Products in Consumer Electronics: Prepreg

FR408 low dielectric constant (Dk) and low dissipation factor (Df) make it an ideal candidate for broadband circuit designs requiring faster signal speeds or improved signal integrity. FR408 is compatible with most FR-4 processes. This feature allows the use of FR408 without adding complexity to current fabrication techniques.

TerraGreen® is engineered for such high-performance applications as power amplifier boards for LTE base stations, internet infrastructure and cloud computing. TerraGreen ® features a Dielectric Constant (Dk) that is stable between -55°C and 125°C, up to 20 GHz. TerraGreen® is a lead-free assembly material and is easy to process. This high-performance material utilizes a short-lamination cycle; the product is easy to drill, does not require plasma desmear, and the prepreg shelf life is similar to FR-4 materials. TerraGreen® is suitable for high-layer count, high-speed digital backplanes and is compatible with Isola’s FR-4 materials for hybrid designs. TerraGreen® meets UL 94 V-0 and is halogen free.

P25N consist of a polyimide resin system suitable for military, commercial or industrial electronic applications requiring superior performance and the utmost in thermal properties. These products utilize a polyimide and thermoplastic blend resin, fully cured without the use of Methylenedianiline (MDA). This results in a polymer with a high Tg without the characteristic difficulties of brittleness and low initial bond strength associated with traditional thermoset polyimides.

FR408HR laminate and prepreg products are manufactured with Isola’s patented high performance multifunctional resin system, reinforced with electrical grade (E-glass) glass fabric. This system delivers a 30% improvement in Z-axis expansion and offers 25% more electrical bandwidth (lower loss) than competitive products in this space. These properties coupled with superior moisture resistance at reflow, result in a product that bridges the gap from both a thermal and electrical perspective. The FR408HR system is also laser fluorescing and UV blocking for maximum compatibility with Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) systems, optical positioning systems and photo-imageable solder mask imaging.

I-Speed® laminate and prepreg products are manufactured with Isolas' patentable high performance multi-functional resin system, reinforced with electrical grade (E-glass) glass fabric.

These properties coupled with superior moisture resistance at reflow, result in a product that bridges the gap from both a thermal and electrical perspective. The I-Speed® resin system is laser fluorescing and UV blocking for maximum compatibility with Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) systems, optical positioning systems and photo imageable solder mask imaging.

Durcomp TPP: Thermoplastic Prepregs is unidirectional, continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic prepregs with different fiber and resin options, provides mechanical strength, chemical resistance, esthetic appearance etc. of railway vehicle, automotive, white goods, electronics, sports and hobby industries such as the variety to meet the expectations. We support our business partners with solutions aimed at the end use, as well as the production of semi-finished products in the form of unidirectional tape, woven / laminated sheets.

Isola’s IS410 has a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 180°C and is specially formulated for superior performance through multiple thermal excursions, passing 6X solder tests at 288°C. IS410 is optimized for enhanced drilling performance allowing high aspect ratio holes of ≤10 mils. Its unique resin chemistry provides CAF resistance with the benefit of long-term reliability of boards built with small feature designs.
