The producer has developed a polyurethane-polyacrylate hybrid UV curable polymer structure. This yields a macroscopic material performance that is not dissimilar to the ease-of-processing and thermal cycling resistance offered by other established chemical coating material types such as the Humiseal water-based ranges.
One of the key benefits of the new UV material is its low viscosity. This eases processing challenges in terms of being able to uniformly and quickly coat a board and ensure the coating spreads over all required areas. In addition, the UV material is also extremely flexible, physically, particularly in response to thermal cycling duress. This means that the coating is far less prone to the conventional cracking that can occur with all traditional UV curables.
The Humiseal UV40 range meets all ISO 14001 and major H&S/hazardous chemical regulatory requirements.
