A Brief Discussion on whether halogen-free solder paste can replace lead-free solder paste?

As a professional solder manufacturer, JJY is often asked whether halogen-free solder paste can replace lead-free solder paste. As for whether it is possible or not, the solder paste manufacturer will analyze the characteristics of halogen-free solder paste with everyone.

Halogen-free solder pasteCharacteristics: This type of solder paste has high stability, does not produce halogens, and has no impact on the environment. After soldering with halogen-free solder paste, the residual debris appears transparent. It is suitable for reflow soldering processes with a wide window and can also be used for needle detection tests. During wave soldering, it has good wettability regardless of the peak value, and the voids on the pad are very few.

Halogen-free solder paste is a new technological product specifically developed by European and American countries. It is lead-free and does not contain halogens. The halogen-free solder paste produced by JJY has passed the authoritative halogen-free test certification. At the same time, some relevant research has been conducted on the soldering effect and safety of the halogen-free solder paste, making significant adjustments. It can completely solve the current domestic safety management requirements for halogen-free solder paste. It can meet the quality requirements of customers for halogen-free solder paste.

Generally speaking, if there are no restrictions on production costs, halogen-free solder paste can still be used as a substitute for lead-free solder paste. Halogen-free solder paste is actually lead-free solder paste with higher specifications. It's just that the production cost of halogen-free solder paste is generally much higher compared to other lead-free solder pastes. At the same time, the soldering activity of halogen-free solder paste is often better than that of lead-free solder paste. However, the soldering technology of halogen-free solder paste is of much higher quality. As long as the reliability test of halogen-free solder paste is conducted before soldering, it is completely worry-free to replace lead-free solder paste with halogen-free solder paste.
