<strong>ALPHA</strong> 425 <strong>THINNERS</strong><br />
DESCRIPTION<br />
Alpha 425 thinners is produced from the highest quality Isopropyl alcohol, which is essential to restore<br />
Alpha soldering chemicals to peak performance.<br />
USE<br />
<strong>The</strong> solvent system is an important factor in determining the effectiveness of soldering<br />
chemicals. On exposure to air, solvents contained in most soldering chemicals begin to<br />
evaporate, thus changing the physical properties of the original material. Evaporation loss may<br />
adversely affect the surface tension, wetting power and overall quality of the material.<br />
To restore the soldering chemical to its original consistency and maintain maximum product<br />
efficiency, only the recommended compatable thinning materials should be used. <strong>The</strong> use of<br />
425 thinners with applicable fluxes will reduce the likelihood of icicling and bridging on circuits.<br />
APPLICATION<br />
Information on thinning is given in the Technical Bulletin for each soldering chemical.<br />
