Formic acid tank (bubbler)
To achieve a stable, reliable, flux-free soldering process, the inert carrier gas (N
2
) is enriched with formic acid (HCOOH) and
transferred into the process chamber. So that the “saturation” of the carrier gas with formic acid remains constant, it is neces-
sary to keep the parameters constant while the liquid formic acid is flowing through. These include the flow velocity, flow rate,
temperature and the lling capacity of the formic acid tank (bubbler). Thanks to today’s control engineering, the nitrogen flow
rate can be monitored easily and reliably. Unlike the ll level of formic acid in conventional bubbler solutions which must be
manually relled with acid – taking into account the protective measures for employees – and here are subject to a greater
fluctuation in the lling capacity. This is not the case for this new generation of bubblers which monitor and readjusts the ll
level. This allows a stable process, and also increases the safety of employees, because original containers (standard 10 l)
with formic acid can be inserted into the housing of the bubbler without decanting. To make the device even safer, the housing
is monitored and equipped with its own suction system.
The removal of the oxides on metals with formic acid is performed using a two-step process; the schematic sequence of
this process can be seen in the following diagram. During the rst step, so-called formates of the metal are formed and the
formates are decomposed (Cu) or vaporised (SnO, SnO
2
) at approx. 200 °C. The H+ formed during the second step supports
oxide removal as well as the molten solder from the melting temperature in the reductive environment. This allows for a highly
wettable surface on copper and other metals. The application is suitable from process temperatures upwards of 200 °C.
