Article: Fiber Glass Reinforcements within Circuit Board Composites.

INTRODUCTION

Circuit boards are not often thought of as sandwiches of composite materials. However, if one was to subject a typical circuit board to temperatures over 1200[degrees] F ([sim]650[degrees] C), one would see that the remaining copper and fiber glass reinforcements are part of the integral composite matrix of resin, glass, and copper. It is the engineered composite material properties that provide the foundation of the conductive and insulative matrix essential to circuit boards. The objectives of this article are to provide an overview of the manufacturing and functions of fiber glass reinforcement within circuit board composites and explore some of ...
