Abstract

Influences on Vapor Phase Amino Silane Coatings

Ken Sautter, Director of Technology, Yield Engineering Systems, Inc.

Vapor phase coating is increasingly important to creating repeatable, thin, uniform interface layers between inorganic substrates and bio materials. Of the hundreds of silane materials available, amino silanes are the most common materials coated for biologic applications.  This paper will explore coating conditions which affect density and stability of the amino silane coating including temperature, pressure and humidity.
