IPC invites experts in all areas of cleaning and coating for electronic assemblies to submit technical conference abstracts for the High-Reliability Cleaning and Conformal Coating Conference, presented by IPC and SMTA, to be held November 3-5, 2020 in Dallas, Texas.

The goal of this conference is to enable electronics assemblers to address cleaning and coating issues by showcasing industry knowledge covering technological developments in strategies to achieve surface reliability. This conference features technical presentations, tutorials, tabletop exhibits and networking events. Professional development courses will take place on November 3, and the technical conference will take place November 4–5.

Expert technical presentations are being sought in the following areas: 

Electrical Performance and Reliability
Cleaning Process Design
Maintaining and Monitoring the Cleaning Process
Material Choices and Compatibility
Conformal Coatings
Supply Chain Management 

An approximate 300-word technical conference abstract summarizing original and previously unpublished work covering case histories, research and discoveries must be submitted. The abstract should be technical in nature and must clearly state the topical content and benefits to the participants. Programs and presentations must be non-commercial, original work. Abstracts should include a title and short description of at least 30 words.
