Graham: Maybe a twist on your comments, I don't believe that people understand the true cost of using no-clean. Dave

Your supplier�s approach to managing process change is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!!!! Now, let me get the froth back in my mouth. How in the world do we know if the residues on these "no-clean" boards are compatible with your product? J-STD-001C, para 4

I have a thru-hole PCB that malfunctions when "no clean" flux is left on certain parts of the board. I have specified "the PCB shall have no flux residue". Our state side vendors (we have one offshore -they still use freon to clean) are complaining t

Hi, I curently have an interesting challenge. But I don't have all the knowledge to solve it. One of our boards is used in RF applications. We noticed that the No-Clean flux residue makes interferences in the RF signal. Removing the flux residue so

New pcba supplier sent us first article pcbas (SMT, Wave & hand solder operations) that failed our testing due to no-clean flux residues found under ICs and around passive capacitors. Second lot came in and had 100% pass yield, but we still see a cl

saturation occurs at ppm levels. Remember, IPA is extremely flammable and its bulk use makes the plant liable to all sorts of quite repressive safety rules/regulations and so on. Ignoring these rules exposes the owner to fines and possible plant cl

What flux are you using? We use a low-solids No-Clean water-based flux. Maybe some of what you are seeing is not residue from the flux but is from reaction with the solder mask.

Brian: SMTnet has a "Terms & Definitions" section in the "Library." OA Flux. Flux, Organic Acid. A water soluble flux. Good luck Dave F

im running some tests at the moment for hand soldering using a no residue water based flux from MBO, called WBF-01. leaves a good clean finish.

Graham, Please describe the term OA? I have never heard of that acronym. Thanks, Brian E. Steelglove
