Soldier Ally - Worldwake Tokens

Solder is a metallic material that is used to connect metal workpieces. The choice of specific solder alloys depends on their melting point, chemical reactivity, mechanical properties, toxicity, and other properties. Hence a wide range of solder alloys exist, and only major ones are listed below. Since early 2000s the use of lead in solder alloys is discouraged by several governmental guidelines in the European Union, Japan and other countries, such as Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive and Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive. Despite regulatory encouragement, the industry transition to lead-free solders has encountered technical challenges related to process compatibility, alloy reliability, and solder joint microstructure that have required extensive study and adaptation.
