Abstract

See full text

A material includes a plurality of supercooled micro-capsules each including a metallic core in a liquid state at a temperature below a solidification temperature of the metallic core and further includes a metallic shell surrounding each respective metallic core. A plurality of alloyed metallic particles and flux are mixed with the plurality of supercooled micro-capsules to form a solder paste. Upon heating the solder paste, the plurality of alloyed particles melt. As the metallic shells destabilize, the liquid metallic cores interdiffuse with the melted alloyed particles forming a new alloy that has a higher melting temperature than the melting temperature of the alloyed metallic particles.
