SABIC INTRODUCES NEW SUPERFLOW ULTEM™ RESINS TO ENABLE MINIATURIZATION FOR BURN IN TEST SOCKETS (BITS) AND CONNECTORS POWERING ELECTRONIC DEVICES
SABIC, a global leader in the chemical industry, is introducing two new grades in its portfolio of Superflow ULTEM™ resins that address the trend of electronic component miniaturization to enable smaller, lighter and more-sophisticated devices. Glass fiber-reinforced Superflow ULTEM SF2250EPR and SF2270 resins feature exceptional flow properties for molding burn-in test sockets (BiTS) used to stress-test integrated circuit (IC) chips. They can also potentially be used to mold thin-wall, high-precision, miniaturized connectors. Their signature flow properties help meet the challenges of complete mold filling and easy release in ever-smaller components.
