Hi Pang Min, A. For the method of metal impurities analysis, you can refer to J-STD-006 and JIS Z 3910 J-STD-006A, sec 3.2. Any analytical method can be used. Note: Wet method is the basic one but it is impossible to implement in high volume production in solder bar supplier so that the instrumental method would be generally used in the supplier JIS Z3910 - Method of chemical analysis for solder. It lists out the method for different metal impurities. Several instrumental methods are popular use - Atomic absorption / ICP / Spark emission B. For the metal impurites spec in the solder bar, you can also refer to J-STD-006 and JIS Z 3282, For lead free alloy, sometimes, you have to refer to the supplier spec as some patent alloy has different requirement in the metal impurities control C. For the metal impurities control in the solder pot, you can refer to supplier recommendation , J-STD-002 / J-STD-003 table 3 or old IPC standard IPC S-805A D. Basically, your supplier has the ability to test the metal impurites inside the solder pot. You can ask them for help. If you want the third party report, you may ask some commerical lab to support. E. For 63/37 alloy, the copper content control is the critical one in addition to maintain the ratio of 63Sn /37Pb (eutectic point). Generally, for the stable process, the analysis of the solder every 2-3 months should be sufficient to see the trendency .
