HumiSeal® UV550: Advanced PCB Protection with UV Conformal Coating

 
Modern manufacturing processes require PCBs to meet more stringent standards, especially in automotive and consumer electronics industries. They must operate efficiently while enduring thermal cycling, mechanical shock, moisture, chemicals, and vibration. Choosing the right protective coating can address these evolving challenges and ensure your PCBs remain reliable under the harshest conditions. 

HumiSeal® UV550 LED-Curing Conformal Coating
HumiSeal® UV550 is one of the best protective coatings available today. This material is a solvent-free, UV-curable elastomeric acrylate conformal coating. This coating delivers the highest thermal and mechanical shock resistance among UV curable conformal coatings, withstanding over 1000 thermal shock cycles in standard tests without cracking. 
 
 
2. Key Features and Benefits of HumiSeal® UV550:

• Fast Curing Process: The material can be cured by LED or using an Arc or Microwave systems, significantly reducing production time and increasing throughput.
• Unmatched Flexibility: UV550's superior flexibility allows it to conform to complex board geometries and withstand thermal cycling and mechanical stress without cracking. 
• Exceptional Durability: UV550 offers excellent resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and moisture. This robust protection ensures long-term reliability in harsh operating environments, extending the lifespan of your products.
• Superior Thermal Shock Resistance: Withstanding over 1000 thermal shock cycles, this coating ensures stable performance even in extreme environments.
• Secondary Cure Mechanism: Unexposed areas of the coating will fully cure within 7 days at ambient conditions.
• Visual Coating Inspection: The coating fluoresces under UV light, allowing easy visual inspection and ensuring complete coverage.
• Consistent Performance: Exhibits minimal yellowing after high temperature exposure.
• Silicone-Free: Formulated without silicone.

HumiSeal® UV550 meets the following standards: 
• Compliant with RoHS Directive EU 2015/863 
• Compliant with China RoHS 2
• Compliant to China Standard GB30981-202
