Acid Cleaner

Introducing the KT-180 Acid Cleaner

Say goodbye to chemical residues left behind by conventional cleaners that impede the effect of the roughening agent in subsequent process steps.

With the KT-180 Acid Cleaner, your board will be free from inhibitors and perfectly prepped for the next steps in the EtchBond process. The KT-180 Acid Cleaner is a multi-functional solution that effectively removes not just fingerprints but also oxide residues and dry film adhesives from Cu surfaces. But it doesn't stop there. This powerful cleaner ensures a residue-free surface post-treatment, providing an immaculate base for your procedures. Unlike conventional degreasing chemicals or rust-removing agents, the KT-180 Acid Cleaner operates differently. It etches away approximately 0.1-0.2 μm of inhibitors and foreign materials from the board's surface. This is a process that until now, only mechanical scrubbing could achieve.

As a result, the cleaner is also a viable option prior to Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold (ENIG) processes. But the functionality of the KT-180 Acid Cleaner extends even further. This superior cleaner proves highly efficient as a pre-treatment solution prior to Hot Air Solder Leveling (HASL). It effectively eliminates any residues left on copper pads after curing the solder mask, ensuring a clean and ready surface.

Embrace the power of KT-180 Acid Cleaner for your EtchBond process. Invest in superior cleaning performance that leaves no residues, removes stubborn contaminants, and prepares your board perfectly for further processes.
