New R/flex JADE™ A Series From Rogers Corporation Integrates Green Technology

Rogers’ R/flex JADE A series products are RoHS compliant and are UL 94 V-0 classified for flame retardant performance. Outstanding thermal stability enables R/flex JADE A laminates to withstand multiple passes through a lead-free soldering process. R/flex JADE A materials’ excellent dimensional stability and adjustable squeeze-out control results in increased yields and better results in fine-line, tight tolerance design applications. Like the R/flex CRYSTAL® line of products, the R/flex JADE A series features a transparent adhesive system that simplifies optical inspections.

Available in bonding film, coverlayer and copper clad laminate constructions, the R/flex JADE series of products are manufactured under rigorous process controls that continuously monitor physical performance properties such as peel strength, squeeze-out control and dimensional stability.

“Rogers Corporation is committed to developing innovative, green products for customers who require superior performance results in portable and semiconductor applications,” said Jim Carroll, director of marketing, ACMD, Rogers Corporation. “The R/flex JADE A series provides customers with a complete, green epoxy adhesive system that’s ideal for the most intricate, technically-sophisticated circuit design applications.”
