Sun Chemical to Showcase Advanced Electronic Materials Solutions at HKPCA 2026

Sun Chemical’s high-performance solder masks and inkjet technologies will support next-generation PCB manufacturing

PARSIPPANY, N.J., U.S.A. – November 12th, 2026 – Sun Chemical will showcase its latest electronic materials innovations at HKPCA 2026, held December 2–4, 2026, at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center in Shenzhen, China. Visitors can meet Sun Chemical experts in Hall 8, booth E17, to explore solutions for printed circuit board fabrication, including solder masks, notation inks, etch resists, and plating resists.

The exhibit will focus on technologies designed to help PCB manufacturers meet demanding requirements for thermal durability, electrical reliability, precision, productivity and responsible materials selection across automotive, artificial intelligence and other high-performance electronics applications.

A key highlight will be the Imagecure IMC7000 Series of ultra-high-temperature-resistant solder mask inks, designed to withstand demanding thermal cycling and storage conditions in high-power applications with high thermal loads.

Sun Chemical will also feature the Imagecure IMC8000 Series, high-voltage-resistant solder masks formulated for high-humidity, high-temperature bias testing, including CAF and SIR performance requirements. The series is suited for electric vehicles, smart cockpit and autonomous-driving electronics, AI power modules and AI storage devices.

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 includes low-Dk/Df formulations for high-speed signal transmission and high-performance HHBT solutions.

For manufacturers seeking more responsible formulations, Sun Chemical will introduce its Imagecure SVHC-Free Soldermask range. Formulated without substances currently listed as Substances of Very High Concern under ECHA/REACH as of October 2026, the RoHS-compliant range offers adhesion, thermal resistance and chemical durability. It supports screen printing, spray, curtain coating, direct imaging and conventional contact exposure.

Additional highlights include EMD8201 Inkjet Dual-Curing Legend Ink, which combines UV LED and thermal curing for fast cure, precision, adhesion, anti-yellowing performance and scratch resistance, and the Imagecure IMC5000 Series, a direct-imaging solder mask range designed for high-speed, low-energy and stable production.

Tony John Searle, Managing Director, Screen & Electronic Materials, Sun Chemical, comments: “PCB manufacturers are balancing higher thermal and electrical performance demands with the need for precise, efficient and more responsible production. Our broad electronic materials portfolio gives customers access to application expertise and technologies engineered for the next generation of automotive, AI and high-performance electronics.”
