Introduction to RT/duroid 5880

RT/duroid 5880 is a PTFE (Teflon) composite reinforced with glass microfibers, designed for high-frequency stripline and microstrip circuits. Its uniform dielectric constant (2.2±0.02) and ultra-low dissipation factor (0.0009 at 10GHz) make it ideal for Ku-band and millimeter-wave applications.

Key Features

• Dielectric Constant (Dk): 2.2±0.02 @ 10GHz/23°C
• Dissipation Factor (Df): 0.0009 @ 10GHz
• Temperature Coefficient of Dk (TCDk): -125 ppm/°C
• Moisture Absorption: 0.02% (excellent for humid environments)
• CTE (Coefficient of Thermal Expansion):
• X-axis: 31 ppm/°C
• Y-axis: 48 ppm/°C
• Z-axis: 237 ppm/°C
• Thermal Decomposition (Td): 500°C (TGA)
• Flame Rating: UL 94-V0 (self-extinguishing)
• Lead-Free Process Compatible
• Isotropic Properties (uniform performance in all directions)
