Subject: [TN] Solder Surfactants in the solder pot

Hello all,

Has anyone within these walls used the newer flavors of solder surfactants
or is considering using them in their solder pots for wave? Since the cost
of Lead Free solder is so high and the dross production will be
significantly greater, we have been considering the use of this material to
reduce dross production thus reducing costs. There is a brand name called
MS2 technologies which is distributed through or made by PK Metals. There
is a material for Pb free soldering and Pb soldering depending on what you
are using. I have ordered some of this liquid material to determine the
effect it has on dross production and other components of flow soldering
(i.e. joint integrity, affects on the metals inside the solder pot,
increased or decreased wetting ability, and quite a few more components).

So if anyone has some insight into the new solder surfactants, I would
appreciate you help and guidance.

Thank You in advance and hope you all have a great weekend. I know I will
(maybe... hmmmm!) because I am proposing to my girlfriend this weekend -
hopefully she say's yes - I need all of you prayers ha ha! Chow!
