High-Temperature Polyimide PCB

High-Temperature Polyimide PCB is a specialized printed circuit board using polyimide (PI) as the substrate material. Its defining capability is maintaining electrical and mechanical stability under extreme temperatures (typically -269°C to +260°C continuous operation, with short-term tolerance exceeding 400°C). Key attributes include exceptional chemical resistance, high dielectric strength, low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), and superior flexibility. These PCBs are critical for high-reliability, thermal-shock-resistant applications such as aerospace, military electronics, automotive engine controls, high-temperature sensors, and medical implants.

Decomposition Temp.: >500°C (vs. FR-4's \~300°C), no toxic outgassing

Ultra-Low CTE

Operating Range: -269°C \~ +260°C (continuous), 400°C short-term (e.g., aerospace re-entry)
Decomposition Temp.: >500°C (vs. FR-4's \~300°C), no toxic outgassing

Intrinsic Flexibility & Fatigue Resistance

Dynamic flex cycles >1 million (bend radius <0.5mm)
Tensile strength >230 MPa (FR-4: 120 MPa), ideal for rigid-flex designs
