Printed circuit boards (PCBs) form the foundation for electronics in automotive, consumer electronics, communications and industrial and energy applications. Yet these PCBs are often exposed to damaging environmental factors, ranging from moisture, dust and harsh chemicals to extreme thermal cycling and vibration.
Formulated from tough but flexible silicone technology, Miller-Stephenson’s MS-460H Silicone Conformal Coatings promote extended service life and enhanced reliability for your PCB components and assemblies. Our industry-leading solutions have delivered proven protection for decades against moisture, service environment and a variety of harsh operating conditions includinga wide range of temperatures – from -45°C to 200°C. An additional benefit of silicone conformal coating is its excellent moisture protection. Silicones have been used in cases where there were extreme temperature differences, which resulted in excessive moisture. Other conformal coatings failed within hours or days, while silicone, especially when applied thickly, has been proven to succeed. One particular application was for electronically controlled heaters developed for artic temperatures.
Silicone Conformal Coatings Performance
After cure, Miller-Stephenson’s Silicone Conformal Coatings deliver dependable, long-lasting protection. Their natural elasticity also helps minimize mechanical or thermal stress on delicate component leads. Additional select grades deliver tougher, more abrasion resistant coatings ideally suited for electronic printed wiring board applications.

Silicone Conformal Coating dries in approximately one hour and completely cures within 72 hours after coating. A good cure for a working environment requires 24 hours at 77oF/25oC and 50% relative humidity. Higher humidity and temperature will result in a faster cure. The coating can be cured in 30 minutes at 168oF/75oC or in 15 minutes at 302oF/150oC in an air circulating oven.
