"Polymide Films absorb a great deal of moisture. Polymide laminates must be baked at more than 1 hour at 100'C or better for a double sided PWB prior to exposing the laminate to elevated temperatures such as that required for soldering. Moisture abso

| We have some PCB�s in our warehouse in Manaus - Brazil. They are stored for more than 2 years , in a condition of 25 degrees centigrades and a humidity ranging from 60% to 90%. | Do these conditions cause the PCB�s to deteriorate over time? If so ,

@ProcEng1 Yea. Mostly is ENIG surface finished PCB. Sometimes there is OSP board faces issues like part shortages and is forced to hold the production and resume the second process after a few days. So, would like to know any special control on keepi

We test for board cleanliness using an ionic tester. It's been my experience that if your board is clean you take away the possibility of growth even if the unit encounters moisture. We actaully had a problem where our wash lost pressure due to a mi

Hi System Steve, What is a solvent cleaner over water wash? Solvent first and then rinse with water? And why do they feel the need to bake the boards? Do they think trapped moisture will cause board damage?

HI, I believe that the problem is moisture in the boards. You should bake the boards in oven for 24hours or so and then run them.

We have seen this exact same problem. Our vendor agreed it was their problem and also agreed it was a moisture issue within the PCB layers, not the solder mask. We have taken to baking our boards, especially when they are manufactured during the late

Guys, We have experienced some delamination on 3 of 45 boards so far.(not exactly delamination yet but a gathering of moisture is evident is certain areas). We have the build on hold while we sort it out with the supplier. We are running a Leadfree

Delamination almost always is caused by moisture in the PCB. You can try to keep some of the PCBs in a dry box after recieving them. You can also slowly heat them up to bake out moisture. If you are purchasing boards form overseas form a board house
