Cytec Introduces Eco-Friendly
Acrylic Conformal Coating at Productronica
Innovative conformal coating is based on proprietary acrylic
technology and a bio-derived, ecologically-friendly solvent
system
November 10, 2009 –
Munich, Germany – Cytec Engineered Materials (CEM), a business
unit of Cytec Industries Inc. (NYSE: CYT) is introducing its new
CONAP® CE-2290 conformal coating at Productronica on
November 10 13 at the New Munich Trade Fair Centre. This
unique, single-component acrylic system provides customers with
a “green” alternative for high-performance application on
components and printed circuitry.
CONAP CE-2290 achieves an exceptional level of performance
without the use of the petroleum-based or reportable solvents
typically contained in conformal coating systems. CONAP CE-2290
is free from Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPS), and the solvent
portion of CE-2290 is a US EPA-approved Significant New
Alternative Policy (SNAP) composition that is non-carcinogenic,
biodegradable and free of ozone depleting solvents. CE-2290 is
compliant to EU RoHS regulations.
CE-2290 is a repairable conformal coating that exhibits a
tack-free air drying time of five minutes at 25°C
and has been successfully applied using dip, spray and selective
coating techniques. It displays outstanding dielectric
properties and hydrolytic stability and excellent adhesion to
both PC boards and electronic components, even under adverse
environmental conditions. CEM offers a compatible solvent CONAP®
S-290 for use with the CE-2290 system. CE-2290 is MIL-I-46058C
and IPC-CC-830B qualified.
CEM’s CONAP product family includes high-quality acrylic and
polyurethane conformal coatings and polyurethane and epoxy
potting, encapsulation and adhesive systems used in aerospace,
biomedical, electronics, electrical and automotive applications.
Productronica attendees can learn more about CE-2290 and the
entire CONAP line of formulated systems at the Cytec Engineered
Materials booth located in Hall A4, Stand 217. In addition,
