Park Electrochemical Introduces M-Ply, the Newest Member of the Meteorwave Family
June 22, 2017 | Park ElectrochemicalEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Park Electrochemical Corp. announced the introduction of M-Ply, a prepreg designed specifically for Radio Frequency (RF)/digital hybrid bonding. M-ply is the newest member of the Meteorwave Family of materials, as well as the newest addition to Park’s line of Very Low Loss and Ultra Low Loss electronic materials. M-Ply is available globally in multiple fiberglass styles and resin contents. M-Ply is designed to perform very well in Multi-layer RF, Multifunction Antennae, 5G Antennae and Multi-layer PTFE applications.
M-Ply prepreg is very well suited for hybrid RF/digital constructions, including bonding PTFE to PTFE and PTFE to digital substrates. It enables combinations of RF circuitry and high speed digital circuitry on the same circuit board. M-Ply provides excellent bonding to PTFE substrates, has a T300 of greater than 120 minutes and offers very tight thickness control. M-Ply also meets NASA outgassing requirements.
M-Ply is a member of the UL-designated Meteorwave Family of materials. It has a UL 94V-0 designation and a 130°C MOT Rating. M-Ply meets IPC-4101/91 and /102 specifications, and is RoHS compliant.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
