Soldering flux is (or at least, should be) one of the ubiquitous features of any electronics bench. It serves the purpose of excluding oxygen from a solder joint as it solidifies, and in most cases ...

Improves wetting: Flux helps molten solder flow smoothly (or “wet”) across the surfaces, promoting even coverage and a strong metallurgical bond.

The Turbo Torch® Viper line includes five brazing rod alloys, five solders, four high silver alloys, three fluxes, and an aluminum repair kit. The brazing alloys are ideal for joining copper to copper ...

Most assemblers in the electronic industry use no-clean solder paste mainly to eliminate having to clean the circuit-board assemblies. Manufacturers such as Rush PCB prefer to run all production with ...

A group of researchers from the Korea Electronics Technology Institute (KETI) has investigated how commercially available solder fluxes can corrode indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes in heterojunction ...
