Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a high-frequency flexible copper-clad laminate material and its preparation method, belonging to the field of materials science and engineering. Background Technology
[0002] Flexible printed circuit boards (FPCs) are made of flexible insulating materials and feature high integration density, thinness, and bendability, giving products more design space and potential in terms of shape and reliability. The development of flexible substrates aligns with the current trend of miniaturization and thinning of electronic products, and has broad application prospects in consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, and wearable devices, as well as other communication fields. Flexible copper clad laminates (FCCLs) are an important basic material in FPC production. FCCLs consist of a flexible insulating resin film and copper foil bonded to it. Typically, FCCLs are formed by laminating copper foil onto both sides of the insulating resin film under pressure. The insulating resin film mainly uses polyimide (PI) or polyester (PET). However, PI or PET can only be used in the MHz band; if the signal frequency increases to GHz, the dielectric loss will increase significantly, and the signal-to-noise ratio of the transmitted signal may decrease significantly. Reducing the dielectric loss of materials under high-frequency and high-speed conditions is one of the effective methods to solve the above problems. Meanwhile, in recent years, due to the miniaturization and integration of electronic devices, achieving high heat dissipation has gradually become a focus of attention. Therefore, flexible copper-clad laminates with low dielectric loss and high thermal conductivity have great application prospects.
[0003] Liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) possess high strength, high modulus, high heat resistance, and low dielectric properties, as well as excellent bending resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, aging resistance, high radiation resistance, and molding and processing performance. Furthermore, their coefficient of linear thermal expansion is close to that of copper, meeting the material requirements of 5G communication products. Injection-grade LCP resin can be used in PCB motherboards and SMT connectors, while film-grade LCP resin can be used in high-frequency signal transmission carriers, such as mobile phone antennas. However, LCPs also have drawbacks such as low bending resistance and high price.
[0004] Currently, fluoropolymers have attracted widespread attention due to their excellent dielectric properties. Compared with other polymer materials, fluoropolymers are superior in heat resistance, chemical resistance, weather resistance, and electrical properties, and also possess unique properties such as non-stickiness and self-lubrication. A typical fluoropolymer used in high-frequency copper-clad laminates is polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which has low dielectric constant and dielectric loss, but its poor processing performance and film-forming ability limit its application in flexible substrates. Soluble polytetrafluoroethylene (PFA) is a copolymer of a small amount of perfluoropropyl perfluorovinyl ether and polytetrafluoroethylene. It exhibits enhanced melt adhesion and decreased melt viscosity, while its properties remain unchanged compared to polytetrafluoroethylene. At 10 GHz, PFA has a dielectric constant of 2.1 and a dielectric loss of 0.0003, comparable to PTFE in dielectric constant but slightly higher in dielectric loss. However, its processing performance is significantly improved, especially its film-forming properties.
[0005] Introducing inorganic fillers into polymer matrices is a common method to improve the overall performance of materials. Currently, a common approach is to directly composite the filler with the polymer through methods such as hot melt blending to obtain blended granules, and then fabricate the composite substrate using vacuum hot pressing. Although direct blending is relatively simple, it also has some drawbacks. First, the filler tends to be uniformly distributed within the matrix, resulting in poor performance improvement in certain aspects, often requiring a large filler content to achieve the desired properties. Second, some fillers may be exposed on the surface of the composite substrate, potentially affecting the surface smoothness of the material. Furthermore, while some high-performance fillers have good dielectric properties, they are significantly affected by environmental acids, alkalis, and water mist; their exposure can also negatively impact the final service performance of the substrate. Summary of the Invention

The copper-clad laminate material has a layered structure stacked sequentially, including: two copper foil layers located on the outermost surface, a filler powder / fluororesin varnish layer located in the center, and two liquid crystal polymer film layers located between the copper foil layer and the filler powder / fluororesin varnish layer.

[0016] This invention further provides a method for preparing the aforementioned multilayer high-frequency flexible copper-clad laminate material, comprising the following steps:
[0017] (1) Nitride filler powder is added to fluororesin emulsion, ultrasonically stirred and vacuum defoamed to obtain a uniformly dispersed slurry;

[0022] Description of the invention principle:
[0023] This invention leverages the excellent high-frequency dielectric properties, low water absorption, and superior corrosion resistance, heat resistance, flexibility, and dimensional stability of liquid crystal polymers (LCPs). A high-frequency flexible copper-clad laminate (CCL) is fabricated by encapsulating a liquid crystal polymer resin film with a filler powder / fluororesin composite film. High-performance fiberglass cloth is used as a reinforcing phase to ensure the structural strength of the CCL and improve its dimensional stability. PFA resin is used as an intermediate layer to balance the CCL's flexibility and good dielectric properties. The addition of fillers significantly improves the material's thermal conductivity and further enhances its dimensional stability without compromising its flexibility. Liquid crystal polymers possess low dielectric constant, low dielectric loss, and low water absorption. The layered encapsulation design prevents direct contact between the intermediate filler powder / fluororesin varnish layer and the external environment, effectively reducing the overall water absorption rate. The liquid crystal polymer film also exhibits excellent flexibility and good dimensional stability; the introduction of the liquid crystal polymer layer does not negatively impact the overall flexibility and dimensional stability of the CCL.
[0024] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention are:

The copper-clad laminate prepared by the present invention is made by vacuum hot pressing of liquid crystal polymer and fluororesin with filler powder and glass fiber cloth copper foil, and has the characteristics of low dielectric constant, low dielectric loss, low water absorption, high thermal decomposition temperature and high dimensional stability.
[0026] 2. Compared with the commonly used MPI and LCP copper-clad laminates, the flexible copper-clad laminate material prepared by this invention has a multi-layer structure, which encapsulates the thermally conductive filler in the core layer, which helps to form a thermally conductive path and has a great advantage in thermal conductivity. It also has excellent dielectric properties, which well meet the current high-frequency and high-speed grounding application scenarios.
[0027] 3. The flexible copper-clad laminate material prepared by the present invention has a multi-layer structure and is covered with a liquid crystal polymer layer with high dimensional stability and extremely low water absorption rate, which enables it to maintain performance indicators such as water absorption rate, thermal decomposition temperature, and dimensional stability comparable to other similar materials.
[0028] 4.

[0061] Comparative Example 2:
[0062] Step (1): Take a certain amount of pure PFA powder, liquid crystal polymer (LCP) powder and boron nitride ceramic particles, and weigh them precisely so that the mass ratio between PFA, LCP and boron nitride is 9:4:7.
[0063] Step (2): The powders weighed in step (1) are premixed and then put into a twin-screw extruder for hot melt blending, followed by extrusion granulation to obtain composite granules. The screw temperature is 325℃, the screw speed is 100r / min, and the blending time is 5min.
[0064] Step (3): The granules obtained in step (2) are placed in a vacuum hot press for hot pressing to obtain a composite flexible high frequency substrate. The hot pressing temperature is 325℃, the hot pressing pressure is 5MPa, the hot pressing time is 2min, and the vacuum degree is -0.085MPa.

[0068] Compared to the embodiments of the present invention, the product of Comparative Example 1 does not use a liquid crystal polymer film layer, and the final product is a three-layer sandwich structure used in conventional technology. A comparison of the product specifications of Example 3 and Comparative Example 1 shows that, because the surface of Example 3 is coated with a liquid crystal polymer film, it effectively isolates moisture from the environment. While the flexible high-frequency copper-clad laminate material prepared in Comparative Example 1 performs well in terms of dimensional stability and thermal conductivity, its excessively high water absorption rate limits its practical application in the high-frequency radio frequency field.
[0069] Compared to the embodiments of the present invention, although Comparative Example 2 also uses liquid crystal polymer and fluoropolymer components, the fluoropolymer is not used to prepare the filler powder / fluoropolymer coating layer for independent use. The final product is still a traditional copper-clad laminate structure. By comparing the product indicators of Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that Example 1, through its layered structural design, achieves higher thermal conductivity compared to the traditional blending process, while exhibiting similar performance in dielectric properties, water absorption, and dimensional stability.
[0070] In summary, the layered structure design described in this invention has a significant effect on improving the overall performance of materials.
