  • Best Practices for Dow Dowsil 1-2577 Low VOC Conformal Coating

    *See Terms of Use Below

    1. Curing

      The time required to reach a tack-free state can be reduced with heat. When using heat for this purpose, allow adequate time for the solvent to evaporate prior to exposing to elevated temperatures in an air circulating oven. A typical cure schedule for 3 mil (75 micron) coatings is 10 minutes at room temperature, followed by 10 minutes at 60°C. If the coating blisters or contains bubbles, allow additional time at room temperature for the solvent to flash off prior to oven cure.

    2. Testing

      If a substrate or material is questionable with respect to potentially causing inhibition of cure, it is recommended that a small scale compatibility test be run to ascertain suitability in a given application. The presence of liquid or uncured product at the interface between the questionable substrate and the cured gel indicates incompatibility and inhibition of cure.
