Hello SMTnetters We have a unique application requiring cleaning of an aggressive OA flux. A vapor degreasing process or the immersion of the parts in boiling solvents has some process advantages over an ultrasonic aqueous process. These advantages

Resistivity Of Solvent Extract [ROSE] is a bulk ion contamination [BIC] test method. It should thought of as a process control tool used to assess ionic contaminants. Don't consider it an acceptable tool for establishing 'GO-NOGO' limits. The stan

| I get white residue on my PCBs after vapor degreasing. No comments on the vapor degreaser. Yes, I still use one of these. I use a vapor degreaser and a 1,1,1 replacement solvent due to the quick clean and quick dry times. Anyway, I only get whi

WE ARE CURRENTLY LOOKING INTO REVIVING OUR VAPOUR DEGREASING PROCESS, BEFORE WE DO, DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY NO HOW OR KNOWLEDGE AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THERE ARE SUITABLE ALTERNATIVES TO USING TRICHLORETHANE AND ARKLONE ETC? THANK YOU SAM

We are looking at reviving our vapour degreasing process. But before we do, does anyone have any suitable knowledge of vapour degresing solvents as an alternative to Tricholorethane and Arklone etc ? Any feedback regarding this process would be muc

arent there environmentally friendly solvents (i have seen some from 3M) that can be used in a vapor degreaser. i was also planning to use the vapor degreaser to clean boards prior to conformal coating

That's great Paul. Would you share with us the methods and results of your study of the effectiveness of water versus vapor degreasing cleaning?
