I attached a RX picture. A lot of voids and micro balls arround the flux residue. What do you think, relow temperature reflow or OSP poor weeting.? I appreciate your comments. Thanks,

| We recently made the switch to no-clean and the wurface mount is turning out beautifully. However, the wave solder process continues to put up a fight; we are getting a white residue on the surface of the PCB. The residue is not localized to

Hi, is there a reason why washing "no-clean" flux residue off of boards with 1(or 2)-ethoxy-propanol is not a widespread practice? This chemical is more commonly known as Henkel/Loctite/Multicore SC01. I've long known, as I'm sure most people do, t

Process: Batch Cleaner, @16% concentration. Concentration is checked daily. Cleaning after Wave Process. See attached pictures and comment and what you think causes the solder joint to turn grey. i have read post that say the grey dull looking sol

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

Ionic cleanliness is pretty much meaningless, when discussing nc flux residues. If you do the good solder routine and measure the boards, you'll be in the out-house, because the water in your resistivity of solvent extract tester will turn the res o

Cleaning RMA with water is bad news. It will turn your solder connections white and remove none of the RMA residues. There was a thread on removing RMA within the past two weeks on SMTnet. Check the fine SMTnet Archives. Additionally, look at M

First, most �thermal shock� recipes are not a reliability test. There is no relationship between the failures seem in these tests and in-use application. These tests show you the failures in these tests. That�s it!!! Second, accelerated life test
