About RF-10 Material
The RF-10 laminate, developed as a cost-effective solution for high-frequency applications, is a composite of ceramic-filled PTFE and woven fiberglass. This material provides a balance of high dielectric constant, low dissipation, and excellent rigidity, suitable for advanced RF and microwave circuits.
 
Key Features of RF-10:

• Dielectric Constant (Dk): 10.2 ± 0.3 at 10GHz, ideal for compact RF circuit designs.
• Dissipation Factor (Df): 0.0025 at 10GHz, ensuring minimal signal loss.
• Thermal Conductivity: 0.85 W/mk (unclad), providing efficient thermal management.
• Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE): X-axis: 16 ppm/°C. Y-axis: 20 ppm/°C. Z-axis: 25 ppm/°C.
• Moisture Absorption: ≤ 0.08%, ensuring stable performance in humid conditions.
• Flammability Rating: UL-94 V0 for safety in critical applications.

 
The RF-10 laminate also features low profile copper adhesion, reducing skin-effect losses and improving insertion loss performance at higher frequencies.
