SCS Debuts Adhesion Promotion Technology
August 28, 2008 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
INDIANAPOLIS Specialty Coating Systems (SCS) announced a new adhesion promotion technology, AdPro Plus, developed to improve adhesion of Parylene conformal coatings to various substrates. Strong adhesion of Parylene is critical to enable the coating to provide maximum benefit to the application.
Optimal adhesion of Parylene to a wide variety of substrates, including metal, plastic, elastomer, glass, paper, etc., is commonly achieved by a treatment with A-174 silane prior to Parylene coating. However, in some applications, materials are left behind to which Parylene coatings may not achieve optimal adhesion.
SCS VP of technology, Rakesh Kumar, Ph.D., said, "As technologies continue to advance, SCS has worked with our customers to understand the challenges they face in designing their products, including the challenge of protecting materials that are being used in these innovations." The resulting product improves adhesion to materials such as titanium, stainless steel, gold, chromium, Santoprene, polyimide, polycarbonate, and solder mask. Additionally, AdPro Plus has demonstrated improved stability at elevated temperatures, suiting harsh-environment applications.
