by The conformal coating stripper is a chemical product that is used to remove conformal coatings from printed circuit boards during rework processes or repairs. Conformal coatings are applied to printed circuit boards and other electronics components to protect them from various environmental factors such as moisture, dust, chemicals, and mechanical impacts. Some key advantages of using conformal coating strippers include their ability to quickly and efficiently remove conformal coatings without causing any damage to the underlying surfaces. They also reduce the manual labor involved in stripping conformal coatings.
The global conformal coating stripper market is estimated to be valued at US$ 11.72 Mn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.2% over the forecast period of 2024-2031, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends: One of the key trends in the conformal coating stripper market is the increasing demand from consumer electronics industry. Consumer electronics such as smartphones, televisions, washing machines etc. extensively use printed circuit boards that require protection from moisture, chemicals and mechanical impacts. This is driving the demand for conformal coatings and their strippers. Additionally, the growing miniaturization of electronic components has increased the complexity of circuit boards, necessitating the need for more effective yet gentle stripping solutions for conformal coatings. Conformal coating stripper manufacturers are hence focusing on developing stripping formulations that can selectively remove coatings without causing damage to finer circuit traces and components.
Porter’s Analysis
