Adhesive & Resin Blocking, Conformable Release Film |
 |
 |
 |
OVERVIEW
|
| For
the Lamination of Coverlays & Flexible PCBs
PacoFlex™ #5000 is specifically engineered for the Lamination
of Cover-Layers to Flexible Printed Circuit Boards. This product is a
highly Conformable Release Film which, when exposed to heat and pressure,
becomes extremely soft and pliable for superior conformance to intricate
flex part topographies. The soft, heat-activatable,
Hydraulic center is application-designed to reduce excessive "squeeze-out" and,
effectively blocks adhesive or resin flow into unwanted areas. |

ADVANTAGES
|
|
- Total Elimination of Entrapped Air Between the Cover-Layer
and the Circuitized Base Laminate.
- PacoFlex delivers discreet hydraulic
force to reliably drive the Cover-Layer
into complete side-wall conformance with the Circuitized Base Laminate.
- Finite
Control of Adhesive Flow.
- Due to the optimized surface, and superior
conformability, PacoFlex dams back acrylic and epoxy adhesives from
flowing into Cover-Layer
clearance
areas.
- Quick, Easy Release.
- Both Sides of PacoFlex provide quick, easy, non-residue
Release from all surfaces.
- Reduces Mechanical Distortion.
- PacoFlex "locks-in" around
the Flexible components to minimize distortion due to Heat and Pressure.
- PacoFlex
conforms closely to the part surface without excessive flow-out from
the sheet. Deformed Circuits,
Crushed Pads, and Glossy Pressure Spots are eliminated, resulting in
repeatable Pad Registration.
- Reduced Lamination Pressure.
- PacoFlex, used with PacoPress® Pressure
Diffuser Pads, delivers unmatched Z-axis pressure equalization. These
two companion products conform and
stabilize the Flexible components allowing the user to reduce the Hydraulic
Force by up to 30%.
