Best Practices for Dow Dowsil SE 9157 Conformal Coating

*See Terms of Use Below
1. Application
  
  Repairability: In the manufacture of PCB system assemblies, it is often desirable to salvage or reclaim damaged or defective units. Dow conformal coatings offer excellent repairability because they can be removed from substrates and circuitry by scraping or cutting, or by using solvents or stripping agents. If only one circuit component is to be replaced, a soldering iron may be applied directly through the coating to remove the component. After the circuit board has been repaired, the area should be cleaned by brushing or by using solvent, then dried and recoated. Heat cure coatings can be repaired with RTV coatings, but heat cure coatings may not work well when used to repair RTV coatings.
2. Curing
  
  Time to cure is dependent on several variables including the method of application, film thickness, temperature and humidity. Tack-free time in the data table gives an indication of typical times until surface is dry enough to handle. Cure time for full cure are indications of time needed to develop full physical properties such as durometer, tensile strength or adhesion. These times, including full cure time, can be significantly improved by introducing mild heat of 60°C or less.
