Accordingly, it is possible to prevent oxide from being formed on the surfaces of the solder particles and to enhance the solder wettability at the time of soldering. In addition, it is possible to secure printability onto fine electrodes and to secure excellent solder adhesion with respect to a fine-pitch part by the use of a simple and low-cost method.
