If this is like baseball, I'm batting ,500!!
I am not a chemist, I'm truly sorry if the explanation is not all that
accurate. But I do manufacture boards, and my chips do not crack.
Can someone then tell me why we bother having a preheat section in the
wave?
Cheers!

---Sorry, but there is no such condition; different materials will
always
have a differentiasl thermal expansion, unless they have identical CTEs.

---Quite correct.

is irrelevant.
---Sorry again, but there is no such state; as long as you raise the
temperature materials will expand, unless they have a negaqtive CTE.
