• Organic, Water Soluble Flux
• Also available in 5-gal. containers and 55-gal. drums. Call 800-482-4440 for more information.

Because of the ability to remove organic flux residue with water and the ease of disposal of the cleaning solutions, organic fluxes are frequently used for electronics soldering applications. Biodegradable, non-acid, organic fluxes are not as heat stable as rosin fluxes, but do provide more rapid fluxing action for high speed wave or drag soldering. Environmentally friendly, water-based Formula 2220VF is free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which eliminates the need to use ozone depleting chemicals. It provides maximum capillary wetting action up plated through-holes, making it ideal for use on multilayer boards. Solvent-based Formula 2331ZX is a truly neutral flux, rather than a self-neutralizing flux. It contains no water, polyglycols or non-water-soluble solvents, is non-spattering and environmentally safe. This flux emits no offensive odors during soldering and is chemically stable in low temperature storage environments.

Lead-free wave and selective soldering require exposing the flux to slightly higher soldering temperatures. Lead-free alloys traditionally wet metal surfaces more slowly than tin-lead. Kester liquid fluxes for lead-free assembly have new activator packages to enable rapid wetting and hole-filling, ensuing reliable product output. They can be applied to circuit boards by a spray, foam, or dip process.
