Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of polymer synthetic materials, and in particular to a narrow distribution copolymer and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Currently, narrow distribution poly (4-hydroxystyrene) resin (PHS resin) has a smaller molecular weight distribution index (1.0 < PDI < 1.2), which means that its molecular weight is more consistent. This consistency of molecular weight distribution is conducive to improving the dissolution contrast of photoresist during the development process, thereby improving the resolution of photoresist.

[0003] Narrow distribution poly 4-hydroxystyrene resin is mostly used in the production of high-resolution KrF photoresists. This resin can provide more consistent performance and higher accuracy, making it the preferred material in specific photoresist applications. However, 4-hydroxystyrene resin has a low activation energy (Low Ea, commonly known as low-temperature glue) when used as the main resin of photoresist. In addition, low-temperature glue has the disadvantages of short shelf life, more sublimates during exposure, and weak etching resistance.

[0004] Therefore, under the premise of ensuring high solubility contrast of poly (4-hydroxystyrene) resin, finding a narrow distribution polymer that can improve the activation energy when using 4-hydroxystyrene resin as the main resin of photoresist becomes an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the invention

[0012] In some embodiments of the present invention, the molar amount of the monomer is 10% to 50% of the molar amount of the 4-hydroxystyrene unit in the poly-4-hydroxystyrene; and / or the molecular weight of the poly-4-hydroxystyrene is in the range of 2,000 to 50,000.

[0013] In some embodiments of the present invention, the catalyst includes at least one of bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, 1-methyl-1-propylpiperidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide salt, N-methylbis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, pyridine, and 2,6-lutidine.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present invention, the molar amount of the catalyst is 0.1% to 10% of the molar amount of the monomer.

[0015] In some embodiments of the present invention, the organic solvent includes at least one of dimethyl sulfoxide, cyclohexanone, nitrobenzene, dioxane, N-methylpyrrolidone, and N,N-dimethylformamide.

[0017] As yet another aspect, the present invention provides a use of the above narrow distribution copolymer or the narrow distribution copolymer obtained by the above preparation method in the preparation of photoresists, adsorbents, and chemical additives.

[0018] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0019] The preparation method of the narrow distribution copolymer of the embodiment of the present invention is to prepare the narrow distribution copolymer by a graft modification method. Specifically, the narrow distribution poly 4-hydroxystyrene resin is modified by a grafting process to obtain a narrow distribution resin composed of two structural units, 4-hydroxystyrene and 4-tert-butoxystyrene. By modifying some hydroxyl groups in the poly 4-hydroxystyrene resin into tert-butyl groups, a narrow distribution copolymer with a higher activation energy (High Ea, commonly known as high temperature glue) is obtained. The copolymer has the advantages of high solubility contrast of narrow distribution resin, and has the advantages of long shelf life, high development contrast, less sublimation during exposure, and good anti-etching performance of high temperature glue resin.

Continue to cool to -78°C, and use a peristaltic pump to start dripping a mixture of two monomers, 4-hydroxystyrene (33.89 g) and 4-tert-butoxystyrene (16.11 g). By controlling the dripping speed, maintain the temperature stable at -70°C to -80°C; after the dripping is completed, continue the reaction for 1 hour, and then add methanol from which oxygen has been removed to terminate the reaction.

[0087] Data Analysis:

[0088] (1) Based on Figure 1 , Figure 3 to Figure 7 C 13 The chemical shift data in the NMR spectra indicate that Examples 1 to 6 successfully synthesized narrow distribution copolymers consisting of two structural units, 4-hydroxystyrene and 4-tert-butoxystyrene.

[0089] (2) Based on Figure 2 From the GPC spectrum of the narrow distribution copolymer in, it can be obtained that the number average molecular weight of the polymer is 18697, the weight average molecular weight is 20539, and the PDI is 1.09.

[0090] (3) Based on Figure 8 From the data in, we can draw the following conclusion: 4-hydroxystyrene is easily inactivated under alkaline conditions, and the entire process of anionic polymerization is carried out in a strong alkaline environment, so 4-hydroxystyrene does not ultimately participate in the polymerization process.

[0091] (4) Based on Fig. 9 The data in the experiment can lead to the following conclusion: pure narrow distribution copolymer containing two structures of 4-hydroxystyrene and 4-tert-butoxystyrene cannot be prepared under the condition that the reaction temperature is higher than 50°C; the reason is that when the temperature is higher than 50°C, the reaction process is accompanied by the occurrence of side reactions and some by-products are produced, so no pure binary copolymer product can be obtained.

[0092] In summary, the narrow distribution copolymer of the embodiment of the present invention is a binary resin containing two structures of 4-hydroxystyrene and 4-tert-butoxystyrene; it has high solubility contrast, long shelf life and good etching resistance.

[0093] The preparation method of the narrow distribution copolymer of the embodiment of the present invention is a method for grafting and modifying poly-4-hydroxystyrene. The preparation method of poly-4-hydroxystyrene of the embodiment of the present invention can accurately and quantitatively graft tert-butoxy groups onto poly-4-hydroxystyrene to modify it, and the grafting accuracy is ±1% of the target value.

[0094] In addition, the method for preparing the narrow distribution copolymer according to the embodiment of the present invention is not only applicable to the preparation of small batch samples in the laboratory, but can also be extended to the production of mass production-level products, and has industrial operability.
