Fluxes for electronics manufacturing
To be an innovative leader in fluxes, you have to know the markets excellently. Only then can a company develop innovative solutions for existing challenges on the customer side. This applies not only to special products, but also to products in different areas of application, such as the fluxes from Emil Otto. Some of these can be used in electronics manufacturing, metal processing and in the solar industry.

Flux – the key to precise soldering and durable connections
In modern electronics manufacturing and cable assembly, fluxes play a crucial role in soldering and electrical connection processes. Fluxes not only ensure the optimum adhesion of solder metals. In the electronics industry, these chemical products also prevent and remove oxidation on component surfaces during the soldering process and improve heat transfer. These properties are particularly important for creating reliable and durable connections that meet the requirements of demanding applications.
Fluxes promote the flowing properties of the solder and ensure even and precise dispensing. There are various types of fluxes, including water-based, alcohol-based and alcohol- and water-based fluxes, which are used depending on the application and soldering process.
Fluxes are crucial for ensuring that soldered joints have high electrical conductivity and mechanical strength. If the wrong flux is used, the result can be an instable connection, which in turn can lead to failures or malfunctions in electronic assemblies.
Fluxes offer the following advantages within the soldering process:
Fluxes ensure a clean and secure connection, which extends the service life of electronic components.
Pretreating component surfaces with fluxes significantly reduces the potential for soldering errors.
Soldering defects can be expensive. The use of fluxes reduces the defect rate and thus lowers production costs.
Fluxes are indispensable for modern electronics manufacturing. They improve soldering quality, increase the reliability of connections and contribute to the efficiency of the production process. At Emil Otto, you will find a wide range of high-quality fluxes. The different products are tailored to the complex needs of industry.
