If you are not using adhesion promoter get some A-174. That said you may have problems with any polymer adhesion to silicon in a basic solution. For example, 5% KOH in DI works well to strip nearly any polymer from a silicon surface. It is really handy for stripping negative resist. Good luck, Michael >>> Reza Rashidi9/29/2009 10:45 PM >>> Hi, I have a silicon wafer with a 5 um parylene on it which is a chemical protector. The package will operate at 170C and up to 300 psi in a basic solution. Due to poor adhesion of parylene, the liquid penetrates under the parylene film. I am wondering how I can increase the adhesion. Your advise will be appreciated. Thnaks, Reza
