Guenter,
Thanks for your response.  I also had trouble finding a liquid with a
boiling point of 225, but according to an article mentioned earlier (
www.assemblymag.com ) the liquids of different boiling points can be blended
to achieve what you need.
Thanks,
Jim Kittel

Jim

I believe the VP is still a good principle. However, the industrial partner
in LEADFREE that runs the VP trials told me that he has to use a liquid with
a boiling point of 270 deg.C and that there is nothing available that boils
around 230 deg.
I had problem to believe this but also after asking again I got the same
answer.

Best regards

Guenter
