Abstract
Description
Resin compositions, cured products, dry films, films, laminated sheets, prepregs, printed circuit boards, and electronic equipment.
[0001] This disclosure relates to resin compositions, as well as cured products, dry films, films, laminated sheets, prepregs, printed circuit boards, and electronic devices formed using the resin compositions.
[0002] In recent years, the demand for high-capacity and high-speed communication has led to an increase in the use of electrical signals with higher frequencies than before, such as 10 GHz and above. It is generally known that transmission loss due to dielectric materials around the circuit increases as the frequency increases. To suppress transmission loss, polymer materials used in the semiconductor field, such as printed circuit board materials, interlayer insulating materials, and encapsulating resins used in semiconductor packages, require low dielectric loss tangent. Furthermore, when used in semiconductor material applications, processes such as solder reflow may be required, necessitating high-temperature resistance, for example, above 240°C.
[0003] As a material with excellent low dielectric loss tangent (hereinafter also referred to as low dielectric properties), cyclic olefin resins having an alicyclic skeleton in their molecules are expected to be used as semiconductor materials. For example, Patent Documents 1 and 2 describe the use of norbornene-based polymers as semiconductor materials. Patent Document 3 also describes the use of cyclic olefin resins obtained by polymerizing terpene-based compounds.
[0004] International Publication No. 98 / 56011, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2005-103949, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2008-208349
[0005] However, although norbornene-based polymers described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 have excellent low dielectric properties, they may have insufficient heat resistance. Therefore, polymers generally use functional groups or polar groups as constituent units. However, polymers containing such constituent units have high dielectric constants and dielectric loss tangents, making them unsuitable as materials for applications requiring high-frequency characteristics. Furthermore, there are compatibility issues with curable compounds such as maleimide and epoxy, leading to deterioration of heat resistance due to phase separation. In addition, cyclic olefin resins obtained by polymerizing terpene-based compounds described in Patent Document 3 have excellent dielectric properties, but they may deform or foam in high-temperature processes such as solder reflow, resulting in insufficient high-temperature heat resistance.
[0006] Therefore, the object of this disclosure is to provide a resin composition that achieves both low dielectric properties and high-temperature heat resistance, as well as a cured product, dry film, film, laminated sheet, prepreg, printed circuit board, and electronic device formed using the resin composition that achieve both low dielectric properties and high-temperature heat resistance.
[0007] As a result of diligent research, the present inventors have found that the above problems can be solved by the embodiments shown below, and have completed this disclosure. <1>: A resin composition comprising a cyclic olefin resin (A) having constituent units derived from at least one selected from α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene, and a curable compound (B), wherein the content of the cyclic olefin resin (A) is 0.5 to 50% by mass based on the total solid content in the resin composition. <2>: The resin composition according to <1>, wherein the cyclic olefin resin (A) has a total of 30 to 100 mol% of constituent units derived from at least one selected from α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene, based on the total constituent units. <3>: The resin composition according to <1> or <2>, wherein the cyclic olefin resin (A) further has constituent units derived from at least one selected from maleic acid derivatives and maleimide derivatives. <4>: The resin composition according to any one of <1> to <3>, wherein the cyclic olefin resin (A) has constituent units derived from β-pinene. <5>: The resin composition according to any one of <1> to <4>, wherein the cyclic olefin resin (A) has a number average molecular weight of 5,000 to 100,000. <6>: The resin composition according to any one of <1> to <5>, wherein the curable compound (B) includes at least one selected from maleimide resin, epoxy resin, cyanate ester resin, allyl group-containing compound, vinyl group-containing compound, and (meth)acrylate group-containing compound. <7>: A cured product obtained by curing the resin composition according to any one of <1> to <6>. <8>: A dry film made from the resin composition according to any one of <1> to <6>. <9>: A film obtained by curing the dry film according to <8>. <10>: A laminated sheet comprising a resin layer formed on a substrate using the resin composition according to any one of <1> to <6>. <11>: A prepreg obtained by impregnating a fibrous substrate with any of the resin compositions described in <1> to <6>. <12>: A printed wiring board comprising an electrical insulating layer formed from at least one selected from the dry film described in <8>, the film described in <9>, and the prepreg described in <11>, and a conductor layer provided on the electrical insulating layer.<13>: An electronic device equipped with a printed circuit board as described in <12>.
[0008] This disclosure provides excellent advantages, such as a resin composition that achieves both low dielectric properties and high-temperature heat resistance, and a cured product, dry film, film, laminated sheet, prepreg, printed circuit board, and electronic device formed using the resin composition that achieve both low dielectric properties and high-temperature heat resistance.
[0009] <Resin Composition> The resin composition of this disclosure (hereinafter also referred to as "this resin composition") comprises a cyclic olefin resin (A) having a constituent unit derived from at least one selected from α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene, and a curable compound (B). This resin composition is characterized in that the content of the cyclic olefin resin (A) is 0.5 to 50% by mass based on the total solid content in the resin composition. By including the above-mentioned predetermined range amount of the cyclic olefin resin (A) having the specific constituent unit, the low-polarity structure in this resin composition increases, and as a result, the dielectric loss tangent of the resin composition is sufficiently reduced, exhibiting excellent low dielectric properties. Furthermore, compatibility with the curable compound (B) is maintained, deformation at high temperatures is suppressed, and high-temperature heat resistance is exhibited. Moreover, α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene are plant-derived biomass raw materials, and the use of cyclic olefin resins using such raw materials is useful from the viewpoint of carbon neutrality and the realization of a circular economy. Embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below. This disclosure is not limited to the embodiments described below, and includes embodiments that are implemented in a manner that does not alter the essence of the disclosure.
[0010] <Cyclic Olefin Resin (A)> Cyclic olefin resin (A) has constituent units derived from at least one selected from α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene. Cyclic olefin resin (A) can be obtained by polymerizing a monomer containing at least one selected from α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene. The polymerization method for obtaining cyclic olefin resin (A) is not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected from known polymerization methods such as cationic polymerization using Lewis acids and coordination polymerization using metal complexes.
[0011] Examples of the cyclic olefin resin (A) include homopolymers of α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, or β-phellandrene, copolymers of any combination thereof, copolymers of at least one monomer selected from α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene with another monomer, and modified homopolymers or copolymers thereof. Among these, from the viewpoint of low dielectric properties and polymerization stability, it is preferable that the cyclic olefin resin (A) has constituent units derived from β-pinene.
[0012] Examples of monomers copolymerizable with the above-mentioned α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene include olefin monomers such as ethylene, propylene, butene, hexene, octene, butadiene, and isoprene; vinyl ether monomers such as methyl vinyl ether, methyl vinyl ether, butyl vinyl ether, and cyclohexyl vinyl ether; aromatic vinyl monomers such as styrene and methylstyrene; maleimide monomers such as cyclohexyl maleimide and phenyl maleimide; and maleic anhydride. In particular, from the viewpoint of thermal stability, the cyclic olefin resin (A) preferably contains constituent units derived from at least one selected from maleic acid derivatives and maleimide derivatives, and from the viewpoint of achieving both copolymerizability and low dielectric properties, it is preferable that the total amount of constituent units derived from maleic acid derivatives and maleimide derivatives is 0.1 to 67 mol%, and more preferably 50 to 67 mol%, based on the total constituent units.
[0013] In the cyclic olefin resin (A), the total amount of constituent units derived from at least one selected from the group consisting of α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene is preferably 30 mol% or more, more preferably 50 mol% or more, and even more preferably 80 mol% or more, based on the total constituent units of the cyclic olefin resin (A), from the viewpoint of low dielectric properties, high temperature heat resistance, and compatibility. For example, it may be 30 to 100 mol%. Including 30 mol% or more of constituent units having a ring structure derived from α-pinene, β-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-phellandrene provides further advantages in terms of low dielectric properties, high temperature heat resistance, and compatibility with the curable compound (B).
[0014] Modifications of the above-mentioned homopolymer or copolymer include, for example, hydrogenation, epoxidation, silylation, halogenation, and cyclopropanation. Among these, cyclic olefin resin (A) modified by hydrogenation, silylation, or cyclopropanation is preferred from the viewpoint of heat resistance and low dielectric properties. Furthermore, since epoxidation modification of cyclic olefin resin (A) enables crosslinking with curable compound (B), epoxidized cyclic olefin resin (A) is preferred from the viewpoint of compatibility with curable compound (B) and heat resistance.
[0015] The amount of carbon-carbon double bonds in the cyclic olefin resin (A) is preferably 6 mmol / g or less, more preferably 4 mmol / g or less, and even more preferably 2 mmol / g or less, from the viewpoint of thermal stability, and may be, for example, 0 mmol / g or more and 6 mmol / g or less. The amount of carbon-carbon double bonds can be adjusted by the modification described above. For example, when the cyclic olefin resin (A) is polyβ-pinene, which is a homopolymer of β-pinene, the amount of carbon-carbon double bonds is 7.3 mmol / g, and this value can be reduced by modification such as hydrogenation. The amount of carbon-carbon double bonds in the cyclic olefin resin (A) can be determined by iodine value titration, 1 This can be determined using the integral value of the signal of hydrogen atoms originating from alkenes in 1H-NMR. In the case of modification such as hydrogenation, 1The amount of carbon-carbon double bonds can also be determined from the decrease in the hydrogen atom peak originating from alkenes in 1H-NMR.
[0016] The number-average molecular weight of the cyclic olefin resin (A) is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of compatibility with the curable compound (B) and heat resistance, it is preferably 3,000 or more, more preferably 5,000 or more, and even more preferably 10,000 or more. Also from the same viewpoint, it is preferably 100,000 or less, more preferably 50,000 or less, and even more preferably 30,000 or less, and for example, it may be between 5,000 and 100,000. Having a number-average molecular weight of 3,000 to 100,000 allows for suppression of the resin's own mobility while maintaining compatibility with the curable compound (B), thereby suppressing deformation at high temperatures.
[0017] <Curable Compound (B)> The resin composition of this disclosure comprises a curable compound (B) having one or more reactive functional groups in its molecule. The reactive functional group may be a functional group capable of radical polymerization, anionic polymerization, or cationic polymerization, such as a maleimide group, epoxy group, allyl group, vinyl group, or (meth)acryloyl group, or it may be a functional group capable of condensation, such as a cyanate group. That is, as curable compound (B), for example, maleimide resin, epoxy resin, cyanate ester resin, allyl group-containing compound, vinyl group-containing compound, and (meth)acryloyl group-containing compound can be used. From the viewpoint of low dielectric properties, it is preferable that the curable compound (B) contains a vinyl group.

[0085] As shown in Tables 2 to 5, the resin compositions of this disclosure were confirmed to achieve both excellent low dielectric properties and high-temperature heat resistance. This is presumed to be due to the inclusion of a predetermined amount of cyclic olefin resin (A) having predetermined structural units. On the other hand, when olefin resins that do not have the predetermined structural units, such as norbornene copolymer or polypropylene, were used, it was confirmed that the high-temperature heat resistance was inferior, as shown in Comparative Examples 1 and 2. This is thought to be due to compatibility problems with the curable compound (B) caused by differences in the resin structure. Furthermore, Comparative Example 3 lacked proper control of resin polarity and exhibited inferior low dielectric properties.
[0086] As shown in the comparison between Example 2 and Examples 6-8, Example 3 and Examples 9-11 and 25-27, Example 4 and Examples 12-14, and Examples 2, 3, and 15 and Examples 16 and 17, it was confirmed that high-temperature heat resistance is improved when the amount of carbon-carbon double bonds is 6 mmol / g or less. As shown in the comparison between Examples 2 and 3 and Examples 18-20, it was confirmed that high-temperature heat resistance is improved when the cyclic olefin resin (A) has a constituent unit derived from at least one selected from maleic acid derivatives and maleimide derivatives.
[0087] As shown in the comparison between Example 2 and Examples 21-23, it was confirmed that the high-temperature heat resistance of the cyclic olefin resin (A) was improved by having a curable epoxy structure. This is presumed to be due to an improved degree of crosslinking.
[0088] As shown in the comparison between Examples 2 and 3 and Examples 31 and 32, it was confirmed that the high-temperature heat resistance improved as the proportion of curable compound (B) increased. This is presumed to be due to an increase in the crosslinking density in the resin composition.
[0089] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2024-158052, filed on 12 September 2024, and incorporates all of its disclosures herein.
