Arlon® 35N

35N is a pure polyimide laminate and prepreg system for applications requiring high temperature performance. High Tg (250°C) results in low Z-direction expansion for resistance to PTH failure during PWB processing, and minimizes risk of latent PTH defects in-service. Reduced temperature and time to cure offers improved throughput compared to traditional polyimide cycles.
