Thermosetting polyphenylene ether resin with low dielectric constant

From: High Performance Plastics | Date: September 1, 1992 | Copyright information

A thermosetting polyphenylene ether (PPE) which has a low dielectric constant and good resistance to heat and chemicals has been developed by Asahi Chemical Industry Co Ltd of Tokyo, Japan. The resin has a heat resistance of 250degreeC and a dielectric constant of 3.0, much better than that of epoxy and polyimide resins.

Materials with low dielectric constants and good resistance to heat are increasingly in demand for use in printed circuit...
