Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain solder powder which is spherical and has consistent and excellent characteristics by using an inert gaseous atmosphere having a specific oxygen concn. and temp. for a compressed gas and the inside of a recovering vessel. CONSTITUTION:Molten solder (n) is stored in a molten metal crucible 1a of a storage tank 1 and flows out of the crucible by passing a molten metal nozzle 1b. The molten solder is pulverized and splashed by the compressed gas S ejected from a gas nozzle 2a of a sprayer 2 into the recovering vessel 3 to form the solder powder (m). Gaseous argon, nitrogen, CO2, etc., having <=8% oxygen concn. and <=30% humidity are used for the compressed gas S. Said gas is heated by a heating wire 7 in a supply pipe 6. The recovering vessel 3 has excellent airtightness and the inside thereof is maintained at and under <=8% oxygen concn. and <=30% humidity.
