Abstract
Disclosed are improved laminates useful in the manufacture of multi-layer printed wiring boards (MLPWB) and laminates. Such improved composites contain at least one layer which is formed from a liquid crystal polymer selected from the group consisting of poly(para-phenylene benzobisthiazole), poly(paraphenylene benzobisoxazole), poly(2,5-benzothiazole), poly(2,5-benzoxazole), and mixtures thereof. The presently preferred liquid crystal polymer comprises poly(para-phenylene benzobisthiazole). The negative coefficient of thermal expansion and high modulus of elasticity of the liquid crystal polymers enable a laminate and MLPWB to be manufactured therefrom having a tailored coefficient of thermal expansion, broadly ranging from about 0 to 15 ppm/.degree. C. MLPWBs constructed of polymeric core layers also are possible utilizing the preferred liquid crystal polymers of the present invention.
