In the mid-1960s Allen and a group of associates attempted a solder flux company that failed.

Solder fluxes are specified according to several standards.

It is found in some soldering fluxes.

Cleaning solvents are used to remove oil, grease, solder flux, and other contaminants.

It is a gaseous anti-oxidant in brazing and solder flux.

The solder preform may include the solder flux needed for the soldering process.

Solder paste sometimes refers to soldering flux that does not contain solder.

Many types are not perfectly sealed, with contaminants and moisture entering the part; an especially common contaminant is the solder flux.

It has been used as a soldering flux for alloys of aluminium, iron, zinc, tungsten, and monel.

Electronics cleaning is removing contaminants, primarily solder flux residues, from electronics or circuit boards.

Proper cleaning removes all traces of solder flux, as well as dirt and other contaminants that may be invisible to the naked eye.

You will also need a can of noncorrosive soldering flux with an applicator brush, and a piece of fine-grade emery cloth.

Residues of solder flux may facilitate corrosion; those of other materials on PCBs can cause electrical leaks.

For example, polyglycols from the solder flux can enter the board and increase its humidity intake, with corresponding deterioration of dielectric and corrosion properties.

Soldering flux is formulated to remove a film of oxides from the metal and make the solder and metal more able to dissolve in each other.

A few hundred different agents have been implicated with the most common being: isocyanates, grain and wood dust, colophony, soldering flux, latex, animals, and aldehydes.

The only tools and materials needed are fine steel wool or emery cloth, non-acid soldering flux, lead-free solder and a propane torch.

This poisoning is caused by an overdose of acid soldering flux, a chemical used to clean and protect the area (joint) where two pieces of metal come together.

Randolph Engineering also produces their own high-strength solder flux, and every pair of their glasses comes with a lifetime replacement guarantee for every solder joint.

Regards, ProfHoff 849 Soldering flux is just a safe, convenient acid for dissolving the oxide skin off the metal you want your solder to wet well.

Hydrocarbons (including ammonium chloride, rosin, hydrochloric acid, and zinc chloride) Soldering flux Note: This list may not be all inclusive.

From various parts of the room came the smell of soldering flux and cigarettes, the whirring of a hand-drill, swearing, and Mamurin's despairing shouts on the telephone.

Rosin is an ingredient in printing inks, photocopying and laser printing paper, varnishes, adhesives (glues), soap, paper sizing, soda, soldering fluxes, and sealing wax.

Soldering flux will help to remove oxide; the more active the flux the better the cleaning, although acidic flux used on circuit boards and not carefully cleaned off will cause corrosion.

Certain manufacturing standards, such as those written by the IPC - Association Connecting Electronics Industries require cleaning regardless of the solder flux type used to ensure a thoroughly clean board.
