JonatasMonte, pyrite disease doesn’t spread like mold like the tin problem does. It’s a self perpetuating chemical reaction that causes the mineral pyrite, and more commonly marcasite, to disintegrate into a pile of acidic yellow or white dust. It can spread to other specimens, too. If you know anyone who’s into rocks and minerals, they should always give pyrite and marcasite specimens a sniff test before buying. If they smell sulfur, don’t buy it! It’s practically impossible to stop once it’s started.

First, you must determine the how, then you can ask whether or not "why" is even applicable. If there is no creator, then the question of "why" we are here is meaningless, and the question reverts to simply "how" we got here, not why. As to the "imperatives," or what I assume to be moral behaviours and obligations, you don't need religion for that.

Lead-free Is horrible stuff that breaks down more easily than traditional tin lead solder, especially with repeated application of heat, so that the connections on the circuit board degrade very quickly if exposed to heat from a hot running power supply resistor or voltage regulator or large transistor. Had we stuck to using ordinary tin lead solder on electronical devices and circuit boards we would have fewer items failing prematurely and ending up in landfill. By the way, the Scott expedition to the South Pole that ended in disaster was partly undone by the use of nearly pure tin solder to seal canisters of fuel. The solder degraded from the extreme cold and all the fuel leaked out, and so the expedition team could not keep themselves warm or melt ice to make drinking water.

0:32 First, thank you for being diligent enough to provide sources. However, I can't find in any of these articles any reference in the include sources to churches assuming tin plague was the "work of the devil." After searching around, I found several sites that casually use this phrase without feeling the need to source a reference. However, what little I could find on medieval tin pipe organs, it seems that what was a higher concern was where the tin was sources (high quality "Cornwell Tin" vs. cheaper "German Tin" ). It seems that some organ builders would charge for using the more expensive Cornwell Tin but instead use the lowest quality German Tin and then pocket the money. So, in this case, I would agree that the eventual pipes failure would be caused by the root of all evil: the love of money ... or as you put it "the work of the devil."
@Steff2929again4 жыл бұрын
Pure tin is never used in pipe organs nowadays. The the most common alloys are plain tin (75% tin, 25 % lead), used for bright clear sounds and for visible facade pipes, spotted metal (50% tin, 50 % lead), for most general purposes, common metal (30 % tin, 70%, lead) when a smoother warm sound is desired, and (rarely) Lead (94% lead, 6% antimony) for stopped pipes with a smooth sound. Sometimes copper and zinc is used. Copper works fine, zinc is quite useless but cheap. A lot of pipes are also made of wood, especially the really big ones. Organ building is a craft where science walk hand in hand with art.

Without that fuel, the team was unable to keep themselves warm or melt snow and ice to make drinking water.

Not exactly, tin-whiskers can form at temperatures above 0, it's a different process, don't know the details. However it is not "really old" solders where they form a problem. When lead in solder was banned in the early 2000s, the industry was not ready. The solders they initially switched to turned out to grow whiskers. In combination with the really small distance between the connections on modern components the whiskers caused al kinds of short-circuit mayhem. As a result the use of leaded solder was again allowed in quite a few applications, (auto-motive, medical, ...) well for a while that is. It took more than a year before a usable alternative solder was found.

Plus, the organic fluxes used as part of the core of lead free solder are toxic, they burn your throat if you inhale them, and they will corrode the circuit board at some later point in time if you don't remove all traces of it.

I'd prefer to offer constructive criticism in a comment - usually in a polite, considered manner, but if I think that the content provider is 'taking the piss' , with clickbait or lazy, repetitive content I've been known to be a bit more direct.

Actually it does NOT matter if organ pipes are of tin, lead or whatever material if they are stiff enough not to be set into vibration by the air inside of them - and clearly, a metal pipe wall has to be pretty thin to be set into motion by air. Yet pipes with such thin walls were built, especially in the pre - industrial era when metal was very expensive. Note: the energy setting the walls into vibration comes from the vibrating air, hence energy is subtracted from the sound. Wall vibration acts a bit like a trumpet mute, coloring the sound by attenuating its energy. Thin lead pipes soak up energy from all parts of the audible frequency range, but tin takes energy from the bass range and leaves the high frequency components of the sound unaffected. That's why thin tin pipe walls yield a brighter sound - but the walls must be thin or this effect doesn't happen. Also, the idea that alloying lead or antimony with tin prevents tin pest has been challenged in experiments done by the organ builders Eckert and Laukhuff (Organ builders are about the only people doing scientific experiments on tin and lead alloys these days since almost no one else uses them for anything). Eckert's work, and Laukhuff's as well, was reported by the International Society of Organbuilders. That's all I remember.

Hi, I'm an organ builder. Older organ pipes typically do contain a lot more lead than modern pipes. A lot of people tried recreating those old organs and their distinctive charm by going back to making pipes with a higher amount of lead. They soon found out that after a couple of years, the pipes had started to collapse. The problem was that modern lead was 'too pure'. Back in the day there were a lot of impurities in the lead, making it more stable. When you work with older pipes you sometimes have to be really careful when handling them. They're so soft that it feels like the pipe is already bending just by you looking at it

This is also a big reason why lead free solder for electronics is such a BAD idea. Tin based solder also forms tin whiskers over time too that can over time short out connections. The first satellites were assembled with "high temp" solder (essentially pure tin) and they thermal cycling between day and night caused the whiskers to grow very quickly leading to early failure. Also the higher melting point made making good connections more difficult and lead to more thermal damage to solid state electronics. That is why most solder was a 60/40 (or 63/37) tin/lead alloy going forward.

Would grey tin turn back to white tin when the temperature goes up again?
