Hi Dave, It may be. DI water alone will not build up residue. It can attack the finish of electro-polished (mirrored) stainless steel though. I have seen a white / chalky buildup on poly inline cleaners, usually isolated in the wash section. The

Hi, That is very common in WS pastes.It is white residue (Salt) Usually it�s not dangerous it only looking bad. I think best way would be contact your paste supplier and they should know what would take a stain off if not, change supplier. There i

MadReindeer If this white residue is salt, * Why do you say is the presence of it 'not dangerous it only looking bad'? Don't salts sometimes go into solution with moisture on the board from humidity in the air and form cathodic plating shorts betw

I've never run D.I. water through an ultrasonic humidifier before. I think the reverse osmosis (RO) process removes more stuff (minerals and etc.) than the D.I. process does. My experience from using one in a home setting still tells me that is the

If you are going for high margin business then you may want to ditch the blue smurf coats & go for white - they are a bugger to keep clean but look like you have a dedicated team of scientists. (Giving people clipboards & safey glasses helps complet

The pictures show you what I'm seeing and the settings. There aren't flat metal surfaces. There is a lead and a fillet there. So its shown as black, not white. We are using the red and the histogram.

Thanks for the link. Their is a white silkscreen underneath the BGA instead of a green soldermask. Attached is a picture of the BGA. Does these affect the solderability for the component.

Vinesh: You�ll find no papers that "clearly describes the harmful effects" of your style "of white residues," because no one is crazy enough to brag that they are doing what your customer wants you to do. The residue of no-clean fluxes are designe

One thing I've found that will create that white residue is when moisture comes in contact with that flux. 1. Verify that you are not introducing any moisture with the compressed air supply at the foam fluxer. 2. Replace the flux and clean the flu

White residue, probably nothing to do with the flux but was more than likely mineral salts from resist cure problem that are only soluble in Mineral Acids. No residue is the best IF resist is good, if resist issue's use low solids Rosin No Clean and
