Santorini lies on a CONVERGENT boundary
and therefore has felsic lava
Santorini volcano was formed by the conversion of the African plate and the Aegean Sea Plate. As subduction occurred, some magma burned to the surface and create volcanic islands called island arcs. Santorini is one of those volcanic islands.
Santorini is on the Eurasian Plate near where the African Plate subducts beneath it.
The Falcon Volcano on the Tonga Islands are in the Indo-Australian Plate- a convergent boundary.

The cotopaxi volcano sits on the pacific plate.

Eyjafjallajokull volcano is located on the divergent boundary between the North American Plate and the Eurasian Plate in Iceland.
The Volcano Villarica is on a converging plate boundary.

I think the plate boundary is in the subduction zone.
Yes, Santorini is a shield volcano.
The Turrialba Volcano is located on a convergent plate boundary where the Cocos Plate is subducting beneath the Caribbean Plate. This subduction process is responsible for the volcanic activity in the region.
Santorini volcano has also and mafic rocks.
