Polymer ceramic composites for microwave applications.

Polymer ceramic composites for microwave applications. We present a novel technique to fabricate conformal and pliable substrates for microwave applications including systems on package. Polymer ceramic composites have also been investigat ed 14 16 recently chen et al 17 reported the microwave dielectric properties of ptfe sio 2 composite and due to its low relative permittivity e r54 which cannot be used for the miniaturization of microwave devices. Polymer ceramic composites for microwave applications.

The coefficient of thermal expansion cte of polymer ceramic composites is an important parameter that is used in packaging technology. Polymer ceramic composites were prepared by twin screw melt extrusion with high density polyethylene hdpe as the matrix and polystyrene coated bao nd2o3 tio2 bnt ceramics as the filling material. Ceramic fibers in cmcs can have a polycrystalline structure as in conventional ceramics. Microwave packaging technology demands substrate materials with high frequency compatibility minimal dielectric losses low coefficient of thermal expansion and high thermal conductivity.

Ceramic filled polymer composites are finding increasing applications in electronic and microwave devices since they combine ceramic s electrical properties and the mechanical flexibility chemical stability and processing possibility of polymers polymer ceramic composites with low relative dielectric constant ɛ r 10 and high quality factor q on one hand are. They can also be amorphous or have inhomogeneous chemical composition which develops upon pyrolysis of organic precursors the high process temperatures required for making cmcs preclude the use of organic metallic or glass fibers only fibers stable at temperatures above 1 000 c 1 800 f can be used. Interestingly the incorporation of polystyrene ps by the coating route could significantly improve the thermal behaviors of the composites hdpe ps bnt besides the temperature.

Ptfe based composites involving ceramics with high. All the works mostly. By incorporating ldpe into the composites via a coating route high ceramic powder volume content up to 50 vol could be achieved. Polymer ceramic composites especially type 0 3 are a poten tial group of materials suitable for producing functional packages that combine the electrical properties of ceramics and the mechan.
