✦ Synopsis

This coating is intended for use on complex semiconductor components where it can potentially enhance performance. It can be applied to elastomeric, thermoplastic or metal substrates and can help reduce friction and wear. The coating is deposited on component surfaces in a low-temperature environment, allowing the coating of delicate structures, nonplanar surfaces and temperature-sensitive materials. It has good adhesion, high purity and high conformality, thereby reducing the friction or sticking force between two components. Test results indicate that reductions of up to 70% are possible. Coating thickness can vary from 1 to 10 μm depending on whether the material is a solid substrate or flexible such as elastomer.
