摘要:
A method of assembling a multilayer laminate interconnection board, particularly boards in which each layer preferably includes copper conductors on polyimide film layers, involves adhesively joining individual layers of wired film initially onto an auxiliary pin carrier substrate and then onto a previously laminated layer. After each layer is aligned and adhesively joined to the immediately preceeding layer, holes are formed through the layer. Metal is deposited into the holes for electrically connecting conductors on the top surface of the last layer to a via located on the immediately preceeding layer. The process is repeated for each layer of the multilayer laminate interconnection board until the entire board is completely assembled. Alternatively, layers containing preformed and metalized holes at the location of a respective via in a particular layer are aligned and adhesively laminated.

A unitary humidity exchange cell (HUX) is dislosed that includes at least one composite membrane, disposed between at least one first chamber for flow of the first fluid therethrough and at least one second chamber for flow of the second fluid therethrough. The composite membrane include an at least partially sulfonated humidity-conducting polymer comprising residues derived from at least one arylvinyl monomer; and a reinforcing substrate bonded thereto. The product finds utility in a variety of physical and chemical processes and products whereby moisture or other highly polar liquid or gas transfer, exchange removal or delivery is important. A notable application is the Membrane Energy Recovery Ventilator (MERV) in which both heat, ions and moisture is transferred between two air streams, one intake and one exhaust, from an air-conditioned building.

Fuel cells incorporating a novel ion-conducting membrane are disclosed. The membrane comprises a plurality of acid-stable polymer molecules each having at least one ion-conducting component covalently bonded to at least one flexible connecting component. The membrane has ion-conducting components of the polymer molecules ordered such that a plurality of continuous ion-conducting channels penetrate the membrane from a first face to a second face and such that the ion-conducting channels are situated in an elastic matrix formed by the flexible connecting components. A preferred membrane is obtained by (1) sulfonating SEBS with sulfur trioxide under conditions that result in greater than 25 mol % sulfonation and (2) heating the polymer.
