Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 98 words
A protected sheet of copper foil for manufacturing multilayer laminates comprising: (a) a sheet of copper foil having a thickness greater than about 8 μm and having a first face adapted for adhering to a fiber reinforced polymer layer and a second protected face to be exposed after said first face is adhered to said fiber reinforced polymer layer; (b) a protective sheet of copper having a thickness of about 8 to 250 μm covering said second copper foil face and adhesively attached thereto by a non-metallic adhesive in areas where circuit patterns are not to be developed.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 98 words
