SCS LED Coatings: Optically clear protection ensures long-life performance.

For every LED application, there’s often a harsh environment waiting to impact its long-term performance. But the temperature extremes, moisture and humidity that many LEDs face are no match for SCS coatings. In addition to their excellent moisture barrier properties, SCS ultra-thin coatings and nanocatings add minimal mass to LED components – an important factor when considering the overall weight of LED displays. While liquid coatings can be used to cover the board or for potting, SCS Parylene coatings are optically clear and can be applied directly over LEDs, ensuring they shine bright during their long performance life.

Component repair flexibility

If you need to repair a board coated by SCS, the coating can be removed through various methods depending on the coating type. Often times, areas where coating has been removed can be recoated to its original specifications. For more information, visit Conformal Coating Removal for Board and Component Repair.
