Description

The Soldron Soldering and Desoldering Flux is a high-quality, non-corrosive, and non-conductive flux paste designed for soldering and desoldering applications in electronics, electrical, and IoT projects. This 10g flux paste is a vital component in ensuring strong, reliable bonds between components and PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) while preventing oxidation and promoting efficient heat transfer.

The primary function of the Soldron Soldering and Desoldering Flux is to facilitate the soldering and desoldering process by

Removing oxidation: The flux paste removes oxidation and other impurities from the metal surfaces, allowing for a stronger bond between the solder and the component/PCB.
Reducing surface tension: The flux lowers the surface tension of the molten solder, enabling it to flow more easily and evenly, resulting in a stronger, more reliable joint.
Preventing re-oxidation: The flux prevents re-oxidation of the metal surfaces during the soldering process, ensuring a clean, oxide-free bond.

Key Features

Non-corrosive and non-conductive: The flux paste is safe to use on most electronic components and PCBs, as it does not conduct electricity and will not corrode or damage them.
High-temperature resistance: The flux can withstand high temperatures (up to 350C/662F) without degradation, making it suitable for a wide range of soldering applications.
Easy to apply: The flux paste is easy to apply to the desired area using a brush or syringe, allowing for precise control and minimal waste.
Low residue: The flux leaves minimal residue, reducing the risk of contamination and making cleanup easier.
Compatible with most solder types: The flux is compatible with a variety of solder types, including lead-free solders, making it a versatile option for different projects.
RoHS and REACH compliant: The flux paste meets the requirements of the European Union's RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals) regulations, ensuring a safe and environmentally friendly product.

Soldron Soldering and Desoldering Flux (10g) Documentation
Introduction:
The Soldron Soldering and Desoldering Flux (10g) is a specialized flux paste designed for soldering and desoldering applications in electronics assembly and repair. This documentation provides a detailed explanation of the flux's usage and connectivity.
Important Note: The Soldron Soldering and Desoldering Flux (10g) does not have pins, as it is a flux paste in a 10g container. It is applied directly to the soldering area using a brush or syringe. Therefore, there is no pinout structure to describe.
Usage and Application:
1. Application: Apply a small amount of flux to the soldering area using a brush or syringe. Ensure the flux covers the entire area to be soldered or desoldered.
2. Soldering: Place the soldering iron tip into the flux-covered area and solder as usual. The flux will help to remove oxidation, promote heat transfer, and improve solder flow.
3. Desoldering: Apply the flux to the area to be desoldered and heat the component with a soldering iron or hot air gun. The flux will help to break down the existing solder, making it easier to remove.
Precautions and Safety:
Handle the flux carefully to avoid skin and eye contact.
Use in a well-ventilated area to prevent inhalation of fumes.
Keep away from heat sources, open flames, and sparks.
Avoid mixing with other chemicals or substances.
Storage and Shelf Life:
Store the flux in its original container, tightly sealed, in a cool, dry place.
Shelf life: 2 years from the date of manufacture when stored properly.
Troubleshooting:
If the flux does not seem to be effective, ensure the area is clean and free of oxidation.
If the flux is too thick, mix with a small amount of solvent (e.g., isopropyl alcohol) to thin it out.
By following these guidelines, you can effectively use the Soldron Soldering and Desoldering Flux (10g) to improve your soldering and desoldering processes.
