Fluxes&Solder Ability,http:/,Fluxes&Solderability,What is a flux?What does it do?Different types of fluxes?Flux testing&classificationWhat is Solderability?What can effect solderability?How do we measure solderability?,http:/,What is soldering?,In order to get a solder joint,the surfaces to be soldered must be free from dirt and oxides.Oxides are formed during the hot soldering process.Therefore a FLUX must be used.The flux cleans and protects the joint during the soldering process.,http:/,Flux,A fluxs job is to remove the oxide and other surface contaminants from the materials to be soldered and the solder itself.If this is not done the solder cannot wet the surfaces to be soldered.The flux will also form a protective layer over the joint,preventing further oxidation during the soldering process.The flux will also aid heat transfer.,http:/,Flux,Substrate,Solder,Flux,Oxide,Intermetallic,http:/,Types of fluxes,Fluxes may be found in various forms:Solid flux within a solder wireLiquid flux for flow solder machinesThick flux medium within a solder pasteGels or pens for reworkThe same principles apply for all the above,http:/,Solder Wires,5

are reduced to elemental copper.,http:/,Dendritic Growth,Cathodes,Dendrites,Direction of flow,Direction of growth,http:/,All no-clean fluxes should be tested to a suitable protocol which will indicate the long term reliability of the residues under adverse conditions.All Multicore fluxes are test under elevated temperature&humidity to the IPC and Bellcore SIR and Electromigration tests.Other protocols may be used on request.,http:/,Solvents,A blend of solvents is often used to maximise the solubility of the flux components and give the best balance between printing and reflow characteristicsA high boiling solvent will prolong tack&stencil lifeA low boiling solvent will give good reflow results with little slumpMuch research goes into the optimum blend of solvents,http:/,Gelling Agents,Impart Suitable RheologyContribute to slump resistanceThe metal content of the paste will also effect these characteristics.,http:/,Flux:Summary,Cleans substrate,component and powder to allow soldering to take placeMay use acid,halide or a combination of the two as the“active ingredient”Must be tested to the appropriate protocol if used as a no-clean flux,http:/,Solderability,Intermetallic,Component,Substrate,Solder,http:/,Solderability,Solderability relates to how well a component will solder under production conditions.There are three aspects to be consideredWettability of metallisationResistance of metallisation to dissolutionResistance to soldering heat,http:/,Wettability of Metallisation,Mainly determined by the condition of the surface of the metallisationEffected by oxidation,surface contaminants and filmsHeat sink effects will contributeWill effect the spread or wicking of solder,http:/,Resistance of Metallisation to Dissolution,During soldering part of the substrate surface will be dissolvedThe rate of dissolution will depend on temperature,time,quantity of molten solder,composition of solder and composition of metallisationLow dissolution rates will give slow solderingHigh dissolution rates may result in de-wetting or solder contamination,http:/,Substrate Dissolution,Solder partly dissolves the surface being solderedToo much dissolution can contaminate the solder or remove the solderable coatingRate can be reduced by loading the solder with constituent of substrate.eg.Cu when soldering to Cu(SAVBIT)Ag When soldering to Ag/Pd(SN62),http:/,DISSOLUTION RATES,AuVery fastAgfastCu,Electroless NiModeratePdSlowNi,PtVery slow,http:/,Resistance to Soldering Heat,Will the component withstand the soldering process?(e.g thermal shock)If a component is incapable of seeing the temperatures require to obtain a good solder joint it is unsolderable.,http:/,Solderability testing,The simplest solderability test is the“dip&look”testThis is non-quantitative testFlux component with a test flux,dip in molten solder&inspectOnly able to recognise very poor solderability components,http:/,Wetting Balance,In order to obtain an accurate idea of how solderable a component(or board)is,you must have control of all parametersalloy typealloy temperaturepre-heatspeed of immersiondwell timespeed of withdrawal,http:/,Wetting Balance,The wetting balance should be capable of controlling all these parameters whilst making accurate measurements throughout the duration of the test in order to determinehow well the solder wets(wetting force)how fast the solder wets(wetting speed)if there is any evidence of de-wetting,http:/,Wetting Balance,Very sensitive micro-balance,Copper

balance,F,T,Max wetting force,Time to 2/3 max force,Evidence of de-wetting,http:/,De-Wetting,De-wetting is the withdrawal of solder from the surface after initial wetting has occurredA thin layer of solder will be evident over most of the surface with irregular shaped“droplets”of solder here and thereDe-wetting will be caused by contamination of either the solder,substrate or componentDe-wetting will be influenced by soldering temperatures and times,http:/,Wetting Balance,F,T,The graphs are often shown this way upYou can clearly see the speed and force of wettingEvidence of de-wetting can also be clearly seen,http:/,Test Fluxes,Any flux can be used for a solderability test in order to get comparative resultTest flux can be used to obtain results in accordance with specifications such as IEC 68-2-58Common test fluxes are SM/NA(un-activated 25%rosin),Actiec2(25%rosin,0.2%chloride)or Actiec5(0.5%chloride),http:/,Globule Testing,http:/,Globule Testing,SMD components are often difficult to test using a plain bath due to the small forces involvedConsiderable improvement has been found by use of a solder globuleThis amplifies the forces involved and will also enable“step&repeat”to be used on multi-leaded components,http:/,Globule Testing,Solder Globule(fluxed),Component(fluxed),http:/,Globule Testing,Balance,http:/,Globule Testing,http:/,Solderability:Summary,A measure of how suitable a component or substrate is for the soldering processIt involves:Wettability of metallisationResistance of metallisation to dissolutionResistance to soldering heatIt will be effected by age,handling,surface finish,solder type,contamination,storage conditions.,http:/,
