How Long Does Parylene Coating Last?

Posted by Sean Horn on Fri, May 22, 2020

The stability and insulation property of parylene conformal coating is critical for the reliable operation of electronic devices throughout their lifetime (PCBs, MEMS, sensors, implants and so on.). The failure mechanism of the conformal coating layers is known to be due to pore formation, blistering, delamination and thinning or pinhole formation due to dielectric breakage […]

How Can You Validate Parylene Coverage?

Posted by Sean Horn on Fri, May 15, 2020

Parylene XY is a transparent, thin (hundreds of nanometers to a few micrometers), well adhering, pin-hole and defect free conformal coating. They are coated uniformly on flat surfaces and component configurations with sharp edges, points, flat surfaces, crevices or exposed internal surfaces are coated uniformly without voids.

Conformal Coatings for Oil & Gas Sensors

Posted by Sean Horn on Fri, May 8, 2020

Oil & Gas industry makes use of sensors which face extremely high temperature and high pressure (HTHP) environments as in downhole drilling (>200°C and 30 kspi). In US natural gas supply lie in reservoirs below 15,000 ft. Wells at these depths pose environmental challenges of drilling due to the temperature, pressure and gasses. Increasing the […]
