The PCB green mask will become darker after few times IR reflow? What is the reason? Any acceptance spec refer to green mask requirement? Any method to measure the color level for PCB green mask? By naked eye or machine?

konrad, Here are a couple of things that can affect color. 1) Material color is the major, 2) Matte green from Enthone would be different in shad than Matte green from Taiyo. 3) Solder mask is two parts, One the green mask, two the hardner, having t

I did not change my mind, I just said that we sat down with the manufacturer and showed them the 3-4 different color PCBs for one product. They agreed that it is not acceptable... and supply us only from one of their sites. (the different manufacturi

Hi Konrad, Nothing is ever Clearly one persons issue. Color differences could be caused by many things. 1) Being the solder mask is a two part mix, there is never a 100% guarantee that the color will be the same from lot to lot. 2)the Manufactur

It could be lots of things. You're not helping to narrow those alternatives. So, consider taking a sample to: * An analytical laboratory. * Teachers in the chemistry department at a local university. Kester recommends the following independent la

Hello Mike You'll have to be a bit more specific. Do you mean permanent solder mask like the normally green material or a temporary mask like the peelable/washable material? John Thorup

thanks for the post... but are you sure that the type of mask i mentioned is photoimageable and as i understood can be removed from desired places (pads/soldering areas) using uv and developer (which i don't know what material is it). and also the

actually this is my little problem, i don't know about the material except that it comes in a paste form and it has to be diluted with acetone and it has a green color. i wish that the compounds used to make a solder mask aren't that numerous to be d

hi i'm not experienced in creating pcbs but i have good background, and i have a bunch of questions. i have no access to world wide known pcb chemicals but i managed to get a cramolin positiv spray and i don't know if it is still usable or not? (di
