Wangling F4BTMS255 DK2.55 Df0.0012 (0.127-6.35mm+) Ceramic-Filled PTFE Laminate
Brief Introduction
F4BTMS series is an upgraded version of the F4BTM series, featuring significant technological breakthroughs in material formulation and manufacturing processes. The material incorporates a high volume of uniformly dispersed ceramic fillers combined with ultra-thin, fine-weave fiberglass reinforcement. F4BTMS255 is an aerospace-grade, high-reliability material that serves as a domestic alternative to similar international products. The advanced composition minimizes glass weave effects during electromagnetic wave propagation, reduces dielectric loss, enhances dimensional stability, and improves anisotropy in the X/Y/Z directions, enabling higher operating frequencies and increased electrical strength.
