Ken,

I'm not aware of any industry standard or specification; however,
supplier recommendations are available, typically our laminate suppliers
recommend a 200f at 30 - 45 minutes. This is handled after wet
processing in our tunnel oven (post solder mask application) I would
think product would not typically have a concernable amount of moisture
directly from the fabricator unless they have something seriously wrong
with their processes, this is only an opinion.

We recommend to all our customers should the product remain on their
stock shelf or in high humidity environment for periods longer than a
month they should bake them prior to their assembly process.

Hope this helps.

Franklin
