DESCRIPTION

TECHNIETCH D-688TC is an organic acid based copper microetch specially formulated to be used in a wide variety of pretreatment applications. Technietch D-688TC ensures an excellent surface preparation with an optimum copper topography leading to improved performance of subse- quent processes (dry film, soldermask, hot air solder levelling).

Main Features

  • High copper solubility levels
  • Excellent copper topography with outstanding performance for dry film and soldermask
  • A stable etching rate with uniform copper etching
  • Tolerant of chlorides (de-ionised water not required for make-up)
  • Clear pink consistent appearance: simple AOI inspection
  • Easy effluent disposal: contains no chelating agents
  • Environmentally friendly with simple waste treatment
