     We are considering using Polyimide Thermount for some of our
     applications where in the past we have used Polyimide MLB's with
     Cu/Invar/Cu or Cu/Moly/Cu foils or cores to achieve CTE's in the range
     of 8.0 to 11.0 PPM/ degree C. Our applications are primarily for use
     in the military aerospace environment. I would very much appreciate
     hearing from PWB fabricators and users of their experiences with using
     Thermount. Information that I would be interested in, but certainly
     not limited to would be the following:


     Handling
     Storage
     Conditioning
     Processing
     Rework
     Conformal coating
     Testing, Thermal & Environmental
     CTE data
     Applications (end use)
     Applications (SMT - leaded/leadless, device types/sizes)
