Managing Parylene Adhesion

Posted by Sean Horn on Tue, Sep 10, 2013

It is imperative to obtain proper adhesion of the coating to the substrate in order to truly reap the benefits of parylene conformal coating. Poor parylene adhesion, after all, can negate some of parylene’s most-prized properties, including corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, moisture resistance, and dielectric strength. So, it’s in an engineer’s best interest to understan

Parylene vs Acrylic Conformal Coatings

Parylene and acrylic resins are both conformal coatings.  Most of the similarities stop there.  Because their properties vary so much, they have their own unique uses and capabilities.

What is the maximum object size for parylene coating?

People often wonder if their project can be parylene coated.  While there are huge list of items that can be coated with parylene, there are some limitations.  One of these limitations is size.
