Shelf life

Prepreg Laminate
Storage Condition Temperature < 23℃ (73℉) < 5℃ (41℉) Room
Relative Humidity < 55% / /
Shelf Life 3 Months 6 Months 24 Months

Prepreg exceeding shelf life should be retested.

Precautions In Handling

  • The prepreg exceeding shelf time should be retested.
  • Take care in handling thin core laminates as they are easily damaged.
  • If the prepreg is not consumed within 48hrs after opening the vacuum package, it is recommended that the bags be resealed.
  • Material is available in both long and short grain. The grain direction is indicated on the label with an arrow.

 

Designing And Inner Layer Process

  • Please be careful when single ply of 1080, 1086, 1078 or 106 prepreg is designed to the dielectric layer.
  • Dimension stability is the same as Standard FR4 material.
  • Please check with your oxide vendor to make sure that our material is suitable with your oxide process. We recommend to control the peel strength with brown oxide copper over 2 Lb/in.
  • For unclad or single sided laminates to be used in multilayer, please brush unclad sides before use.

① Press thickness test condition---Prepreg lamination size 18”*24”, Copper Foil---1oz/1oz, Flow---about 5%; ② Make laminated prepreg to micro-section and measure the thickness with microscope; this thickness is used for resistance design calculation. ③ The thickness measured with micrometer is 0.2~0.4 mil larger than that measured with micro-section; and mainly used for total thickness design calculation.

Laminate Availablity

Thickness: 0.002” (0.05mm) to 0.200” (5mm), available in sheet or panel form Copper Foil: 1/4 to 12oz, HTE or RTF or DST DK values are for impedance design.

Typical Drilling Parameters (φ0.3-1.0 mm)

Desmearing Process

1. Desmear rate of VT-447 is less than that of the conventional FR4; 2. Adjustments to the desmear process are necessary for the lead-free materials; 3. Check with your chemical supplier for recommendations.
