2. 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.

3. Soldering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering

   A third method of soldering is to use a solder pot where the part (with flux) is dipped in a small heated iron cup of liquid solder, or a pump in a bath of liquid solder produces an elevated "wave" of solder which the part is quickly passed through.

4. Solder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder

   Easy solder or repair solder are also often used for repair work for the same reason. Flux is also used to prevent joints from desoldering. Silver solder is also used in manufacturing to join metal parts that cannot be welded. The alloys used for these purposes contain a high proportion of silver (up to 40%), and may also contain cadmium.

5. Rosin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosin

   In industry, rosin is a flux used in soldering. The lead-tin solder commonly used in electronics has 1 to 2% rosin by weight as a flux core, helping the molten metal flow and making a better connection by reducing the refractory solid oxide layer formed at the surface back to metal. It is frequently seen as a burnt or clear residue around new ...

6. Reflow soldering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflow_soldering

   Reflow soldering is a process in which a solder paste (a sticky mixture of powdered solder and flux) is used to temporarily attach anywhere from one to thousands of tiny electrical components to their contact pads, after which the entire assembly is subjected to controlled heat. The solder paste reflows in a molten state, creating permanent ...

7. Borax - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borax

   Borax is also mixed with water as a flux when soldering jewelry metals such as gold or silver, where it allows the molten solder to wet the metal and flow evenly into the joint. [citation needed] Borax is also a good flux for "pre-tinning" tungsten with zinc, making the tungsten soft-solderable. [31] Borax is often used as a flux for forge ...
