[Column] What is Flux? An Introduction to Its Types, Roles, and Usage
What is flux? An introduction to its types, roles, and usage! Numerous achievements in various fields! Leave the design and development of electrical and electronic circuits to Nippo!
Flux is an essential solvent for achieving good soldering. It removes surface contaminants such as metal oxides (oxidation films) and ensures reliable bonding. The main roles of flux are as follows: 1. Cleaning Dissolving or reducing oxides and other contaminants on metal surfaces to clean them. 2. Reducing surface tension Weakening the surface tension of molten solder so that it spreads and adheres to the base material surface (promoting wetting of the base material surface). 3. Preventing oxidation Quickly covering the cleaned metal surface to prevent (re)oxidation. Furthermore, flux comes in three main forms: liquid, powder, or solid/paste, and it is necessary to select the appropriate type based on the solder type and soldering conditions. Nippo leverages its strengths in high quality and high reliability to provide a wide range of services from the design and development of electrical and electronic circuits to the design, development, and manufacturing of printed circuit boards, as well as the construction of control systems.
