Solvent flammability is a very difficult issue. The chemical behavior itself is difficult to measure precisely because it varies greatly, according to circumstances. Flammability is difficult to manage because of the environment in which the solvent is packaged, stored, shipped and used; and the risk can be difficult to predict because of exogenous factors such…

The wet to dry cleaning method typically works best for cleaning past the core region on male jumpers.You’ll need the following tools:A good-quality, non-linting wipe such as the Sticklers™ 640 Lint-Free CleanWipes or the Sticklers™ 600 Portable CleanWipes.A nonflammable cleaning fluid engineered specifically for cleaning fiber optic connecters such as the Stickers™ Fiber Optic Splice…

Contamination is one of the primary drivers of field failures in electronics today. Corrosion and electrochemical migration (“ECM”) is directly caused by residues left on PCBs. Contamination-related failures are pervasive and have been observed on batteries, LCDs, PCBAs, wiring, switches, under coatings, over coatings, etc. The problem is expected to get worse as continued reductions…

This flux remover selection guide provides a simple, non-technical comparison to help you choose the flux removerthat will work best on your particular PCB (printed circuit board) materials and contamination. PCBs need to be clean to perform as expected. MicroCare has both the products and the know-how to get circuit boards perfectly clean in a fast, consistent, safe and cost-effective…

This infographic outlines the problems caused by dirty printed circuit boards and shows you how to resolve them using four easy steps.

Flux Remover Pens are ideal for rework and repair or any time you need to touchup around tiny chips or other components. Pens come in different formulations to match the type of flux residue you encounter. Download the fleyer to learn more.
