Abstract: A mold release liner for a heated pressure mold for making products such as printed circuit boards is made utilizing two or more wet-laid fiber layers of cellulose or cellulose derivative fibers (such as wood, cotton, cellulose acetate, or rayon fibers, or mixtures of these). The first layer has a sufficiently low density so that it acts as a cushion and absorbs deformation when used as a release liner in the mold (typically it has a thickness of between 8-250 mils, most desirably 40-90 mils, and a basis weight of about 25-350 pounds per ream, most desirably 130-160 pounds per ream). A second layer is of much higher density than the first layer and readily releases from the molds, for example comprising condenser tissue or a similar product, having a thickness of between 0.5-10 mils and a basis weight of 4-50 pounds per ream of 500 sheets. The first and second layers are in face-to-face engagement with each other, and may be adhesively laminated together with sheet, spray, liquid, or powder adhesive.
