Currently, oxidation reaction, poor wettability and high peak temperature during soldering of PCBs create harm to electronic solder joints. To offset these effects, using nitrogen to inert the atmosphere during soldering has become a globally accepted practice within electronic assembly. Nitrogen atmosphere improves the wettability of solder, reduces the degree of oxidation, and accelerates the speed of soldering reaction.
Whatever you need to inert your wave soldering equipment and simultaneously decrease costs, Nexelia™ for Wave Soldering is the optimal choice.
