On your question about reliability ... " Is there testing we can do (environmental stress chambers) with which we can see the long-term effects of flux residue on solder joints?" Sure, incompletely activated low residue flux residues are potentially

We're currently using no-clean flux (SR-12) in a no-clean manual soldering process. The brownish flux residue impedes direct visual inspection of the solder joints. Therefore, we're forced to clean the residue off. (1) Is there testing we can do
