Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of
- PCBs PCBs
- soldering flux it is usual for soldering flux to be applied to the boards to promote strong bonding of the solder to the board.
- the flux and solder may be applied, for example, by the wave soldering method or the reflow soldering method. After soldering, flux remains on the boards.
- Rosin-containing fluxes include rosin mildly activated (RMA) and rosin activated (RA) fluxes, which are obtained by activation of a rosincontaining flux using, for example, organic acids, amines, amides or halogen-containing compounds.
- RMA rosin mildly activated
- RA rosin activated
- Many of the activating materials decompose on soldering thus giving rise to inorganic substances that can damage the electronic components.
- the residue to be removed thus comprises a combination of rosin molecules and inorganic substances.
- European Patent Specification No. 416,763 discloses compositions for cleaning dirty articles, for example, PCBs, comprising terpene hydrocarbons or other non- halogenated solvents. After the cleaning step, remaining traces of solvent are said to be removed azeotropically, by forming an azeotrope between the solvent and an aqueous medium, the azeotropic mixture being evaporated from the surface of the article.
- a low boiling organic solvent for example a ketone, amine, ether or alcohol may be included in the cleaning
- the low boiling organic solvent if present, is preferred to be a C3 to C4 alcohol.
- Japanese Patent Specification No. 3-6300 discloses the use of an oleophilic detergent comprising a terpene hydrocarbon selected from 10C monoterpenes to 15C sesquiterpenes, with turpentine oil and a surfactant.

- the further polar organic solvent may be, for example, an alcohol.
- alcohols there are proposed aliphatic, cyclic and aromatic alcohols that in each case have seven or fewer carbon atoms.
- British Patent Specification No. 2,175,004 discloses a cleaning composition for removing dirt and grease from metal and plastic surfaces, the composition containing from 85 to 97 parts by weight of a non-aromatic
- hydrocarbon including aliphatic and/or cyclo-aliphatic compounds, from 3 to 15 parts by weight of alkylated aromatic substances containing at least one C8 to C18 alkyl group and, in a preferred form, from 0.1 to 1 part by weight of an additive which renders the composition more incompatible with water, so facilitating separation from water after the cleaning step.
- the additive may be selected from aliphatic alcohols having from 8 to 20 carbon atoms, ether derivatives of alkylene glycols and hydroxycarboxylic acids having more than 8 carbon atoms.
- British Patent Specification No. 1,524,448 discloses a cold cleaner for removing oily and fatty contaminations from surfaces.
- the composition may contain a mineral oil fraction, which is preferred to be a mostly paraffinic or naphthenic fraction, and saturated or unsaturated
- aliphatic alcohols or alicyclic alcohols with from 6 to 20 carbon atoms and/or fatty acids, and a sulphosuccinic acid diester As alcohols, unsaturated alcohols are said to be preferred.
- a terpene containing a terpene, optionally in combination with a surfactant that is capable of emulsifying the terpene.
- European Patent Specification No. 412,475 discloses a cleaning composition for cleaning PCBs, the
- composition containing, a dibasic ester and a hydrocarbon solvent other than a terpene.
- hydrocarbon solvents are proposed petroleum derived solvents, for example, mineral spirits, naphthas and aromatics.
- the composition may contain a further component, for example a non-ionic surfactant, for improving the miscibility of the dibasic ester and hydrocarbon solvent.
- European Patent Specification No. 104,633 discloses a method of cleaning PCBs in which the boards are

- the alkyl groups of the alkylbenzene sulphonate and the alkyl phenol alkoxylate may in each case advantageously be an aliphatic, cyclic or alicyclic alkyl group having from 8 to 14 carbon atoms.
- the detergent solution may, for example, be a mixture of a dodecylbenzene sulphonate and a dodecylphenol ethoxylate.
- the article is preferably an electronic component, more especially a PCB.
- the method of the invention may be used with particular advantage in the cleaning of articles that have been soldered with the use of a rosin-containing flux, the method may also be used in the cleaning of articles that have been soldered with the assistance of synthetic water-soluble fluxes.
- composition for cleaning articles comprising:
- fraction obtained by distillation of petroleum the said fraction containing not less than 92%, preferably not less than 99%, by weight, based on the total weight of the fraction, of hydrocarbons selected from C8 to C15 paraffinic and naphthenic hydrocarbons; and
- composition being substantially free of any halogen- containing organic compound.
- the process of the invention is particularly concerned with
- hydrocarbons and/or mixtures of alcohols also promotes dissolution of the rosin molecules.
- the solvents and solvent mixture used in accordance with the invention enable the use of halogen-substituted organic compounds, which are known to have ozone
- the mixture has low toxicity and a high flash point so that it is relatively safe to use and complicated handling procedures are unnecessary. Moreover, it is non-corrosive to materials generally used in the manufacture of PCBs.
- the board or comb was wave soldered at 250°C using 63/37 (tin/lead) alloy, at a conveyor speed of 1.5 meter per min.
- the upper side of the board or comb was
- the cream used was of AAS powder at 86% metal, with a 62% tin content.
- the cream was applied to the board or comb by manual screen printing and reflowed by heating in a BTU infrared oven. In each case either an RMA cream flux or a "no clean" synthetic water-soluble cream flux was used.
- the board or comb was hand soldered with 60/40
- IBP and FBP represent the respective temperatures at which boiling commences and finishes.
- PMCC Pensky- Martens closed cup.
- soldered board or comb was individually cleaned in 500 ml of the cleaning composition under ultrasonic agitation at 45°C.
- the soldered board or comb was then rinsed by immersion in a detergent solution containing 10% by volume of a mixture of dodecylbenzene sulphonate and dodecylphenol ethoxylate in deionised water.
- the board or comb was then rinsed in deionised water and dried in hot air.
- the surface insulation resistance (SIR) of the boards and combs was also determined.
- SIR surface insulation resistance
- the initial insulation resistance of each board or comb was measured using a voltage of 500 V DC for 1 minute prior to placing each board or comb in a humidity chamber at 40°C, 90% relative humidity (RH) for 96 hours.
- the SIR was then measured again under the humid conditions (90% relative humidity at 40°C) using 500 V DC.
- the results of the SIR test are given in Table II.
- a cleaning mixture containing 5 parts by volume of isomeric C6 and C7 alcohols and 95 parts by volume of C10 to C13 paraffins and naphthenes was prepared.
- IPA isopropyl alcohol
- the rosin content of the IPA was determined by spectrophotometry at wavelength 242 nm.
- a halogenated cleaning fluid containing 93 parts by volume of CFC-113 and 7 parts by volume of methanol was prepared and six PCBs coated with activated fluxes were cleansed individually by the condensing vapour (b.p. 48°C) of the halogenated fluid for five minutes in a closed container. Upon cleansing, the specimens were treated as in the case of the
