Abstract:
A liner (92) for contamination control in a reflow oven, which reflow oven has surfaces, includes a substrate (94) having a length and a width defining an area. The substrate (94) has a thickness defined by first and second sides. An adhesive is positioned on the first side of the substrate (94). The substrate (94) is removably adhered to the surfaces of the reflow oven, and the liner (92) is configured to accumulate solder reflow contaminants thereon or to repel solder flux vapors and/or fumes, and is configured for removal from the surfaces with any accumulated contaminants. A method of treating the surfaces of a reflow oven is also disclosed.
