3. Material Features and Advantages
Lowest Electrical Loss for Reinforced PTFE Material – Ensures minimal signal attenuation in high-frequency and millimeter-wave applications.
Low Moisture Absorption – Maintains stable performance in varied environmental conditions.
Isotropic Characteristics – Provides uniform mechanical and electrical behavior in all planar directions.
Uniform Electrical Properties Over Frequency – Delivers consistent performance from panel to panel across wide frequency ranges.
Excellent Chemical Resistance – Withstands solvents and reagents used in PCB etching and plating processes.
The material is highly manufacturable—easily cut, sheared, machined—while offering robust chemical resistance throughout fabrication.
4. Material Availability and Cladding Options
Typically supplied with electrodeposited copper cladding ranging from ½ to 2 oz/ft² (8 to 70 µm) or reverse-treated EDC on both sides, Rogers RT/duroid 5880 laminate PCB can also be specified with rolled copper foil for enhanced electrical performance in critical applications. For designs requiring additional mechanical support or thermal management, cladding with aluminum, copper, or brass plates is also available.
