    So, today I want to tell you about such a metal as tin.
    In the periodic table of chemical elements, tin is in the 14th group among the so-called base metals.

      The Guardian of Truth - actually there are possibly thousands of "achievable" elements through scientific experimentations and different nuclear fusion technologies... so you shouldn't really say it that way... rather say it like: "almost a quarter of the current publicly known elements on our periodic table have no known stable isotopes" Although recently we have been looking for ways to create "element 0" which has no protons but is instead made of neutrons and those types of creations could possibly help create stable isotopes of currently unstable artificially created elements... who knows what we could make :)

    Actually, the most important use of tin is for making float sheet glass. Almost every window now made was created by floating a layer of molten glass on a pool of molten tin. When the glass cools, the sheets are then cut into manageable sizes and sent to window makers and glaziers.

      @theLuigiFan0007Productions Před 7 lety +38

      @Laharl Krichevskoy It definitely has, and that's why medical, military and aerospace electronics are almost completely RoHS exempt. It's either leaded solder or special alloy solders containing indium (not cheap) in environments absolutely requiring high reliability (aka failure is NOT an option). One would not want shorts in a plane's main control systems or in a device potentially keeping someone alive at a hospital. Manufacturers have VERY high liability in those fields.

    • @headbanger1428
      @headbanger1428 Před 7 lety +32

      RoHS is a disguise for the electronics industry mafia. The amount of perfectly hackable or extractable hardware going into landfills made good business sense for them to come up with a scam to self destruct their goods. I know no all the semiconductors will die in a short or many shorts, but it will end the life of that consumer PoS! We all lose with RoHS. Tell your friends, and punch your politicians.

    • @theLuigiFan0007Productions
      @theLuigiFan0007Productions Před 7 lety +44

      Yeah I personally have a STRONG disliking for the RoHS to say the least. Out of the substances they're trying to ban, I'm all in phasing out PCBs and PBBs, as they're incredibly toxic and carcinogenic and environmentally persistent. They're just plain evil and better, safer and cheaper alternatives are available. For transformers, mineral oil, vegetable oil and/or bromated vegetable oil (yes, BVO is still a bit evil, but not super evil). Pthalates are very good at making adhesives and plastics, I have some glue that contains dibutyl pthalate and MEK, and it's honestly the most useful stuff ever. Waterproof even before it's completely dried, cheap, and very strong. Some glues are actually banned in California because of those two ingredients, luckily I don't live there. I'm also against banning lead, mercury, cadmium and hexavalent chromium because they do have their places. I'l start with hexavalent chromium: It's absolutely necessary to prepare surfaces for electroplating if you don't want the coating peeling off. Need I say more? Oh, not enough, eh? Well, I'l tell you that it's the first step in purifying ores of chromium, so without it, no more shiny corrosion resistant coatings. Also, since you banned cadmium, chromium has to replace it in some uses. What about mercury? Surely it's just a liquid of pure evil, right? Wrong. The best analog temperature and pressure measurement devices need some of the silver liquid to make them work, as well as super accurate levels and analog blood pressure meters. Fluorescent tubes and some neon tubes? Mercury. Good quality mechanical, silent or tilt switches? Mercury. Mercury switches can also handle a really decent amount of current for their size, because the contact is essentially a liquid, and they last VERY long. They even used to make "silent switch" light switches that had little vials of mercury in them. Need a weight or pendulum that has a properties of a liquid, but weighs more then steel? I think you know what to do. Fill it with the silver stuff! Cadmium? Well, there are still uses that need Ni-Cad batteries, although Ni-MH and Li-Ion are a much better replacements in most cases, you still need them now and then. Corrosion resistant steel parts? Cadmium plated. CdS light sensors? Well, cadmium is in the name. Unleaded pipe solder? Quite a bit of it contains cadmium. Bright red and yellow pigment based paints for art and ceramics? Cadmium oxides are used here. What about lead? Solder. Small size weights for use as counterweights. Radiation shielding. Lead acid batteries. Infra-red detectors? Lead. True bronze? Lead. Bullets and shot, of course, are usually lead. High voltage insulation contains lead to prevent water from absorbing into the PVC. Golden/goldenrod colored ceramic? Lead oxide glaze. Construction? Lead still has a few not so easily replaced uses as a fairly corrosion resistant, and cheap, sheet metal in roofing. Bearings? Lead copper alloys last longer and provide better lubrication properties. All that and I didn't even get into organic chemistry yet. I thing anyone could see the point. There are some uses where the cheapest, most effective, or best solution is going to be a "hazardous substance". The RoHS is doing more harm then good. And to be honest, I should stock up on leaded solder while I can, incase things get worse.
      Sorry for going on a rant, but, man I needed to say that.

    • @therealjammit
      @therealjammit Před 7 lety +16

      Lead free electronics specifically means they don't use a solder that contains lead. "Normal" solder contains tin and lead together. The lead not only changes the temperature the tin and lead melt at, it also prevents the tin from forming whiskers. Lead free solder replaces the lead (and keeps the tin) with something else (tin and silver solder is an example). This does work except the temperature both melt at is higher than tin/lead solder, the remaining tin/silver joint is harder and less flexible. This causes the silver/tin solder to crack more easily and the extra heat can weaken electronic components.

    • @theLuigiFan0007Productions
      @theLuigiFan0007Productions Před 7 lety +1

      @Ollyweg 0 Yeah I understand. I guess I was thinking of ceramic for decorative purposes, not plates and other containers used for food. The cadmium plated steel parts are used in aircraft, they specifically use cadmium instead of zinc in lots of cases. I don't know exactly why though. Zinc is surely cheaper then cadmium, so there must be another reason. Like you said, if it's properly used and disposed of, it dosen't pose any significant risk.

      Dominic Bristow America has a very wide range of accents across the country and most high population areas have a high Spanish speaking minority, while not most, many Americans near the southern border even learn to speak Spanish while not having any ties to Mexican or other Hispanic ancestry. You claim Americans are ignorant idiots with your comment while actually being one yourself. The only Americans who complain about accents are the ones who never left their state or local region which is a minority of all Americans. Taking it a step further, if you live in a city or near one you have probably heard over a dozen foreign languages and the accents of those people while speaking english. If we couldn't understand a person with an Indian, Mexican, Russian or any other accent life would be very hard in such areas considering many shops and gas stations are owned by foreigners which you have to constantly interact with to make any sort of purchases.

    Tin changing its allotrope into the brittle form can also be prevented by adding other metals to it (like copper). And the tin-hair surface growth crystallization (so-called "Whiskering") has been found to be a sign of compressive stress (also by thermal stress, electrostatic stress on highvoltage devices, where electric fields induce the relocation of metal atoms along field lines e.g. the same way as such apparatuses are known to attract huge amounts of dust over time). Which does occur in electric devices. The ROHS production era is in fact a problem - to be worked around - because traditionally lead being added to solder is well preventing it. The addition of elements like copper and nickel is what is applied today. Another type of prevention is laquering (surface sealing) of completed circuitboards.

  • @jeffreyyoung4104
    @jeffreyyoung4104 Před 3 lety +1

    The use of tin in tin/lead solder also has tin breakdown after time as well.
    By buying quality solder, you can avoid problems. Using cheap solder products doesn't save you money in the long run.

    Tin was one of the more important reasons why people were traveling and have commerce during the prehistoric period.
    Bronze is made from copper and tin. Weapons from Bronze alloy are superior to weapons from copper. That gave an immense advantage to the people who could have both tin and copper.
    Copper is relatively abundant but Copper and tin are not found on high concentrations together in earth. So prehistoric people had to travel in order to conquer or have commerce with areas rich with tin. That period is very important for the history of humanity and is named Bronze Era.
    Also many confuse bronze with brass. The massive use of brass started around 500BC much later than bronze 3,500 BC and is made from copper and zinc. Brass is harder and more resistant to corrosion than bronze.

Also if tin can be broken down like that could you imagine replicating that chemical process for other metals for a weapon? Talk about affective. In theory if done correctly you could wipe out your enemies hardware in a single shot while leaving the people safe and intact. Game changer for sure.

    For those into electronics, look up 'tin whiskers':
    "Tin whiskers are electrically conductive, crystalline structures of tin that sometimes grow from surfaces where tin (especially electroplated tin) is used as a final finish. Tin whiskers have been observed to grow to lengths of several millimeters (mm) and in rare instances to lengths in excess of 10 mm. Numerous electronic system failures have been attributed to short circuits caused by tin whiskers that bridge closely-spaced circuit elements maintained at different electrical potentials.
    Tin whiskers are not a new phenomenon. Indeed, the first published reports of tin whiskers date back to the 1940s and 1950s. Tin is only one of several metals that is known to be capable of growing whiskers."

    Tin was so important in the Bronze age, that a major shortage of it played as big a role in the collapse of the great Bronze age civilizations as the slow introduction of Iron. Iron weapons trickled in, but when the large supplies of Tin, from mines in the area now known as Afghanistan, was interrupted due to conflict around the Indus region, the Major civilizations of Egypt, Hattusa and Greece were tremendously impacted, because they relied on Bronze for their military might, and much of their culture.

Let the tin whiskers grow from a variety of insulated wires' exposed tips, in a sealed container of your solution, such that low currents in various patterns between them form a natural 'neural network' - Hebbian learning is identical to the process of tin whisker formation, so any arrangement of input and output contacts will eventually be 'learned' if you give it enough examples.
