Abstract: In a method for producing a multilayer printed circuit board from a plurality of conducting or conductive and non-conducting or insulating layers or plies to be connected to each other, in particular to be pressed together, wherein after connecting at least partially planar layers at least a partial region (11) thereof is removed, and wherein in order to prevent adherence of the partial region (11) to be removed a material (8) preventing adhesion is applied in accordance with the partial region to be removed onto a layer (9) which adjoins the partial region to be removed, it is provided that the material (8) preventing adhesion is formed by a mixture comprising a release agent on the basis of at least one metal soap, preferably the fatty acid salts of Al, Mg, Ca, Na and Zn, a binding agent, and a solvent, whereby a partial region to be removed can be removed easily and reliably after appropriate treatment and/or processing steps of the multilayer printed circuit board.

Abstract: In a method for producing a circuit board element, the following steps are provided: providing a substantially whole-area carrier having an adhesive surface; arranging and fixing a starting material of the circuit board element to be produced on the adhesive surface of the carrier; producing the circuit board element fixed on the carrier in a position fixed on the carrier; and removing the produced circuit board element from the carrier. Furthermore, a carrier for use in such a method is provided, wherein it is possible, in particular, to dispense with complex steps for separating or singulating circuit board elements and, with conservation of resources as a result of reusability of a carrier, it is possible to obtain cost savings in the production of circuit board elements.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for removing a part of a substantially planar material layer (2) which is connected to at least one further, substantially planar material layer (9) in a connecting step. According to the invention, a zone where the material layers (2, 9) are not directly interconnected is provided in the zone where the part (11) is later on removed, said first zone being provided by applying a material (8) that prevents the material layers to be interconnected from sticking to each other. The invention also relates to a multilayer structure and to the use of the method and to a multilayer structure especially for producing a multilayer printed circuit board.
