UV-Cure Touchup and Parylene Coating

Posted by Sean Horn on Fri, Mar 25, 2016

A photochemical process used to preserve conformal coatings, adhesives, and inks, UV curing generates a variety of value-added properties in comparison to conventional curing techniques.  Applying high-intensity UV light to dry (cure) coatings or other substances, UV curing can provide instant results, increasing production speed while reducing the need for and number of typical set-up […]

6 Conformal Coating Defects (And How to Best Avoid Them)

Posted by Sean Horn on Fri, Mar 18, 2016

Conformal coatings are polymeric materials used to protect circuitry, parts, and related components. They are most commonly used to protect printed circuit boards (PCBs) and electronic devices.

Surface Treatments Prior to Parylene Coating

Posted by Sean Horn on Fri, Mar 11, 2016

Pre-coating Essentials Poor parylene adhesion negates many of the coating’s most-valued functional properties, including dielectric strength, and resistance to the effects of chemicals, corrosive agents, and moisture.  Surface treatments that amplify the interface adhesion between the deposited parylene and the coated substrate are therefore highly desirable.  These treatments entail depositin
