High Heat Resistance Multilayer Material (FR-4)

MCL-E-73 ・GEA-73N <prepreg>

MCL-E-73 has superior heat resistance property, which is suitable for the lead free soldering process with lower CTE and excellent through-hole reliability. It is well suited to electronics for automobiles, personal computer, high density electronic equipment etc...

Features

  • Heat resistance is superior to that of our standard FR-4, and suitable for the lead free process.
  • The coefficient of thermal expansion is lower than that of our standard FR-4 and that makes excellent through-hole reliability.
  • Suitable for punching process.
  • CAF restraining property is superior to that of our standard FR-4.
