I have done this temperature soak a number of times with FR4 and do not find
any degradation of the assembly properties of the laminate except there is a
significant browning of the laminate. It looks like polyimide after baking.
There is s slight degrease in the surface resistance when subjected to
humidity. However, I have not tested flashover strength or arc resistance after baking.
