  • Patent number: 10105794
    Abstract: A method of forming a solder composition comprises mixing indium, nickel, copper, silver, antimony, zinc, and tin together to form an alloy that consists of about 4% to about 25% by weight tin, about 0.1% to about 8% by weight antimony, about 0.03% to about 4% by weight copper. about 0.03% to about 4% by weight nickel, about 0.03% to about 1.5% by weight zinc, about 66% to about 90% by weight indium, and about 0.5% to about 9% by weight silver. The solder composition formed by this method can be used to solder an electrical connector to an electrical contact surface on a glass component.
