Re: item 3 - there are ultrasonic thickness machines (Panametrics makes one) that can measure coating dry with a small transducer head. A little pricey for ones that measure reliably in the .003" +/- .002" range.

Terry The SCC3 product is a vinyl modified silicone. It is less able to perform at low temps as it becomes brittle. It is not easy to repair because it is essentially silicone. It is not a qualified material to the MIL-I-46058 Spec. Are you sure yo

Hi Guys, I have few question would like to ask regarding pcb conformal coating: 1. Can I know which masking material is the best for easy apply, fast cure, fast & easy to remove after coating & baking. And no chemical reaction which will whiten the

The coating thickness is more a property of the individual coating itself. The 0.03 - 0.13 is based on average properties of acrylics in general. It's like trying to pour 3 mils of motor oil on a table. The material will find it's own thickness.

As a large coating house we use 1B73 daily and we have very few issues with bubbles. We very rarely bake it as the air cure is so short. Also, we only use thinner 73 vice 521. Another question would be; how is it being applied? How thick are you appl

@tommyg_fla According to the TDS the recommended coating thickness for Humiseal 1B31 is only 1-3 mils so if I had to guess I would say your issue might be that you're re-coating over the first pass too soon. All the solvent hasn't evaporated and the

dave, where I work they are having the same problems with 1B31 acrylic. The coating thickness is 6-8 mils dried so that have to do several passes with an air dry between them and a final oven cure. They think that it might be related to the heating r

Can you share some information relative to these questions about your conformal coating process: 1) What process controls do you use for conformal coating? 2) Do you perform manual conformal coating inspection? 3) Do you use AOI for inspecting confor

Can anyone tell me what parts on the pwb should be protected by the conformal coating, and what parts can be free of the coating (such as the areas without components, traces, brides lands)? we were follow MIL standard 2000 and IPC-A-610 class 3. Tha
