12 results about "Gunmetal" patented technology

Gunmetal, also known as red brass in the United States, is a type of bronze – an alloy of copper, tin, and zinc. Proportions vary but 88% copper, 8–10% tin, and 2–4% zinc is an approximation. Originally used chiefly for making guns, it has largely been replaced by steel. Gunmetal, which casts and machines well and is resistant to corrosion from steam and salt water, is used to make steam and hydraulic castings, valves, gears, statues, and various small objects, such as buttons. It has a tensile strength of 221 to 310 MPa, a specific gravity of 8.7, a Brinell hardness of 65 to 74, and a melting point of around 1,000 degrees Celsius.

This invention relates to the field of COF carrier technology, and more particularly to a COF carrier and its preparation method. The preparation method includes the following steps in sequence: coating, exposure, development, etching, micro-etching, first chemical tin plating, first baking, solder resist printing, second chemical tin plating, and second baking; wherein, the tin layer thickness of the first chemical tin plating is 0.05~0.08μm; the first baking makes the tin layer completely become a copper-tin alloy; solder resist printing uniformly prints a layer of ink on the non-lead area of ​​the carrier; and the second chemical tin plating is performed only on the lead area of ​​the carrier. This invention, by adjusting the production process and unfolding sequence of the COF carrier, and through the micro-etching process after desmearing and the second tin plating process, increases the copper content and reduces the amount of copper-tin alloy formed by the structural design of the COF carrier, thereby increasing the pure copper ratio of the circuit, improving the heat dissipation capacity of the COF carrier, and enhancing the packaging and testing efficiency of the COF carrier at the packaging and testing end.
