[0002] With growing environmental awareness and increasingly stringent environmental regulations, the environmental requirements for materials and processes used in electronic products are becoming increasingly stringent. Copper-clad laminates (CCLs), made from fiberglass cloth, epoxy resin, and halogen-containing flame retardants, are a key substrate for printed circuit boards (PCBs) widely used in electronic products. However, traditional CCLs often contain halogen compounds, such as bromides or chlorides, which can release harmful gases and wastewater during production and processing, posing potential risks to the environment and human health. These added flame retardants release toxic gases when the laminates are burned. To avoid the adverse effects of these toxic substances, developing environmentally friendly CCLs and improving product reliability have become urgent priorities.
