Indium to Feature Indium8.9HF Solder Paste at NEPCON South China
August 1, 2018 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Indium Corporation will feature its ultra-reliable Indium8.9HF Solder Paste at NEPCON South China, August 28-30, in Shenzhen, China.
Indium8.9HF Solder Paste is an air reflow, no-clean solder paste specifically formulated to accommodate the higher processing temperatures required by the SnAgCu, SnAg, and other alloy systems favored by the automotive electronics industry.
The Indium8.9HF series delivers no-clean, halogen-free solder paste solutions designed to produce low-voiding—plus improved stability—during the printing process. Indium8.9HF:
- Demonstrates consistent printing and reflow performance for up to 12 months in refrigerated storage
- Maintains excellent printing and reflow performance after remaining at room temperature for one month
- Delivers excellent response-to-pause printing performance even after being left on the stencil for 60 hours
With all these qualities, Indium8.9HF solder paste is able to enhance the reliability of automotive products in three ways:
- Improved thermal conductivity and thermal reliability with industry-proven low-voiding performance
- Enhanced mechanical reliability when paired with Indium Corporation’s newest high-reliability alloy, Indalloy®276, which allows for a stable and consistent performance under a harsh environment (Indalloy®276 is ideal for operating temperatures equal to or greater than 125°C)
- Higher electrical reliability with an enhanced SIR
Additionally, Indium Corporation will spotlight Indium10.1HF Solder Paste—an air reflow, no-clean, halogen-free, Pb-free solder paste specifically formulated to achieve ultra-low voiding, especially in automotive applications.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
