History of Parylene
Dr. WM Gorham at Union Carbide Corporation (UCC) in late 1940s Dr. Gorham announced the vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) process
Coating process that bears his name patented in 1967
Union Carbide Corporation purchased Nova Tran Corp. in 1984 Renamed Specialty Coating Systems in 1991
All coating centers use global Manufacturing Standard Procedures (MSPs) and quality standards Multiple locations enable SCS to react to changes in requirements, volume ramp-up or natural disasters
What is Parylene?
A common generic name for a unique series of polymers based on p-Xylylene POLY(PARA-XYLYLENE) A truly conformal, thin, optically clear, inert coating applied in a vacuum chamber at room temperature A non-line-of-sight coating that follows molecular level deposition process A chemically pure coating that does not use any catalysts or leachable materials
Why Parylene?
Completely conformal Ultra-thin and lightweight Free from pinholes and defects Moisture & chemical barrier High dielectric strength Chemical insolubility Dry film lubricity Particle immobilization Hydrophobicity Optically clear colorless Biocompatible and biostable Chemically pure, inert and free of catalytic, plasticizer and solvent residues No outgassing No leachable ingredients No cure forces/stresses Environmentally friendly No thermal stresses during room temperature deposition

Parylene Deposition
Film grows one molecule at a time Coating thickness is controllable
- 500 angstroms to 75 microns
Coating thickness is based on dimer quantity and chamber load Nominal coating rate is 5 microns/hour
17
Parylene Deposition
No cure forces
No thermal reactions No expansion or contraction
No liquid phase
No meniscus, no edge effects Nothing to leach or outgas
