Dave, Few questions concerning your Umiseal 1B73. To cure your Acrylic coating do you respect specification ( 2Hrs-170degree F) or you go faster than that? What do you use to cure it? Do you have to clean your nozzles each day or each monday beca

We: * Cure 1B73 according to spec in a heat box, like a Blue-M * Clean nozzles [one set in use, one set being cleaned] in thinner in a bronson ultrasonic cleaner * Haven't evaluated coatings in years, but would do it according to J-STD-001C, Reqmnts

A while ago I tried using rubber boots for masking but couldn't get them to work because the coating we use (Humiseal 1B73) is so thin it leaches under the rubber. If you can get them to work with your application more power to ya.

Once the HumiSeal conformal coating has been applied to the printed circuit board it is usually best to allow the material to reach a touch-dry stage, before heating the board to accelerate the cure schedule. This avoids potential problems such as bu

Humiseal recommends a 1 to 1 mix ratio of 1B31 and Thinner 521. I have for that I need to thin my ratio more to get humiseal to spray correctly in our PVA650. Also I am using Humiseal 1B73 but the tech data sheets say the same for spraying. Try thinn

Hi sforman1, The chemical that i'm using is a solvent based coating humiseal 1B73. From my understanding,the UV curing is mainly for UV curable coating like the UV40. And the main advantage of using UV curing is for fast throughput and environment

My guess would be that the adhesive used on the dots contains silicone. We use 1B73 which is also acrylic and it hates silicone. We use silicone RTV to permanently mask around some connectors and unless its fully cured before coating it will cause l

That has also been the standard here. We have a urethane line which pulls a vacuum on the mixture before transfering to the can. I plan on testing this out before receipt of the 73 thinner. I've also received some feedback with indication that the mi

I use Trace and certainly recommend them. I actually just had this test done last week. Adhesion test per ASTM-3359 Method B. We use Humiseal 1B73, which is similar to what you use. Is your soldermask "active" enough for this coating? I believe

Has anyone found a durable, indelible inspection stamp ink? We have an extreme case of smearing/obliteration because we have the boards dip coated (Humiseal 1B73). The manufacturer of our stamps is zero help, i.e., the best I could get out of them
