Here is a posting by P Kinner at Humiseal ... Typically, there are three main approaches to avoid coating wicking into press-fit connectors (and other keep out areas). Wicking is a phenomenon caused by a combination of low viscosity of conformal coa

I've recently been placed in control of operations of our SCS conformal coat sprayer and I must eliminate problems with wicking of humiseal 1b73 into surface mount connectors while also trying to minimize masking as much as possible. We use a 55:45

Have you always used xylene? For our 1B73 we use nothing but 73 thinner from Humiseal or PGMEA at about 50/50 depending on the humidity.

Update on 1B73 bubbles, Changed over to a mixture of Humiseal 73 thinner with coating (25 sec on Zahn 2) observed a reduction in bubble formation (approx. 20%) but still present.

We're using the 1B73LOC conformal coating from Humiseal. We've seen some bubbling of the coating. Their tech handbook suggested reducing our oven ramp speed. Does anyone have a good profile for this? They've always pointed me to Nordson, and Nord

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

Hey all, we will be starting to coat our PCB's soon. I am looking for info on what type of UV light is needed to inspect the boards. We will be using Humiseal 1B73 Acrylic coating. TIA, JD

It's weird that it would be just 0805. When we see this it relates to a single part number and it goes way after a time. We use a Humiseal 1B73. I've emailed you the contact for a person that is very knowledgeable on conformal coatings.

Try Ellsworth Adhesives. We have good luck with them getting 1B73 in here fast on most occasions. www.ellsworth.com ...and no I dont work for them or know anyone who does!
