I believe it would look like a condition called crazing.
Crazing looks like the glass fibers have air pockets around each fiber.
In the cross sections you would see some wicking where the copper penetrates
the air crack and then the fibers turn white or silver colored.
This is a precursor to CAF or CFF type of growth.

Folks,
What I am asking is that if it is feasible for the woven fiber glass
cloth rods not to be conditioned to adhere to the resin system and what
would that anomaly look like in a cross section? Has anyone observed
laminate cross sections with such an animal? The observed anomaly
follows the glass rod curveature with no others flaws in the surrounding
laminate.

I used to work for Fiberglas Canada, which at that time was a wholly owned
subsidiary of Owens-Corning Fiberglas and Duplate Canada which was owned by
Duplate US which was owned by Pittsburg Plate Glass. I digress.
Anyways, when glass fibers are made the hot glass fibers are sprayed with a
silicone which bonds to the surface of the glass. If they did not do that
the glass fibers rubbing each other would score and break the glass. When
the glass fiber mats are put into the prepreg and then pressed and heated
there is bonding between the organic ends of the silicones sticking out from
the glass fibers.
CAF occurs when water hydrolyzes those links between the resin and silicone.

The prepreg is laminated together under a high pressure/high temp roller
process or press inside of an oven. I can assure you the resin sticks very
well to the individual glass strands in standard FR-4. I suppose it depends
on the brand and type.

Vic,
What makes you think the resin and glass stick to each other? Having worked
in a prepreg treater I can suggest that when they make this product a resin
pump forces resin through the glass and coats both sides. Once the resin is
cured it sticks to itself surrounding the glass bundles and holding them in
place.
I have my doubts that the resin to glass has much of a bond.

One should keep in mind that the method doesn't specify a pass/fail number!?

Eric,
Thanks for sharing. This shared Test Method will test for laminate
properly cures to specifications. Now the question is. Is there a Test
Method for evaluating the woven fiber glass cloth adhesion property to the
resin system,?

Board guru,
Is there a test method, IPC Standard, for testing how well a laminate has
been cured, IS415.
