Parylene as a Dielectric Material for Electronic Applications in Space

A necessary coating for so called double layer isolation for electronic boards in space applications is presented within this paper. A Parylene F layer with a certain thickness shall realize the second electrical isolation according to the double isolation requirements of the research project. Parylene encapsulation and isolation is one approach to improve the performance and functionalities of electronic and micro systems. By using such kind of innovative and outstanding materials new application fields will be explored, requiring new materials with advanced properties.
