According to the present invention, electronic components having low thermal expansion properties and excellent drilling processability and heat resistance, for example, a prepreg, a laminate plate, an interposer, etc., can be provided.
Description
Technical Field
The present invention particularly relates to a thermosetting resin composition suitable for use in electronic components and the like which have low thermal expansion and excellent drilling processability and heat resistance, a prepreg and a laminate using the composition, a laminate for wiring boards which requires drilling processing in the stage of production of wiring boards, a method for producing a varnish of the resin composition, and a prepreg and a laminate produced by the production method and suitable for use in semiconductor packages and printed wiring boards.
Background
In a wiring board used for a semiconductor package (hereinafter referred to as an "interposer"), a plurality of drilling processes are generally performed for interlayer connection of wirings. Therefore, the laminate for interposer is required to have high drilling workability.
However, conventionally, a curable resin composition composed of a bismaleimide compound and a cyanate resin has been widely used for a laminate for semiconductor packaging (for example, patent document 1). This is because the resin composition is excellent in heat resistance and therefore suitable as a resin composition for a laminate for semiconductor encapsulation which is exposed to high temperatures such as a reflow step in many cases at the time of mounting.
However, in recent years, as demands for reduction in thickness and weight of electronic devices have increased, reduction in thickness and increase in density of semiconductor packages have rapidly progressed, and even in laminated plates for semiconductor packages, higher characteristics have been demanded in a wide range of fields other than heat resistance.
Among these, in order to suppress an increase in warpage during mounting due to a reduction in thickness of a semiconductor package, it is strongly required to make the thermal expansion coefficient of a laminated plate for a semiconductor package close to that of a silicon chip, that is, to lower the thermal expansion.
Various methods are conceivable for reducing the thermal expansion of the laminate, but it is effective to reduce the thermal expansion of the resin itself for the laminate or to increase the filling of the inorganic filler in the resin composition. Therefore, it has been proposed to use a novolak type cyanate ester resin or to increase the content of an inorganic filler (for example, patent document 2).
However, the use of cyanate ester resins or the high filling of inorganic fillers reduces the machinability of the resin compositions, and there is a problem that the drilling workability of laminates using these resin compositions is significantly impaired.
Therefore, attempts have been made to prevent the reduction of the drilling processability by adding a plate-like filler such as calcined talc as an inorganic filler or reducing the content of the inorganic filler (for example, patent document 3), but there have been problems such that the effect of preventing the reduction of the drilling processability is insufficient or the warpage-suppressing effect of the semiconductor package is insufficient due to the low elasticity of the resin composition, and satisfactory results have not been obtained.
In order to reduce the thermal expansion of the laminate, it is effective to increase the content of a filler having a small thermal expansion coefficient, such as silica, in the inorganic filler in the resin composition for the laminate. However, if the content of a hard filler such as silica is increased, there is a problem that the drilling workability of the laminated plate is lowered.
In addition, in order to improve the drilling workability, an attempt has been made to add a metal dichalcogenide such as molybdenum disulfide as inorganic solid lubricant particles (for example, see patent document 4). However, when molybdenum disulfide is added, there is a problem that the electrical insulation of the laminate is significantly lowered, and satisfactory results cannot be obtained.
Therefore, in order to solve this problem, the present inventors have searched for additives that can suppress the deterioration of the drilling processability even with highly filled inorganic filler materials, and have found that molybdenum compounds have excellent effects.
However, since the molybdenum compound has a high specific gravity, if it is added directly to a resin composition varnish for laminate sheet production, it is likely to settle, which causes production defects. Therefore, it is recommended to use particles in which a molybdenum compound is supported on talc or the like (for example, Kemguard 911C manufactured by Sherwin Williams corporation) (for example, see patent document 1), but there are disadvantages that thickening occurs in a varnish of the resin composition, or aggregation between particles supported on a molybdenum compound is easily caused, and satisfactory results cannot be obtained.

Examples of the dry-process silica include pulverized silica, fumed silica, and fused spherical silica depending on the production method. Among them, fused spherical silica is preferable from the viewpoint of low thermal expansion and high fluidity when blended in a resin.
When fused spherical silica is used as silica, the average particle diameter is preferably 0.1 μm or more and 1 μm or less. By setting the average particle diameter of the fused spherical silica to 0.1 μm or more, the fluidity when blended in a resin can be favorably maintained, and by setting the average particle diameter to 1 μm or less, the wear of the drill blade at the time of drilling can be suppressed.

The content of silica is required to be 20 vol% or more and 60 vol% or less of the total amount of the resin composition. The content of silica is set to 20 vol% or more of the total amount of the resin composition, whereby the thermal expansion of the laminate can be reduced, and the moldability and the drilling processability can be favorably maintained by setting the content to 60 vol% or less.

The amount (parts by mass) used in table 1 is the amount of each component shown in parts by mass when the total amount of (a) the unsaturated maleimide compound having an acidic substituent and (B) the thermosetting resin is 100 parts by mass for the resin compositions of examples and comparative examples. However, in comparative example 2, since the maleimide compound (a) was not blended, the total blending amount of the thermosetting resin (B) and the cresol novolak type phenol resin was shown as 100 parts by mass.
As is clear from table 1, the examples of the present invention have a low soaking expansion ratio and excellent drilling workability and heat resistance.
On the other hand, comparative example 1 has a low thermal expansion coefficient and excellent heat resistance, but does not contain the molybdenum compound (D) of the present invention, and therefore, the drilling workability is significantly deteriorated.
In comparative examples 2 and 3, although the drilling processability was excellent, since the unsaturated maleimide compound (a) having an acidic substituent or the inorganic filler (C) of the present invention was not contained, the thermal expansion coefficient was high and the heat resistance was poor.
Examples 4, 6 and 7, and comparative example 4
In the formulations shown in tables 2 and 3, the thermosetting resin (E) and the curing agent (E) were completely dissolved in the organic solvent, and then the silica slurry (F) was added thereto and stirred until both were sufficiently mixed. Then, the molybdenum compound (G) was added in small amounts each time, the stirring was continued until the agglomerates disappeared, and finally the curing accelerator was added, and the stirring was continued for 1 hour to make the varnish entirely uniform.
The thus obtained thermosetting resin composition varnish was applied to E glass cloth (manufactured by Nindon textile Co., Ltd., WEA116E) having a thickness of 0.1mm by impregnation and then dried at 160 ℃ for 5 minutes to be semi-cured, thereby obtaining a prepreg having a resin composition ratio of 48 mass%.
A predetermined number of the prepregs were stacked to obtain a desired thickness, and electrolytic copper foils having a thickness of 12 μm (manufactured by Kogawa electric industries Co., Ltd., GTS-12) were disposed on both surfaces, and the resultant was pressed by vacuum at a temperature of: 185 ℃ and pressure: and then, the copper clad laminate was heated and pressed at 4MPa for 90 minutes to obtain a copper clad laminate.
Example 5 and comparative example 5
A copper-clad laminate was obtained in the same manner as in "examples 4, 6, and 7 and comparative example 4" except that, when a thermosetting resin composition varnish was mixed, the silica slurry (F) was added, and then the inorganic filler (aluminum hydroxide) was added before the molybdenum compound (G) was added, followed by sufficiently stirring and mixing.
Comparative examples 6 and 7
In the case of blending a thermosetting resin composition varnish, (F) a silica slurry was added, then an inorganic filler (calcined talc or molybdenum disulfide) was added, and the mixture was stirred until the aggregate disappeared, and finally a curing accelerator was added, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour to make the varnish uniform, and a copper-clad laminate was obtained in the same manner as in "examples 4, 6, 7 and comparative example 4".

The characteristics of the copper-clad laminates obtained in the above examples and comparative examples were measured and evaluated by the following methods. The measurement and evaluation results are shown in tables 4 and 5.
(1) Evaluation of drilling workability
A paper phenol board having a thickness of 0.4mm was placed on the upper side and a paper phenol board having a thickness of 1.5mm was placed on the lower side of a product obtained by stacking 2 copper-clad laminates having a thickness of 0.4mm, 6000 holes were drilled by a drill having a diameter of 0.2mm using a drill puncher [ Hitachi Via Mechanics, Ltd., ND-1V212 ] under conditions of a rotational speed of 160Krpm, a conveying speed of 1.8m/min and a cutting resistance of 11.25 μm/rev, and the amount of blade wear and hole position accuracy of the drill were measured by the following methods to evaluate the drilling workability.
a) Amount of wear of drill bit blade
The new product (before drilling) and the drill blade portion after drilling were observed from the center axis of the drilled hole using a scanning electron microscope (S-4700, manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd.), and the wear retraction amount of the blade tip was measured as the drill blade wear amount.
b) Hole location accuracy
In the copper-clad laminate having 2 sheets stacked, the amount of hole misalignment on the lower side (the side of the drilled hole outlet) of the 2 nd sheet was measured using a hole position accuracy measuring machine [ Hitachi ViaMechanics, Ltd., HT-1AM ], and the average of the amounts of hole misalignment hitting 4001 to 6000 (σ: standard deviation) was calculated as the hole position accuracy. If the hole position accuracy is 35 μm or less, there is no practical problem, and good results are obtained.
(2) Measurement of thermal expansion Rate
The copper foil of the copper-clad laminate having a thickness of 0.8mm was removed by an etching solution, and the laminate was cut into a size of 5mm square to prepare a test piece. The average linear thermal expansion coefficient in the longitudinal direction (the longitudinal direction of the glass cloth) of the test piece at 50 to 120 ℃ was measured at a temperature rise rate of 10 ℃/min using a TMA test apparatus (TA INSTRUMENTENTS Co., Ltd., TMA 2940). The closer the thermal expansion coefficient is to that of the silicon chip (4-5 × 10)-6/. degree. C.), the better the results.
(3) Measurement of electrical insulation
A round portion having a diameter of 20mm remaining on the copper foil on one surface of a copper-clad laminate having a thickness of 0.1mm was removed by an etching solution, and the laminate was cut into a size of 50mm square with the round portion at the center to prepare a test piece. The test piece was immersed in fluorinert (manufactured by Sumitomo 3M Co., Ltd.), and an insulation breakdown test was carried out using a voltage withstand meter (manufactured by Toyo electric wave industries Co., Ltd., PT-1011) at a voltage increase rate of 5kV/10 sec, and the insulation breakdown voltage was measured. If the dielectric breakdown voltage is 6kV or more, no problem arises in use, and good results are obtained.
(4) Evaluation of moldability
A copper-clad laminate having a thickness of 0.4mm was cut into a size of 5mm square, a mold was made with a mold resin, and the cut surface was polished to prepare a test piece for cross-section observation. The polished cross section of the test piece was polished with a Flatmilling apparatus (E-3200, manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd.), and then observed with a scanning electron microscope (S-4700, manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd.), to observe the presence or absence of voids and evaluate moldability.

On the other hand, as is clear from table 5, in comparative example 4, since the content of silica exceeds 60 vol% of the total amount of the resin composition, moldability is remarkably deteriorated, and drilling processability and electrical insulation are also deteriorated. In comparative example 5, since the content of silica is less than 20% by volume of the total amount of the resin composition, there is a problem that the thermal expansion coefficient is large. In comparative example 6, since the molybdenum compound of the present invention was not contained, the drilling workability was significantly deteriorated. Similarly, in comparative example 7, since molybdenum disulfide was contained instead of the molybdenum compound of the present invention, the electrical insulation was significantly deteriorated.

TABLE 7
As is clear from table 7, the examples of the present invention are excellent in all of the settleability of the resin composition varnish, the presence or absence of aggregates, and the drilling processability and thermal expansion rate of the copper-clad laminate.
On the other hand, in comparative example 8, since the average particle diameter of the silica particles in the slurry of (H) was large and the specific surface area was small, the settleability of the resin composition varnish was significantly deteriorated.
In comparative example 9, since the specific surface area of the silica particles in the slurry of (H) was large, aggregates remained in the resin composition varnish, and the accuracy of the pore position was slightly deteriorated. In comparative example 10, since the talc supporting the molybdenum compound was directly added to the resin varnish, the settleability of the resin composition varnish was deteriorated and aggregates remained. Further, the hole position accuracy is also slightly deteriorated. In comparative example 11, since the slurry of silica dispersed in a molybdenum compound was added to the inorganic filler slurry and then added to the resin varnish, aggregates remained in the resin composition varnish.
If a printed wiring board is produced in a state where aggregates remain in the varnish of the resin composition, abnormal precipitation or the like is likely to occur due to molybdenum plating during the production of the printed wiring board, and the reliability of the printed wiring board as an electronic device may be impaired, which is not preferable.
According to the present invention, a resin composition varnish in which the molybdenum compound is less likely to precipitate or aggregate can be produced, and by using the varnish, a prepreg or a laminate suitable for a semiconductor package or a printed wiring board can be obtained which has a low thermal expansion coefficient and high drilling processability.

In addition, the laminated plate for a wiring board of the present invention is excellent in drilling workability in the production of a wiring board, and can provide a laminated plate for a wiring board having excellent electrical insulation properties and low thermal expansion. Further, the varnish obtained by the method for producing a resin composition varnish of the present invention can provide a prepreg and a laminated plate having high drilling processability.
