PROMOSOLV COAT UT10: Replaces 3M Novec™ 1700 with a mask-free, instant-drying hydrophobic and oleophobic ultrathin coating technologyA nano-level protection solution designed specifically for PCBAs and precision components, providing superior moisture and corrosion resistance with a simplified manufacturing process, comprehensively improving product reliability.
Faced with stringent global environmental regulations on PFAS and the impending discontinuation of 3M™ Novec™ 1700/2704 , the electronics industry is seeking safer and more efficient protection upgrades. PROMOSOLV™ COAT UT10 , a masterpiece from Inventec’s “Greenway” series developed specifically for high-end electronic protection, is not only a perfect replacement for 3M Novec™ coatings, but also provides an impeccable hydrophobic and oleophobic barrier for your PCBA and precision components while ensuring 100% PFAS-free performance.
Core Product Advantages
PROMOSOLV™ COAT UT10 is a high-performance fluoropolymer coating designed for precision electronic designs that are extremely sensitive to weight and volume.
- Ultra-thin nanoscale coatings: The coating thickness is extremely thin (usually less than 1 micrometer), which does not affect heat dissipation or change the geometry of precision parts, making it an ideal choice for miniaturized components.
- Excellent moisture and oil resistance: With extremely low surface energy, it effectively repels moisture, grease and most industrial solvents, preventing short circuits caused by moisture.
- Excellent corrosion resistance: It can prevent sulfidation, salt spray and chemical gases from corroding metal solder joints and lead frames, greatly extending product life.
Safety & Environmental Commitment
Against the backdrop of Taiwan’s promotion of ESG sustainable supply chains, UT10 offers a more environmentally friendly option than traditional conformal coatings.
- Non-flammable and safe formula: No flash point, contains no flammable solvents, greatly improving the safety of factory operations, and no special explosion-proof construction equipment is required.
- Low Global Warming Potential (GWP): It uses environmentally friendly fluorinated solvent carriers, which are friendly to the atmospheric environment and comply with global carbon reduction standards.
- No carcinogens (No CMR): Free from harmful solvents such as toluene and xylene, ensuring the respiratory health of construction workers and meeting high environmental, safety, and health (EHS) standards.

Exceptional Performance
The UT10 offers exceptional process convenience for Taiwan’s highly automated production lines.
Cost optimization
By simplifying the manufacturing process and achieving high yield, the total cost of ownership (TCO) can be optimized.
- Reduced equipment footprint: No need for large curing ovens or long drying lines, saving space in expensive semiconductor/SMT plants.
- Improve long-term reliability: Effectively reduce repair costs and brand damage caused by product failure due to environmental factors during the warranty period.
- High material utilization: The solvent evaporation is stable and controllable, and when used with a closed system, material loss is extremely low.
Application area
- Automotive: Provides salt spray and moisture protection for ADAS sensors and battery management systems (BMS).
- AI Servers and Data Centers: Prevent cooling system condensate and airborne pollutants from corroding precision circuits.
- Outdoor communication equipment (5G/IoT): Ensure stable operation of base station equipment in Taiwan’s high-humidity, high-salinity coastal environment.
- Wearable and medical devices: Provide sweat protection and chemical isolation without compromising the product’s aesthetics and slimness.
