Current IssueVoices 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.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

April 10, 2023 | Arlon Electronic MaterialsEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Arlon Electronic Materials received official validation for several of its polyimide materials through IPC’s Validation Services program last month. This latest validation of its polyimide materials confirms Arlon’s ongoing commitment to providing its OEM and fabricator customers with the most reliable and consistent products available.
IPC Validation Services tested and found Arlon’s 33N, 35N, and 85N laminate systems in conformance to the requirements of IPC-4101 Specification Sheets 40 and 41. Additionally, Arlon’s polyimide low flow prepreg systems, 37N and 38N were validated to Specification Sheet 42. These products were originally tested and listed on IPC Validation Services Qualified Products List in 2018 and have been validated again this year. A full list of Arlon’s QPL listed products can be found on IPC Validation Service’s website: https://ipcvalidation.org/qualifications/qpl-qml-list/ipc-4101/.
According to John Wright, Arlon’s Director of Quality, “Having our polyimide products listed on IPC Validation Services Qualified Products List gives our customers the assurance that our processes and products continue to meet or exceed specifications. As a supplier into the global Aerospace, Industrial, and Military markets, we feel that IPC’s Validation Services program provides our customer base the confidence that Arlon’s products will consistently meet their design and performance requirements.”
