I am using Silicone based boots with SR coating with good results. I Use Vinyl and Rubber boots with AR and UR coatings.

Amol, good call there. Silicone mask and silicone coatings are friendly with each other. This was 1995, and at the time, there were no silicone boots available on the market.

Hose and/or Dave, Please elaborate of how the silicone can affect soldering. Material itself or fumes?

NASA is concerned about outgassing in high-vacuum environments. They select materials to minimize outgassing. http://outgassing.nasa.gov/og_desc.html

Ammonia based masks can create solderability issues after they are removed. You can get non-ammonia based latex mask material but down side is slower cure and cost a little more as they have higher levels of latex etc

Unfortunately I have no information about the metal layers and the processes. I only see the effect. Is it possible or common that the nickel undercoat could have been forgotten?

Hi All, Recently we are working on the conformal coating process using Humiseal chemical 1B73 and thinner 521. Bubbles on component body/joints are seen after gone through the IR Reflow Oven. During the conformal coating, only tiny bubbles seen af

Hi The bubble shows only around component body after ir reflow. I think bubble means that there is a moisture. How do you dry the PCB(?) before IR reflow? Thanks Ju-young.

Hi Ju Yong, The PCB are dry in an airseal cabinet(Staging Chamber) before IR Oven. The bubbles show at around body and solder joint area. You mean the moisture will create bubbles ? Able to advice the humidity and temperature that you are using in
