    Date of Patent: July 26, 2005
    Assignee: Metallized Products, Inc.
    Inventor: Martin J. Wilheim
  • Publication number: 20040112516
    Abstract: An improved method of and apparatus for producing novel preferably thin plastic protective or masking film layer products for thin shiny copper foils and the like, as for PCB applications and the like, with an inner releasable film surface coating carrying a permanent electric-charge for adhering to the shiny foil surface, but with the opposite outer surface of the film being maintained uncharged and electrically neutral.

  • Patent number: 5989377
    Abstract: A method for protecting a substrate sheet such as a conductive foil suitable for use in the manufacture of printed circuit boards involving applying a lamination mold-release layer to one side of a protective film, and applying a preferably electron beam curable adhesive pressure-sensitive coating to the other side of the film, curing the adhesive coating, and laminating the protective film to the foil or other substrate sheet, which, in turn, may be laminated to other substrates such as dielectric sheets.

  • Patent number: 4264544
    Abstract: Mold, particularly for rigid polyurethane foam articles having finished textured surfaces on all sides thereof comprising a female mold having a recess into which the unreacted and unblown resin system is deposited and a cover for closing the mold together with a release sheet structure disposed therebetween exhibiting sufficient gas porosity to enable complete venting of air displaced by the rising foam in the production of a finished surface thereat and method of molding therewith.
