It’s great when you find that perfect product, the product that makes life easy. Sometimes that perfect material has already been formulated – it may have been created ahead of its time!
A rich history of flux and alloy development keeps us on top of the game. As an application engineer, I constantly learn about advancements that happened long ago and never found a market. Even if these exact products never reach the semiconductor market, they provide a base of knowledge and a starting point to develop new advanced materials with a shorter cycle time, and more confidence.
