  • Patent number: 4861648
    Abstract: The invention provides a stratiform press sheet useful in laminating three-dimensional flexible printed circuits on a flat bed press, the sheet having a median conformable layer comprising a polymeric thermoplastic film; a polymeric release layer; a stabilizing layer made of a sheet of metal foil; and adhesive means to bond the above components in a single, stratiform sheet. The metal foil is functional at both the conventional lower laminating temperatures and the higher temperatures approaching 600 degrees F., and accordingly by careful selection of the other components it is possible to provide unified stratiform press pad sheets accommodating a wide range of laminating temperatures.
