Funded Activity Summary

Development of new lead-free solders for use on aluminium conductors in photovoltaic systems and electric vehicles. This project will tackle a longstanding environmental issue within electrical and electronic industries through developing lead-free solder alloys for use on relatively low cost aluminium substrates. As aluminium is a very light metal, this research will have significant impact on the development of photovoltaic devices and electric vehicles. The developed technology will also promote the use of aluminium alloys and bring direct benefit to Australian mining and light metal industries.
