Added: (Thu Mar 30 2023)
Pressbox (Press Release) -
SAN DIEGO, Calif. (March 27, 2023)- 3M recently announced their intended departure from this sector and have recently accelerated those plans as it relates to discontinuing the engineered coatings. Aculon®, a leading supplier of electronic protection coatings, has extended its award-winning line of NanoProof® PCB Waterproofing coatings to offer the NanoProof® 3 series as direct replacements for the following 3M™ Novec™ products - 1700, 1900, and 2700 series to 3M customers.
The NanoProof® 3 series provides up to IPX5 level protection to PCBs and electronic components. This liquid-phase coating series utilizes proprietary polymer technology to achieve dust and water protection across many substrates on a PCB. The NanoProof® 3 series features flexible application methods including spray, dip, and dispensing, with no cure requirement as well as quick processing times, improved yields and reduced equipment costs.
“We are happy to use our expertise and over 15 years of electronics coating experience to support customers of 3M's Novec Electronic Grade coatings line transition by providing “drop in” replacement coatings as 3M exits the business. Our goal is to make the transition as seamless as possible by offering comparable products but add some additional benefits including UV tracer across the whole line and better pricing in many cases.” said Edward Hughes CEO of Aculon Inc.
The NanoProof® 3 series is scaled up for production, and we are actively signing up distributors of 3M’s Novec Grade coatings around the world so that together we can meet the needs of existing Novec engineered coatings customers.
