Composites textiles are already proven to be high strength and weight-saving materials but are hindered by higher costs, However the and aerospace & defense industry Electrical & electronics, wind energy are some of the the major industries driving the composites textile market in prepreg form.
The glass textile composites are widely used in PCBs for a number of electronics applications According to industry sources at compositesworld, nearly two-thirds of all woven textile-grade electrical or E-glass reinforcements produced today are consumed by PCB laminators. PCBs are compression molded to form rigid “substrates” that support the silicon chips and interconnect the other electrical components in a wide range of electronic devices. These “bare boards” are turned into finished PCB products by literally thousands of manufacturers, with some commodity producers promising finished boards within a few hours of receiving a design.
It is encouraging to read that the Increase in Demand for PCBs Drives Composites textiles are already proven to be high-strength and weight-saving materials but are hindered by higher costs, Market with many new more flexible technologies, such as nanoparticle inks are also developing the PCB market
