Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

Ventec International Group Earns IPC-4101 Qualified Products Listing
March 13, 2023 | IPCEstimated reading time: 1 minute

IPC's Validation Services Program has awarded an IPC-4101, Specification for Base Materials for Rigid and Multilayer Printed Boards Qualified Products Listing (QPL) to Ventec International Group, a global electronics materials manufacturing company headquartered in Suzhou, China. Ventec International Group provides high-reliability printed circuit board (PCB) base materials for diverse industries including military, aerospace, and automotive with material ranges designed for use in harsh environments, thermal management, signal integrity and RF applications.
Ventec International Group has met or exceeded IPC Validation Services QPL requirements for producing base materials used by PCB manufacturers in the electronics industry. The company successfully qualified its products, VT-90H and VT-901, to specification sheets 40 and 41 to IPC-4101E.
"Being recognized with an IPC Qualified Product Listing (QPL) for our polyimide laminate materials once again is a testament to our high quality and consistent manufacturing of materials for use in high-reliability mil/aero applications. The IPC QPL provides an independent endorsement that can be trusted throughout the entire electronics supply chain, and we are proud to have met the stringent requirements of both IPC’s rigorous facility audit and qualification testing program at an independent test laboratory,” said Mark Goodwin, Chief Operating Officer of Ventec International Group.
“This endorsement provides our customers with an assurance that we meet the rigorous standards for material and production control set by the IPC QPL, giving designers, manufacturers, and OEMs the confidence that we are providing reliable PCB base materials for their mission-critical applications,” Goodwin added.
IPC's Validations Services QPL Program was developed to promote supply chain verification. It also provides auditing and qualification of electronics companies' products and identifies processes which conform to IPC standards. "Ventec has differentiated itself from the competition in the polyimide market by becoming part of IPC's global network of trusted industry sources," said Randy Cherry, IPC director of Validation Services. "We are pleased to recognize Ventec for becoming a trusted supplier conforming to IPC-4101E."
