Abstract
This invention is directed to composite coating for maintaining low moisture levels at the surface of solid substrates. One embodiment of the invention comprises a coating having a desiccant layer between layers of the same or different elastomeric polymers. Another embodiment comprises a layer of elastomeric polymer covered with a layer of an elastomeric polymer/desiccant mixture. The composite coating may be applied to integrated circuits to prevent corrosion thereof.
