Emil Otto introduces ROL0 flux pastes

"Flux pastes are a paste-like electronic flux that can be used for all types of manual and repair soldering. Flux pastes are also suitable for dip tinning and special applications," explains Markus Geßner, Head of Marketing and Sales at Emil Otto GmbH. Both ROL0 fluxes are characterized by the fact that they leave only minimal residues on the circuit board after soldering. The residues are usually so small that they do not require any additional cleaning. This is why these flux pastes are referred to as no-clean flux pastes. The two new products are the flux pastes EO-FP-003 and the flux paste according to EMIL, which are available immediately.

The flux paste EO-FP-003 was specially developed for repair work on printed circuit boards and for applications in accordance with IPC/IPC 610. The flux paste is ideal for use during repair work, especially for assemblies subject to high stress, as even contaminated pads and component pins can be activated. Due to the good activation properties of the paste, it can be used sparingly in small, metered quantities. The flux paste can be applied using hot air and soldering irons, but also with a mini wave.

The newly introduced flux paste according to EMIL is also a no-clean flux paste, which is also characterized by strong activation properties as well as very good wetting and spreading behaviour. Due to its highly active activation properties, EMIL flux paste reliably supports the wave soldering of particularly critical components, such as THT components with brass or nickel pins. "This means that a sparingly dosed application of the paste is sufficient to achieve very good soldering results," emphasizes Geßner. Similar to the flux paste EO-FP-003, it can also be applied using hot air and soldering irons or a mini wave.
