The
Lead-Free Solder Project
The purpose of the Lead-free Solder Project (LFSP) is to
objectively assess the environmental life-cycle impacts of selected lead-free
solders as alternatives to tin-lead solder. The DfE LFSP analysis also intends
to provide an assessment of recyclability and leachability of the solders, as
well as a baseline life-cycle assessment (LCA) of the tin-lead and lead-free
alternative solders.

IPC’s
Lead Free Website
While all available scientific evidence indicates that the
lead used in printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing and electronic assembly
produces no significant environmental or health hazards, IPC believes the
pressure to eliminate lead in electronic interconnections will continue in the
future from both the legislative and competitive sides.
