Electronic devices which are prone to be damaged by occasional drops are better off by using a solder alloy more resistant to drops. This is specially true for devices not exposed to high thermal stress like handheld devices, head phones, hearing aids, key fobs,…

The wetting behaviors of low-silver alloy SnAg1.0Cu0.5 are comparable to a considerable degree with eutectic standard SnAg3.0Cu0.5 and can be in many cases used as a “drop in” solution. The drop and vibration resistance of a low silver alloy compared to SAC305 could favor these alloys.

The mico-electronics from hearing aid devices or in-ear headphones could depending on the design, be exposed to earwax and skin oil. This could lead to premature failure and can easily be avoided by applying an ultra-thin coating of less then a micro thick. A perfect solution for applications where limits of space and weight prevent other ways of protection.

Our Ultra-thin coatings are easy to apply by a dipping process and will due to it`s excellent surface tension flow into the smallest cavities. Coating and drying is done under 5 minutes.
