FLAME-RESISTANT LAMINATES

摘要

A prepreg useful in flame resistant copper clad printed circuit boards is made by impregnating a porous substrate with an impregnant containing: either a prebrominated epoxy resin or a mixture of a non-halogenated epoxy resin and flame retarding additive containing bromine, and phenolic hydroxyl groups. A phenolic novolac oligomer having an average of over 2.5 phenolic hydroxyl groups per oligomeric unit is used as curing agent. Optionally, a suitable catalyst may be included. The impregnated substrate is heated to cure or advance the resin to the "B"-stage.
