Solder paste manufacturers briefly discuss what the difference is between solder and tin?

Everyone knows that solder is widely used in the electronics industry. Some people often ask about the differences in physical properties between tin and solder. Generally, many production personnel usually use it in some simple soldering tasksSolder wireNow, the solder paste manufacturer will briefly discuss the use of an electric soldering iron to solder items:

1They are essentially different. Tin is an elemental metal. Solder is an alloy. Solder is a mixture. Rosin and flux were added to the solder. Tin is merely a kind of element (metal). When solder is heated, there will be a smell of rosin. Heating elemental tin is odorless.

2They have different physical properties. The melting points are different. The melting point of tin is high, while that of solder is low. Tin is a low-melting-point metallic element with a silvery white luster. It is divalent or tetravalent in compounds and is not oxidized by air. Solder is a kind of solder with a relatively low melting point, mainly referring to solder made of tin-based alloys. The manufacturing method of solder is to first produce ingots by melting and then process them into materials under pressure.

3They have different uses. Tin is non-toxic and not prone to oxidation or discoloration. It has excellent sterilization, purification and preservation effects. In daily life, it is often used for food preservation, as an anti-corrosion film on the inner layer of canned food, etc. As a trace element in the human body, tin plays a very important role in our health.

Solder is widely used in the electronics industry, home appliance manufacturing, automotive manufacturing, repair industry and daily life.
