Abstract:
A high emissive paint comprises organic materials with different functional groups, one or more inorganic materials, and optionally other paint property adjusting agents. The infrared absorption range of the paint derives from organic functional groups, such as C—C, C—H, N—H, C—N, C—O and C—X groups, and the one or more inorganic materials. One or more inorganic materials may also be present as micro- or nano-sized particles.

Abstract:
Materials having increased mobility after heating are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the materials may be realized as a material which has reduced apparent molecular weight and/or viscosity and thus increased mobility after a heating process, and which consequently allows material residue to be more easily removed during subsequent cleaning processes. Such a material may be useful in any industrial process which requires heating the material followed by removing material residue.

In one particular exemplary embodiment, the alloy compositions may be realized as a composition of alloy or mixture consisting essentially of from about 90% to about 99.999% by weight indium and from about 0.001% to about 10% by weight germanium and unavoidable impurities. In another particular exemplary embodiment, the alloy compositions may be realized as a composition of alloy consisting essentially of from about 90% to about 99.999% by weight gallium and from about 0.001% to about 10% by weight germanium and unavoidable impurities.
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the invention provide laminate composite preform foils for high-temperature Pb-free soldering applications. The laminate composite preform foil is composed of a high-melting, ductile metal or alloy core layer and a low-melting solder coating layer at either side of the core layer. During soldering, the core metal, liquid solder layer, and substrate metals react and consume the low-melting solder phase to form high-melting intermetallic compound phases (IMCs). The resultant solder joint is composed of a ductile core layer sandwiched by the IMCs layers at substrate sides. The joint has a much higher remelt temperature than the original melting temperature of the initial solder alloy coating, allowing subsequent mounting of packaged devices.

Abstract:
Solder pastes for providing high elasticity, low rigidity solder joints are disclosed. The solder pastes may be used between two parts having large mismatches in their coefficients of thermal expansion and/or when there is a high likelihood of mechanical deformity when the two parts are soldered together. In one particular exemplary embodiment, a solder paste may be realized as a composition comprising a solder powder and high melting temperature particles with a flux, wherein the ratio between solder powder and high melting temperature particles may be between 2:1 and 1:10.
