Ventec High Performance IMS Dielectric Material VT-4B5H Receives UL-Authorization
April 29, 2020 | Ventec International Group Co., Ltd.Estimated reading time: 2 minutes
Ventec International Group Co., Ltd., is pleased to announce that UL’s evaluation of Ventec’s high-performance ceramic-filled, non-reinforced IMS dielectric material has received authorization to apply the UL mark and has thus been recognized for achieving 155°C maximum operating temperature (MOT) for electric and mechanical RTI (Relative Temperature Index).
UL's investigation of Ventec's VT-4B5H metal base laminate has been completed and was determined to comply with the applicable requirements including 155oC MOT (maximum operating temperature) for electric and mechanical RTI (Relative Temperature Index). With thermal conductivity of 4.2 W/m*K and glass transition temperature (Tg) of 180°C, the versatile IMS material is the perfect choice for use in extreme high temperature applications. These include DC/DC power modules, IGBT applications, motor controllers, high lumen output LED devices, battery charging, OBC chargers for EV vehicles and several other automotive “underhood” applications. VT-4B5H is also highly recommended for chip on board (COB) or direct die in both power and LED applications.
VT-4B5H is available in a wide range of dielectric-, copper foil- and base plate thicknesses and types as well as in numerous panel size options. This versatility is ideal for both single layer and multiple layer IMS designs.
Chris Hanson, Global Head IMS Technology, commented: "Achieving UL authorization for VT-4B5H’s industry-leading 155°C MOT performance is fantastic news. As a complement to our full VT-4B series of superior thermal dissipation materials, our customers have access to an IMS material that meets virtually any high thermal performance requirements."
Ventec International is a world leader in the production of polyimide and high reliability epoxy laminates and prepregs and specialist provider of thermal management and IMS solutions. Further information about Ventec’s solutions and the company’s wide variety of products is available at www.venteclaminates.com and/or by downloading the Ventec APP.

Connect the Dots: The Future of Designing for Reality—Outer Layer Imaging
12/24/2025 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsIf you read my column regularly, you know I’m passionate about helping designers get the most from their designs. In my November column, I focused on designer best practices for the electroless copper component of the manufacturing process. The next step is outer layer imaging: the transition from digital to physical, and where the designer’s IP meets the board.
