Bakelite Sheet

Bakelite sheet, also known as Bakelite board, Norplex board, Micarta board, phenolic board, Phenolic board, laminated board, and SRBF (Synthetic Resin Bonded Fabric), is a dense material. It is made by applying heat and pressure to layers of cellulose paper or fabric impregnated with synthetic resin (phenolic resin). During the application of heat and pressure, a polymerization reaction converts the layers into a thermosetting industrial laminate board. Phenolic laminate boards have extremely high durability, not only for electrical performance but also for heat and chemical resistance. Therefore, they are particularly suitable for emerging electrical and automotive industries.
