Cleaning:
● Cleaning Solder Paste from Stencils:
● LOCTITE GC 10 is a no-clean solder paste designed to be
left on the PCB in many applications post assembly; it does
not pose a hazard to long-term reliability
● For stencil cleaning and cleaning board misprints, LOCTITE
MSC 01 solvent cleaner is recommended
.
● Cleaning Solder Paste from Circuit Boards:
● Residues can be removed using conventional cleaning
processes based on solvents, such as LOCTITE MCF 800.
● Cleaning of some assemblies is best conducted in an
ultrasonic bath.
● Tap water is not recommended for rinsing. Ionic impurities
present in tap water can lead to reduced reliability of the
assembly.
