Phil,

According to the July 2004 Technical Adaptation Committee (TAC) London
Workshop:

'Homogeneous Material' - a material that cannot be mechanically
disjointed into different materials

'Homogeneous' - of uniform composition throughout

'Mechanically Disjointed' - mechanical actions suchas unscrewing,
cutting, crushing, grinding and abrasive processes

These definitions came from Steve Andrews, Department OF Trade &
Industry (DTI), when he attended the IPC / JEDEC Lead Free Soldering
Conference in April, 2005.

Hope this helps.

Good Luck

Subject: [LF] definition of Homogeneous


Good Afternoon,

It may have been discussed, but can some one point me at a layman's
definition of homogeneous as it pertains to lead-free.  All the
definitions I have seen make my eyes roll into my head and leave me
babbling in the corner.  I need to be able to explain this in plain
English to my engineering force.

Thanks in advance,

Phil Nutting
