Davef is right on as usual. We are doing exactly what you do. Some smt with no clean paste then the plate through connectors on our selective solder machine using water soluble flux. We then clean with a ultrasonic water process. We do see the re

Hi Peter, I posted these links to Technet as well, but figured I would add them here as well in case any of the smtnet readers would like to see them. Here are some links to some articles about white residue sources, and whether or not white residue

Casimir: Let me expand on something that I said in my response to your thread on ionic testing. Generally, no-clean people don�t use ROSE testing as part of their process control, because the ROSE test is essentially washing your board in DI/IPA �

Peter: Questions are: * From your pictures, the white residue appears to be only on the solder mask. Is that correct? If not, what is the location [eg, solder, nonsolder/nonmask areas] of the residue that doesn't show well in the pictures? Further,

Hi, I know this is a total screwed-up. Operator used the wrong paste. It was supposed to be a clean paste but she was issued with no clean paste. What happen was when the brd processed thru', after the reflow, the girl passed the boards thru' DI wa

Probably 2) what is this white residue material (chemically )? => Natural or synthetic rosin 3) Can Saponifier wash, helps? If not what is the best solution to remedy this white residue. => Probably a saponifier will work. Some NC flux residues

No clean pastes leave more flux residues. These can result in void formation and inhibtion of underfill curing. Selection of an underfill that is compatible with the flux residue is important. One company that has written about the effect of flux

Hello, I have a question on white residues formation at wave soldering. We have recently run experiments to test the performance of various halide-free water soluble fluxes (ORH0 under JSTD-004). The flux was applied through a spray fluxer and all P

Where could I find more information regarding the double sided reflow and flux problems with white tin?
