Fine-L-Kote FL 1700, Fluorinated Coating, 2.0% fluorinated polymer, Bottle

The Chemtronics 23170-G Fine-L-Kote™ FL are an assortment of fluorinated polymer conformal coatings in a low surface tension, low GWP hydrofluoroether (HFE) solvent. They form highly repellant lightweight, thin films, protecting printed circuit boards (PCB) and electronic components against moisture, chemicals and corrosion. They are very easy to apply and very stable. Films are both highly hydrophobic and highly oleophobic, repelling oils, silicones and most solvents. Films provide anti-stiction, anti-migration, anti-wetting, anti-corrosive properties.

The HFE carrier solvent is non-ozone depleting, low in toxicity, RoHS compliant and VOC exempt per U.S. EPA. The low surface tension provides excellent surface wetting especially low standoff and fine pitch components.

Features & Applications:

• Engineered to protect printed circuit boards and electronic components from moisture and corrosion
• Features low surface energy, allowing lubricants, silicones, photoresist solutions, and other substances to bead and drain off coated surfaces easily
• Offers repellency and anti-wetting protection against liquids, including water, hydrocarbons, silicones, and photoresists
• Provides defense against corrosive gases and vapors as well as liquids
• Capable of withstanding temperatures up to 175°C (347°F) for 24 hours while retaining repellency
• Bonds effectively to a wide range of materials, including metals, glass, ceramics, polymers, composites, and laminates
• Thermally and electrically stable with excellent dielectric properties
• Simple to apply, drying quickly without the need for post-application curing
• Exceptional surface wetting, particularly under low-clearance SMT components
• Non-flammable, non-ozone-depleting, and has low toxicity
• Low global warming potential (GWP), RoHS compliant, and exempt from volatile organic compound (VOC) regulations (per the U.S. EPA)
