CHEMTRONICS(R) TDS # 1035 Technical Data Sheet Flux-Off(R) Rosin Flux Remover PRODUCT DESCRIPTION (R) The Flux-Off Rosin formulation is a fast drying aerosol that quickly and completely removes R, RMA, RA, and synthetic flux residue. With it's low surface tension and superior wetting properties, Flux-Off(R) Rosin removes harmful residues in tight tolerance areas. Removes R, RMA, RA, and synthetic flux residues Penetrates hard to reach areas Evaporates quickly Leaves no residue Removes oil, grease, ionic and non-ionic residues Has low odor Non-corrosive formulation Contains no CFCs or HCFCs TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Flux-Off(R) Rosin removes flux residues and cleans: Chip Carriers Heat Sinks Plugs Printed Circuit Boards Relays Sockets Surface Mount Device Pads Switches TYPICAL PRODUCT DATA AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Boiling Point 141F Initial 20% Solubility in Water 0.70 Specific Gravity Evaporation Rate (butyl acetate=1) >1 17.3 Surface Tension (dynes/cm @21.6C) Flash Point (TCC) -20.0F Kauri-Butanol (KB) Number VOC* Content: Aerosol CARB SCAQMD Federal 75% 603 g/L 75% 50 Liquid 100% 720 g/L 100% RoHS Compliant Shelflife Aerosols 5 years Liquids 2 years after opening *Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) information is calculated on a weight basis using the VOC definition of California Air Resources Board (CARB) Consumer Product Regulations, South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Rule 102 and the Federal definition published in 40 CFR 51.100(s). COMPATIBILITY Flux-Off(R) Rosin is generally compatible with most materials used in the electronics industry. With any cleaning agent compatibility solvent/component must be determined on a non-critical area prior to use.

HCFC-141b is no longer produced in the US under this legislation. HCFC-225 is planned for production phase-out in 2015. Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are not currently regulated. EPA has listed n-propyl bromide (nPB) as an acceptable alternative to ozone depleting substances in metal, precision, and electronics cleaning under Section 612 of the Clean Air Act.
