Manufacturers no longer have to settle for unacceptable levels of voiding when soldering QFNs, CSPs, or BGAs. Indium Corporation will help customers Avoid the Void™ with its void-reducing no-clean solder pastes at IPC APEX Expo on March 15-17 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Indium Corporation, the industry-leading source of void-reducing materials and results, has specifically formulated Indium10.1 and Indium8.9HF solder pastes to reduce voiding significantly below the industry average for improved finished goods reliability.
Indium10.1 delivers excellent print transfer and response-to-pause for low-voiding performance. In addition, it provides robust reflow capabilities and a wide processing window, which accommodates various board sizes and throughput requirements, and minimizes defects.
Halogen-free Indium8.9HF solder paste has a unique oxidation barrier technology that makes it perfectly suited for a variety of applications, especially automotive assembly.
In addition to outstanding print transfer and excellent response-to-pause, Indium10.1 and Indium8.9HF both provide excellent pin-in-paste solderability and hole-fill.
Indium10.1 and Indium8.9HF are part of Indium Corporation’s family of high-performance, lead-free, low-voiding, no-clean solder pastes. For more information about Indium Corporation’s low-voiding solder paste, email askus@indium.com or click here.

Fresh PCB Concepts: Assembly Challenges with Micro Components and Standard Solder Mask Practices
06/26/2025 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsMicro components have redefined what is possible in PCB design. With package sizes like 01005 and 0201 becoming more common in high-density layouts, designers are now expected to pack more performance into smaller spaces than ever before. While these advancements support miniaturization and functionality, they introduce new assembly challenges, particularly with traditional solder mask and legend application processes.
Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
