Taconic Launches ORCERTM Brand with Development of RF-60 and RF-30 Products.
-- New product family combines the advantages of fluoropolymer organic
chemistry with the benefits of ceramic compounds.
Today, in Boston Massachusetts, Taconic of Petersburgh, New York announced
a new brand name, ORCERTM, and the development of two new products,
RF-60 and RF-30, to extend its Adva nced Dielectric Division's product line.
The ORCERTM product family includes products with dielectric constants
ranging from 3.0 to 10.0. These products provide the low electrical loss, high
rigidity and dimensional mechanical strength, high copper peel strength, low
thermal expansion rates, stable dielectric constants and low moisture
absorption associated with fluoropolymer laminates. The ORCERTM Trademark
is relevant for all laminates manufactured in either of Taconic's Mullingar,
Ireland or Petersburgh, New York manufacturing facilities as well as Taconic's
future manufacturing facility located near Seoul, Korea.
Taconic's two newest products, RF-60 and RF-30, fall under the ORCERTM
product family. RF-60 has a dielectric constant of 6.15, which allows for circuit
miniaturization, making it ideal for next generation power amplifiers,
antennas and related components. RF-30 maintains a dielectric constant of
3.0, making it ideal for low intermodulation performance of base station
antennas. Taconic's Advanced Dielectric President, Berry Beumer, commented,
"The introduction of these new products allow our customers to miniaturize
their circuit designs. ORCERTM products combine the low-loss advantages of
fluoropolymer organic chemistry with ceramic's capability to adjust the
dielectric constant provides our customers with superior electrical performance
while maintaining ease of processing."
Taconic, a manufacturer of PTFE coated fiberglass since 1961, employs over
400 people worldwide and is a multinational manufacturer and marketer of
engineered products for demanding specialty applications. Taconic products
serve the Wireless Communication, Aerospace, Automotive, Chemical, Food,
Medical and Textile Industries, encapsulating a broad spectrum of available
substrate materials with PTFE, fluoropolymer based and/or elastomer
materials.
