Hi Pat! You will have molten Sn60 solder at a temperature of 1000C! Tin
boils at 2603C and Lead boils at 1750C so you won't start vaporizing the
Sn60 solder alloy until you get near the 1750 C point. I just have to ask -
why the concern of 1000C? Your printed wiring assembly will be quite toasty
and you would have molten solder running on the floor before you reach the
1000C mark!

Technetters,
this may seem like a crazy question but.....what would happen to 60/40
solder alloy at temperatures of 1000 degrees C?
