Ideally first you need to analyze the residue to see what it is. We had a customer with white residues after wave and elemental analysis revealed tin.

We use a NC Flux in the wave solder and after aAcelerated Life Test cicle we found contamination white residues paths between some solder points. Does somebody know a possible cause for this contamination.

Peter: Questions are: * From your pictures, the white residue appears to be only on the solder mask. Is that correct? If not, what is the location [eg, solder, nonsolder/nonmask areas] of the residue that doesn't show well in the pictures? Further,

Hi, I know this is a total screwed-up. Operator used the wrong paste. It was supposed to be a clean paste but she was issued with no clean paste. What happen was when the brd processed thru', after the reflow, the girl passed the boards thru' DI wa

Hello, I have a question on white residues formation at wave soldering. We have recently run experiments to test the performance of various halide-free water soluble fluxes (ORH0 under JSTD-004). The flux was applied through a spray fluxer and all P

I had problems with white residues on both WS609 and WS 3060.The WS 3060 turned out to be a carbonized material.The composition after analysis (Energy Dispersive X-ray spectrum) turned out to be tin,tin,phosphore and cloline and tin. Alpha also have

Hi Mr. Necdet Ozyonum, Recently we did have same kind of problems when we use lead free reflow profile for leaded solder paste (AIM WS-483). There where solder resist lacks, we found white residue after aqueous cleaning. Not in the solder joints but

Dear All, I would like to take your opinion about the result that we have faced after cleaning the PC assemblies in a cleaning machine (Miele Dishwasher) with the cleaning detergent Qualitek Everkleen 1005. We use DI water for cleaning purpose in t

Hi All, I am facing a strange problem. One of my esteemed & valued customers has an unusual requirement of cleaning the board with IPA after soldering is complete. I am using alpha metals UP78 no clean sodler paste during reflow. This IPA cleanin
