commercial release of MultiBond 200, the successor to the Multi- Bond 100 oxide-alternative pro- cess. MultiBond 200 retains all the functional benefits of Multi- Bond 100 and runs in the same MacDermid hor izon ta l convey- orized lines, which have become the indust ry standard. In addi- tion it achieves the same coating quali ty of MultiBond 100 while only etching 25 txin. instead of 75 txin. It also holds twice as much copper at 40 to 45 g/L result ing in an 80 to 90% reduction in volume of concentrated copper waste to be treated. Unlike competitive sys- tems, MultiBond 200 is very sta- ble and creates no sludge in ei ther predip or coating bath. This feature great ly reduces process mainte-

nance and eliminates a potential source of surface contamination. Circle 411 on the reader service card
