AIM Solder WS482 is a water soluble, halide-free flux cored wire that is highly active and compatible with water soluble solder paste chemistries. WS482 offers improved thermal stability, allowing it to be processed with standard or high temperature alloys. WS482 offers residues that are non-corrosive and therefore may be used without cleaning for applications where conductivity will not cause a problem (such as soldering wires). Post-process residues are safe to remain on many assemblies for up to two to three days. WS482 produces excellent tarnish and oxide removal, will not tarnish PCBs, copper, or solder joints, and offers excellent wetting and soldering characteristics. WS482 flux residue is readily soluble in hot water.
SN100C is a lead-free silver-free solder alloy developed by Nihon Superior in Japan. SN100C offers user-friendly properties and has been proven in commercial applications since 1999. The inclusion of nickel reduces copper dissolution and produces a bright shiny solder fillet. The addition of germanium reduces dross formation and promotes solder flow. Performance in wave and selective soldering is similar to SAC alloys at considerably lower cost. SN100C is available in bar, solid and cored wire, and solder paste.
