Rogers IsoClad 933 DK2.33 Non-woven Fiberglass/PTFE IsoClad Series High Frequency Laminates

Rogers IsoClad 933 DK2.33 Non-woven Fiberglass/PTFE IsoClad Series High FrequencyLaminates

Product Overview

IsoClad 933 laminates are part of Rogers Corporation's IsoClad laminate Series, which belongs to the nonwoven fiberglass/PTFE composite family specifically engineered for printed circuit board (PCB) substrates. This Rogers laminate variant is formulated with an optimized higher ratio of fiberglass to PTFE, a design choice that enhances its structural reinforcement. Compared to competitive nonwoven fiberglass/PTFE laminates with similar dielectric constants,RogersIsoClad 933 benefits from Rogers' proprietary manufacturing process and the use of longer random fibers. These features collectively deliver superior dimensional stability and more consistent dielectric constant performance, making it a reliable choice for demanding electronic applications.

Key Features

• Reinforced with nonwoven fiberglass
• Low dielectric constant (Er = 2.33)
• Exceptionally low dissipation factor
• Enhanced dimensional stability
• Increased mechanical strength
• Highly isotropic characteristics across X, Y, and Z axes
• Less rigid compared to woven fiberglass-based laminates

Core Benefits

1)The nonwoven fiberglass reinforcement, combined with the optimized material ratio, ensures improved structural integrity and mechanical robustness, suitable for applications requiring durability.

2)Its isotropic nature guarantees consistent performance across all three spatial axes, eliminating directional variations in electrical and mechanical properties.

3)The lower rigidity relative to woven fiberglass laminates facilitates easier handling and processing, especially in scenarios where the final circuit needs to be bent or shaped.

4)Stable dielectric properties across a wide frequency range support reliable signal transmission, critical for high-frequency applications.

Typical Applications

• Conformal (wrap-around) antennas
• Stripline and microstrip circuits
• Missile guidance systems
• Radar systems
• Electronic warfare systems

Typical Properties of IsoClad 933

Notes on Property Stability

The dielectric constant of IsoClad 933 maintains excellent stability across a broad frequency spectrum. This inherent robustness simplifies the design process for applications spanning the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum, enabling seamless design transitions and scalability.

The dissipation factor also remains stable across different frequencies, providing a reliable platform for high-frequency applications where signal integrity is paramount to overall performance.
