New Low VOC Flux from Cobar
Breda, the Netherlands — The Balver Zinn Group’s Cobar Solder Products Inc. has introduced its new 95 RX Flux Series. The low-VOC flux technology has been developed for vintage soldering machines that still use foam fluxers. Most vintage ma- chines use a porous ceramic or plas- tic stone/tube (25 to 45µm) that al- lows compressed air to fill a tower with bubbles of flux and condense/adhere to the bottom of the PCB as it passes over. Typical problems
with older IPA based fluxes include spilling over the top of the board and traveling up and out the top of the plated thru-holes (PTH) and routing slots. By its nature, the aeration of the flux causes the IPA to evaporate quickly. Cobar’s newly
formulated foaming flux can foam up to 1/2-in. (12.7mm) high, but will not creep out of the slots and PTH like the IPA based fluxes do. This is due to the influence of the water and its higher surface tension. The water content also provides very strong foaming bubbles that carry a lot of kinetic energy; this actively assists in cleaning the surfaces and gets flux

Flux provides tightly controlled foaming.
VOC fluxes foam extremely well, even in the oldest foam fluxers, and the height can be more precisely con- trolled.
