Abstract

Abstract A process is provided for making a laminated board useful in printed circuitry. The process involves laminating a metal layer to at least one side of a sheet of porous, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene using an adhesive followed by compressing the polytetrafluoroethylene sheet to increase its density. The metal layer may be a metal foil or it may comprise electrical circuitry. Also provided are printed circuit boards produced by the aforesaid process.
