Conformal Coatings

Repairability and Component Replacement

Circuits coated with silicone conformal coatings may be repaired.  This provides silicones with an advantage over many of the competitive coating options.

After removing the coating using solvent-swell or mechanical abrasion techniques, the defective device can be de-soldered and removed.  Standard burn-through techniques can also be used.

After removing the old solder, the area should be thoroughly cleaned with a solvent-soaked swab to ensure a good replacement joint.

After component installation, re-coating can be accomplished.
