3 Key Takeaways From a New White Paper on Component Salvage

08/25/2026 | I-Connect007
Electronic waste is typically discussed in terms of recycling, but recycling is only one way to recover value from discarded electronics. In the white paper “Salvaging Electronic Components: A Reliable Method for Reducing Electronic Waste, and Ensuring Economic Reuse,” Nash Bell, president of BEST Inc., examines a different approach: harvesting high-value components from obsolete or superseded PCBs, reconditioning them, and putting them back into service.

Getters for Hermetic Packages: Mechanisms, Reliability Impact, and MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions

06/11/2026 | Michael Previti, MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions
Hermetic packages protect chips, lasers, and sensors from the outside world, but the cavity inside can still change after seal. Small amounts of water, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and organic vapor may remain after build or may form later from adhesives, films, and other internal materials. Getters reduce that risk by creating a planned sink for those gases inside the package. When teams choose the right getter early, they hold the headspace steady, cut reliability escapes, and lower the life-cycle cost of a high-value device.

Sealed for Survival: Potting Electronics for the Toughest Environments

10/29/2025 | Beth Massey, MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions
Electronics deployed in harsh conditions face relentless threats from vibration, impact, chemical contaminants, airborne pollutants, and moisture, conditions that can quickly lead to failure without robust protection. Potting, the process of encapsulating electronics in a protective polymer, is a widely used strategy to safeguard devices from both environmental and mechanical hazards.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Best Practices for Electronic Component Salvaging

09/17/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone Pile
Electronic component salvaging is the practice of recovering high-value devices from PCBs taken from obsolete or superseded electronic products. These components can be reused in new assemblies, reducing dependence on newly purchased parts that may be costly or subject to long lead times.

The Knowledge Base: A Conference for Cleaning and Coating of Mission-critical Electronics

07/08/2025 | Mike Konrad -- Column: The Knowledge Base
In electronics manufacturing, there’s a dangerous misconception that cleaning and coating are standalone options, that they operate in different lanes, and that one can compensate for the other. Let’s clear that up now. Cleaning and conformal coating are not separate decisions. They are two chapters in the same story—the story of reliability.
