摘要:
Methods for protecting an electronic device from contaminants by applying different polymeric materials to different vital components of a device are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises applying a first polymer, such as an acrylic-based polymer, to one or more connectors and components located on the printed circuit board of the device. The method further comprises applying a second polymer, such as a silicone-based polymer, to different connectors and components on the printed circuit board. The method leads to different components being coated with a different polymers, without the need for multilayer coatings on any component. Electronic devices that are protected by such polymeric, hydrophobic coatings are also disclosed. Non-limiting examples of such devices include smart phones, computers, and gaming devices.

Methods for protecting an electronic device from contaminants by applying different insulating and conducting materials to different vital components of a device are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises applying an electrically insulating material, such as isobutylene isoprene rubber, to one or more connectors and components located on the printed circuit board of the device. The method further comprises applying a polymer capable of carrying a charge, such as a silicone-based polymer, to different connectors and components on the printed circuit board. The method leads to different components being coated with different materials. Electronic devices that are protected by such coatings are also disclosed, such as smart phones, computers, head phones, and gaming devices, all of which show improve protection from contaminants, especially liquid contaminants.

摘要:
Methods for protecting an electronic device from contaminants by applying multiple polymeric layers on the vital components of a device are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises applying a multilayered, hydrophobic coating that is inert to electrical conductivity on one or more components of the device. The method includes applying to a component of a device a first layer comprising a first polymer, such as a silicone-based polymer, and a second layer comprising a second polymer, such as an acrylic-based polymer on top of the first layer. Each of the first and second layers exhibits a water contact angle greater than 90°, such as at least 110°. Electronic devices that are protected by such multilayered, hydrophobic coatings are also disclosed. Non-limiting examples of such devices include smart phones, computers, and gaming devices.
