Product Definition:
FR-4 is a type of fiberglass laminate used in printed circuit boards. It has good electrical and mechanical properties, making it ideal for use in high-frequency applications.
A1 Level:
A1 level is also known as alpha-level or first-order level. It is a type of polymeric film used in FR4 laminate and other electronic applications. A1 films are characterized by low moisture regain, high tensile strength, excellent dimensional stability and transparency under ultraviolet light.
A2 Level:
A2 level (Advancement of Polymer Level) is the second most important level after A1. It has a similar structure as that of A1 level, but contains higher percentage of monomer units and lower percentage of dimer and trimer units. The increase in demand for advanced laminates with high strength to weight ratio is expected to drive the market over the forecast period.
Application Insights:
The communication application segment led the global FR-4 laminate market in 2017. The growth of this segment can be attributed to increasing demand for smartphones and other communication devices among all age groups, especially in developing countries like India and China. Moreover, growing demand for wearable devices is also expected to contribute towards the overall growth over the forecast period.
