VOC-free flux

8 August 2012 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

AIM has announced that its NC275LR VOC-free flux meets the new SIR (surface insulation resistance) requirements. The flux eliminates volatile organic compounds and meets the newest SIR and corrosion testing requirements.

NC275LR is a water-based, halide-free, no-clean liquid flux formulated to offer low residue and excellent wetting for lead-free and tin-lead wave soldering applications. It passed the new SIR requirements under the IPC J-STD-004B test method 2.6.3.7 at process temperature and when air dried.

NC275LR offers low post-process residues, resulting in better aesthetics as well as improved first pass in-circuit testing and a reduced need to clean pallets and conveyors.

It has also proven to reduce preventive maintenance requirements for spray fluxing applications.

Offering a broad activation range, the flux has proven to be effective for a variety of process parameters and applications, including lead-free wave soldering with tin-silver-copper, tin-silver, tin-copper and other alloys. It features excellent performance even in extended dwell times.

Additionally, NC275LR offers low fuming and fast solvent evaporation. It is compatible with a broad range of tin-lead and lead-free alloys and is available in a variety of packaging.
