It may be time to upgrade your protective coatings

 
In the fast-paced world of electronics, ensuring the reliability and longevity of electronic components, especially Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), is of utmost importance. Traditional protection methods, while providing a certain level of protection, have their limitations of non-reworkability, unpleasant odors, and protracted curing times. If you're facing these challenges, it may be time to upgrade your protective coatings. 
 
 
Nanocoating solutions are at the forefront of advancements, offering a shield against humidity, moisture, harmful gasses, and EMI/EMF interference. With thickness ranges from a few tens to a few hundreds of nanometers, these ultra-thin layers are designed to enhance PCB protection and ensure the longevity of electronic devices.
 
Key Benefits of Nanocoatings
• Extremely quick dry times
• No Masking Required
• Allows Reworkability on PCBs
• Non-Toxic / Low Odor
• Fraction of Cost & Easy To Apply
• Increase Product Lifecycle
• Self-Healing Coating Integration
 
Applications of Nanocoatings
These advanced coating solutions can be used for all electronic devices, components, and sensors. Nanocoatings find a diverse range of applications across various industries due to their unique properties and capabilities: 
 
• Consumer Electronics
• Automotive Electronics
• Defense & Aerospace Electronics
• Medical Devices
• Smart City and IoT Electronics
 
Feature Products
 
The Aculon NanoProof 3 series provides up to IPX5 level protection to PCBs and electronic components. This liquid-phase coating series utilizes proprietary polymer technology to achieve anti-wetting, anti-stiction, chemical protection, corrosion protection, and moisture protection across many substrates on a PCB.
 
 
NanoflowX nanocoating solutions can fully weatherize all electronic devices to protect against humidity, moisture, harmful gasses, EMI/EMF interference and are tested up to IP68 water and dust resistance. NanoFlowX also provides liquid cooling solutions and should be considered as an option to 3M Novec.
 
 
There are many methods to apply nanocoating including dipping, spraying, and dispensing. The choice of coating depends on the specific requirements of the application and the type of protection, contact our engineering sales representatives to help find the right choice for your application needs.
