Polyimide PCB By Feature
Because coverlay uses polyimide to make it a stronger but flexible material, flexible PCB is sometimes also known as polyimide PCB.
The use of polyimide in the flex component by rigid-flex PCB has the bonus of eliminating connectors that require mechanical drilling.
Polyimide will be a major component of a 2 Layer Flex PCB to help it fit into especially tailored small spaces.
Multilayer Flex PCB uses polyimide in Flex PCB assembly. Even some designers only work polyimide for with multilayer flex.
High Tg PCB, some devices won’t work properly without it. You can find products like this that are high quality and low-priced.
Customers who need complex electronic wiring for their devices but only have have limited space can use customized types.
What is Polyimide PCB?
Some circuit boards are created using the material polyimide.
A Polyimide PCB, then, is obviously made primarily of polyimide.
Two crucial qualities set Polyimide PCBs apart from their fiberglass counterparts.
These include flexibility and tolerance for high temperatures.
Even though there are a few high-temperature boards available,
None of them quite reach the 250-260 degrees Celsius that polyimide-based circuit boards can.
Tensile strength is a benefit of the flexible quality of polyimide.

Advantages of Using Polyimide PCB Material
Customers are primarily drawn to polyimide’s flexible nature and heat resistance when considering using it for PCBs.
However, there are additional benefits as well.
If you give it some thought, the flexibility gives the PCB designer the freedom to experiment with the electronic material’s outer casing.
Chemically speaking, polyimide is tough. Although some corrosion is unavoidable, it is usually resilient.
Tensile strength, which we briefly discussed, means that the PCB is less likely to warp even if it undergoes numerous flex cycles, which is typical in flex circuits.
Limitations of Polyimide PCB Material
There are few PCB alternatives to polyimide. It’s because not all PCB materials are appropriate for flexing components.
Cost and a few modifications made by the PCB engineer when designing the board itself are the only two restrictions that polyimide PCB has.
The PCB designer may observe a sizable difference when calculating the Bill of Materials (BOM) compared to using FR4 material in previous version.
Consumer goods made of polyimide material have a bright future; so far, the advantages outweigh the drawbacks.

Find a Credible Polyimide PCB Supplier


At PCBTok, we carefully and precisely manufacture PCBs using a unique manufacturing process.
The majority of consumer, industrial, and medical electronic products are built on flexible and rigid-flex types of polyimide.
We begin by choosing the best ecologically sound material for your project.
We at PCBTok are proud to produce PCBs of the highest caliber available. All of our products are expertly made and covered by a satisfaction guarantee.
Polyimide PCB Fabrication
Because polyimide material can withstand it without contracting, these are applications for it.
- Nowadays, the majority of consumer electronics, including laptops, wearables, and computer devices, use the material to be aesthetically pleasing.
- The majority of manufacturing equipment, including processing equipment, where lot of heat is generated.
- In automotive applications like antilock brakes, flexible PCBs are essential for vehicle security.
- Due to polyimide’s high level of efficiency in high-speed applications, it’s applicable for satellites.
There are numerous ways to categorize the various polyimide PCB types, but we will concentrate on the number of layers. This is the listing:
- The board’s one side is used for mounting components in the single-sided type. Simple and affordable design
- Due to its possibility of being tested with 3D inspection, the double-sided type offers a practical means of maintaining and repairing the entire board.
- All types with more than four layers are collectively referred to as multilayer types.
- It is known that all of these layers are chemically stable. You shouldn’t anticipate any issues, even if it is exposed to chemicals.

High thermal resistance and high reliability materials are used in Polyimide PCB. These qualities are absent in FR4 material.
There are FR4 material that are high Tg, but only up to 180 degrees Celsius.
Some customers will opt for PTFE laminates for High Tg demands, if not using polyimide.
Polyimide types are also perfect for use in vehicle modules, power modules, and outer space devices.
These applications are not suitable to normal Tg FR4.
Pick the polyimide material option that best suits your needs when considering the layers of flex PCB.
However, the majority of PCB mass producers can only produce polyimide PCB with up to 10 layers.
The most popular ones are 4 and 6 layers, which are used in telecom and medical products
Polyimide materials are not more difficult to incorporate into PCBs, regardless of quality.
