We've been running Kyzen XJN+ with our new Westek Trek IV cleaner for months and have had few problems with ionic contamination. Prior to that we've used Kyzen products forever. Recently a Zestron rep did a sales pitch claiming a 50% savings if we

There are chemistries out there that will solublize some post-solder NC flux residues. I have had success with Zestron material Vigon A200 and Petroferm material Hydrex DX. Go to http://www.zestron.com and http://www.petroferm.com These are chemical

well i do not know if u fixed this problem already. But i cand share form my experience some info with u. We used a vigon A200 solution for such an application. the cleaner is good. But...it gives u troubles depending on the quantity of flux. It can

I had send my coating board to the test lab for adhesion coating test. 3 times send, the result 3times fail. The coating chemical use is Humiseal 1B31. The process is clean the boards at washing process use the Vigon A200 saponifier mix with DI wate

I have experience cleaning NC for military boards. The reason for cleaning the NC is due to conformal coating requirements. Zestron Vigon A200 and Atron AC 100, as well as Petroferm Hydrex DX have both been effective at cleaning Alpha UP78 NC paste.

Armakleen is compatible with CPVC as are most aqueous-based chemistries. Armakleen, in its day was a superior chemistry. It was the first of the aqueous blends to offer bright solder joints (earlier saponifiers commonly dulled solder joints). Arma

Grant, No-Clean paste + IPA = White Residue! #1: Stop using IPA #2: Switch to either a solvent-based de-fluxing chemical or an aqueous-based de-fluxing chemical. If you are using an ultrasonic cleaner for your boards as stated, do not use sapon

In all likelihood, you may not be leaving flux on the board rather you may be leaving saponifier on the board. Improper rinsing is a leading cause of cleaning related board failures. The problem with some inline cleaning systems (especially old o
