Production and distribution of metal jointing materials for electronics (solder, flux, brazing alloys, etc.). Sales of nonferrous metal
category: Manufacturer of Components
Nihon Superior was founded in 1966 when it began marketing unique flux products imported from the US. Since then, we have made our mark on society by gathering the most advanced soldering and brazing technologies and products from around the world, and supplying them to companies in the metal-joining industry.
Backed by our knowledge of these technologies, we have developed into a global company by establishing manufacturing and sales centers in Japan as well as in Asia and Europe, and by forming business partnerships with overseas companies.
We are committed to earning our customers' highest level of trust by taking full responsibility for every product we deliver to them, and we are ready to meet their rising demands for diversification, increasingly sophisticated technologies, and environmental protection. As always, we appreciate your ongoing support of our business endeavors.

Abstract: |
While it has long been known that the Cu6Sn5 intermetallic that plays a critical role in the reliability of solder joints made with tin-containing alloys on copper substrates exists in two different crystal forms over the temperature range to which electronics circuitry is exposed during assembly and service, it has only recently been recognized that the change from one form to the other has implications for solder joint reliability. (..) In this paper the authors report a study of the effect of cooling rates on Cu6Sn5 crystals. Cooling rates from 200°C ranged from 10°C/minute to 100°C/minute and the effect of isothermal ageing at intermediate temperatures was also studied. The extent of the phase transformation after each regime was determined using synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The findings have important implications for the manufacture of solder joints and their in-service performance... First published in the 2012 IPC APEX EXPO technical conference proceedings....... |
