Posted by Sean Horn on Fri, May 29, 2020

At Diamond MT we often get the question: “Can my xxx be parylene coated?”  The number of substrate surfaces that can be coated with parylene is plenty. In the table below a number of industrial applications that using Parylene conformal coatings are listed. The examples can be extended.

Conformal Coating Applications: Liquid vs Parylene

Posted by Sean Horn on Fri, Jan 19, 2018

Conformal coating of an object occurs when an appropriate coating material is applied on-top and around an underlying substrate, to protect it from such environmental and performance concerns as chemical incursion and excess moisture. Liquid organic polymer conformal coatings – acrylic, epoxy, silicone and urethane – prevent:

Protecting Solar Panel Electronics with Parylene

Posted by Sean Horn on Fri, Apr 28, 2017

Like any other renewable energy technology, electronics for solar (photovoltaic) panels are necessary for transforming, transmitting, and monitoring the system.  Unfortunately, system electronics can be fragile, and frequently are the panel’s weakest link.  Converting the sun’s light to electricity, solar panels have demonstrated their utility in numerous operational contexts.  The basic op
