Abstract
Provided is a solder material test method that reduces labor and time and is preferred in operation hygiene. Detected are a first intensity at a particular wave number of infrared radiation reflected from a test-sample solder material by illuminating light to the test-sample solder material and a second intensity at the particular wave number of infrared radiation reflected from a comparative-sample solder material by illuminating light to the comparative-sample solder material. Depending upon the first and second intensities detected, intensity differences and ratios are determined. Those may be absorbance differences or intensities of between an infrared radiation absorbance to test-sample solder material and an infrared radiation absorbance to comparative-sample solder material. From the intensity difference, intensity ratio, absorbance difference and absorbance ratio, the test-sample solder material is tested for deterioration degree relatively to the comparative sample.
