Trust me, you too can solder with a little reading, a small investment and a little practice. ... 1) Plug the soldering iron in for about 2-5 minutes until it has reached the necessary temperature to melt solder (500-800 degrees).

Solder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A solder is a fusible metal alloy with a melting point or melting range of 90 to 450 °C (200 to 840 °F), used in a process called soldering where it is melted to join metallic surfaces. It is especi...

Soldering - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Soldering is a process in which two or more metal items are joined together by melting and flowing a filler metal into the joint, the filler metal having a relatively low melting point. Soft solderi...

Some versions might have a built-in digital temperature readout, and will have a control knob to enable you to vary the setting. The temperature could be boosted for soldering larger joints, for example, or for using higher melting-point solders (e.g. silver solder).

However, most of these materials are not suitable for lead-free solder, such as Sn/Ag (m.p. 225°C), Sn/Ag/Cu (m.p. 217°C), applications that usually have higher melting temperatures than the eutectic Sn-Pb solder (m.p. 183°C). Due to the ... In this study, curing kinetics, glass transition temperature (Tg),

Originality/value – As a novel developed lead-free solder alloy, the Sn-0.4Co-0.7Cu (wt%) alloy provides a cost advantage compared to the extensively used Sn-Ag-Cu system. Some limitations still exist, however, mainly due to its relatively higher melting temperature compared to that of eutectic Sn-37Pb solder.

Summary: We studied the reactivity of Sn-Ag solder with Au/Ni-20Co plating to form the joint which does not melt during secondary reflow soldering. The addition of Co is effective for rapid formation of the intermetellic compounds, which heightened the melting temperature of the solder layer.
