1 29. 7 Technical data TAMURA 1. Introduction LFSOLDER TLF-24-NH(2-36) is the Pb-free and Halogen-free solder paste which it used spherical Pb-free solder powder and the halogen-free flux. Also, after reflow, the flux residue of this paste becomes with halogen free, because it does not include halogen. As the paste contains no Pb, it will largely contribute to the protection of global environment. Furthermore, excellent reliability can be obtained with the flux without washing.

4 8. Recommended reflow profile Shown in Fig.11 is a recommended temperature profile for air reflow. Beware of sudden rise in preheat temperature as it will cause slumping of solder paste which tends to result in solder balls. Temperature( ) Time(s) Fig.11 Recommended temperature profile for air reflow a) Preheat Set the temperature rising speed A at a rate of 1-3 per second. Rapid temperature raising in pre-heat zone tends to cause solder balls. It will be appropriate if pre-heat time B were set in the range from 6 to 1 seconds. If pre-heat is insufficient, rather large solder balls tend to be caused. Conversely, if it is excessive, fine balls and large balls are caused in clusters. Pre-heat ending temperature C would be appropriate if it were set in the range from 15 to 19. If the temperature is too low, non-melting tends to be caused often after reflow. b) Heating If the temperature rise is too fast it may cause excessive slump of the solder paste. Set the peak temperature D in the range from 235 to 245. Adjust the melting time, the time at over 22, E to be from 2 to 6 seconds. 9. Cautions for safety and health a) Store in refrigerator to maintain characteristics of LFSOLDER TLF-24-NH(2-36). b) Break the seal after returning to room temperature without fail, before use. In case of 5 kg container, it will take approximately one to two hours at 25. c) Physiological interaction varies by individuals. As a prudent policy, therefore, care, should beexercised not to inhale gas of fume of solvent emitted during operations and not to have your skin exposed (especially mucous membrane and other parts vulnerable to stimuli) for a long time. d) This paste is contains the organic solvent, but it is no flammable. e) If the paste sticks to the skin, wipe it off with ethanol and the like, and wash thoroughly with soapy water. Please refer to MSDS before you use this solder paste. The physical chemistry-character among written contents etc. is not a guarantee value. The evaluation of danger and noxiousness is based and makes material, information, and the data, etc. which can be acquired now. However, it is not because all material was covered and note handling enough, please. As for notes, it is the one intended for usual handling. Special handling is not assumed. Please observe the restriction of related various regulations, and use after executing suitable safety measures for the usage. Before using it in your company, it is related with process conditions or reliability. Please conduct sufficient examination surely performed. c) Cooling Careful about slow cooling as it may cause the positional shift of parts and decline in joining strength at times. Perform adequate test in advance as the reflow temperature profile will vary according to the conditions of parts and boards and the specifications of the reflow furnace. 4
