Alternatives are: * DSCC Columbus continues to maintain the QPL for MIL-I-46058C. [Engineering is unlikely to change.] * Use International Electrotechnical Commission Standard, IEC 61086 - Coatings for loaded printed wire boards (conformal coatings)

Does anyone know, what causes the orange peel affect when spraying pcbs with conformal coating ? Are there ways of minimising or eliminating this ? Is is possible to achieve a glass like finish ? if so how Thanks Sam

Many companies use IPC-CC-830B as a replacement for the deactivated MIL-I-46058 conformal coating standard.

All the pumps, chimneys, innards, and what-not need to be coated in addition to the pot, eh? Many equipment suppliers have "trade-in" deals to swap original pot assemblies with remanufacturered lead-free pot assemblies.

We have PVA 350 benchtop dispensing equipement with humiseal 1A33 CC material. is there any moisture measurement process in conformal coating material?

Humiseal says, "UV cure – These materials are also more difficult to repair as they are the most chemically resistant and mechanically tough of all conformal coatings. Removal is possible locally by using powder abrasion."

I am having a problem with Entek coated boards. The solder past seem to just ball up on the pads. I had no problems with the board when it was hot air leveled. The board is double sided surface mount. I have tried adjusting the oven profiles makin

You should be able to obtain a smooth finish. A "glass-like finish" is in part a function of the coating material, assuming good process. When we see "orange peel" conformal coating, we think moisture from the spray room environment, conpressor, et

The good old days weren't all that bad. When I needed to have a specification callout for a conformal coating on an engineering drawing, I just used MIL-I-46058, type UR (for example), and the drawing checkers were quite happy. Since MIL-I-46058 ha

The Type we predominntely use is Acrylic, but we also get this problem when we use silicone or urethane. Sam.
