sonic solderTM
SonicSolder is an EWI patented binary lead-free solder alloy that melts at 231°C. In conjunction with ultrasonic soldering, it can be used to join difficult-to-wet materials like aluminum, titanium, glass, and ceramics. In various metal-metal (copper, aluminum, titanium) combinations, shear strength of about 5 ksi have been obtained.
SonicSolder is of interest in the medical industry due to its bio-compatibility. The lack of silver in its composition also makes it highly attractive for lead-free soldering in electronics applications. Using conventional melting practices, it can be easily produced into simple shapes such as wires.
