Challenges in PCBA Cleaning and Coatings

In the drive for smaller, more densely populated PCBAs, the margin for error in environmental protection has vanished. While many manufacturers view cleaning and conformal coating as independent steps, the reality is that they are two halves of a single reliability equation. Applying world-class coating over "no clean" residues is a recipe for delamination, osmotic blistering, and electrochemical migration. In this session, we explore the technical synergy between surface energy and coating adhesion. We will discuss why surface preparation is the most critical variable in coating success and how to navigate the transition from traditional methods.
