Engineered Material Systems Introduces DF-3005
June 15, 2015 | Engineered Material SystemsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Engineered Material Systems, Inc., a leading global supplier of negative photo resist materials for MEMS and IC cooling applications, is pleased to introduce the DF-3005 Dry Film Negative Photo Resist for use in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) and wafer level packaging applications (TSV sealing). This material formulation has been optimized for hot roll lamination and processing on MEMS and IC wafers.
DF-3005 is available in other thickness formats from 5-50 µm, ±5 percent. The cured chemistry can withstand harsh environments including resistance to extreme moisture conditions and corrosive chemicals. The DF-3005 film is tougher (less brittle) than most negative photo resists on the market with a glass transition temperature of 158°C (By DMA Tan Delta) and a moderate modulus of 3.5 GPa at 25°C. It is hydrophobic in nature providing for chemical and moisture resistance. DF-3005 is compatible with and can be used in contact with the EMS line of spin coatable photoresists.
DF-3005 is the latest addition to Engineered Materials Systems’ full line of film and liquid negative photo resists formulated for making microfluidic channels on MEMS devices and integrated circuits.

Beyond Thermal Conductivity: Exploring Polymer-based TIM Strategies for High-power-density Electronics
10/13/2025 | Padmanabha Shakthivelu and Nico Bruijnis, MacDermid Alpha Electronics SolutionsAs power density and thermal loads continue to increase, effective thermal management becomes increasingly important. Rapid and efficient heat transfer from power semiconductor chip packages is essential for achieving optimal performance and ensuring long-term reliability of temperature-sensitive components. This is particularly crucial in power systems that support advanced applications such as green energy generation, electric vehicles, aerospace, and defense, along with high-speed computing for data centers and artificial intelligence (AI).
Is Glass Finally Coming of Age?
10/13/2025 | Nolan Johnson, I-Connect007Substrates, by definition, form the base of all electronic devices. Whether discussing silicon wafers for semiconductors, glass-and-epoxy materials in printed circuits, or the base of choice for interposers, all these materials function as substrates. While other substrates have come and gone, silicon and FR-4 have remained the de facto standards for the industry.

Jiva Leading the Charge Toward Sustainable Innovation
09/30/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineEnvironmental sustainability in business—product circularity—is a high priority these days. “Circularity,” the term meant to replace “recycling,” in its simplest definition, describes a full circle life for electronic products and all their elements. The result is re-use or a near-complete reintroduction of the base materials back into the supply chain, leaving very little left for waste. For what cannot be reused productively, the ultimate hope is to have better, less harmful means of disposal and/or materials that can seamlessly and harmlessly decompose and integrate back into the natural environment. That is where Jiva and Soluboard come in.
