Hi Ben,
Actually, it has never been proven that Sn62/Pb36/Ag2 prevents leaching on
components finished with silver—it appears to sound reasonable, but is an urban
myth.
Sn62/Pb36/Ag2 is somewhat stronger [which is totally without practical value—
and the still stronger SAC-solders cause pad cratering] than Sn63Pb and has a
slightly lower Solidus/Liquidus temperature. Creep-fatigue-wise there is no
significant difference.
