The use of wearable devices has become an integral part of our daily lives. From exercise monitors to implanted medical devices, wearables are transforming healthcare, consumer electronics and beyond. However, as we grow increasingly reliant on these devices, it is essential to ensure their functionality and durability.
Regarded as the optimal choice for device protection, Parylene coatings safeguard wearables in nearly all scenarios. These ultra-thin, resilient films offer water, sweat and chemical resistance, while preventing EMF and RF interference. They not only protect the devices against environmental conditions but also ensure their accurate and efficient operation, even when worn on the body or implanted internally.

While Parylene is an excellent choice for coating various applications, one key aspect to consider is its limited resistance to UV light, causing the coating to gradually yellow under such exposure. There's a solution to this drawback: Parylene HT® is designed to withstand UV light and can easily endure 2,000 hours of accelerated exposure without yellowing or breaking down. It's perfect for LED displays that are exposed to the elements, offering protection from moisture damage, heat and electrical signals.
