Lead-free solder alloys that melt lower than the tin-silver-copper alloys are composed of tin or tin alloys with the addition of bismuth, indium, or zinc, and all have advantages and disadvantages. Bismuth alloys can contain a small amount or a large amount of bismuth. Generally, solder alloys with more than about 8% bismuth will be brittle.
