Masking Before Conformal Coating My PCB: What Are My Options?

27/10/2024
On nearly all printed circuit boards, there are components and sections where conformal coating would not be acceptable. As clearances and tolerances shrink beneath IC packages, differences in expansion characteristics between coatings and surfaces make wicking and migration even more undesirable. The use of masking liquids and permanent gels can avoid many of the problems associated with these cases.

What is PCB Surface Energy and How Does It Affect Conformal Coating
Surface chemistry is an enormously complex and cussed branch of the sciences; consequently, we will attempt only a layman's discussion and understanding here. For the purposes of conformal coating, surface energy must be considered for both the exposed surface of the PCB as well as for the coating itself.

Unpacking the Rising Popularity of LED Curable Conformal Coatings
The transition to LED curable conformal coatings is beginning to build momentum, beginning as a slow evolution and developing into a revolution of sorts.
If you and your organization are faced with aging equipment and higher costs, there isn't a better time to consider the potential advantages of LED curable conformal coatings!

To Clean or Not To Clean Before Conformal Coating
In the days before surface mount printed circuit assemblies, components (such as resistors, diodes, and capacitors) were axial, and printed circuit board components were installed with the “through-hole” method using large conductor spacing. With the advent of integrated circuits, these too were through-hole with good spacing between legs.
