Abstract: | The introduction of no-clean pastes and fluxes for the surface mount technology process needs testing methods of high sensitivity
and reliability to evaluate the activity of the residues after the reflow process. An electrochemical method is proposed,
suitable to ascertain the reactivity and the corrosion risk of these residues. Products of normal use are tested, and their
behavior described and compared. Surface morphologies and compositions are examined after reflow and after testing. Local
surface oxides are investigated with x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Surface analytical results are interpreted and related
to the electrochemical behavior of solder joints. Tin is shown to have the most important role toward the onset of possible
localized corrosion. |
