Key Highlights

Key Features

• Easy application and processing – dries in seconds without the need for postapplication curing.
• Can be easily removed for rework and repair using 3M™ Novec™ Engineered Fluids.
• Is UV detectable for easy identification of coating and quality control.
• Allows solder-through repairability.
• Contains less than 1% volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and has low global warming potential.
• Is thermally and electrically stable with good dielectric properties.
• Adheres to a variety of materials (metals, glass, ceramics, polymers, composites, laminates).
• Provides excellent repellency, antiwetting and anti-sticking properties against liquids – water, hydrocarbons, silicones, and photoresists.
• Is insoluble in solvents such as heptanes, toluene and water.
• The polymer can endure up to 175°C for 24 hours and maintain repellency.
• Has low surface energy which allows lubricating oils, silicones, photoresist solutions, etc. to bead and drain freely from coated surfaces.
• Has excellent surface wetting, especially under low standoff SMT components.
• Protects against corrosive gases and vapors in addition to liquids.

Applications

• Provides excellent moisture, chemical and corrosion protection to printed circuit boards and their components.
• Provides protection of display and touch panel components.
• Is an easy and cost-effective alternative to conformal coatings.
• Provides excellent anti-wetting, anti-stiction, anti-migration and anti-corrosion properties in many diverse applications.
• Can serve as an anti-corrosion coating for a variety of materials and components.
