KEYNOTE: Tunable Dk/Df Liquid Crystal Polymers for Reliable 5G Connection

Abstract

Faster, reliable, and broad band 5G network connection is essential for reliable 5G connection. The new trend demands better material solution to enable more efficient, reliable, and smaller equipment and devices such as high performance small antenna. To meet the new trend, Celanese has launched tunable Dk/Df Zenite® LCP portfolio.
