Galden LS230 – 230℃ Vapor Phase Soldering PFPE Fluid
Material: PFPE (Perfluoropolyether)
Density (25℃): 1.82 g/cm³
Boiling Point: 230℃
Viscosity (25℃): 4.40 cSt
Packing: 5 KG / drum
Galden LS230 is a medium-high boiling point perfluoropolyether (PFPE) fluid specifically designed for Vapor Phase Soldering (VPS) of standard and lead-free solder alloys. Manufactured by Syensqo (formerly Solvay), this fluid features a narrow molecular weight distribution, combined with the very strong carbon-fluorine bond and flexible ether link, providing the properties that make Galden LS230 ideal for VPS applications requiring a 230℃ process temperature.
With a boiling point of 230℃, Galden LS230 bridges the gap between the standard LS200 (200℃) and high-temperature HS260 (260℃), offering a versatile solution for electronics manufacturers who need higher process temperatures than LS200 but do not require the extreme 260℃ of HS260. Its balanced viscosity (4.40 cSt at 25℃) ensures efficient heat transfer and excellent wetting of solder joints.
