The presence of agitation at an air / solution interface and a foaming agent causes foaming. Most water soluble fluxes contain surficants. Surficants are foaming agents. First, it's likely this foaming is caused by poor control of the temperature of

I relate to your problem. We face this issue sometimes. It's mostly flux from SMT, TH process or rework boards. To avoid foam in our Washer, we soak the boards in hot water for 10-15 min before running it through the washer. Or you can spray the boar

Run a water-soluble mask that foams in the wash. Use a de-foamer to contol that. One or the other, or both are causing a greasy build-up that is hard to get off in certain areas. I have a closed loop DI water system. Can I use some sort of deterg

A surfactant (AKA detergent) is great for OA flux removal applications. It has a good surface tension reducing property and is more easily rinsed than soaps. If using a soap or surfactant, be sure that you choose one that has a good de-foaming pack

Although water soluble (OA) flux is technically the easiest flux to remove, it is also the most damaging type of flux if not removed. A dishwasher lacks the pressure and nozzle design to produce the very small water particle size required for thorou
