AQUANOX® A4708 pH Neutral Electronic Assembly Cleaning Chemistry.

KYZEN received the 2015 NPI Award for excellence in the category of Cleaning Materials for its AQUANOX® A4708 pH Neutral Electronic Assembly Cleaning Chemistry. The award was presented during a Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2015 ceremony that took place at the San Diego Convention Center during the IPC APEX EXPO. 

AQUANOX® A4708 rapidly cleans under densely populated, low-gap PWB assemblies and is effective on all flux types, including no-clean and water soluble residues. A4708 is specifically formulated for enhanced metal compatibility and is safe for delicate gold and aluminum bonding pads. The specialized pH chemistry provides bright solder joints, even after multiple wash exposures.

“It’s heart-warming to have another KYZEN AQUANOX® product honored for excellence in electronic surface mount assembly cleaning, especially as we celebrate our 25th anniversary connecting leading science with care to develop advanced  solutions for the industry,” said Tom Forsythe, Vice President, KYZEN. “We are grateful and honored.”

Premiering in 2008, the NPI Awards program is an annual celebration of product excellence in electronics surface mount assembly. Premier products based on the finest examples of creative advancement in technology are chosen by a distinguished panel of industry experts.
