Thermosetting resin composition and prepreg and metal foil-covered laminate made using same

A thermosetting resin composition and a prepreg and a metal foil-covered laminate made using same, the thermosetting resin composition comprising component (A): a solvent-soluble polyfunctional vinyl aromatic copolymer, the copolymer being a poly-functional vinyl aromatic copolymer having a stoctoal unit derived from monomers comprising divinyl aromatic compound (a) and ethyl vinyl aromatic compound (b); and component (B): a vinyl-containing organic silicone resin. The prepreg and metal foil-covered laminate made from the thermosetting resin composition have good toughness, and maintain a high glass transition temperature, a low water absorption, dielectric properties and humidity resistance, being suitable for the field of high-frequency and high-speed printed circuit boards and the processing of multilayer printed circuit boards.
