Which Trends Are Expected To Transform The Solder Materials Market?
Advancements in technology constitute a significant trend in the solder materials industry. Firms involved in this market are leveraging innovative technologies for soldering metal alloys to maintain a competitive edge. For instance, in June 2022, SAFI-Tech Inc., a company specializing in lead-free soldering alloys production based in the USA, introduced a novel super-cooled soldering technique utilizing SAC305 to counteract challenges associated with high temperatures. Their micro-encapsulation procedure creates a new format that sustains the supercooled liquid phase of SAC305 within a nanofilm shell. This extension allows the liquid phase to persist to temperatures significantly lower than the alloy's usual solidification point, permitting its application across the entire expanded liquid range at temperatures appropriate for each product design. This advantageous approach prevents thermal damage to elements and resources, thus resoling issues related to quality resulting from a mismatch in the thermal expansion coefficient.
