The residues are from the flux, not adhesive. Do you have flux management system in oven? You also need to check the flux type = can you use low solids. The effect is the same as steam in bathroom - it is cooling affects in exhaust and flux reforming

I'm not found this problem with adhesive but found in NC flux , Then you should get some residue and analyse it by SEM and EDX for specify the actual source ( flux or adhesive ? ) , if it 's from adhesive , sometime your supplier must join this pro

I hated no-clean for that reason. Yea, the boards are pretty clean and in many cases don't need cleaning but it's not worth it when you consider what it does to your ovens in my opinion. Do water soluable fluxes cause the same havoc in a re-flow?

Thanks for the replys'. So are you saying that SMD adhesive contains a flux agent?, because at this point in the process the boards have no solder on them at all, it's all done at a solder bath after the chips have been bonded.

Is your exhaust duct connected to a reflow oven that is used for flux? The condensate may be carring over from another oven that shares the same duct.

We don�t use this glue. What does Heraeus say about your condensate? [I'm With the previous poster. Your condensate sounds like goop from NC flux not glue.] How to clean out a 3 meter length of chimney? Depends on your tolerance for pain * Take

No. Since most glues don't don't give-up many solids, we're [at least I am] speculating that you are using the same oven for both reflow and glue cure and that the 'slime oozin' out from your TV set' [FZ 'Overnight Sensation']. Ooops, no the slime

I agree with analysis. You'll never accurately find the source until you determine exactly what the "goo" is. We have this problem, but like previous posters, the goo is flux residue. We do use the ovens for both reflow and adhesive cure. The adh

In addition to Dave�s response: RO fluxes are based on natural pine (tree) rosin. RE fluxes are based on synthetic or modified rosins called resin. Below a couple of advantages resin can have compared to rosin: � Better thermal stability. � Resin

Where to find detailed information on fluxes? No one seems to know the real difference between Rosin fluxes with colophan, Resin fluxes or synthetic Resin fluxes, No Clean, Low Residues, VOC-Free, Halide-Free, Water Washable with alcohol base, Resin-
