Offers
exceptional CTE matching (16.0ppm/°C
at room temperature) to polymeric
PCBs (eg. FR4) and improved CTE
matching to electronic circuit boards
compared to aluminium.
One
third the weight of copper. Machining
is similar to conventional aluminium
alloys. Weldable and plateable.
Typical
applications include electronic
packages, carrier plates for polymeric
PCBs and stamped components.
