It is critical to sustainably remove all manufacturing contaminants during printed circuit board assembly to ensure the proper adhesion of conformal coatings.
Contaminated printed circuit board assemblies can lead to poor performance. Oils and flux residue can prevent proper adhesion of conformal coatings, while marking inks, adhesives, and other materials can cause PCB delamination, blistering, shorting, dendrite growth, and electrochemical migration. It is therefore critical to remove all leftover manufacturing contaminants and to do it in an environmentally sustainable way.
Generally speaking, the hand dispensing of resins in prototypes is not a complicated process. Optimizing several factors will aid in the development of a transparent commercialization process, with straightforward resin dispensing and industrial dispensing equipment selection, all completed in an expedited timeframe.
LATICRETE recently launched TRI-LITE™ Rapid, a rapid adhesive mortar that reportedly meets ANSI A118.15 and contains no respirable crystalline silica levels that exceed the OSHA action level.
In line with the expectations of the Paris Agreement, Arkema has set a target, based on a science-based target (SBT) approach, to reduce its scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and its scope 3 emissions by 46% by 2030 relative to 2019.
A supplier of packaging technologies for adhesive and sealant manufacturers is integrating sustainability into its product development process.
