Silver Prices Soaring and Costs Rising?
Meet Joinspire’s Sintered Copper Paste: The New Cost-Breaking Solution for High-Power Semiconductor Packaging!
Recently, international silver prices have surged past $67 per ounce, marking an increase of nearly 130%. This wave of price hikes has rapidly rippled through the global manufacturing supply chain. The impact is particularly severe in the high-power semiconductor packaging sector—especially for "heavy silver users" like Photovoltaics (PV), New Energy Vehicles (NEVs), and Chip Packaging.
Sintered silver paste is a critical consumable in semiconductor packaging. As silver prices climb, the cost of these materials has skyrocketed. For manufacturers, this intensifying cost pressure has become an urgent challenge that demands an immediate solution.
The Key to Breaking the Cost Barrier: Sintered Copper
A Premium Alternative for High-Power Packaging
Copper sintering technology—offering comparable performance with controllable costs—is emerging as the perfect alternative to sintered silver.
Comparable Performance: It boasts electrical and thermal conductivity close to that of silver.
High Reliability: It offers excellent oxidation resistance and long-term reliability, fully meeting the stringent requirements of automotive-grade and industrial-grade applications.
The Cost Advantage: Most importantly, copper offers a significant and stable cost benefit.
With silver prices remaining high and volatile, adopting copper sintering technology is undeniably the smarter choice for cost reduction and efficiency in high-power semiconductor packaging.
Staying Ahead of the Curve
