rolonged exposure in an oxidative environment may cause changes to the dielectric properties of hydrocarbon based materials. The rate of change increases at higher temperatures and is highly dependent
on the circuit design. Although Rogers’ high frequency materials have been used successfully in innumerable applications and reports of oxidation resulting in performance problems are extremely rare, Rogers
recommends that the customer evaluate each material and design combination to determine fi tness for use over the entire life of the end product.
The information in this data sheet is intended to assist you in designing with Rogers’ circuit materials. It is not intended to and does not create any warranties express or implied, including any warranty of
merchantability or fi tness for a particular purpose or that the results shown on this data sheet will be achieved by a user for a particular purpose. The user should determine the suitability of Rogers’ circuit
materials for each application.
