Key to Rosin Fluxes [from SUPERIOR FLUX & MFG. CO.] Type R (Rosin): Non-activated rosin flux for soldering copper. Residues are non-corrosive and non-conductive. Type RMA (Rosin Mildly Activated): Mildly activated rosin flux that contains no chlori

OK, lemme take a different angle on this, �cuz I forgot to touch on this when I first responded. I mentioned a study ["Evaluation of Low Residue Soldering for Military and Commercial Applications: A Report from the Low-Residue Soldering Task Force"

Interesting...the very reason we use water soluble paste on some of our boards is for that reason, although I've never been able to get anyone to show me something in print that supports it. It's just what engineering has told me. We currently have

Deja vu! When I read your response I turned around to see if you standing behind me listening to our problem. We currently make about 50 different boards all using no-clean that have no problems, yet this newest boards has a couple of issues that eng

Currently, in my working factory, we facing the flux residue remain on connector after washing. (of course, this is clean process with WS solder paste). So, are there any ways to clean the flux residue rather than go back to wash again? Because wash

We have seen this problem in the past and had to deal with similar customer constraints. It's not the flux causing the wetting, but the placement and pad geometries as some have mentioned. To reduce or eliminate the problem, we have changed the ape
