High-performance laminate materials are used in a variety of advanced electronics, including high-end consumer electronics. The increasingly complex performance and environmental requirements of today’s smart devices are driving greater demand for higher performance PCBs, which require laminate materials with resins specifically formulated to satisfy demanding performance criteria.
