In my previous company we had a potting material that would not cure unless the humidity was at least 50% and the temperature was 165F. We adapted an oven with a small humidifier bought at a local store. We later switched to a large stainless steel tray of water placed in the bottom of the oven. Both were a pain to work with and I would have much preferred an alternative. >---------- >From: ETS[SMTP:[log in to unmask]] >Reply To: "TechNet E-Mail Forum." <[log in to unmask]>,ETS >Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 1998 5:26 PM >To: [log in to unmask] >Subject: [TN] Moisture Cure for Conformal Coatings > >Hi Technetters, > >I work for a company that manufactures Ovens for curing conformal coatings >and recently we have received a few requests for ovens that can regulate the >relative humidity inside the process cavity of the oven to approximately >50%.
