Abstract:
The present invention is a cyanate resin monomer having the formula: NCO--CH.sub.2 --(CF.sub.2).sub.n --CH.sub.2 --OCN where n is an even integer from 6 to 10, inclusive. Another aspect of the invention is an essentially pure cyanate resin mono having the formula: NCO--CH.sub.2 --(CF.sub.2).sub.n --CH.sub.2 --OCN where n=3, 4, 6, 8, or 10. Another aspect of the invention is a prepolymer made by the process of heating a monomer of the invention to a conversion below the gel point. Another aspect of the invention is a method for depositing an interlevel dielectric resin on an integrated circuit, having the steps: (a) coating the integrated circuit with a thin film of a prepolymer made by the process of heating a monomer of the invention to below the gel point, and (b) curing the prepolymer to at least the gel point. Another aspect of the invention is a low dielectric thermoset polymer resin made from these monomers. Another aspect of the invention is a composite of a resin of the invention combined with another material or materials, for structural and/or electronic applications. Such materials include powders and fibers made from, e.g., fused silica or quartz. Another aspect of the invention is making and purifying the monomers of the invention.
Abstract:
A warp-free laminate is produced by winding a first set of strands or filaments about a flat mandrel with a second set of strands being wound transverse to the first set. The two sets may be perpendicular to each other. The filaments are maintained under a controlled tension while being impregnated with a resin and during subsequent cure of the resin. In order to permit the formation of a warp-free product, the winding pattern is such that it forms a mirror image about a neutral axis or plane of symmetry. The winding pattern may be chosen to provide interstices in a predetermined pattern determining punching out or high speed drilling of hole openings for subsequent printed circuit applications.

A composite material comprising a para-oriented aramide fiber sheet and a thermosetting resin matrix. The composite material is characterized in that the reinforcing para-oiented aramide fiber sheet is pre-treated with a reactive siloxane oligomer prior to impregnation with the thermosetting resin. The reactive siloxane oligomer is represented by the following general formula (1) of: ##STR1## wherein Z is ##STR2## CH.sub.2 --O--, HS, NH.sub.2 -- or CH.sub.2 .dbd.CH--; m is an integer of from zero to 4; n is an integer of from 1 to 9; and R.sub.1 is the same or different groups selected from methyl, ethyl and phenyl.The composite material is improved in electric resistance properties, particularly after being dipped in boiling water, and also improved in thermal resistance to soldering.
Abstract:
A printed circuit board composed of an epoxy impregnated nonwoven web substrate laminated to electrically conductive sheets is presented. The printed circuit board is flexible in the sense that it can be bent to any desired multiplanar shape and will retain that shape after installation as required by electronic interconnection systems. The printed circuit board also has improved thermal properties achieved through the addition of up to 70% by weight of low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) particulate fillers and/or the use of thermally stable reinforcement fibers in the non-woven web.
Abstract:
Improved graphite fluoride fibers are produced by contact reaction between highly graphitized fibers and fluorine gas. It is preferable to intercalate the fibers with bromine or fluorine and metal fluoride prior to fluorination.These graphite fluoride fibers are bound by an epoxy. The resulting composites have high thermal conductivity, high electric resistivity, and high emissivity.

Abstract:
A heat conductive circuit board includes an insulating layer provided on a metal substrate, and an electrically conductive metal foil formed on the insulating layer, and the insulating layer is formed by impregnating an alumina paper with organic polymer. The alumina paper is made by subjecting a material containing alumina fiber as the principal components to a paper-making process. The insulating layer has excellent properties of heat transfer not only in the thickness direction but also in the surface direction, and thus, the heat conductive circuit board is excellent in heat dissipation properties.
Abstract:
A hybrid integrated circuit substrate for a motor is formed by an iron substrate (1), a resin layer (2) adhered on the same and a copper foil layer (3) adhered on the same. The resin layer (2) is formed of epoxy resin, and Kevlar fiber belonging to aromatic polyamide fiber is mixed therein in the form of cloth or paper. Thus, a clad formed by the resin layer (2) and the copper foil layer (3) has a thermal expansion coefficient close to that of the iron substrate (1), thereby to prevent warping caused in manufacturing of the hybrid integrated circuit substrate. The copper foil layer (3) is etched in prescribed configurations to form conductive paths (13), to which stator coils (5) and various circuit elements (14, 15) are connected.
