Thank you for reply, Stephen. No, As I wrote it was leaded process. I heard that it is possible with lead free solder at higher temps an dwell time. At NPL Defect Database I've find this case wich looks exactly the same: http://defectsdatabase.npl.co

Similar to Jax's comment, concern yourself with the the activity level of the flux. A more active flux would be more aggressive in removing tarnish. Certainly, the choice depends on the type and amount of tarnish. Probably, you need to consider your

Nichrome, manganin, phosphor bronze etc are easy to solder ... the hard part is removing the corrosion * Manganin: 86% copper, 12% manganese, 2% nickel. Often, it's used in making cryogenic measurements, due to its low heat loss. * Select a flux for

Ramon: I guarantee you there is corrosion on the solderable surfaces of your board. The issues are: * Flux selected is capable of removing the corrosion at hand. * Processes for applying the flux and soldering the board are effective for the sele

Yano, at lot this discussion is kinda school boy theory. Other issues are: * Soldering time * Corrosion [did we say that already?] * Safety [ie, personnel, plant, environment] * Cost of ownership

Hi, I read an article that says "Flux selection usually depends on the following factors": a) Solderability of pcb base metal or coating b) Corrosivity of vapours and residues c) electrical resistivity of residues d) Ease of removal of residues e)

I hear Pillarhouse is the "Yugo" of Select soldering! :) Chunks et al is correct that if the innards of the fluxing system are made of non-corrosive mat'ls, you should be okay. I used to deal with the original AT&T Spray fluxers and their spray no

Quick production (no "pasty" phase) > High joint surface quality > Good flux action > No discolored, corrosive, or substantive residue of any kind > Lead-free is not a concern ;o) Any input/ideas are appreciated. Thanks!

Because it was recommended by the machine manufacturer. Sup 75 is also very corrosive. It basically ruins any tools that touch it if they aren't cleaned properly. I am ordering some of that powder to try.

Zinc from the brass diffuses into the solder and reacts with tin causing dezincification. Dezincification is a specific type of de-alloying, or selective, leaching corrosion of brass fittings. This type of corrosion selectively removes zinc from th
