Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a 4,5-dihydrothiazolium-3-yl sulfonate series of electroplating additives and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Traditional copper plating additives are usually composed of multiple components such as main brightener (which can refine grains), leveler (which can inhibit deposition in the convex region), wetting agent, dispersant, etc. The main brightener is usually sodium polydithiopropyl sulfonate (SPS), which can control grain refinement by adsorption, but SPS is easy to oxidize and decompose (it will fail when the current capacity is more than 15 Ah / L), so it needs to be frequently supplemented and combined with activated carbon treatment during electroplating. The leveler is usually sodium thiazoline dithiopropyl sulfonate (SH110) or N-ethyl thiourea, which can achieve filling by enhancing cathode polarization, but the aforementioned two levelers are easy to produce turbidity with imine levelers, which has limitations in compatibility.

[0003] There are three core problems in the existing copper plating additive system: (1) different additives (such as SPS and SH110, AESS and HP) need to be used in coordination, but after mixing, they are easy to cause side reactions (such as precipitation and plating solution turbidity), which limits the flexibility of formula design; (2) activated carbon adsorption is needed when SPS decomposes, and continuous filtration (≥5 times the tank volume / hour) is needed for dye-type additives, which requires frequent operation and adjustment during electroplating to ensure process stability, resulting in high maintenance costs; (3) most additives will fail in a high temperature (>35℃) environment, which requires additional cooling equipment, resulting in increased energy consumption.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a 4,5-dihydrothiazolium-3-yl sulfonate series of electroplating additives and a preparation method and application thereof to solve the above problems. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the technical problems in the background art, the present application provides a 4,5-dihydrothiazolium-3-yl sulfonate series of electroplating additives and a preparation method and application thereof. By grafting a short carbon chain with a sulfonic acid group on a carbon heterocycle containing both sulfur and nitrogen atoms, a 4,5-dihydrothiazolium-3-yl sulfonate series of electroplating additives is designed and synthesized. On the one hand, the obtained additive molecules can simultaneously have the functions of brightener and leveler without the need for compatibility with other compounds, reducing the difficulty of formula design and simplifying the process control process. On the other hand, the synergistic effect of heteroatoms in the additive molecules reduces the sensitivity of the plating solution to temperature, eliminating the need for additional cooling equipment and significantly reducing the preparation cost. The 4,5-dihydrothiazolium-3-yl sulfonate series of electroplating additives provided by the present application can improve the brightness of the plating layer by 35% and prolong the life of the plating solution by 100% in acid copper plating.

[0092] See the reaction route diagram of Example 6. Figure 7 As shown.

[0093] Electroplating tests were conducted using the 4,5-dihydrothiazolium-3-onium sulfonate series of electroplating additives prepared in Examples 1-6, with an additive formulated with sodium dithiopropane sulfonate (SPS) and diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride-sulfur dioxide alternating block copolymer (PAS-A-5) serving as a control group. The specific steps of the electroplating tests are as follows:

[0094] An electrolyte solution was prepared by mixing copper sulfate pentahydrate, concentrated sulfuric acid, deionized water, and dilute hydrochloric acid. This electrolyte solution was then introduced into an electrolytic cell equipped with heating and temperature control. An additive solution was added and stirred until homogeneous. Electroplating began after the mixed solution was heated to 55°C, with a current density of 50 A / dm³. 2 After electrolysis of the copper foil, the copper foil is passivated with a chromic anhydride passivation solution to obtain a 6μm finished copper foil. The electrolyte contains a copper ion concentration of 90 g / L, an acid content of 110 g / L, a chloride ion concentration of 15 mg / L, and an additive solution including additives and polyethylene glycol 1000.

[0095] The concentrations of each component in the additive are shown in Table 1:

[0096] Table 1. Concentration of each component in the additive

[0097]

[0098]

[0099] Finally, the finished copper foil obtained by electroplating was subjected to a copper plating bath life test under acidic high-temperature conditions, with the following test conditions:

[0100] Accelerated aging conditions: 60℃ constant temperature bath, 3A / dm 2 Continuous electroplating;

[0101] Monitoring cycles: 0, 24, 48, 72, 96 hours (corresponding to actual usage cycles of 1-4 months);

[0102] Test piece specifications: 150mm×100mm copper clad laminate (substrate roughness Ra≤0.1μm);

[0103] Termination condition: gloss ≤ 50Gs.

[0104] The data on gloss, arithmetic mean roughness (Ra), ten-point mean roughness (Rz), and plating solution life obtained from electroplating tests and acidic copper plating solution life tests are shown in Table 2. (Where N4 and N3 represent that the N atom is attached to a C3 carbon chain and a C4 carbon chain, respectively, and N4(-OH) represents that the C4 carbon chain also contains -OH; the same applies to S4, S3, N4(-OH), and S3(-OH).)

[0105] Table 2. Test Data

[0106]

[0107]

[0108] As shown in Table 2, the gloss, Ra, and Rz of the additives prepared in Examples 1-6 are significantly better than those of the mixed additives of SPS and PAS-A-5. Compared with ordinary mixed additives, the additives prepared in Examples 1-6 have better brightening and leveling effects, longer plating bath life, and lower overall addition amount.

[0109] In summary, this application provides a series of 4,5-dihydrothiazole-3-onium sulfonate electroplating additives, their preparation methods, and applications. A series of 4,5-dihydrothiazole-3-onium sulfonate electroplating additives was designed and synthesized, and successfully applied to acidic copper electroplating. Compared with a mixed additive of SPS and PAS-A-5, the electroplating additive provided in this application increases the brightness of the plating layer by about 35% and extends the plating bath life by about 100%.
