Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polyamide-imide materials technology, specifically to a polyamide-imide resin, composition, and the prepared flexible copper-clad laminate. Background Technology
[0002] Flexible copper clad laminates are the core substrate of flexible printed circuit boards (PCBs). Based on the lamination method, they can be divided into two categories: two-layer adhesive-free and three-layer adhesive-based. Among them, two-layer adhesive-free PCBs are difficult to meet the growing demand of the flexible PCB consumer market due to high cost, demanding manufacturing process, limited production capacity, and limited application scope. Therefore, three-layer adhesive-based flexible copper clad laminates are often used to make up for the above shortcomings.
[0003] Three-layer adhesive-based flexible copper clad laminates use thermosetting adhesives such as epoxy, acrylic, and polyester resins to bond polyimide films and metal foils together. The polyimide film used is polymerized from inexpensive pyromellitic dianhydride and 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether monomers. This type of film has the largest industrial scale and a significant cost advantage. Furthermore, the epoxy, acrylic, and polyester resin adhesives used in three-layer adhesive-based flexible copper clad laminates exhibit excellent initial tack performance, allowing for medium-temperature lamination processes (60-130℃) and high-speed production (≥5m / min). This makes them compatible with most coating production equipment and offers high yield. However, the adhesives used in three-layer adhesive-based flexible copper clad laminates are prone to aging and decomposition under prolonged high temperatures of 200℃, leading to a significant decrease in adhesive strength and eventual failure.
[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a cost-effective, highly soluble polyamide-imide resin that can be used in the preparation of flexible copper-clad laminate substrates. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a polyamide-imide resin, a composition, and a flexible copper-clad laminate prepared therefrom, in order to solve the problems raised in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A polyamide-imide resin, wherein the structural formula (A) of the polyamide-imide resin is: (A); Where n is an integer between 4 and 50.
[0007] Further, Ar is a compound containing a benzene ring group; the compound is one or more selected from 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, 4,4'-dimethyldiphenylmethane, 2,4'-dimethyldiphenylmethane, 2,3'-dimethyldiphenylmethane, 1,5-dimethylnaphthalene, p-xylene, p-diethylbenzene, 1,2-diethylbenzene, 1,3-diethylbenzene, 1,3-di-tert-butylbenzene, 3,3',4,4'-tetramethylbiphenyl, and 3',4,4'-dimethyldiphenylmethane.
[0008] Further, the preparation method of the polyamide-imide resin is as follows: Under a nitrogen atmosphere, trimellitic anhydride is added to a solvent and stirred at room temperature until dissolved. Aromatic diisocyanate is added and stirred until dissolved, and solvent is added. The reaction is carried out at 70-90℃ for 4-6 hours, 100-120℃ for 4-6 hours, and 150-170℃ for 2-4 hours. The mixture is then filtered to obtain the polyamide-imide resin. In the preparation of polyamide-imide resin, the molar ratio of trimellitic anhydride to aromatic diisocyanate is 1:(0.8-0.98).
[0009] Furthermore, the structural formula (B) of the aromatic diisocyanate is: (B); Wherein, Ar is a compound containing a benzene ring group; the compound is one or more selected from 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, 4,4'-dimethyldiphenylmethane, 2,4'-dimethyldiphenylmethane, 2,3'-dimethyldiphenylmethane, 1,5-dimethylnaphthalene, p-xylene, p-diethylbenzene, 1,2-diethylbenzene, 1,3-diethylbenzene, 1,3-di-tert-butylbenzene, 3,3',4,4'-tetramethylbiphenyl, and 3',4,4'-dimethyldiphenylmethane; Further, the solvent is one or more of N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide, butanone, cyclohexanone, and toluene.
[0010] A polyamide-imide resin composition is obtained by mixing polyamide-imide resin with epoxy resin, inorganic filler, wetting and leveling agent and solvent.
[0011] In the preparation of the polyamide-imide resin composition, the mass ratio of epoxy resin, inorganic filler, wetting and leveling agent, solvent and polyamide-imide resin is (5-50):(5-40):(0.05-0.5):(10-50):100.
[0012] Further, the epoxy resin is one or more of N,N',N,N'-tetracyclooxypropyl-4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane, N,N',N,N'-tetra(epoxyethylenemethyl)-1,3-phenylenediamine, 2,2-bis-(4-glycyloxyphenyl)propane, and dicyclopentadiene phenol epoxy resin; The inorganic filler is one or more of silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, titanium dioxide, zirconium oxide, and barium sulfate; The wetting and leveling agent is one or more of BYK333, BYK310, BYK306, Wet410, Wet270 and Evonik 5830.
[0013] A flexible copper-clad laminate prepared from a polyamide-imide resin composition is prepared by the following steps: coating the polyamide-imide resin composition onto a polyimide film, pre-baking, pressing it at high temperature onto the rough surface of an electrolytic copper foil, curing it by programmed temperature rise, and repeating the above steps on the other side to obtain a flexible copper-clad laminate.
[0014] Furthermore, the pre-baking temperature is 140-180℃, and the time is 2-5 min; the high-temperature pressing temperature is 150-180℃, the pressing pressure is 5-20 MPa, and the pressing time is 60-180 s; the programmed temperature rise curing conditions are 100-130℃ for 4-6 h, 140-180℃ for 4-6 h, and 220-280℃ for 4-8 h.
[0015] Furthermore, the coating thickness of the polyamide-imide resin adhesive composition is 5-25 μm; the thickness of the polyimide film is 5-100 μm; and the copper foil is one of rolled copper foil and electrolytic copper foil, with a thickness of 12-75 μm.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The adhesive composition used in this invention uses polyamide-imide resin as the matrix. On one hand, the polyamide-imide resin is composed of trimellitic anhydride and aromatic diisocyanate. The terminal hydroxyl groups and terminal anhydrides in this structure have active hydrogen, which can undergo crosslinking reactions with the epoxy groups on the epoxy resin, improving the adhesion between the polyamide-imide resin and the copper foil. On the other hand, the polyamide-imide resin has a similar chemical structure to the polyimide film. According to the principle of similar compatibility, the two have good compatibility and intermolecular forces, thereby improving the peel strength between the adhesive composition and the base film. Simultaneously, the polyamide-imide resin has good heat resistance and mechanical strength, increasing the glass transition temperature and ultimate heat resistance temperature of the flexible copper-clad laminate, and enhancing the mechanical strength of the flexible copper-clad laminate.
[0017] 2. This invention introduces inorganic fillers such as silica and wetting and leveling agents into the adhesive composition. The inorganic fillers not only adjust the coefficient of thermal expansion of the adhesive composition, preventing edge warping of the flexible copper-clad laminate, but also reduce raw material costs. The wetting and leveling agents promote uniform coating of the adhesive composition onto the base film, which helps to ensure uniform pressure distribution during lamination, improving the stability and yield of the flexible copper-clad laminate.
[0018] 3. Compared with the traditional two-layer adhesive-free substrate, the flexible copper clad laminate prepared by the present invention is a three-layer adhesive-based substrate. Its heat resistance is close to that of the traditional two-layer adhesive-free substrate. Moreover, it has low raw material cost, simple production process, high yield, and good adaptability. It can be widely used in new energy storage, consumer electronics, automotive electronics and aerospace fields. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The experimental results are shown in Table 2 below.
[0037] Table 2 Performance test data of polyamide-imide resin composition and flexible copper clad laminate Conclusion: By adjusting the component ratios of the polyamide-imide resin and its binder composition, not only can the flexible copper clad laminate exhibit good heat resistance, but its mechanical properties can also be improved.
[0038] In Comparative Example 1, a polyamide-imide resin was synthesized using trimellitic anhydride and aromatic diisocyanate in a 1:1 molar ratio. On one hand, the resin product lacks carboxyl and anhydride groups at the ends, preventing the polyamide-imide resin from forming chemical crosslinks with the epoxy resin. On the other hand, the polyamide-imide resin has a large molecular weight, resulting in poor flowability of the resin composition and difficulty in fully anchoring it to the rough surface of the copper foil during lamination. For these reasons, the peel strength and thermal aging properties of the flexible copper-clad laminate prepared in this comparative example are significantly lower than those in Examples 1-7.
[0039] In Comparative Example 2, aliphatic diisocyanate was used instead of aromatic diisocyanate to synthesize polyamide-imide resin. The flexible aliphatic segments on it are easily rotated, which not only reduces the mechanical strength and heat resistance of the adhesive composition, but also reduces the adhesion between the adhesive composition and the matrix. At the same time, the raw material cost of aliphatic diisocyanate is high, increasing the production cost of flexible copper-clad laminate.
[0040] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
