Page 75 Henkel Develops Low-Voiding Solder Paste
Irvine, CA — Henkel Corporation has expanded its LOCTITE® GC solder portfolio with the introduc- tion of its latest LOCTITE GC 18 solder paste. The new material
stable for one year when stored at 79.7°F (26.5°C) and for one month at temperatures up to 104°F
is a low-voiding formulation
designed for use with multiple component sizes and types, including large, thermally challenged devices, such as MOSFETs, LPBGAs, QFNs, and large-array components. Available in Type 3 and Type 4 pastes, halogen-free and lead-free LOC- TITE GC 18 provides the comprehensive tempera- ture stability benefits inherent with the LOCTITE GC platform, delivering sustainability, reliability and a low cost of ownership. LOCTITE GC 18 exhibits low voiding with
diverse components, including 008004 (0201 met- ric) chip resistors and capacitors, 0.02 in. (0.4 mm) pitch BGAs, SOICs, QFPs, and QFNs, measuring greater than 0.4 x 0.4 in. (1 x 1 cm). The material’s voiding performance has been vali- dated with various surface finishes, board sizes, components, atmos- pheres, reflow profiles, and reflow ovens. Notably, the material exhibits low voiding results with reflow in air — a capability that allows assembly specialists to further reduce opera- tional expenditures by reducing nitrogen use. Consistent with other LOCTITE GC formulations, LOCTITE GC 18 is
