Definitions

- the resin composition layer and the composite molded product obtained by the method for producing a resin composition layer of the present invention can be suitably used as a heat radiating material for, for example, a power semiconductor device.
- Hexagonal boron nitride is generally a thin plate-like crystal, and the thin plate has a high thermal conductivity in the plane direction, but the thin plate has a low thermal conductivity in the thickness direction. Therefore, when a thin plate-shaped boron nitride is blended in the heat radiating sheet, the boron nitride is oriented parallel to the sheet surface when the sheet is formed, so that sufficient thermal conductivity cannot be obtained in the thickness direction of the sheet.
- a cohesive boron nitride filler As a cohesive boron nitride filler, a coagulated boron nitride filler having a card house structure has been developed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Further, a cohesive boron nitride filler having a card house structure having a relatively large average particle size and hardly collapsing even when pressure is applied has been developed (see, for example, Patent Document 2). As for the card house structure, the cohesive boron nitride filler secures a heat conduction path due to the card house structure. Therefore, by including this in the heat radiating sheet, the heat conductivity in the thickness direction of the sheet becomes excellent. ..

Therefore, even if an external force is applied when forming the sheet, the card house structure does not easily collapse, the heat conduction path is maintained, heat can be dissipated in the thickness direction of the sheet, and excellent heat conductivity can be achieved.

It has been shown that a cured resin sheet laminate in a C-stage state, which is sandwiched between foils and has copper foils on both sides, is obtained.
- Patent Document 5 since the press pressure at the B stage is low in order to obtain the fluidity of the sheet, voids remain in the sheet and the withstand voltage becomes low. In Patent Document 5, the sheet becomes brittle due to the remaining voids, and it is necessary to further improve the handleability in order to increase the area.

Abstract
Description
討されている。六方晶の窒化ホウ素は一般に薄板状の結晶であり、その薄板の平面方向の
熱伝導率は高いが、薄板の厚さ方向の熱伝導率が低い。このため、放熱シートに薄板状の
窒化ホウ素を配合すると、シート化する際に窒化ホウ素はシート面に平行に配向すること
から、シートの厚さ方向には十分な熱伝導性が得られない。
凝集窒化ホウ素フィラーは、別途バインダーを使用することなく窒化ホウ素粒子が凝集している。そのため、シート化する際に外力がかかってもカードハウス構造は容易に崩壊せず熱伝導パスを維持し、シートの厚さ方向への放熱ができ、優れた熱伝導性を達成することができる(例えば特許文献3参照)。
シートの厚さ方向の熱伝導性を上げる成形方法として、シート内の凝集窒化ホウ素フィラー同士を面接触させることで熱伝導率を高める方法が知られている(例えば特許文献4参照)。
ドが残存する場合があり、絶縁性のさらなる改善が必要である。
特許文献4では、シートのハンドリング性の検討がなされておらず、大面積化のためにハンドリング性の向上が求められる。
本発明は、以下を要旨とする。

(a)キャリアフィルム及び該キャリアフィルム上に前記樹脂組成物を用いて形成したシートを、プレス温度が0℃以上110℃以下、プレス圧力が40MPa以上1000MPa以下の条件でプレス処理を行う工程
(b)(a)工程を経たシートを、プレス温度が70℃以上250℃以下、プレス圧力が3MPa以上100MPa以下の条件でプレス処理を行い、樹脂組成物層を得る工程
本発明において「シート」とは、本発明の樹脂組成物によりキャリアフィルム上に形成された膜状物をさし、これを硬化させて得られる本発明の樹脂組成物層とは区別される。
好ましい形態の一つは、本発明の樹脂組成物層の片面あるいは両面に、金属部を有した複合成形体である。
本発明の樹脂組成物は、凝集無機フィラー及び熱硬化性樹脂以外にも他の成分を含んでいてもよい。
本発明の樹脂組成物について説明する。
本発明の樹脂組成物は、凝集無機フィラーを含むものである。本発明の樹脂組成物は、製造される樹脂組成物層の熱伝導性の向上と線膨張係数の制御のために、凝集無機フィラーを多く含有することが好ましい。凝集無機フィラーを含むことで、後述の(a)工程、(b)工程で凝集無機フィラーが互いに接触することで変形し、面で接触することで熱伝導パスがより多く形成されて高熱伝導率になる傾向にある。凝集無機フィラーの凝集形態は走査型電子顕微鏡(SEM)により確認することができる。
本発明の樹脂組成物は、凝集無機フィラーに加え、凝集していない無機フィラー、有機フィラーを含有していてもよい。
金属炭化物の例としては、炭化ケイ素、炭化チタン、炭化タングステン等が挙げられる。
金属酸化物の例としては、酸化マグネシウム、酸化アルミニウム、酸化ケイ素、酸化カルシウム、酸化亜鉛、酸化イットリウム、酸化ジルコニウム、酸化セリウム、酸化イッテルビウム、サイアロン(ケイ素、アルミニウム、酸素、窒素からなるセラミックス)等が挙げられる。
金属窒化物の例としては、窒化ホウ素、窒化アルミニウム、窒化ケイ素等が挙げられる。
窒化ホウ素は、熱伝導性が高いが鱗片状で、鱗片の面方向には高い熱伝導性を示すが、面に垂直な方向には熱伝導が小さい。取扱いをよくするために鱗片を集めて球状に凝集させた凝集粒子を用いることが好ましい。凝集窒化ホウ素フィラーがキャベツのように積層されているものについては、面方向に整列させ、凝集粒子の径方向が熱伝導のよい方にすることが好ましい。凝集窒化ホウ素フィラーは、カードハウス構造を有していることがより好ましい。
新モース硬度が5以下であることで、樹脂組成物中に分散した粒子同士の接触が面接触になりやすく、粒子間の熱伝導パスが形成され、形成される樹脂組成物層の熱伝導が向上する傾向にある。
測定方法は、分散安定剤としてヘキサメタリン酸ナトリウムを含有する純水媒体中に凝集粒子を分散させた試料に対して、レーザー回折/散乱式粒度分布測定装置などを用いて測定する湿式測定法や、Malvern社製「Morphologi」を用いて測定する乾式測定法が挙げられる。
その他の凝集無機フィラーおよび凝集していない無機フィラーの体積平均粒子径についても同様である。
凝集無機フィラーの破壊強度は特に限定されないが、好ましくは300MPa以下であり、より好ましくは100MPa以下であり、さらに好ましくは50MPa以下であり、よりさらに好ましくは20MPa以下であり、特に好ましくは15MPa以下であり、最も好ましくは10MPa以下である。破壊強度が上記上限値以下であることで、プレス処理したときに凝集無機フィラーの凝集構造が変形し、凝集無機フィラー同士が面接触しやすくなる。
凝集無機フィラーの破壊強度の下限値は特に限定されないが、取り扱いを容易とする点から、2.5MPa以上が好ましく、より好ましくは3MPa以上であり、さらに好ましくは3.5MPa以上であり、特に好ましくは4MPa以上である。
凝集無機フィラーの弾性率は特に限定されないが、好ましくは10MPa以上であり、より好ましくは20MPa以上であり、さらに好ましくは30MPa以上であり、よりさらに好ましくは48MPa以上であり、特に好ましくは50MPa以上であり、最も好ましくは55MPa以上である。弾性率が上記下限値以上であれば、凝集無機フィラーがプレス圧力の方向に塑性変形し、凝集構造の崩れを抑制できる傾向にある。
凝集無機フィラーの弾性率の上限値は特に限定されないが、十分な変形が得られやすい点から、好ましくは5GPa以下であり、より好ましくは2GPa以下であり、さらに好ましくは1.5GPa以下であり、よりさらに好ましくは1GPa以下、特に好ましくは500MPa以下、とりわけ好ましくは300Mpa以下、最も好ましくは250Mpa以下である。

本発明の樹脂組成物層における凝集無機フィラーの含有量の上下限値の組み合わせは特に限定されないが、30質量%以上99質量%以下であることが好ましく、40質量%以上90質量%以下であることがより好ましく、50質量%以上80質量%以下であることが特に好ましい。
ここで、樹脂組成物中の固形分とは、樹脂組成物中の溶剤以外の全成分の合計をさす。

凝集していない無機フィラーの形状について制限はなく、球状、ウィスカー状、繊維状、板状等が挙げられる。
その他の凝集していない無機フィラーは、鱗片状の窒化ホウ素一次粒子等でもよく、その形状に限定されない。

凝集無機フィラー以外に用いる非凝集無機フィラーとしては球状フィラーが好ましく用いられる。
球状フィラーは新モース硬度が3.1以上、例えば5~10であるものが好ましい。
このような球状フィラーを前述の凝集無機フィラーと併用することにより、得られる樹脂組成物層の金属に対する接着力及び放熱性を高めることができる。
円形度はその投影画像を画像処理することによって測定することができる。円形度は例えばシスメックス社のFPIAシリーズ等で測定することができる。
凝集無機フィラーと共に、その他の凝集していない無機フィラーを併用する場合、本発明の樹脂組成物及び本発明の樹脂組成物層中の凝集無機フィラーとその他の凝集していない無機フィラーとの含有量比は特に限定されないが、質量比で99:1~1:99であることが好ましく、95:5~9:91であることがより好ましい。

エポキシ樹脂に含まれるオキシラン環(エポキシ基)は脂環式エポキシ基、グリシジル基のどちらでもよいが、反応速度もしくは耐熱性の観点から、グリシジル基であることが好ましい。
製膜性、低吸湿、柔軟性の観点から、本発明で用いるエポキシ樹脂には高分子量のエポキシ樹脂を含有することが好ましい。高分子量のエポキシ樹脂は、具体的には重量平均分子量が10,000以上のエポキシ樹脂であることが好ましく、15,000以上のエポキシ樹脂であることがより好ましい。高分子量のエポキシ樹脂は、重量平均分子量が200,000以下のエポキシ樹脂であることが好ましく、180,000以下であることがより好ましい。
エポキシ樹脂のエポキシ当量は、「1当量のエポキシ基を含むエポキシ樹脂の重量」と定義され、JIS K7236に準じて測定することができる。
本発明の樹脂組成物は、熱硬化性樹脂として分子量600以下で1分子中にエポキシ基を3つ以上有する多官能エポキシ樹脂を含有することがより好ましい。
多官能エポキシ樹脂を添加することにより、熱硬化後の樹脂組成物層の貯蔵弾性率を高くすることができる。それにより被着体である金属部の凹凸に樹脂組成物の硬化物が入り込んだ後、強固なアンカー効果を発現し、金属部と樹脂組成物層との接着性を向上させることができる。
本発明の樹脂組成物層の内、無機フィラーを除く樹脂成分の主成分が熱硬化性樹脂であることが好ましく、特にエポキシ樹脂を含むことが好ましい。ここで主成分とは、最も多い成分のことを指す。
熱硬化性樹脂の割合が上記範囲にあることで、低吸湿性、高弾性率、高靱性となると共に、反応制御が容易となり、高リフロー耐性、サイクル試験における高信頼性、高熱伝導率の効果を発現する傾向にある。
本発明の樹脂組成物層及び本発明の樹脂組成物の樹脂成分に占める重量平均分子量が600以下のエポキシ樹脂の含有量は5質量%以上であることが好ましく、10質量%以上であることがより好ましく、一方、90質量%以下であることが好ましい。
重量平均分子量が10,000以上の高分子量エポキシ樹脂と重量平均分子量が600以下のエポキシ樹脂との含有量比は質量比で1:18~18:1あることが好ましい。
高分子量エポキシ樹脂の含有量が上記下限以上であることで、本発明の樹脂組成物の製膜性が向上する傾向にあり、上記上限以下であることで本発明の樹脂組成物層の強度を優れたものにできる。
本発明の樹脂組成物及び樹脂組成物層は、凝集無機フィラー及び熱硬化性樹脂以外の他の成分を含んでいてもよい。その他の成分としては、例えば、前述の非凝集無機フィラー、有機フィラーの他、以下に示す硬化触媒、硬化剤、シランカップリング剤などの表面処理剤、還元剤等の絶縁性炭素成分、粘度調整剤、分散剤、チキソ性付与剤、難燃剤、着色剤、有機溶剤、熱可塑性樹脂等が挙げられる。
本発明の樹脂組成物は、硬化速度や硬化物の物性などを調整するために硬化触媒(熱硬化触媒)を含んでいてもよい。
これらは1種を単独で用いてもよく、2種以上を混合して用いてもよい。

熱硬化性樹脂中のエポキシ基の量に対して、硬化剤の反応基の含有量が上記下限値以上であることで、硬化速度の低減が抑制され、エポキシ基が残存し難くなり、形成される樹脂組成物層の強度向上や吸湿性の抑制効果を得られる傾向にある。エポキシ基に対する硬化剤の反応基の含有量が上記上限値以下であることで、形成される樹脂組成物層の弾性率が高くなる傾向にある。
本発明の樹脂組成物は分散剤を含んでいてもよい。分散剤が含まれていることで、均一な樹脂組成物層を形成することが可能となり、得られる樹脂組成物層の熱伝導性及び絶縁破壊特性を向上させることができる場合がある。

本発明の樹脂組成物は、後述の塗布工程における塗布性の向上のために、有機溶剤を含有していてもよい。
有機溶剤は、1種のみを用いてもよく、2種以上を併用してもよい。
本発明の樹脂組成物は、凝集無機フィラー、熱硬化性樹脂、及び必要に応じて添加されるその他の成分を撹拌や混練によって均一に混合することによって得ることができる。混合には、例えば、ミキサー、ニーダー、単軸又は二軸混練機等の一般的な混練装置を用いることができる。混合に際しては、必要に応じて加熱してもよい。

さらに、(a)工程を経たシートを(b)工程において、特定のプレス圧力及びプレス温度でプレス処理を行う。(a)工程後の熱硬化性樹脂の反応率を抑えた状態で(b)工程の特定のプレス処理を行うことで、接着性を向上することができ、(b)工程後の反応を充分に進めることで耐電圧と耐熱性が向上する。
また、(b)工程は(a)工程よりも高温のプレス温度とすることにより、硬化前の熱硬化性樹脂の流動性が増し、ボイドをさらに低減することができる。この(a)及び(b)工程を経ることで、耐電圧、接着性、耐熱性の向上した樹脂組成物層が得られる。
(a)工程は、キャリアフィルム上に本発明の樹脂組成物の層を形成したシートを、プレス温度が0℃以上110℃以下、プレス圧力が40MPa以上1000MPa以下の条件でプレス処理を行う工程である。
乾燥温度が上記上限以下であることで、シート中の熱硬化性樹脂の硬化が抑制され、その後のプレス工程で樹脂が流れ、ボイドを除去しやすくなる傾向にある。乾燥温度が上記下限以上であると、効果的に有機溶剤を取り除くことができる。
プレス時間が上記範囲であることで、ハンドリング性と金属部との接着性のよいシートが得られる傾向にある。
シート中の熱硬化性樹脂の反応率(A)は、(a)工程前後のシートの示差走査熱量測定(DSC)により、40℃から250℃まで10℃/minで昇温した際に得られる発熱ピークの発熱量から下記式により算出される。
反応率(A)(%)=(1-((a)工程後の発熱量/(a)工程前の発熱量))×100
シートの膜厚は接触型または非接触型の膜厚計を用いて測定できる。
(b)工程後の樹脂組成物層の膜厚(Fb)についても同様である。
ロールプレス処理を行うロール機の具体的な構成については特に限定されず、一対のニップロールを備えたタイプや多段ニップロールタイプなどの種々なロール機を用いることができる。ロールプレス処理を行うロール機としては、例えば、予熱するプレヒートロール(場合によってはなくてもよい)と、少なくとも一対のニップロールと、望ましくは、ニップロールを加熱する加熱手段を備えてなり、一対のニップロール間にシートを挟んで両面側から押圧することにより、シートの表面を加圧して平滑化するように構成された装置が挙げられる。
静水圧プレス機の具体的な構成は特に限定されない。例えば、オイルや水などの液体が満たされた圧力容器と、液体を加圧する加圧シリンダーと、液体を加圧する圧力を制御する制御手段と、液体を所定の温度に加熱する加熱手段とを具備するものなどが挙げられる。より具体的には、キャリアフィルム付きシートを真空パックし、静水圧プレス機のオイルや水などの液体に浸漬して静水圧プレスを行うことにより、シートが均一な圧力でプレスされ、シートの表面が平滑化されるように構成された装置等が挙げられる。
(b)工程は、(a)工程を経たシートを、プレス温度が70℃以上250℃以下、プレス圧力が3MPa以上100MPa以下でプレス処理を行い、樹脂組成物層を得る工程である。
シート中の熱硬化性樹脂の反応率(B)は、(a)工程前および(b)工程後のシートの示差走査熱量測定(DSC)により、40℃から250℃まで10℃/minで昇温した際に得られる発熱ピークの発熱量から下記式により算出される。
反応率(B)(%)=(1-((b)工程後の発熱量/(a)工程前の発熱量))×100
(a)工程及び(b)工程のプレス条件、シート及び樹脂組成物層の膜厚は、上述の範囲であれば特に限定されないが、特に以下の組み合わせであることが好ましい。
Tb>Taであり、且つ30℃≦Tb-Ta≦220℃
であることが好ましい。
Tb-Taは好ましくは30℃以上であり、より好ましくは40℃以上で、好ましくは220℃以下であり、より好ましくは200℃以下、さらに好ましくは180℃以下である。Tb-Taが上記範囲であることでシートのハンドリング性と樹脂組成物層の接着性が両立できる傾向にある。
Pa>Pbであり、且つPa/Pbが1.5以上50以下
であることが好ましい。
Pa/Pbは好ましくは1.5以上であり、より好ましくは1.8以上、さらに好ましくは2以上で、好ましくは50以下であり、より好ましくは45以下、さらに好ましくは40以下である。Pa/Pbが上記範囲であることで樹脂組成物層内のボイドを低減でき、凝集無機フィラーの形状が適度に維持されることで、耐電圧と熱伝導率に優れた樹脂組成物層を得ることができる。
Fb/Faは好ましくは0.7以上であり、より好ましくは0.8以上、さらに好ましくは0.85以上で、好ましくは1.2以下であり、より好ましくは1.1以下である。
Fb/Faが上記範囲であることは(a)工程後にシート内のボイドが効率よく低減され、(b)工程前後での膜厚変化が小さくなることを示しており、耐電圧と熱伝導率に優れた樹脂組成物層を得られる傾向にある。
本発明の樹脂組成物層の熱伝導率及び耐電圧は特に限定されないが、熱伝導率は、8W/mK以上であることが好ましく、9W/mK以上であることがより好ましく、10W/mK以上であることがさらに好ましい。
本発明の樹脂組成物層の耐電圧は、30kV/mm以上であることが好ましく、35kV/mm以上であることがより好ましく、40kV/mm以上が特に好ましい。
本発明における熱伝導率及び耐電圧の測定方法は特に限定されないが、後掲の実施例に示す方法が挙げられる。
本発明の複合成形体は、本発明の樹脂組成物層と金属部とが積層一体化されてなるものである。金属部は、本発明の樹脂組成物層の一つの面にのみ設けられていてもよく、2以上の面に設けられてもよい。例えば、樹脂組成物層の一方の面にのみ金属部を有するものであってもよく、両面に金属部を有するものであってもよい。また、金属部は、パターニングされていてもよい。
本発明の複合成形体は半導体デバイスとして用いることができる。特に、高温で作動させることにより高出力・高密度化が可能なパワー半導体デバイスにおいて有効に用いることができる。
