RF-35

High volume commercial microwave and RF laminate


RF-35 is an organic-ceramic laminate in the ORCER family of Taconic products. It is based on woven glass
reinforcement. RF-35 is a result of Taconic’s expertise in both ceramic fill technology and in coated PTFE
fiberglass.

RF-35 is the best choice for low cost, high volume commercial microwave and radio frequency applications.
And excellent peel strength for 1/2 ounce and 1 ounce copper (even in comparison to standard epoxy
materials), a critical aspect whenever rework is required. And ultra low moisture absorption rate and low
dissipation factor minimize phase shift with frequency.

Benefits
• Low Cost
• Excellent Peel Strength
• Exceptionally Low Dissipation Factor
• Low Moisture Absorption
• Enhanced Surface Smoothness

Applications
• Power amplifiers
• Filters and couplers
• Passive components
