What will Sun Chemical at HKPCA 2026 show?

Sun Chemical at HKPCA 2026 will show several Imagecure solder mask ranges and an inkjet legend ink. The company named these products:

• Imagecure IMC7000 Series: ultra-high-temperature-resistant solder mask inks designed to withstand demanding thermal cycling and storage conditions in high-power applications with high thermal loads.
• Imagecure IMC8000 Series: high-voltage-resistant solder masks formulated for high-humidity, high-temperature bias testing, including CAF and SIR performance requirements. Sun Chemical says the series suits electric vehicles, smart cockpit and autonomous-driving electronics, AI power modules and AI storage devices.
• Imagecure IMC5000 Series: a direct-imaging solder mask range that the company says is designed for high-speed, low-energy and stable production.
• EMD8201 Inkjet Dual-Curing Legend Ink: combines UV LED and thermal curing, with Sun Chemical citing fast cure, precision, adhesion, anti-yellowing performance and scratch resistance.

According to the company, the broader Imagecure solder mask portfolio supports screen, HVLP air-spray and electrostatic-spray application, plus UV and direct-imaging processes using UV LED, UV and LDI exposure. The portfolio also includes low-Dk/Df formulations for high-speed signal transmission.

What is the Imagecure SVHC-Free Soldermask range?

Sun Chemical will introduce the Imagecure SVHC-Free Soldermask range at the show. The company says the range contains none of the substances listed as Substances of Very High Concern under ECHA/REACH as of October 2026 and that it is RoHS-compliant. Sun Chemical also says it offers adhesion, thermal resistance and chemical durability, and works with screen printing, spray, curtain coating, direct imaging and conventional contact exposure.
