Metal-based immersion tin chemicals for PCB surface finish

The drive for using lead-free technology in electronic equipment will lead to an increased demand for immersion tin as an alternative finish as a substitute for commonly used HASL. If and how immersion tin technology is suitable for increasing demands resulting from lead-free processing is not known today. Answering this question is the aim of this project. As a preliminary result a suitable immersion tin process has already been defined and will be fine-tuned further in the course of the Project. SMEs using the technology will be able to match competition on the market when leading OEMs will demand and leading PCB manufacturers will switch to lead-free technologies in the near future. Ormecon have provided process chemicals and technical service (guidelines) as well as support to ensure the best process output and help SMEs to remain a high level of knowledge and competitiveness.

Lead-free soldered devices using PCBs with immersion tin finish

Lead-free soldered devices using PCBs with immersion tin finish will provide environmentally friendly electronic devices. Elbi and GS will assemble advanced electronic components on PCBs with new immersion tin and will manufacture "green" electronic equipment for the European market. The products made by the project participants will have a legitimate right to bear 'environment friendly' labels, thus increasing market competitiveness. Moreover, SMEs will be able to match their competition on the market where the leading companies use lead free issue as a marketing and market protection tool. The companies most interested in the lead-free technology are those operating in the fields of communications, professional electronics and consumer electronics.
