FLUX RESIDUE REMOVERS, SLOVENT
CLEANERS & COMMON SOLVENTS
Chemical formulations designed to
efficiently remove rosin residues and organic flux residues after soldering. These
compounds also remove oils, soils and other contaminants from printed circuit assemblies,
solder joints and components.
1 Residue Removers
Bio #7
Alkaline biodegradable detergent rosin residue remover. It will create a
saponification reaction, turning rosin into biodegradable soap, readily rinsible with
water and easily disposable. Foaming is minimal and the risk of deterious effects on
components from halogenated hydrocarbon cleaners is eliminated.
2 Solvent Cleaners
158-UC
This is a non-flammable solvent cleaner for rosin residues. It contains polar plus
non-polar solvents to remove ionic traces of activating ingredients remaining after
soldering. Efficient for room temperature immersion-cleaning, but most effective in
ultrasonic or vapour-phase cleaning at elevated temperature.
168-UC
This cleaner is designed for use in removing oils and grease from metallic parts and
components. Capable of absorbing large amounts of contaminants yet still provide excellent
cleaning.
102-SC
Hi-Grade #102-SC Solvent Cleaner is designed for a variety of uses which includes
removing flux residues from printed circuit boards and acrylic based conformal coatings.
This solvent can also be used effectively for cleaning machinery or parts to remove
grease, oil, dirt and contamination. The #102-SC does not contain CFC or HCFC solvents,
and is not contained on the list of ozone depleting chemicals. Use of this solvent does
not violate the mandates set forth in the clean air act or the Montreal Protocol.
