Conformal coatings are designed to protect printed circuit boards and related equipment from their environment. Typically applied at 25-75μm, these coatings ‘conform’ to the contours of the board allowing for excellent protection and coverage, ultimately extending the working life of the PCB.

The range of products currently available comprises acrylics, silicones, polyurethanes, hybrid chemistries and environmentally friendly options.
Electrolube can offer both transparent and pigmented coatings to improve or camouflage the appearance of printed circuit boards. The range also includes a number of ancillary products to complement the use of our conformal coatings, including thinners and removers, peelable coating masks and thixotropic materials for dam and fill applications.
Electrolubes Conformal Coatings Technical Director Phil Kinner recently wrote a micro e-book on conformal coatings for harsh environments. It’s a great little insight into the selection, implementation and testing of protective coating process.

2K550
Two Part Conformal Coating
5 Litre
Product code: Part A Code*: E2K550A5L
2K550 is a flame-retardant, solvent-free two-part polyurethane conformal coating. It has been carefully formulated to combine the protection and properties of an encapsulation resin, while keeping the ease of application of a conformal coating. 2K550 is formulated for application using specially designed applicators from both PVA (VPX-2KS) and Nordson Asymtek (Latest in the AM Range) selective coating machines. 2K550 is applied more thickly than the average coating (150-350μm) providing excellent coverage over component leads and packages, while its extreme flexibility prevents cracking during thermal shock testing.
As with 2K500, 2K550 offers additional abrasion resistance compared to the other 2K range.
As with the other 2K range of conformal coatings 2K550 is a hydrophobic coating which gives improved humidity and moisture protection, including salt mist, making it an excellent choice for automotive electronics as well as other tough outdoor applications.
*Two Part System requires 2K550 as Part A and 2KPB01L as Part B, please refer to the product TDS for recommended mix ratios.
