Indium Corporation to showcase at productronica India

A strong supporter of the Make in India campaign, Indium Corporation is committed to serving the region’s growing EV market.

“With our facility in Chennai, Indium Corporation is well positioned to support regional demand for consumer and infrastructure electronics, including EV manufacturing,” said Senior Country Sales Manager Damian Santhanasamy. “We look forward to serving the Indian electronics market, not only with our innovative materials, but by providing local technical support and expertise.”

With its significant automotive industry expertise and an award-winning portfolio of proven products, Indium Corporation will feature its Rel-ion suite of electrical, mechanical, and thermal solutions to reduce EV manufacturers’ time to market.

More than three million EVs are on the road with Indium Corporation’s reliable, scalable, and proven Rel-ion products. Rel-ion material solutions deliver reliability by:

• Eliminating non-wet opens and head-in-pillow defects
• Preventing dendritic growth by meeting stricter surface insulation resistance requirements
• Preventing solder delamination with precise bondline control and increased creep and fatigue resistance
• Reducing hot spots-induced voiding through improved thermal efficiency

Some of the featured Rel-ion products include:

• Durafuse LT, a novel solder paste alloy technology with versatile characteristics that enable it for energy savings, high-reliability, low-temperature, step soldering, and assemblies with large temperature gradients. It also provides superior drop shock performance as compared to conventional low-temperature solders, outclassing BiSn or BiSnAg alloys, and performing better than SAC305 with optimum process setup.
• The Indium8.9HF Solder Paste Series, an industry-proven solder paste series that delivers no-clean, halogen-free solutions designed to achieve high surface insulation resistance (SIR) and improve stability during the printing process for high-reliability automotive electronics.
• InFORMS, reinforced solder alloy fabrications, improve mechanical and thermal reliability, and are specifically designed to produce consistent bondline thickness for power module applications. They also address specific challenges for the power electronics industry by providing an enhanced material for the development of more reliable and higher-performance modules.
• Heat-Spring solutions, ideal for TIM2 applications, are a compressible interface between a heat source and a heat-sink. These indium-containing TIMs offer superior thermal conductivity over non-metals—with pure indium metal delivering 86W/mK.
