Microwave And RF Materials Guide
IsoClad laminates are nonwoven fiberglass/PTFE composites for use as printed circuit board substrates. The nonwoven reinforcement allows these laminates to be used more easily in applications where the final circuit will be bent to shape. Conformal or "wrap-around" antennas are a good example.
IsoClad products use longer random fibers and a proprietary process to provide greater dimensional stability and better dielectric constant uni formity than competitive nonwoven fiberglass/PTFE laminates of similar dielectric constants.
