Abstract:
A method of making a printed circuit network device including steps of depositing an insulating primary substrate layer on a temporary support member having a release surface, applying to the exposed surface of the primary substrate layer certain defined conductor areas, applying defined resistor areas on the exposed surface of the primary substrate layer and in electrical connection with the conductor areas, trimming the respective resistor areas to a predetermined resistive value, mounting the temporary support member with its several layers in facing relationship with a permanent support member, and thereafter releasing and removing the temporary support member from the mounted primary support layer.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating electrical component assemblies includes the steps:(a) providing a first electrode and a first electrical component and locating the electrode in a recess formed by the component to produce a first laminate sub-assembly,(b) providing a second electrode and a second electrical component and locating the electrode in a recess formed by the second component to produce a second laminate sub-assembly, and(c) locating said two sub-assemblies in mutually stacked relation, thereby to form a resultant assembly.The components are typically provided by deposition on the electrodes and to protrude edgewise thereof beyond selected edges of the electrodes, thereby to form electrical contacts, and said locating of the sub-assemblies is carried out to cause said contacts to protrude in at least two different directions from the resultant assembly. The components typically consist of dielectric material, and the electrodes are typically deposited in the form of electrically conductive ink.
Abstract:
A coated triaxial fabric, a process for its preparation and a laminated article prepared therefrom are provided. The coated fabric comprises a triaxial fabric, such as glass or polyester fibers, having a polymeric material impregnating and coating the fabric in an amount sufficient to set the yarn courses of the fabric where they cross one another and to give such a coated fabric superior isotropic tear resistance and strength (substantially uniform in all directions) when compared to a similarly constructed coated fabric prepared from a conventional biaxial fabric or a conventional bias ply construction. The coated fabric can be bonded to substrates such as metals and polymeric films.
Abstract:
Unclad and metal clad laminates are constructed by sandwiching a resin impregnated core of paper between epoxy resin impregnated woven glass fabric sheets. The paper is a water laid sheet of cellulose fibers, preferably wood cellulose or cotton linter fibers having an average length from about 0.5 to 5 mm. The laminates are used as substrates for printed circuits and printed circuit modules.
Abstract:
An electronic sub-element is provided having a particular circuit configuration, and which in conjunction with other similar sub-elements of the same or different circuit configuration, may be adhesively attached to a panel-like base member so as to constitute a printed circuit assembly. The electronic sub-element of the invention is in the form of conductive metallic particles which are adhesively attached to a carrier strip, such as plastic or wax paper, and which form a multiplicity of electrical conductors separated from one another, the particles being intermixed with adhesive material.
Abstract:
A laminated board formed of a core of pressed wood covered with preferably aluminum foil outer layers, adhesively bonded thereto, which is useful for a back-up board when drilling printed circuit boards which is formed by drying the pressed fiber core to a low moisture contest prior to adhesively bonding the aluminum foil thereto.
Abstract:
Biodegradable printed circuit boards, or PCBs, may be produced from substrate sheets that include at least one biodegradable polymer. In addition, the electrical traces used on the PCBs, may also include a biodegradable polymer incorporated with an electrically conductive material. The PCBs may be composted to degrade the PCBs, and the

Provided is a nanofiber sheet that sufficiently refined by fibrillation and has high crystallinity of cellulose fiber and can realize a fiber-reinforced composite material exhibiting high transparency, a high elastic modulus, a low coefficient of linear thermal expansion, and high heat resistance and being high in flatness and smoothness. This nanofiber sheet includes crystalline cellulose as the main component and a lignin in an amount of from 10 ppm to 10 wt %. When a fiber/resin composite material obtained by impregnating the nanofiber sheet with tricyclodecane dimethacrylate, subjecting the impregnated product to UV-curing at 20 J/cm2, and heating the cured product in vacuum at 160° C. for two hours includes 60 wt % of the cured tricyclodecane dimethacrylate and 40 wt % of nanofiber, the following physical characteristics (i) to (iii) are satisfied: (i) the parallel light transmittance of light of a wavelength of 600 nm at a sheet thickness of 100 μm is 70% or more; (ii) the Young's modulus is 5.0 GPa or more; and (iii) the coefficient of linear thermal expansion is 20 ppm/K or less.
Abstract:
The present invention consists of the direct deposition over paper of electric and electronic elements, single or integrated, including at nano-scale. The deposition, by virtue of the materials and scale utilized, is furthermore transparent, which allows the application of the present invention in the domain of graphic arts. The deposition is executed at close-to-ambient temperatures, an in a less controlled environment than that of traditional deposition processes. Furthermore, the low cost of printing obtained allows for the application of electronic paper to large surfaces.
