Amongst the new Electrolube products exhibited at Productronica was the DCA-FD, a modified silicone conformal coating that is touch dry in 20 minutes.

Increased solids content of the DCA-FD gives 35% greater coverage per litre compared to standard DCA, to provide a significant waste and cost saving per substrate. Fast-Dry DCA has a very wide operating temperature range and is suitable for a wide range of commercial and military PCB applications, particularly in harsh, high humidity and salt-spray conditions.

DCA-FD has reduced VOC levels compared to standard DCA. It has excellent adhesion and is resistant to most solvents, lubricants and chemicals. It is also highly resistant to mould growth and UV light. The product can be sprayed, dipped or brushed, is RoHS Compliant (2002/95/EC) and meets UL746CQMJU2, DEF-STAN 59/47 (4), and IPC-CC-830 standards.
