[0047] The embodiments for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter referred to as "this embodiment") will be described in detail below. The following embodiments are illustrative examples of the present invention and do not limit the scope of the invention. The present invention can be implemented with appropriate modifications within its scope. In this embodiment, preferred provisions can be arbitrarily adopted, and combinations of preferred provisions can be considered more preferred. In this embodiment, the term "XX~YY" refers to "XX or more and YY or less".

[0048] In this embodiment, "(meth)acrylate" refers to both "acrylate" and "methacrylate". The same applies to other similar terms ("(meth)acrylic acid", "(meth)acryloyl", etc.).

[0049] 1. Photosensitive polyimide resin composition

[0050] The photosensitive polyimide resin composition of this embodiment comprises a cyclic polyimide resin (A) and a multifunctional radical polymerizable compound (B). The cyclic polyimide resin (A) has the structure shown in formula (1). The multifunctional radical polymerizable compound (B) has radical polymerizable functional groups and oxoalkylene groups. The number of radical polymerizable functional groups in the multifunctional radical polymerizable compound (B) is 3 or more and 100 or less. The total number of moles of oxoalkylene groups added in the multifunctional radical polymerizable compound (B) is 5 or more and 100 or less.

[0051]

[0052] In formula (1) above, R is a tetravalent group having a cyclic structure, an acyclic structure, or a combination of cyclic and acyclic structures with 4 to 10 carbon atoms. A is a divalent group having at least one group selected from the group consisting of aliphatic hydrocarbon groups, alicyclic hydrocarbon groups, aromatic hydrocarbon groups, and organosiloxane groups, and having 2 to 39 carbon atoms. The main chain of A may optionally contain at least one group selected from the group consisting of -O-, -SO2-, -CO-, -CH2-, -C(CH3)2-, -C2H4O-, and -S-. n represents the number of repeating units. The end of formula (1) above is any of the groups or hydrogen atoms shown in formula (2) or formula (3) below, and at least one end is a group shown in formula (2) or formula (3) below.

[0053]

[0054] In equations (2) and (3) above, X and X 2 Each is an independent group having 2 or more but less than 15 carbon atoms, and may be selected from at least one group consisting of ester bonds and double bonds. Y and Y 2 Each can be a hydrogen atom or a methyl group independently.

[0055] The photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment is a composition containing a closed-ring polyimide resin (A) and a multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B), and exhibits an excellent balance between thick-film heat resistance and thick-film flexibility. The closed-ring polyimide resin (A) has the structure shown in formula (1) above, and the multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B) has 3 or more and 100 or less free radical polymerizable functional groups and oxoalkylene groups with a total addition molar number of 5 or more and 100 or less. Furthermore, the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment exhibits an excellent balance between thick-film heat resistance and thick-film flexibility, thus effectively suppressing the occurrence of cracks, defects, and breakage in the resulting resin film.

[0056] In this embodiment, "excellent heat resistance of thick film" means that when a resin film with a thickness of, for example, 20 μm or more is formed, the glass transition temperature is high. Furthermore, in this embodiment, "excellent flexibility of thick film" means that when a resin film with a thickness of, for example, 20 μm or more is formed, the elongation at break is high.

[0057] The photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment achieves an excellent balance between thick-film heat resistance and thick-film flexibility by containing a cyclic polyimide resin (A) and a multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B). The cyclic polyimide resin (A) has the structure shown in formula (1) above, and the multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B) has 3 or more and 100 or less free radical polymerizable functional groups and oxoalkylene groups with a total addition molar number of 5 or more and 100 or less. The reason for this is not yet certain, but the following can be considered.

[0058] It can be considered that: First, the closed-ring polyimide resin (A) with the structure shown in the above formula (1) has excellent transparency. Therefore, even if the resin film is thickened, the light during exposure can easily reach the lower part of the film, which can make the resin film crosslink more uniformly and the thick film has excellent curing properties. Furthermore, by combining it with a multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B), the crosslinking density of the resin film is increased, which can improve the heat resistance of the thick film.

[0059] Furthermore, the closed-ring polyimide resin (A) is a resin whose imidization is already complete, therefore a dehydration and ring-closure process is not required. Therefore, it can be considered that by combining it with a polyfunctional radical polymerizable compound (B) containing oxyalkylene groups, the curing shrinkage of the resin film during exposure can be suppressed, thereby improving the flexibility of the thick film. Here, while using a polyfunctional radical polymerizable compound containing oxyalkylene groups can improve the flexibility of the resulting resin film, there is a tendency for a decrease in the heat resistance of the resin film. However, it can be considered that by using a polyfunctional radical polymerizable compound (B) with radical polymerizable functional groups and a total addition molar number within the aforementioned range, the crosslinking structure of the resulting resin film becomes a structure that strikes a good balance between heat resistance and flexibility, thus both suppressing the decrease in the heat resistance of the resin film and improving its flexibility.

[0060] In summary, it can be concluded that the photosensitive polyimide resin composition according to this embodiment, by combining the closed-ring polyimide resin (A) with the multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B), can improve the balance between the heat resistance and flexibility of the thick film.

[0061] [Closed-ring polyimide resin (A)]

[0062] The closed-ring polyimide resin (A) described in this embodiment has the structure shown in the following formula (1).

[0063]

[0064] In formula (1) above, R is a tetravalent group having a cyclic structure, an acyclic structure, or a combination of cyclic and acyclic structures with 4 to 10 carbon atoms. A is a divalent group having at least one group selected from the group consisting of aliphatic hydrocarbon groups, alicyclic hydrocarbon groups, aromatic hydrocarbon groups, and organosiloxane groups, and having 2 to 39 carbon atoms. The main chain of A may optionally contain at least one group selected from the group consisting of -O-, -SO2-, -CO-, -CH2-, -C(CH3)2-, -C2H4O-, and -S-. n represents the number of repeating units. The end of formula (1) above is any of the groups or hydrogen atoms shown in formula (2) or formula (3) below, and at least one end is a group shown in formula (2) or formula (3) below.

[0065]

[0066] In equations (2) and (3) above, X and X 2 Each is an independent group having 2 or more but less than 15 carbon atoms, and may be selected from at least one group consisting of ester bonds and double bonds. Y and Y 2 Each can be a hydrogen atom or a methyl group independently.

[0067] R in formula (1) above preferably has at least a cyclic structure. Examples of such cyclic structures include tetravalent groups formed by removing four hydrogen atoms from cyclohexane, cyclopentane, cyclobutane, dicyclopentane, and their stereoisomers. More specifically, examples of such tetravalent groups include groups shown in the following structural formula.

[0068]

[0069] [In the formula, * represents a connector.]

[0070] Of the above, the preferred option is a tetravalent group formed by removing four hydrogen atoms from cyclohexane.

[0071] In formula (1) above, A is a divalent group having at least one group selected from the group consisting of aliphatic hydrocarbon groups, alicyclic hydrocarbon groups, aromatic hydrocarbon groups, and organosiloxane groups, and having 2 or more carbon atoms and 39 or fewer carbon atoms. The main chain of A may optionally contain at least one group selected from the group consisting of -O-, -SO2-, -CO-, -CH2-, -C(CH3)2-, -C2H4O-, and -S-.

A preferably has a cyclic structure, more preferably has at least one selected from alicyclic hydrocarbon groups and aromatic rings. A more preferably has an aromatic ring as an aromatic hydrocarbon group. More specifically, divalent groups with 6 or more and 27 or fewer carbon atoms as shown in the following structural formulas may be preferred.

[0073]

[0074] In the formula, * represents a connector key.

[0075] As a divalent group having 2 or more and 39 or less carbon atoms as shown in A, it is more preferably to include at least one of the groups selected from the group consisting of the structures shown below.

[0076]

[0077] In the formula, * represents a connector key.

[0078] As a divalent group with 2 or more and 39 or fewer carbon atoms as shown in A, it is even more preferable to include at least one group (Ia) selected from the group consisting of the structures shown below.

[0079]

[0080] In the formula, * represents a connector key.

[0081] As a divalent group with 2 or more and 39 or fewer carbon atoms as shown in A, it is even more preferable to include at least one group (Ib) selected from the group consisting of the structures shown below.

[0082]

[0083] In the formula, * represents a connector key.

[0084] As a divalent group with 2 or more and 39 or less carbon atoms as shown in A, it is even more preferable to include the following formula (Ic).

[0085]

[0086] [In the formula, * represents a connector.]

[0087] From the viewpoint of solubility relative to the developer (hereinafter also simply referred to as "developer solubility"), in the closed-ring polyimide resin (A) described in this embodiment, the ratio of at least one structural unit selected from (Ia), (Ib) and (Ic) as A in the above formula (1) is preferably 60 mol% or more.

[0088] The ratio of at least one structural unit selected from (Ia), (Ib) and (Ic) in A of formula (1) above is more preferably 70 mol% or more, more preferably 80 mol% or more, more preferably 95 mol% or more, and more preferably 100 mol% in particular. Preferably, the structural unit derived from diamine shown in formula (Ic) is included in the above ratio.

[0089] Regarding n, which represents the number of repeating units of the structural unit shown in formula (1) above, from the viewpoint of further improving the mechanical properties of the obtained resin film, it is preferably 5 or more, more preferably 10 or more, and even more preferably 15 or more. From the viewpoint of further improving the developer solubility of the obtained photosensitive polyimide resin composition, it is preferably 250 or less, more preferably 200 or less, and even more preferably 150 or less.

[0090] The closed-ring polyimide resin (A) described in this embodiment has any of the groups or hydrogen atoms shown in formula (2) or formula (3) above at its ends, and at least one end is a group shown in formula (2) or formula (3) above. The closed-ring polyimide resin (A) may have the structure shown in formula (2) or formula (3) above at one end, or it may have the structure shown in formula (2) or formula (3) above at both ends.

[0091] X or X in equation (2) or equation (3) above 2 The indicated group is a group with 2 or more but less than 15 carbon atoms, and may be selected from at least one group consisting of ester bonds and double bonds. Y or Y 2 The groups shown are hydrogen atoms or methyl groups.

[0092] More specifically, the structures shown in formula (2) or (3) above are structures obtained by reacting the terminal amine of a polyimide resin with a compound containing a functional group. Examples of such compounds containing functional groups include compounds having an isocyanate group or an epoxy group and a (meth)acryloyl group. Examples of such compounds include, for instance, 2-isocyanoethyl methacrylate, 2-isocyanoethyl acrylate, 1,1-bis(acryloyloxymethyl)ethyl isocyanate, glycidyl methacrylate, glycidyl acrylate, and allyl glycidyl ether. The structures shown in formula (2) or (3) above can be structures obtained by reacting the compound with the amine terminal of a polyimide resin.

[0093] Regarding the weight-average molecular weight of the ring-closed polyimide resin (A), from the viewpoint of further improving the developer solubility and thick film developability of the photosensitive polyimide resin composition, it is preferably 70,000 or less, more preferably 60,000 or less, more preferably 50,000 or less, further preferably 45,000 or less, further preferably 40,000 or less, and further preferably 35,000 or less. From the viewpoint of further improving the mechanical properties of the resulting resin film, it is preferably 5,000 or more, more preferably 10,000 or more, further preferably 13,000 or more, and further preferably 15,000 or more. By keeping the weight-average molecular weight of the ring-closed polyimide resin (A) within the above range, the developer solubility can be improved, thus further reducing the residual film rate of the unexposed portion and further improving the developability of the photosensitive polyimide resin composition. Here, the above-mentioned weight-average molecular weight is the weight-average molecular weight converted from polystyrene.

[0094] The photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment exhibits an excellent balance of thick film developability, thick film heat resistance, and thick film flexibility by containing a cyclic polyimide resin (A) and a multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B). The cyclic polyimide resin (A) has the structure shown in formula (1) above and has a weight-average molecular weight of 70,000 or less. The multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B) has 3 or more and 100 or less free radical polymerizable functional groups and oxyalkylene groups with a total addition molar number of 5 or more and 100 or less. The reason for improved thick film developability is not yet certain, but the following can be considered.

[0095] First, the greater the difference in developer solubility between the exposed and unexposed areas, the better the development performance. To improve development performance, it is important to increase the difference in developer solubility between the exposed and unexposed areas.

[0096] It can be assumed here that the developer solubility of the closed-ring polyimide resin (A) with the structure shown in the above formula (1) and a weight average molecular weight of less than 70,000 is high. Therefore, even if the resin film is thickened, the developer solubility of the unexposed part is still high.

[0097] In addition, it can be considered that the closed-ring polyimide resin (A) with the structure shown in formula (1) above has excellent transparency. Therefore, even if the resin film is thickened, the exposure time can easily reach the lower part of the film, which can make the resin film crosslink more uniformly. Furthermore, by combining it with a multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B), the crosslink density of the resin film is increased, which can reduce the solubility of the developer in the exposed part.

[0098] In summary, it can be concluded that the photosensitive polyimide resin composition according to this embodiment, by combining the closed-ring polyimide resin (A) with the multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B), can increase the difference in developer solubility between the exposed and unexposed areas, thereby improving the developability of thick films.

[0099] The closed-ring polyimide resin (A) can be obtained by reacting the diamine component, as detailed below, with the tetracarboxylic acid component.

[0100] <Diamine component>

[0101] Examples of diamine components include diamines, diisocyanates, and diaminodisilanes, with diamines being preferred. The diamine content in the diamine component used as a raw material is preferably 50 mol% or more, more preferably 70 mol% or more, further preferably 90 mol% or more, even more preferably 95 mol% or more, and most preferably 100 mol% or less.

[0102] The aforementioned diamine can be any of aliphatic and aromatic diamines, or a mixture thereof. In this embodiment, "aromatic diamine" refers to a diamine with an amino group directly bonded to an aromatic ring, and a portion of its structure optionally includes an aliphatic group, an alicyclic group, or other substituents. "Aliphatic diamine" refers to a diamine with an amino group directly bonded to an aliphatic or alicyclic group, and a portion of its structure optionally includes an aromatic group or other substituents.

[0103] Generally, if aliphatic diamines are used as raw materials for polyimide resins, the polyamic acid, as an intermediate product, forms a strong complex with the aliphatic diamine, making it difficult to obtain high molecular weight polyimides. Therefore, improvements are needed, such as using solvents with high solubility for the complex, like cresol. If cyclohexanetetracarboxylic acid, cyclobutanetetracarboxylic acid, or their derivatives are used as the tetracarboxylic acid component, a weaker complex is formed between the polyamic acid and the aliphatic diamine, thus making it easier to achieve high molecular weight polyimides. As for the diamine, if a diamine with fluorinated substituents is selected as the raw material, the resulting polyimide resin exhibits excellent transparency and is therefore preferred.

[0104] Examples of aliphatic diamines include 4,4'-diaminodicyclohexylmethane, ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine, polyethylene glycol bis(3-aminopropyl) ether, polypropylene glycol bis(3-aminopropyl) ether, 1,3-bis(aminomethyl)cyclohexane, 1,4-bis(aminomethyl)cyclohexane, m-phenylenediamine, p-phenylenediamine, isophorone diamine, norbornene diamine, and siloxane diamines.

[0115] <Manufacturing Method of Closed-Ring Polyimide Resin (A)>

[0116] The closed-loop polyimide resin (A) described in this embodiment can be obtained by, for example, a manufacturing method including the following steps (1) and (2).

[0117] Process (1): The tetracarboxylic acid component reacts with the diamine component to obtain a polyimide resin with amino groups at the ends.

[0118] Step (2): The polyimide resin with an amino group at the end obtained in step (1) above reacts with the above-mentioned compound containing a functional group (a compound having an isocyanate group or an epoxy group and a (meth)acryloyl group).

[0119] (Process (1))

[0120] In step (1), a tetracarboxylic acid is reacted with a diamine component to obtain a polyimide resin with an amino group at the end.

[0121] The organic solvent used to react the tetracarboxylic acid component with the diamine component is not particularly limited, but is preferably an organic solvent comprising, for example, at least one selected from the group consisting of cyclic ethers, cyclic ketones, cyclic esters, amides, and ureas. Specific examples of suitable solvents are not particularly limited, but include at least one selected from the group consisting of aprotic polar organic solvents such as γ-butyrolactone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide, hexamethylphosphoramide, cyclopentanone, cyclohexanone, 1,3-dioxane, 1,4-dioxane, tetramethylurea, and tetrahydrofuran. More preferably, it is one or more selected from the group consisting of γ-butyrolactone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone.

[0122] When reacting the tetracarboxylic acid component with the diamine component in step (1), an imidization catalyst may be used. The imidization catalyst is preferably a tertiary amine compound, and specifically, at least one selected from the group consisting of trimethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, tributylamine, triethanolamine, N,N-dimethylethanolamine, N,N-diethylethanolamine, triethylenediamine, N-methylpyrrolidine, N-ethylpyrrolidine, N-methylpiperidine, N-ethylpiperidine, imidazole, pyridine, quinoline, and isoquinoline may be used.

[0123] The reaction temperature in step (1) is, for example, in the range of 160°C or higher and 230°C or lower, preferably in the range of 170°C or higher and 210°C or lower, and more preferably in the range of 180°C or higher and 200°C or lower. If the reaction temperature in step (1) is above or above the lower limit mentioned above, imidization and molecular weight increase can be carried out more effectively. If the reaction temperature in step (1) is below or above the upper limit mentioned above, the solution viscosity can be maintained more appropriately, and adverse conditions such as resin scorching on the walls of the reaction vessel can be further avoided. Depending on the situation, azeotropic dehydrating agents such as toluene and xylene can be used. The reaction pressure is usually atmospheric pressure, but the reaction can also be carried out under pressure as needed. The holding time of the reaction temperature is preferably 1 hour or more, more preferably 3 hours or more. If the holding time of the reaction temperature is above or above the lower limit mentioned above, imidization and molecular weight increase can be carried out more effectively. Regarding the reaction time, there is no particular upper limit, and it can be carried out in the range of, for example, 10 hours or less.

[0124] In step (1), the reaction preferably occurs within a range of 0.80 ≤ A / B ≤ 0.99 for the tetracarboxylic acid component "A moles" and the diamine component "B moles", and more preferably within a range of 0.85 ≤ A / B ≤ 0.97. By setting A / B ≤ 0.99, the polyimide ends can exhibit an excess of diamine, resulting in a polyimide resin with amino groups at the ends, and a polyimide resin with a molecular weight that provides sufficient developer solubility. If the ratio is 0.80 ≤ A / B, a polyimide resin with a molecular weight exhibiting sufficient flexibility can be obtained.

[0125] Since a higher molecular weight polyimide resin can be obtained when the A / B ratio is closer to 1.0, the target molecular weight polyimide resin can be obtained by appropriately adjusting the A / B ratio.

[0126] <Process (2)>

[0127] Step (2) is a step of modifying the ends of the polyimide resin obtained in step (1) above. Specifically, as described above, the polyimide is reacted with the above-mentioned compound containing a functional group (a compound having an isocyanate group or an epoxy group and having a (meth)acryloyl group) to obtain a polyimide resin having a (meth)acryloyl group at the end.

[0128] Compounds containing functional groups that modify the ends of polyimide resins are compounds having isocyanate or epoxy groups and (meth)acryloyl groups. Specifically, examples include 2-isocyanoethyl methacrylate, 2-isocyanoethyl acrylate, 1,1-bis(acryloyloxymethyl)ethyl isocyanate, glycidyl methacrylate, glycidyl acrylate, and allyl glycidyl ether. These functional group-containing compounds can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Preferably, the functional group-containing compound is used in a ratio of 0.1 to 30 molar times relative to the polyimide resin having an amino group at the end.

[0129] The reaction temperature in step (2) is preferably above 30°C and below 100°C, and the reaction time is preferably above 1 hour and below 10 hours.

[0130] When reacting the amino terminus of a polyimide resin with the isocyanate or epoxy groups of a functionalized compound, the reaction can be carried out directly or, if necessary, in the presence of a catalyst. Examples of catalysts include amine compounds such as triethylamine and organophosphorus compounds such as triphenylphosphine; these can be used alone or in combination of two or more. To suppress side reactions during the reaction, polymerization inhibitors can be used. Examples of polymerization inhibitors include hydroquinone, hydroquinone monomethyl ether, and methyl hydroquinone; these can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0131] When the total solid content of the photosensitive polyimide resin composition is set to 100% by mass, from the viewpoint of further improving the patternability of thick films, the content of the closed-ring polyimide resin (A) in the photosensitive polyimide resin composition of this embodiment is preferably 30% by mass or more, more preferably 40% by mass or more, even more preferably 50% by mass or more, even more preferably 60% by mass or more, and preferably 90% by mass or less, more preferably 80% by mass or less, and even more preferably 70% by mass or less.

[0132] In this embodiment, the term "all solid components" in the photosensitive polyimide resin composition refers to the components that remain as solid components when the photosensitive polyimide resin composition is cured, excluding components that evaporate upon heating, such as solvents. On the other hand, even liquid components include those that enter the resin film during heat curing, which are also included in the total solid components.

[0163] Here, the 30μm thick resin film is obtained by the following method.

[0164] First, the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment is coated onto a substrate such as a silicon wafer to achieve a film thickness of 30 μm after solvent removal. Next, the photosensitive polyimide resin composition formed on the substrate is pre-baked (dried) at 100°C for 5 minutes. Then, the cumulative irradiation dose (calculated based on an illuminance of 365 nm) is 250 mJ / cm². 2 Above 5,000 mJ / cm 2 The optimal exposure range is achieved by irradiating the substrate with light from a high-pressure mercury lamp that has cut off wavelengths less than 365 nm. After standing at room temperature for 15 minutes, the substrate is immersed in water, and the resin film is peeled off from the substrate. The resulting product is then heat-treated at 200°C for 2 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere.

[0167] Here, the 30μm thick resin film is obtained by the following method.

[0168] First, the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment is coated onto a substrate such as a silicon wafer to achieve a film thickness of 30 μm after solvent removal. Next, the photosensitive polyimide resin composition formed on the substrate is pre-baked (dried) at 100°C for 5 minutes. Then, the cumulative irradiation dose (calculated based on an illuminance of 365 nm) is 250 mJ / cm². 2 Above 5,000 mJ / cm 2 The optimal exposure range is achieved by irradiating the substrate with light from a high-pressure mercury lamp that has cut off wavelengths less than 365 nm. After standing at room temperature for 15 minutes, the substrate is immersed in water, and the resin film is peeled off from the substrate. The resulting product is then heat-treated at 200°C for 2 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere.

[0169] In this embodiment, the optimal exposure level refers to: 250 mJ / cm². 2 Above 5,000 mJ / cm 2 Within the following range, with multiple different cumulative radiation doses (250 mJ / cm²) 2 1,500 mJ / cm 2 2,000 mJ / cm 2 4,000 mJ / cm 2 and 5,000 mJ / cm 2 When these 5 points are exposed, the cumulative irradiation dose achieves the best balance between thick film curing properties, thick film flexibility, and thick film heat resistance.

[0170] The photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment is not particularly limited and can be obtained, for example, by mixing at least one of the group consisting of a photopolymerization initiator, a solvent, an adhesion improver, a surface conditioner, and a sensitizer as needed into a closed-ring polyimide resin (A) and a multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B).

That is, the resin film described in this embodiment is formed from the photosensitive polyimide resin composition or a cured product of the photosensitive polyimide resin composition.

[0173] The aforementioned resist layer is composed of a resin film obtained, for example, by coating a substrate with the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment and removing the solvent as needed.

[0174] The aforementioned permanent film is composed of a cured film, which is obtained by exposing and developing the aforementioned resin film to form a desired shape and then curing it using heat treatment or the like.

[0175] Permanent films can be suitable for use as insulating films such as surface protective films and interlayer insulating films.

[0176] A surface protective film refers to an insulating film formed on the surface of an electronic component, electronic device, or wiring on a wiring substrate, and used to protect that surface. There is no particular limitation on the type of surface protective film. Examples of such surface protective films include passivation films or buffer coatings disposed on semiconductor elements, or top coatings disposed on flexible substrates.

[0177] Interlayer insulating film refers to an insulating film disposed in a multilayer structure, and its type is not particularly limited. Examples of interlayer films include interlayer insulating films constituting multilayer wiring structures of semiconductor devices, and interlayer films used in semiconductor device applications such as add-on layers or core layers constituting wiring substrates. Other examples of interlayer films used in display device applications include planarization films covering thin-film transistors in display devices, liquid crystal alignment films, protrusions disposed on color filter substrates of liquid crystal display devices, and separators used to form cathodes of organic EL elements.

[0178] There are no particular limitations on the method for coating the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment onto the substrate, and examples include inkjet printing, spin coating, casting, microgravure printing, gravure coating, bar coating, roller coating, wire bar coating, dip coating, spraying, screen printing, flexographic printing, and die coating.

[0179] When coating the substrate, it is preferable to adjust the concentration of the solids component of the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment to be in the range of 5% by mass or more and 50% by mass or less. From a solubility point of view, aprotic polar solvents are preferred as the solvent used during coating. Specifically, suitable examples include N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-acetyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-benzyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, hexamethylphosphoric triamine, N-acetyl-ε-caprolactam, dimethylimidazolium ketone, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, triethylene glycol dimethyl ether, γ-butyrolactone, etc. These solvents can be used alone or in combination of two or more. To further improve coatability, solvents such as toluene, xylene, diethyl ketone, methoxybenzene, and cyclopentanone can be mixed within a range that does not adversely affect the solubility of the polymer.

[0180] Examples of substrates include glass, silicon wafers, metal foils, and plastic films. Among these substrates, silicon wafers and copper foils are preferred.

[0181] Exposure of the film can be performed, for example, by irradiating a film formed of a photosensitive polyimide resin composition on a substrate with light (typically ultraviolet light) through a photomask with a predetermined pattern. The exposed film has portions where light is blocked by the photomask and portions where light is irradiated; in other words, it has exposed and unexposed portions. In the exposed portions of the exposed film, the polyimide resin in the photosensitive polyimide resin composition undergoes cross-linking to form a cross-linked polyimide film, which is then patterned through a subsequent development process. On the other hand, the polyimide resin in the unexposed portions does not undergo cross-linking, thus forming an uncross-linked polyimide film that is dissolved and removed during development.

[0182] After irradiation, the unexposed areas are dissolved and removed by the developing solution, thus obtaining the desired relief pattern.

[0183] The preferred cumulative ultraviolet radiation dose is 100 mJ / cm². 2 Above 8,000 mJ / cm 2 The following, and more preferably, is 200 mJ / cm 2 Above 6,000 mJ / cm 2 the following.

[0184] In the method for forming a resin pattern using the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment, an organic solvent is preferably used as the developing solution. The developing solution is not particularly limited as long as it can dissolve the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment. Specifically, suitable examples include N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-acetyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-benzyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, hexamethylphosphoric triamine, N-acetyl-ε-caprolactam, dimethylimidazolium ketone, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, triethylene glycol dimethyl ether, γ-butyrolactone, etc.

[0185] These developers can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0186] Next, the embossed pattern formed by development is cleaned using a rinse solution to remove the developer. Suitable examples of rinse solutions that are well miscible with the developer include methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and water.

[0187] The embossed pattern obtained through the above treatment is heat-treated at a temperature selected from the range of 80°C to 250°C, and the solvent is dried, thereby obtaining a cured film (pattern) formed by curing the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment. According to this embodiment, a photosensitive polyimide resin composition with excellent developability, i.e., sufficient curing of the exposed areas and sufficient removal of the unexposed areas, is used; therefore, the obtained embossed pattern can be obtained at high resolution.

[0188] The film thickness of the resin film described in this embodiment is preferably 20 μm or more, more preferably 25 μm or more, further preferably 30 μm or more, and preferably 85 μm or less, more preferably 60 μm or less. If the film thickness is within the above range, it can be used as an excellent insulating film. The thicker the film (i.e., the greater the amount of photosensitive polyimide resin composition coated on the substrate), the more problems arise, especially regarding the solubility of the polyimide resin in the developer. However, according to this embodiment, by using a closed-ring polyimide resin (A) having a specific structure and a specific end structure and a specific molecular weight range, excellent developer solubility and transparency can be achieved even in the aforementioned case.

[0189] Therefore, the resin film described in this embodiment can be suitably used, for example, in applications where high voltage is to be applied as an insulating film. The resin film obtained from the photosensitive polyimide resin composition of this embodiment, which comprises a closed-ring polyimide resin (A) and a multifunctional free radical polymerizable compound (B), can effectively suppress the occurrence of cracks and the like, and has excellent physical properties.

[0190] 3. Electronic devices

[0191] The electronic device described in this embodiment includes the resin film described in this embodiment.

[0192] The electronic device described in this embodiment is not particularly limited as long as it includes a resin film formed from the photosensitive polyimide resin composition described in this embodiment. Examples include display devices that use the resin film described in this embodiment as a planarization film or a microlens; semiconductor devices that use the resin film described in this embodiment as an interlayer insulating film in a multilayer wiring structure; semiconductor devices that use the resin film described in this embodiment as a surface protective film for semiconductor elements or wiring substrates; and semiconductor devices that use the resin film described in this embodiment as an add-on layer or core layer constituting a wiring substrate.

The mixture was heated to 70 °C while stirring. 136.6360 g (0.609 mol) of 1,2,4,5-cyclohexanetetracarboxylic acid dianhydride was then added, and the mixture was reacted at 190 °C for 5 hours. The mixture was diluted with 339.1 g of GBL to obtain 1069 g of polyimide varnish with a solid content of 30% by mass. According to GPC measurements, the polyimide obtained had a polystyrene equivalent weight-average molecular weight of 34,046.

[0237] Next, 300.56 g of the obtained polyimide varnish and 7.7102 g of 2-isocyanoethyl acrylate (manufactured by Showa Denko Co., Ltd., Karenz AOI) were added to a 500 mL four-necked flask equipped with a stirrer, thermometer, and condenser, and the mixture was reacted at 50 °C for 5 hours. Afterward, the reaction solution was added dropwise to water to precipitate the polyimide, and then dried at 70 °C overnight to obtain the ring-closed polyimide resin (A1). The obtained ring-closed polyimide resin (A1) had a polystyrene equivalent weight-average molecular weight of 34,664. Furthermore, the obtained ring-closed polyimide resin (A1) had a transmittance of 92.0% at a wavelength of 365 nm.

[0238] <Examples and Comparative Examples>

[0239] Example 1

[0240] 8.1 g of the closed-ring polyimide resin (A1) obtained in Synthesis Example 1 was dissolved in 10.0 g of GBL. 4.065 g of ethoxylated polyglycerol acrylate (SA-TE60 manufactured by Sakamoto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), 0.122 g of 1-hydroxycyclohexylphenyl ketone (Omnirad 184 manufactured by BASF), 0.285 g of bis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phenylphosphine oxide (Omnirad 819 manufactured by BASF) and 0.008 g of a silicone-containing polymer (LE-304, silicone-based surface conditioner manufactured by Kyoeisha Chemical Co., Ltd.) as a surface conditioner were added and stirred until dissolved to obtain a photosensitive polyimide resin composition varnish.

Next, using a lithography machine (MIKASA MA-10B), the cumulative irradiation dose (calculated based on an illuminance of 365nm) was 250mJ / cm². 2The film was exposed to light from a high-pressure mercury lamp with wavelengths cut off below 365 nm and allowed to stand for 15 minutes. The cured resin film was then peeled off from the silicon wafer, and the elongation at break and Tg were measured. Here, when evaluating the developability of the thick film, 0.004 g of KP-390 (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., a coating additive) was further added to the above-mentioned photosensitive polyimide resin composition varnish as an adhesion improver. The results are shown in Table 1.

Otherwise, the photosensitive resin composition was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 above, and its properties were evaluated. The results are combined and shown in Table 1.

[0243] In the embodiments and comparative examples, the cumulative exposure dose (exposure dose) was calculated as follows: at 250 mJ / cm². 2 Above 5,000 mJ / cm 2 Within the following range, with multiple different cumulative radiation doses (250 mJ / cm²) 2 1,500 mJ / cm 2 2,000 mJ / cm 2 4,000 mJ / cm 2 and 5,000 mJ / cm 2 When these five points are exposed, the optimal cumulative irradiation dose achieves the best balance between thick film curability, thick film flexibility, and thick film heat resistance.
