Alpha

MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions, an Element Solutions Inc. business, has been the global leader in electronic assembly materials since its founding in 1872 as a metals smelter and refiner. Today, the company delivers innovative soldering and protection solutions through its ALPHA, Kester, and Electrolube brands, supported by 160+ locations worldwide and the industry's largest R&D capability. The ALPHA solder paste portfolio addresses critical assembly challenges including miniaturization, electrochemical reliability, and high-throughput manufacturing—featuring no-clean, water-soluble, and zero-halogen formulations for both lead-free and tin-lead processes. Products include the OM-362 high-reliability paste, OM-5100 ultra-low voiding paste, and OM-565 HRL3 low-temperature paste enabling 175°C peak reflow for warpage-sensitive assemblies. Flux-cored solder wires manufactured to ISO 12224-1 specifications support hand soldering, robotic soldering, drag soldering, and laser soldering with no-clean, water-soluble, and activated rosin flux options. Wave soldering materials include high-purity solder bar and liquid fluxes engineered for maximum hole-fill and joint reliability. The Electrolube brand provides conformal coatings meeting defense standards, thermally conductive potting compounds up to 4.0 W/m·K, and contact lubricants for circuit board protection in automotive, aerospace, EV battery, and harsh environment applications. All products are RoHS and REACH compliant with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications.
