5. Flow Soldering
When sudden heat is applied to the components, the
mechanical strength of the components should go down
because remarkable temperature change causes
deformity inside components. And an excessively long
soldering time or high soldering temperature results in
leaching of the outer electrodes, causing poor adhesion
or a reduction in capacitance value due to loss of contact
between electrodes and end termination.

Preheating
In order to prevent mechanical damage in the
components, preheating shoud be required for the both
components and the PCB board. Preheating conditions
are shown inTable 2. It is required to keep temperature
differential between the soldering and the components
surface ($T) as small as possible.
When components are immersed in solvent after
mounting, be sure to maintain the temperature difference
between the component and solvent within the range
shown in Table 2.

Optimum Solder Amount for Flow Soldering
The top of the solder fillet should be lower than the
thickness of components. If the solder amount is
excessively big, the risk of cracking is higher during
board bending or under any other stressful conditions.
