Good morning Jamie. I work at a CM and can offer some input on process flexability. I do not have any data on how reliable the coating is but I can say that they are both very difficult to control. Will you be selective coating or full coating? Ho

I agree with the two other replies. Left alone, it is a defect. If it's just excess adhesive or coating, you can use IPC-7711/7721 'Rework, Modification and Repair of Electronic Assemblies' for guidance on removing. Section 2.3.1 explains how to te

Humiseal probably won't work as most of them are solvent based or require pretty high temp cures. MicroCoat technologies manufacturers UV cure epoxy conformal coating materials that have been used to coat just about anythin (except the green fog) Cal

Hi Dave, I read the same article as you. But that method leaves solder balls in via holes or traces of it remains on the boards. I am using ultrasonic with solvent for cleaning misprint boards. Apprarently, they have adverse affect to the en

Yep fully functional and failed during the test. 25 to 55C in 3 hour hold for 9 hours then 55C to 25C in 3 hours hold for 9 hours then repeat. Humidity at 95 percent! Boards only part conformally coated. Growth with and without the coating. seems to

Is there a reason you're considering bead-blasting the conformal coating? It seems like a bit of overkill. Most of the cc that I've used over the years either has a solvent that will dissolve it, or will dissolve with heat. Heat has been our go-to

One of the requirements for our components and PCBs is fluid compatibility. They are tested by a 30 second immersion in the applicable solvent/cleaner/fluid, then they are tested for functionality and degradation.

arent there environmentally friendly solvents (i have seen some from 3M) that can be used in a vapor degreaser. i was also planning to use the vapor degreaser to clean boards prior to conformal coating
