Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A PCB includes a base layer, a wiring pattern formed on a surface of the base layer, and a protecting layer formed on the wiring pattern. The protecting layer is formed by printing and solidifying an ink on the wiring pattern. The ink includes a cycloaliphatic epoxy resin, a phenoxyl resin solution, a solvent, a hardener, and an antifoaming agent.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A PCB comprising: a base layer; a wiring pattern formed on a surface of the base layer; and a protecting layer formed on the wiring pattern by printing and solidifying an ink on the wiring pattern, the ink comprising a cycloaliphatic epoxy resin, a phenoxyl resin solution, a solvent, a hardener, and an antifoaming agent, a mass percent of the cycloaliphatic epoxy resin being in a range of 28%-34%, a mass percent of the phenoxyl resin solution being in a range of 10%-20%, a mass percent of the solvent being in a range of 20%-39%, a mass percent of the hardener being in a range of 22%-26%, and a mass percent of the antifoaming agent being in a range of 0.5%-1%. 2. The PCB of claim 1 , wherein the phenoxyl resin solution is a solution with phenoxyl resin dissolved in carbitol acetate. 3. The PCB of claim 2 , wherein a mass percent of the phenoxyl resin in the phenoxyl resin solution is 40%. 4. The PCB of claim 1 , wherein the solvent is ethylene glycol monobutyl ether. 5. The PCB of claim 1 , wherein the hardener comprises a phenol aldehyde resin added thereto. 6. The PCB of claim 1 , wherein the wiring pattern comprises a conductive metal layer, a first blackening layer, and a second blackening layer, the first blackening layer and the second blackening layer are formed on two opposite surfaces of the conductive metal layer, respectively. 7. The PCB of claim 6 , further comprising an adhesive layer, the conductive metal layer being fixed connected to the base layer by the adhesive layer, and the first blackening layer be attached to the adhesive layer. 8. The PCB of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the base layer is in a range of 25-50 microns. 9. The PCB of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the protecting layer is in a range of 15-40 microns. 10. A method for manufacturing a PCB, comprising steps: providing a substrate, the substrate comprising a base layer and a conductive layer; selectively removing a portion of the conductive layer to form a wiring pattern; and printing an ink on the wiring pattern, the ink comprising a cycloaliphatic epoxy resin, a phenoxyl resin solution, a solvent, a hardener, and an antifoaming agent; solidifying the ink to form a protecting layer on the wiring pattern, a mass percent of the cycloaliphatic epoxy resin being in a range of 28%-34%, a mass percent of the phenoxyl resin solution being in a range of 10%-20%, a mass percent of the solvent being in a range of 20%-39%, a mass percent of the hardener being in a range of 22%-26%, and a mass percent of the antifoaming agent being in a range of 0.5%-1%. 11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the phenoxyl resin solution is a solution with phenoxyl resin dissolved in carbitol acetate. 12. The method of claim 11 , wherein a mass percent of the phenoxyl resin in the phenoxyl resin solution is 40%. 13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the solvent is ethylene glycol monobutyl ether. 14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the hardener comprises a phenol aldehyde resin added thereto. 15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the wiring pattern comprises a conductive metal layer, a first blackening layer, and a second blackening layer, the first blackening layer and the second blackening layer are formed on two opposite surfaces of the conductive metal layer, respectively. 16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the substrate comprises an adhesive layer, the conductive metal layer being fixed connected to the base layer by the adhesive layer, and the first blackening layer be attached to the adhesive layer. 17. The method of claim 10 , wherein a thickness of the base layer is in a range of 25-50 microns. 18. The method of claim 10 , wherein a thickness of the protecting layer is in a range of 15-40microns.
