The present invention include non-porous adherent coatings of chemically
inert high purity poly-oligomers deposited on substrates. The coatings
are applied and cured on the substrates at relatively low temperatures
which permits the coating process to be performed with temperature
sensitive structures such as magnets, electronic circuits, electrodes,
and bonding pads in place on the substrate. Coated substrates, such as
sensors and fluid conduits, have an effective thickness of the protective
non-porous coating that is chemically bonded to a surface of the
substrate that will be contacted with a fluid. The adherent non-porous
coating on the substrate protect it from corrosion, particle generation,
swelling, or delamination caused by contact with the fluid.
