A flux for soldering includes a base resin, a solvent, and an activating agent. The base resin contains a rosin. An amount of the rosin to be incorporated is from 0% by weight to 30% by weight with respect to a total amount of the base resin. The activating agent includes a compound having a plurality of carboxyl groups on a cyclohexyl structure represented by a general formula (1). n n n n n n n n n n X is (a) one or more carboxyl groups, or (b) one or more carboxyl groups and at least one selected from a hydrogen atom, chloro group, bromo group, alkyl group, and cyclohexyl group. A position of the X is not limited. A number of the X is one or more. The X may have either one of the (a) and (b) alone, or a plurality of the (a) and (b) in combination. |
