Q1: Can they be masked so parylene doesn't get underneath? A1: Your parylene applyer may be able to mask area, but in general no. This stuff is cured in a vacuum chamber to make sure that it gets into every past corner. Q2: How do you remove and re

... continuing with Q2: How do you remove and replace? A2: Belt sander, sand blasting, grinding wheel, etc. Parylene/Paraxylyene is a great coating and can be selectively removed by several methods. The IPC-7711 (Rework of Electronic Assemblies)

We regularly strip conformal coating for military customers. Connector removal is not required. The type of coating is the biggest factor. Acrylics and silicones are easy and will come off nicely without any other damage. Epoxy and fully cured polyur

There maybe multiple drivers to your problems. * First, decreasing bond quality with time indicates a plating issue. What's the actual thickness of your gold and nickel on the pads? * Second, the no-sticks indicate contamination. If it's organic, p

Dave Frankly, I think you may be barking up the wrong tree. Like DaveF, I suggest that the process would be horrendously expensive with masking and so on. The $64,000 question is whether what you propose will serve any useful purpose. I venture to

PWB Bake out or other elevated temperture processes can cause issues with oxidation of that Nickel layer. The gold porosity can vary from batch to batch, but also process changes can contribute. Are you baking the boards or have previous reflow pro
