2. Solder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder

   In contrast to using traditional bars or coiled wires of all-metal solder and manually applying flux to the parts being joined, much hand soldering since the mid-20th century has used flux-core solder. This is manufactured as a coiled wire of solder, with one or more continuous bodies of inorganic acid or rosin flux embedded lengthwise inside it.

3. Flux (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_(metallurgy)

   Rosin used as flux for soldering A flux pen used for electronics rework Multicore solder containing flux Wire freshly coated with solder, held above molten rosin flux. In metallurgy, a flux is a chemical reducing agent, flowing agent, or purifying agent. Fluxes may have more than one function at a time.

4. Soldering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering

   Building codes currently almost universally require the use of lead-free solder for drinking water piping (and also flux must be approved for drinking water applications), though traditional tin-lead solder is still available. Studies have shown that lead-soldered plumbing pipes can result in elevated levels of lead in drinking water.

5. Solder alloys - Wikipedia

   Copper content increases hardness of the alloy and inhibits dissolution of soldering iron tips and part leads in molten solder. Sn 62 Pb 37 Cu 1: 183 [17] Pb: Yes: Similar to Sn 63 Pb 37. Copper content increases hardness of the alloy and inhibits dissolution of soldering iron tips and part leads in molten solder. Sn 63 Pb 37 P 0.0015-0.04: 183 ...

6. Solder paste - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder_paste

   The paste manufacturer will suggest a suitable reflow temperature profile to suit their individual paste. The main requirement is a gentle rise in temperature to prevent explosive expansion (which can cause "solder balling"), yet activate the flux. Thereafter, the solder melts. The time in this area is known as Time Above Liquidus. A reasonably ...

7. Wave soldering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_soldering

   Flux in the wave soldering process has a primary and a secondary objective. The primary objective is to clean the components that are to be soldered, principally any oxide layers that may have formed. [3] There are two types of flux, corrosive and noncorrosive. Noncorrosive flux requires precleaning and is used when low acidity is required.
