A conformal coating is a thin polymeric layer that is applied to a printed circuit board (PCB) to secure it and its components from corrosion and the environment. These coatings conform to the irregular landscape of the printed circuit board and offer increased operational integrity, dielectric resistance, and reliability. The main types of conformal coatings are acrylic, silicone, epoxy, urethane, and perylene. Acrylic is a cross-linking system that ensures the adhesion of coatings or paints made from acrylic resin. Acrylic paints are usable in organic solvent-borne, waterborne, powder, and radiation-curable formulations. They're also used in architectural and decorative finishes, as well as to coat industrial products. Silicone conformal coatings provide good chemical resistance, moisture resistance, and salt spray resistance, are very flexible, and are commonly used in high-humidity environments. Epoxy conformal coatings provide very good humidity resistance, are not generally permeable, and are common in potting compounds. Urethane conformal coatings offer excellent moisture and chemical resistance and are commonly specified for aerospace applications where exposure to fuel vapours is a common concern. Parylene conformal coatings are applied by vapour phase deposition and offer excellent dielectric strength and superior resistance to moisture, solvents, and extreme temperatures. The technologies involved in conformal coatings are water-based, solvent-based, UV-cured, and operate in different methods such as dip coating, brush coating, spray coating, and chemical vapour deposition. It is implemented in different verticals such as automotive, consumer electronics, aerospace and defense, industrial, and telecommunications.
