[Elecraft] What is it called?

2009-04-10 Thread The Smiths

What is it called when my shoe is un-tied? Or should I post more about how 
Elecraft's telephone line that wasn't working yesterday?  I'm not sure what 
other nonesense I can come up with to spend an ENTIRE day and over 50 Posts 
with today... Hmmm When did this site become a Chat room?

[Elecraft] What is it called?

2009-04-09 Thread Alan Price

When ice freezes, it is called frozen.  When glue hardens, it dries, and 
concrete cures.  What is it called when solder becomes solid again after being 
in the liquid state.

I've always thought it was called cooling or solidifying.

 What is it called when solder becomes solid

You said it yourself. Molten metal SOLIDIFIES when cooled. :)

 If that is what happened it is usually called a dry joint...

I have the opposite question:  What do you call it when solder goes from
the solid to the liquid state?  I guess melt but somehow that sounds a
little odd to me when referring to solder.

I think this thread has gone about to the limit,  but, soldering is bonding 
materials together with a eutectic material, in this case usually a lead/tin 
based 63/37% material.  Soldering/heating is what you do to accomplish the 
act.  Nuf said.

Re: [Elecraft] What is it called?

2009-04-09 Thread Don Wilhelm
Eutectic only applies to the 37/63 solder alloy.
Eutectic infers two things - 1) it is the alloy with the lowest 
temperature melting point, and 2) there is no plastic state, meaning 
it goes directly from a liquid to a solid with no plastic state in between.

The second point is the most important to us who solder - it will 
prevent 'cold solder' connections which can result from movement while 
the solder is cooling.  If there is movement during the plastic state, 
the solder may crystallize and have poor conductivity as a result.

For those purchasing solder, the 37/63 alloy is preferred  over the 
60/40 alloy for this very reason.
