Methods for Choosing a Saponifier or Surfactant for Printed Circuit Board and Stencil Cleaning Applications

This paper will discuss the technical challenges associated with the selection of chemical additive for the printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) and stencil cleaning processes. The removal of .. read more

Ionic Analysis of Common Beverages Spilled on Electronics

Electronics,especially mobile electronic items,are subjected to unintentional abuse by having various beverages spilled onto or into them. Ion Chromatography and emission spectroscopy were used .. read more

Cleaning a No-Clean Flux on Contaminated Hardware as a Recovery Plan

There is a growing problem in the industry with no-clean flux technology and the after effects it can have on reliability. If the fluxes are not fully complexed (not fully heat activated) there .. read more

Describing Key Coating and Process Characteristics of a Pb-Free OSP Process

Organic Solderability Preservatives (OSP) continue to attract significant attention as circuit board final finishes. They have evolved from simple and thin benzotriazole coatings to thicker and .. read more
