CytoPel PC is low viscosity, low surface energy solution of a coating with a UV-tracer. This coating is designed for moisture and corrosion protection of printed circuit boards, semiconductor chips, and other electronic devices. CytoPel dries to a thin, transparent, permanent film with great hydrophobic and oleophobic properties. This conformal coating is easy to apply, non-flammable, low in toxicity, non-ozone depleting and RoHS compliant. This version of CytoPel has a UV-tracer for quality control inspection of coated parts. Thin films (100 - 200 nanometers) dry in a few minutes at room temperature to a surface energy of about 10 dynes/cm. This thin film coating will provide a water contact angle over 105° and a mineral oil contact angle over 60°. Application methods for CytoPel include dipping, brushing, wiping, spraying, etc. CytoPel 2704-PC (4% concentration) and CytoPel 2708-PC (8% concentration) are good replacements for Novec 2704 and Novec 2708, respectively. Please contact Cytonix for help with custom formulations or with any questions.
