Abstract:
A method of forming a dielectric substrate comprises contacting a liquid crystalline polymer fibrous web having a thickness of 5 mils (127 micrometers) or less with a resin composition to form a dielectric composite. Contacting is carried out under vacuum, followed by pressure. The dielectric substrate is useful in circuit materials, circuits, and multi-layer circuits, economical to make, and has excellent dielectric strength.

A resin-impregnated substrate is obtained by a method comprising the steps of immersing a sheet comprising an aromatic liquid crystalline polyester fiber in an aromatic liquid crystalline polyester solution containing 100 parts by weight of a solvent and 0.5 to 100 parts by weight of an aromatic liquid crystalline polyester and removing the solvent, the solvent containing on a weight basis with respect to the solvent 30% or more of a phenol compound. The resin-impregnated substrate has a high heat resistance in soldering conditions.
Abstract:
A basic board member includes an inner fabric member, and a gelatinous emulsion disposed on the inner fabric member, to form a gel outer layer on the inner fabric member, after the gelatinous emulsion is cured, to facilitate a low dielectric characteristic to the basic board member. The inner fabric member includes one or more fabric layers made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) material, and preferably inclined relative to each other, having an included angle of about forty five (45) degrees. An outer fabric layer may further be attached onto the fabric layer. The gelatinous emulsion may include a polytetrafluoroethylene emulsion and a coupling agent mixed and stirred together.
Abstract:
This invention provides multi-layered composites, laminates and composite joints in which at least one resin-impregnated, fiber-containing layer is joined or laminated to a core layer having a lower flexural modulus or higher elongation at break, higher toughness, or a combination of all or some of these properties. The multi-layer composite produced by laminating or joining these materials together has improved shearout, impact and cutting resistance, since stresses caused by outside forces can be more widely distributed throughout the composite.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a multilayer printed wiring board having a filled viahole structure advantageously usable for forming a fine circuit pattern thereon, and having an excellent resistance against cracking under a thermal shock or due to heat cycle. The multilayer printed wiring board is comprised of conductor circuitry layers and interlaminar insulative resin layers deposited alternately one on another, the interlaminar insulative resin layers each having formed through them holes each filled with a plating layer to form a viahole. The surface of the plating layer exposed out of the hole for the viahole is formed substantially flat and lies at a substantially same level as the surface of the conductor circuit disposed in the interlaminar insulative resin layer. The thickness of the conductor circuitry layer is less than a half of the viahole diameter and less than 25 μm. The inner wall of the hole formed in the interlaminar insulative resin layer is roughened and an electroless plating layer is deposited on the roughened surface. An electroplating layer is filled in the hole including the electroless plating layer to form the viahole. The interlaminar insulative resin layer is formed from a composite of a fluororesin showing a high fracture toughness and a heat-resistant thermoplastic resin, a composite of fluororesin and thermosetting resin or a composite of thermosetting and thermoplastic resins.

Abstract:
A prepreg for a printed wiring board includes fluorocarbon fibers as a reinforcing material, and the reinforcing material is impregnated with a resin. The fluorocarbon fibers include short fibers having a branch structure. The reinforcing material includes a nonwoven fabric formed by interlacing the fluorocarbon fibers in the thickness direction. The proportion of the fluorocarbon fibers among the fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric ranges from 50 wt % to 100 wt %, and the remaining fibers are synthetic fibers or inorganic fibers. The nonwoven fabric is heat-treated at 330° C. to 390° C., then annealed at 200° C. to 270° C., and impregnated with the resin. This prepreg can used to provide a printed wiring board with low Interstitial Via Hole connection resistance and high connection stability and a method for manufacturing the printed wiring board.
