superior voiding performance for high-reliability automotive applications. It also offers reduced solder joint cracking and increased shear strength.
- Indium12.9HF is a no-clean, halogen-free solder paste specifically formulated to accommodate fine-feature printing, as seen with 01005 and 008004 components. It offers unprecedented stencil print transfer efficiency to work in the broadest range of processes to boost SPI yields. Indium12.9HF also delivers low voiding at BGA, CSP, LGA, and QFN and high oxidation resistance without graping or solder balling on pads as small as 175 microns in air reflow.
- Indium8.9HF is an industry-proven solder paste series that delivers no-clean, halogen-free solutions designed to achieve high surface insulation resistance (SIR) and improve stability during the printing process for high-reliability automotive electronics.
- CW-807RS is a new high-reliability, halide- and halogen-free flux-cored wire that improves wetting speeds and cycle times for electronics assembly and robot soldering applications.
- CW-818 is a halide-free, no-clean cored wire with spatter control technology that provides fast wetting speeds to minimize cycle times in manual and robotic soldering processes.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Basics of Component Lead Tinning
04/02/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileThe component lead tinning process serves several critical functions, including removing gold plating, mitigation of tin whiskers, reconditioning of component solderability issues, and alloy conversion from lead-free (Pb-free) to tin-lead or from tin-lead to lead-free for RoHS compliance. We will cover each of these topics in more detail in upcoming columns.
