WESTMORELAND, N.H. — June 1, 2005 — Polyonics
Inc. announces that its XF-581 (1 mil) and
XF-582 (2 mil) thermal transfer printable
white Kapton®
label stocks were provided to Zestron America for compatibility tests
with Zestron’s high precision cleaning agents: VIGON® water-based
agents and ZESTRON® solvent-based agents.
Both kapton®
label materials were tested before and after reflowing various printed
circuit boards (PCB). In all cases, the print on the polyimide label
remained clear with no visible effects.
Polyonics
XF-581 and XF-582 are lead free kapton label
materials coated with a permanent pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive
and a high opacity, medium gloss white topcoat specifically designed
for thermal transfer printing. Barcode labels made from XF-581 and
XF-582 Kapton polyimide label material demonstrate excellent performance
in lead-free wave solder environments, which range from 260º
to 290ºC.
XF-581
and XF-582 Kapton label materials
are designed for barcode or alphanumeric identification of PCBs
or related electronic components. They are the ideal labels to withstand
mixed circuit board processes, on either the top or bottom side
of the board. Additionally, the label materials have excellent resistance
to harsh fluxes, cleaning agents, saponifiers and wave solder environments,
and resist all commonly used methods of cleaning.
Zestron
America is a leading global supplier of cleaning agents and
processes. Zestron cleaning agents have been specifically designed
to remove post-solder flux residues and SMT adhesives as well as
misprinted solder pastes during and after the main PCB manufacturing
processes.
