Dave, I would only agree with you when you talk about low residue (water based) fluxes. In low residue (alcohol based) fluxes you can use non water soluble acids, so in the event you still have flux residues on the board water has no effect on them.

Hi, sounds unusual if your profile is accurate that you have so many residues. Had a similar problem before with no clean flux and with various flux manufacturers, and all residues were down to excess flux. This does not help your case though. How a

No-clean flux residues can be either cleanable or not cleanable. The not cleanable type leave a milky white residue on the solder connection after suitable soaking in water. Your flux supplier will have suggestions on the appropriate flux.

It's possible that the flux residues from the solder paste used in your SMT process is not compatible with your water wash process. For instance, some no-clean fluxes leave resudues that are not water washable. When these residues are washed, they de

The design engineers I work with are blaming some circuit problems on what they think might be related to the no-clean flux residue. (It couldn't be the design.) Has any body else seen noise issues in high speed circuits related to no-clean flux resi

We are using OSP coated boards and no-clean solder paste. In a few instances, we are seeing increased distortion in an audio circuit. Has anybody seen or heard of surface insulation resistance (SIR) decreasing after reflow on OSP boards? Is it possib

Hey guys, Anybody having trouble with increased false contact issues in ICT after switching from lead to lead free? Our test guys keep trying to imply that the flux residues are a problem (we're using Alpha EF2202), but as the soldering process eng

It's hard to say since cleanliness on my product may be acceptable, but may fail on yours. If you really are worried about flux residues, or need to pass some cleanliness spec, you may want to look into water soluable. Otherwise, most of the name b
