Circutek C-877
Circutek C-877 is used to catalyze non-metallic surfaces in the electroless copper process. Such surfaces are present in drilled holes (PTH) and include resin and glass weave surfaces that were cleaned and exposed in the desmear process steps. The chemical activity relies on the presence of colloidal palladium, which when adsorbed on non-metallic surfaces enables plating of electroless copper deposits. Circutek C-877 bath must be preceded by Circutek PD-776 to protect the delicate chemical balance of the former and assure the optimal catalyst performance.

CuBrite™ PC-525
A copper plating additive for acid sulfate plating baths designed specifically for high throwing power through-hole plating of printed circuit boards. CuBrite PC-525 produces bright copper deposits that provide consistent thermal stress performance. CuBrite PC-525 is a single, clear addition agent, added on an ampere hour basis, which is used to control the brightness and physical properties of the deposit. The extreme stability of this additive greatly reduces the need for routine solution purification.

DX™45 Plus
A one-part concentrate formulated to develop fully aqueous dry film photoresists and photoimageable solder masks. DX-45 PLUS’ highly concentrated formula is ideally suited for use in feed and bleed systems, resulting in less frequent additions than with more dilute carbonate solutions. Proprietary ingredients enhance loading, help keep equipment clean, and ensure straighter sidewalls, cleaning the foot” of underdeveloped resist. These features result in greater productivity and less down time. “” one-part concentrate formulated to develop fully aqueous dry film photoresists and photoimageable”

De-Ox™
De-Ox is a de-oxidizer that will remove tin, lead oxides as well as other oxides from contact surfaces minimizing resistance levels and restoring semiconductor test sockets to optimal performance. De-Ox deoxidizes without “activating” the metal surface therefore subsequent re-growth of oxides is not altered. De-Ox removes only oxides, and will not attack most metals, except zinc and aluminum.
