-- [ From: Tony Bugeja * EMC.Ver #2.5.02 ] -- At my previous company we used a Thermotron with humidity for curing Silicon 3140 on 6x9 PCBA's, this reduced the cycle time for cure in half. 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% . While researching this application we have found that the moisture cure is needed for some silicon coatings to activate or accelerate the cure. What I am wondering is how much need their is in this market for such a system. I don't think any other oven manufacturers offer such a system so I am wondering what other people in the industry are currently doing to meet this RH Requirement? Are they using a normal oven and modifying it somehow to meet these needs or ??? If you are currently using a moisture cure conformal coating or are a manufacturer of conformal coatings I would love your imput.
