Abstract
A solder product 20 includes: a lead-free solder part 21 containing tin as a main component and a metal element other than lead as a secondary component; and a carboxylic acid having 10 to 20 carbons, the carboxylic acid being mainly distributed over the surface of the solder product 20 to form a surface layer 22. The carboxylic acid is preferably a fatty acid having 12 to 16 carbons, and more preferably a palmitic acid.
Claims3
A printed wiring board comprising:
- a substrate;
- a wiring pattern layer formed in a thin-film shape on the substrate, the wiring pattern layer constituting a wiring pattern;
- and
- a solder layer formed in a thin-film shape on the wiring pattern layer, the solder layer containing a solder, wherein
- the solder in the solder layer is manufactured by a method comprising:
- a heating step of heating and melting a raw material to obtain a molten metal, the raw material containing tin as a main component, a metal element other than lead as a secondary component, and a carboxylic acid having 10 to 20 carbons;
- a removing step of removing, from the molten metal set to a pre-filtration temperature from 230° C. to 260° C., solids having a diameter of more than 10 μm and present within the molten metal by filtering the solids with a filter having an aperture size of not more than 10 μm, wherein the filter is heated by a heater, and a post-filtration temperature of the filtered molten metal is 230° C. to 260° C.;
- and
- a cooling step of cooling and solidifying the molten metal with the solids removed therefrom and depositing the carboxylic acid at a surface of the solder product to form a surface layer.
A printed circuit board comprising:
- a substrate;
- and
- an electronic component soldered onto the substrate by a solder product, wherein
- the solder product is manufactured by a method comprising:
- a heating step of heating and melting a raw material to obtain a molten metal, the raw material containing tin as a main component, a metal element other than lead as a secondary component, and a carboxylic acid having 10 to 20 carbons;
- a removing step of removing, from the molten metal set to a pre-filtration temperature from 230° C. to 260° C., solids having a diameter of more than 10 μm and present within the molten metal by filtering the solids with a filter having an aperture size of not more than 10 μm, wherein the filter is heated by a heater, and a post-filtration temperature of the filtered molten metal is 230° C. to 260° C.;
- and
- a cooling step of cooling and solidifying the molten metal with the solids removed therefrom and depositing the carboxylic acid at a surface of the solder product to form a surface layer.
An electronic component including a terminal, wherein
- a surface of the terminal is covered with a solder product manufactured by a method comprising:
- a heating step of heating and melting a raw material to obtain a molten metal, the raw material containing tin as a main component, a metal element other than lead as a secondary component, and a carboxylic acid having 10 to 20 carbons;
- a removing step of removing, from the molten metal set to a pre-filtration temperature from 230° C. to 260° C., solids having a diameter of more than 10 μm and present within the molten metal by filtering the solids with a filter having an aperture size of not more than 10 μm, wherein the filter is heated by a heater, and a post-filtration temperature of the filtered molten metal is 230° C. to 260° C.;
- and
- a cooling step of cooling and solidifying the molten metal with the solids removed therefrom and depositing the carboxylic acid at a surface of the solder product to form a surface layer.
