Paul, I believe the EMPF in Indianapolis has a process for that or was working on one. You can check them out at http://www.empf.org/html/empfset.htm Ken Bloomquist -----Original Message----- From: Paul Truit [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 10:41 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] Restoring solderability With today's economic climate we have found that a few parts have been sitting too long in inventory. The solderability has been affected. Specifically it was a two pin terminal block that was shipped to us in a cardboard box and the part was pressed down into styrofoam. I believe the sulfur from the cardboard box has out gassed and negatively affected the part's solderability. Is there a method to effectively and efficiently restore the solderability?
