BIOACT EC-78
Harmonization Code : 3208.20.90 | Paints and varnishes that are dispersed or dissolved in a non aqueous medium
Main features
- RMA/No-Clean/Lead-Free Flux Removal
- Low-Foaming Electronics Cleaning
- Saponifier and Corrosion-Inhibitor Formulation
Product Description
BIOACT™ EC-78 Aqueous Batch Defluxer is a concentrated, inherently low-foaming aqueous cleaner formulated with water-dilutable solvents, specialty saponifiers, and corrosion inhibitors. Designed for extended cleaning cycles in batch spray-in-air equipment, it removes a broad range of solder-flux residues while helping protect electronic assembly surfaces. The formulation operates without added defoamers or anti-tarnishing agents and is typically used at concentrations of 5% to 25%.
Key features
- Broad flux-residue removal: Formulated to remove RMA, no-clean, lead-free, and water-soluble solder-flux residues.
- Inherently low foaming: Supports the high temperatures and extended spray cycles commonly used in batch washers.
- Integrated corrosion protection: Contains corrosion inhibitors to help protect electronic assembly surfaces during cleaning.
- No supplemental additives required: Does not require added defoamers or anti-tarnishing agents to maintain cleaning performance.
Applications / Suitable for
- Aqueous batch spray-in-air cleaning equipment
- Defluxing printed circuit board assemblies
- Removal of RMA, no-clean, lead-free, and water-soluble flux residues
- Extended-cycle batch washing processes
