Steve:
Good guess that moisture , or a process chemistry was left along
the edges of the circuits. Some other possible causes are:
Excessive undercut causing entrained air along circuits.
Improper mixing of mask components ( entraining air)
Excessive squeegee speed
Improper drying ( heating to fast causing solvent to Boil)
Coating technique would have a major impact in the root cause.
NO matter what the cause , there can't be much in the way of
inspection and process controls at the supplier.

Hi all!
We just got some boards in at receiving inspection that have thousands of
little "bubbles" in the soldermask all over the boards...they seem to
concentrate all along the edges of the features of the board. You can see
pictures of it at:
http://www.driveway.com/share?sid=e25a88c4.8e904&name=Pictures
One picture is bubblemask.jpg, the other is bubblemask2.jpg...what would
cause that? It's a LPI...don't know the brand name. I'm thinking that either
the boards weren't dry or cleaned well prior to soldermasking them. I'm
rejecting the boards of course...
My freedrive is filling up fast with all the pictures of the "pretty boards"
that we get from our vendors!!!
