May 29, 2019 (Indianapolis, IN) – Specialty Coating Systems (SCS) is pleased to announce that the Surface Mount Technology Association (SMTA) China awarded Dr. Rakesh Kumar, VP of Technology, “The Best Presentation of Technology” for his presentation at the SMTA China East Vendor Conference.

Dr. Kumar presented “A New Halogen-Free Parylene for Robust Performance of Flexible, Rigid and High-Density Electronics in Water and Other Corrosive Environments” at the conference. The conference was co-located with NEPCON China at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center from April 24-26, 2019.

At NEPCON China, SCS exhibited Parylene including its new halogen-free variant, ParyFree®.

Like other commercially-available Parylene variants, ParyFree is applied through a vapor deposition process that results in an ultra-thin, uniform, pinhole-free conformal coating. The thin film forms at a molecular level to fully encapsulate components and devices, offering complete protection and increased reliability of intricate, complex electronic devices.
