Abstract:
A catalytic resin is formed by mixing a resin and either homogeneous or heterogeneous catalytic particles, the resin infused into a woven glass fabric to form an A-stage pre-preg, the A-stage pre-preg cured into a B-stage pre-preg, thereafter held in a vacuum and between pressure plates at a gel point temperature for a duration of time sufficient for the catalytic particles to migrate away from the resin rich surfaces of the pre-preg, thereby forming a C-stage pre-preg after cooling. The C-stage pre-preg subsequently has trenches formed by removing the resin rich surface, the trenches extending into the depth of the catalytic particles, optionally including drilled holes to form vias, and the C-stage pre-preg with trenches and holes placed in an electroless bath, whereby traces form in the trenches and holes where the surface of the cured pre-preg has been removed.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a thermosetting composition which is excellent in low warpage properties and long-term electrical insulation reliability and is capable of forming an insulating film that inhibits disconnection of wiring of a flexible wiring board. The thermosetting composition of the present invention is a thermosetting composition for forming an insulating film, by curing the composition, on a flexible wiring board comprising a wiring pattern formed on a flexible substrate, and is characterized in that a cured product obtained by curing the composition has a tensile elastic modulus of 0.5 to 2.0 GPa.
Abstract:
Composite materials comprising at least 60 volume %, preferably 70 volume %, of particles of finely powdered filler material in a matrix of poly(arylene ether) polymer material are made by forming a mixture of the components, forming the required bodies therefrom, and then heating and pressing the bodies to a temperature sufficient to melt the polymer and to a pressure sufficient to disperse the melted polymer into the interstices between the filler particles. Surprisingly these polymer materials can only be effective as bonding materials when the solids content is as high as that specified, since with lower contents the resultant bodies are too friable. This is completely contrary to accepted prior art practice which considers that composites are progressivly weakened as the solids content is increased, so that such content must be limited. In processes to obtain as complete a dispersion of the components as possible they are individually dispersed in a liquid dispersion medium containing the polymer together with necessary additives, each mixture being ground if required to obtain a desired particle size, the mixtures are mixed, again ground to produce thorough dispersion, are separated from the liquid dispersion medium and green articles formed from the resulting pasty mixture. The green articles are then heated and pressed as described above. Mixtures of different filler materials may be used to tailor the electrical and physical properties of the final materials. The articles preferably comprise substrates for use in electronic circuits.
