Rogers Corporation RT/duroid® 5870 Glass Microfiber Reinforced PTFE High Frequency Laminate
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Fluoropolymer; Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE); Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), Glass Filled, Molded

Material Notes: RT/duroid® 5870 and 5880 glass microfiber reinforced PTFE composites are designed for exacting stripline and microstrip circuit applications. Glass reinforcing microfibers are randomly oriented to maximize benefits of fiber reinforcement in the directions most valuable to circuit producers and in the final circuit applications.

The dielectric constant of RT/duroid laminates is uniform from panel to panel and is constant over a wide frequency range. Its low dissipation factor extends the usefulness of RT/duroid 5870 and 5880 laminates to Ku-band and above.

RT/duroid 5870 and 5880 laminates are easily cut, sheared and machined to shape. They are resistant to all solvents and reagents, hot or cold, normally used in etching printed circuits or in plating edges and holes.
Available with a range of copper cladding options.

Features:

  • Lowest electrical loss for reinforced PTFE material
  • Low moisture absorption
  • Isotropic
  • Uniform electrical properties over frequency
  • Excellent chemical resistance
  • Lead free process compatible

Typical Applications:

  • Commercial Airline Telephones
  • Microstrip and Stripline Circuits
  • Millimeter Wave Applications
  • Military Radar Systems
  • Missile Guidance Systems
  • Point to Point Digital Radio Antennas
