Techies
I know that there are solvents with very specific boiling points from 185C to >280C at 5C or 10C increments.
When I was involved in this technology, we used a 220C BP solvent that worked superbly with SAC305 and similar lead-free alloys that gave us a 1C DeltaT.
I would avoid high BP solvents unless your alloy really demands it. Of course part of the problem with most systems is maintaining and controlling the T profile. We did it in our equipment using a sealed chamber. That patented technology is, I believe, now exclusively available out of REHM - with whom I have no association, in case anyone was wondering!
Hope this helps
