I agree with Dave on the Water soluble process for this part. It is interesting that I have yet to find a Water Soluble for lead free that works. I have experienced a lot of problems with the flux on these pastes, wetting, solder balls, etc... kind

Steve, Water-soluble fluxes are per definition very corrosive and need to be cleaned (read the data sheet) Encapsulation will prevent humidity reaching the water-soluble acids but will not prevent reducing the metals the flux is in contact with to m

Are you using a water soluble paste? Older generations of water soluble paste are notorious for voiding. Some of the new generation water soluble fluxes allow a much wider process window.

Hello! I need some help! Does anyone know marking pen that is water soluble? I want to wash off marker in a cleaning machine using only hot water. I tried many different type of water soluble marking pen, but it did not come off easily.

Hi Dave, Water soluble flux has two opposite attributes. #1: It is the easiest flux to remove. #2: It is the worst flux to leave behind on a board. As for # 1, there are many de-fluxing systems out there that are very capable of removing water

Awww Stevo, just chill. I think of NC as the process engineers' full employment material. Water solubles are for wimps!!! Har har har

Is it possible to have a no-clean flux that could be removed with water. I would like to use a single flux at wave solder that could satisfy both no-clean and water soluble customers, within a contract manufacturing environment. Thanks, Tim A.

There is a company in Florida that was using water soluble solder mask with their wash system. The gentleman to call there is Lynn Hurt, their Sr. Staff Engineer. Switchboard number is 352-799-6520. Brian

YAAAAAAAAAA! You guys from Chemtronics are saying that hand cleaning water soluble flux residues are okay? YAAAAAAAA! that's complete MADNESS! Please clarify! -Steve Gregory-
