Another question I have is, does the MS2 leave any kind of residues on the
pot walls or wave formers?
Dross formation has become somewhat a topic of discussion here. It has been
noticed that we've been generating more dross with our new Vitronics/Soltec
Delta-5 than we did when we had a Technical Devices wave solder machine. I
tend to think that is because we've been waving more boards in selective
solder pallets than we did in the past, and also partially because of the
wave dynamics in the Delta-5...it seems to circulate the solder more.
One last question, what do the solder recovery systems cost?

With the high cost of LF solder I don't want to add anything and have 1,800
lbs of bad Pb-free solder.
I would rather buy a recovery system and return the same good solder into
the pot.
I also have to be conscious of the safety aspects of the fumes and reaction
between the additive with the flux used and the solder.
Some of the fluxes have added things so the fumes aren't obnoxious but that
doesn't mean they are safe.

No, like I said we do not use this material in the selective soldering
process.

Richard,
Have you seen any change in bridging or other soldering performance on
the selective process due to the addition of this material?

We use this product in our Robotic Tinning Cells made by V-Tek. These
cells have automatic dross skimmers on top of the laminar flow solder
wells, and when we use this product coupled with our proprietary oxygen
evacuation vapor barrier the amount of dross is cut way, way down. It is
a good product. We used to use a number of de-oxidizers in our wave
solder machine, and this was the last one we used before shutting the
machine down. We no longer need to run the wave solder machine because
we added selective solder, which uses only the oxygen evacuation vapor
blanket over the fountain (no nitrogen needed). But I strongly recommend
you try the MS2 in your wave solder pot. It should work better than
Oxy-clean and other brands.

John,
I am glad you asked this. I just received an advertisement from some
company called PKMetal for a "MS2 Molten Solder Surfactant" which is
supposed to reduce dross. It worries me to add anything to the pot that
might be a pain to deal with later. So...I was wondering the same
thing! What's the experience out there?

Hi Guys, have you any thoughts on adding an additive to the wave solder
pots to reduce dross have any of you had experience with this
application I have been asked to look at this
and It scares me a little
The purpose of this project is to evaluate the two high potential Solder
Surfactant/Antioxidant, MS2-200LF & JR07-VI, to get its quantitive and
qualitative performance and cost saving in lead-free wave soldering
process.
