[0107]

[0108] The performance tests of the epoxy encapsulating materials prepared in Examples 1-10 and Comparative Examples 1-5 are as follows:

[0109] (1) Glass transition temperature, test standard GB / T 40564-2021.

[0110] (2) Bending strength, test standard GB / T 40564-2021.

[0111] (3) Thermal conductivity, test standard GB / T 40564-2021.

[0112] (4) Continuous molding property, judgment standard: continuous molding for 300 times without mold stains is excellent; continuous molding for 300 times with mold stains is good; continuous molding for less than 300 times is general. A represents “excellent”, B represents “good”, and C represents “general”.

[0113] (5) Economy, the judgment standard is: the comprehensive cost is less than the ordinary EMC cost, which is excellent; the ordinary EMC cost is less than the comprehensive cost, which is less than 1.1 times of the ordinary EMC cost, which is good; the comprehensive cost is more than 1.1 times of the ordinary EMC cost, which is general.

[0114] The performance test results of the epoxy plastic encapsulating material prepared in Examples 1-10 and Comparative Examples 1-5 are shown in Table 3 below:

[0116]

[0117]

[0118] It should be noted that "\ " in Table 3 represents that the sample is not successfully prepared, and there is no test data.

[0119] From the test results, it can be found that the introduction of the liquid crystal type epoxy resin can effectively improve the thermal conductivity of the plastic encapsulating material by comparing Comparative Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-5. However, considering the process and economy, it is considered that the liquid crystal type epoxy resin A2-2 can balance the performance, process and economy. The influence of the filler content on the thermal conductivity can be summarized by comparing Comparative Example 2 and Examples 7-10. When the filler content is from 87.5% to 91%, good process and economy can be maintained, and the thermal conductivity can be up to 5.32 W / m·K. By comparing Comparative Examples 7-10 and Comparative Examples 2-5, it can be found that when the filler content is 87.5%, the formula can balance the process and economy, but the thermal conductivity is much lower than that of the liquid crystal type epoxy resin system formula with the same filler content. When the filler content exceeds 87.5%, the overall process of the formula is poor, and it is difficult to prepare the sample.

[0120] The high-thermal-conductivity epoxy plastic encapsulating material of the present application has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:

[0121] The conventional resin system epoxy plastic encapsulating material cannot meet the high thermal conductivity while balancing the reliability and good process formability. However, the high-thermal-conductivity epoxy plastic encapsulating material of the present application selects the liquid crystal type epoxy resin and spherical aluminum oxide filler to improve the thermal conductivity of the epoxy plastic encapsulating material and maintain good continuous formability, and selects the stress release agent to reduce the modulus, which balances the reliability, so that the epoxy plastic encapsulating material has good reliability and continuous formability while having high thermal conductivity.

[0122] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
