Abstract:
A thin laminate passive electrical device, such as, a capacitor, and a method of fabricating a thin laminate passive electrical device are provided. The passive electrical device includes two conductors, for example, copper foil conductors, separated by a dielectric having a first layer of a first material having a softening point temperature greater than a first temperature and a first layer of a second material having a softening point temperature less than the first temperature. The first temperature may be at least 150 degrees C. or higher. By providing a first layer having a higher softening point material, shorting across the conductors, that can be promoted by the fabrication process, is prevented. Methods of fabricating passive electrical devices are also disclosed.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a glass fiber product having particles adhered to at least one fiber of the product, where the size and amount of particles is effective to reduce the tackiness of the glass fiber product and optionally effective to reduce interfilament bonding, and composition, and method for forming the same.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide, in general, a coated fiber and fiber strand for reinforcing a composite, and more specifically, a coated fiber and fiber strand compatible with a matrix material in which the fiber and the fiber strand are incorporated.SOLUTION: A glass fiber product comprises: at least one glass fiber; and particles adhered to the at least one glass fiber. At least one parameter selected from the size of the particles and the amount of the particles is useful for reducing the adhesiveness of the glass fiber product.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a glass fiber product having particles adhered to at least one fiber of the product, a composition, and a method for forming the product. SOLUTION: Size and amount of the particles are effective to reduce tackiness of the glass fiber product and optionally effective to reduce interfilament bonding. The necessity of removal of the coating can be eliminated by good lamination strength, good thermal stability, good hydrolysis stability (resistance to migration of water along interface of fiber/polymer matrix material), low corrosiveness and reactivity in a highly humid atmosphere and compatibility with reactive acid and alkali and various kinds of polymer matrix materials. These properties are other desired properties, and one or more of the properties can be developed by a fiber strand coated according to a specific example of the present invention.
