Conformal Coating - CD Photo Album

The use of Conformal Coating has provided benefits to industry for many years either in the high reliability market sector or where products have to deal with extreme environmental conditions. In recent years due to changes in technology and miniaturization, coatings are also being used in consumer applications.

A photo CD-ROM album featuring over 290 colour images helps engineers create their own training material, PowerPoint files, process documents and standards. The photo CD covers many of the defects listed below and is one of over 15 of photo CD-ROMs created by Bob Willis. The photographs can also be used in marketing and advertising material or in technical articles provided the source is credited. They can be simply pasted into any Word or PowerPoint document for in-house company use. Photographs are provided in either .Tiff, or .jpg, file format. The images are not all one resolution but a mixture of high and low resolution.
