General Information
Relations
Overview
EN ISO 12224-2:2024 is an international standard developed by CEN and ISO that specifies two precise methods for determining the flux content in flux-cored solder wire. This is part 2 of the ISO 12224 series, focusing on test methods and specifications essential for quality control in solder wire production and testing. The standard ensures consistent evaluation of solder wire flux content, which is critical for reliable soldering performance in electronics and metal joining applications.
Key Topics
- Scope: Defines methods for quantifying flux content in flux-cored solder wire samples.
- Methods for Flux Determination:
- Method A: Solder melting in a solder bath with separation and weighing of flux.
- Method B: Use of glycerol medium for melting and flux separation.
- Method C: Bunsen burner heating with subsequent flux removal and solder pellet weighing.
- Apparatus and Materials: Includes requirements for balances with ±0.001 g accuracy, crucibles (porcelain or quartz), solder baths, Bunsen burners, scrapers, and cleaning solvents (e.g., propan-2-ol).
- Calculation of Flux Content: Flux content is expressed as a percentage by mass of the original solder wire sample.
- Quality Control: Procedures specify duplicate testing and tolerance for variability between determinations.
- Test Reporting: Guidelines for documentation including sample identification, reference to ISO 12224-2:2024, method used, and test results.
Applications
EN ISO 12224-2:2024 is critical for manufacturers, quality inspectors, and material engineers working with solder wire products, particularly flux-cored types used widely in electronics assembly, electrical connections, and metal fabrication. The standard helps to:
- Guarantee Flux Consistency: Ensuring correct flux levels for effective soldering and corrosion control.
- Enable Quality Assurance: Providing standardized procedures for flux content testing during production and incoming inspection.
- Support Product Certification: Compliance with internationally recognized testing underpins product acceptance in global markets.
- Enhance Process Reliability: Understanding flux content assists in optimizing soldering parameters and minimizing defects.
- Facilitate Supplier and Purchaser Agreements: Establishing agreed-upon test methods to resolve disputes or verify specifications.
Related Standards
- ISO 9453: Defines chemical compositions and forms of soft solder alloys, referenced for solder bath preparation.
- ISO/IEC Directives: Provides editorial and procedural frameworks for ISO standards development and implementation.
- Other parts of the ISO 12224 series: Cover additional specifications and testing methods related to solder wire quality.
Keywords: flux-cored solder wire, flux content determination, solder wire testing, EN ISO 12224-2:2024, solder wire specification, flux analysis methods, quality assurance in soldering, solder wire flux measurement, solder bath testing, flux-cored solder quality control.
