Arlon Electronic Materials

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.

85N is the ultimate polyimide and laminate prepreg system fo PWB's requiring resistance to high temperature, both in process and in end-use applications. Bromine-free chemistry provides Bestin-Class thermal stability for applications with sustained high in-use temperatures as well as for use in lead-free soldering applications.

Arlon 25N and 25FR are woven fiberglass reinforced, ceramic-filled composite materials engineered for use in microwave and RF multilayer printed circuit boards. Combining a non-polar thermoset resin system with a controlled-expansion ceramic filler, 25N and 25FR offer low dielectric constant and loss combined with a low Thermal Coefficient of Dielectric Constant (TCEr) for signal stability over a wide ambient temperature range. Designed for use in multilayer packages, 25N and 25FR offer prepregs that are identical in chemical composition and physical properties with their copper clad laminates for a completely homogeneous finished package for optimal signal integrity.The low dielectric constant (Er) and loss properties, low thermal coefficient of dielectric constant (TCEr), and excellent physical stability characteristics offered by 25N and 25FR materials make them ideal for wireless and digital applications, such as cellular telephones, down converters, low noise amplifiers, antennas and other advanced des ign circuits.Processing for 25N and 25FR materials is consistent with processing for standard high temperature thermoset based printed circuit board substrates.

Arlon's AD Series is a group of woven fiberglass-reinforced PTFE composite materials designed for use as printed circuit board substrates. These materials combine the excellent low loss electrical properties of PTFE resin with the enhanced value of costeffective heavier fiberglass styles to provide low cost laminate materials suitable for high volume commercial wireless communication applications.The AD Series is currently available in a limited combination of dielectric thickness (0.015" - 0.062") and dielectric constant (2.5 - 3.5). Thicker dielectrics can be developed to meet customer requirements. The higher weight ratio of fiberglass to PTFE resin yields laminates with greater dimensional stability than is normally expected of PTFE-based substrates.Stability of PTFE over a wide frequency range and low loss makes AD Series materials ideal for a variety of microwave and R/F applications in telecom industry. AD Series laminate materials may be processed with standard PTFE materials. Because there is a relatively higher percentage of fiberglass, thermal expansion is reduced in all directions, improving plated through hole reliability.

Greene, Tweed's Arlon® 1000, a tough, hig temperature, semi-crystalline thermoplastic, offers a unique combination of mechanical, thermal and chemical propertier. Arlon 1000 features superior compressive strength and minimum creep, as well as broad chemical resistance. Arlon is an excellent choice for applications such as valve seats and bushings greater abrasion resistance and lower wear and better fatigue properties than other thermoplastics.

Arlon 85HP’s unique blend of pure polyimide resin and micro-fi ne proprietary fi llers results in superior performance for demanding applications. Compared to conventional polyimide systems, 85HP has a lower Z-axis expansion and twice the thermal conductivity. 85HP reduces resin cracking and wicking in designs with high density plated through holes and vias. 85HP prepreg has resin fl ow characteristics and pressed thickness matching standard polyimides.

49N is a low-flow epoxy prepreg engineered for bonding multilayer epoxy rigid-flex or attaching heatsinks to multilayer epoxy PCBs. With a high Tg, the prepreg can be used in high-performance or hightemperature applications compared to a standard difunctional epoxy low-flow.
