Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of semiconductor packaging technology, and in particular relates to an epoxy resin composition for sealing. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the trend towards miniaturization and lightweighting of electronic devices, semiconductor packaging has also been continuously developing, and wafer-level packaging (WLP) has received widespread attention. However, traditional epoxy resin compositions face many challenges in the sealing process of semiconductor packaging. Due to the large area of the sealing layer, wafers are prone to warping, which not only affects subsequent processes such as grinding, cutting, and assembly, but may also lead to a decrease in the reliability of packaged devices. In addition, existing epoxy resin compositions are also unable to meet increasingly stringent requirements in terms of heat resistance, moisture resistance, and low thermal expansion.
[0003] To address these issues, researchers have attempted to use various sealing methods, such as compression molding. However, commonly used epoxy resins and phenolic curing agents, in sheet form, suffer from problems such as easy breakage and poor workability. Therefore, developing a sealing resin composition with low viscosity, high glass transition temperature, and low elastic modulus to suppress warping when sealing large-area substrates has become a current research focus.
[0004] Currently, commonly used epoxy diluents such as ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether and 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether, due to their low viscosity, can be used as reactive diluents to improve overall flowability. However, these diluents significantly lower the glass transition temperature after curing, affecting the resin's performance. Therefore, developing a sealing resin composition that maintains both low viscosity and a high glass transition temperature and low elastic modulus has become crucial to solving current technical problems. This requires not only innovation in formulation design but also optimization in material selection and preparation processes to meet the increasingly demanding performance requirements of sealing materials for electronic components. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, the object of the present invention is to provide an epoxy resin composition for sealing, which has the properties of low viscosity, high glass transition temperature and low elastic modulus, and can also suppress warping when sealing large-area substrates, thereby solving the problems in the prior art.
[0006] The technical solution of this invention is:
[0007] This invention provides an epoxy resin composition comprising an epoxy resin, a polyfunctional epoxy compound having a polyalkylene glycol chain, and an inorganic filler, wherein the polyfunctional epoxy compound having the polyalkylene glycol chain has the structure shown in Formula I:
[0008] Formula I;
[0009] In Formula I, R1 is selected from one or more of polyethylene glycol chains, polypropylene glycol chains, polytrimethylene glycol chains, and polytetramethylene glycol chains, with 2 to 10 repeating units; R2 is hydrogen or methyl; and n is 2 to 20.
[0010] The polyfunctional epoxy compound with polyalkylene glycol chains has a viscosity of 500~5000 cP at 25°C.
[0011] The present invention also provides a method for preparing an epoxy resin composition, the method comprising mixing epoxy resin, a polyfunctional epoxy compound having a polyalkylene glycol chain, and an inorganic filler uniformly to obtain an epoxy resin composition, which is then used after defoaming under reduced pressure.
[0012] The present invention also provides a structural component comprising electronic components and a resin layer formed by curing an epoxy resin composition as described in the present invention.
[0013] The present invention also provides a method for preparing a structural component, comprising the following steps: coating the epoxy resin composition onto the surface of the electronic component, curing it to form the resin layer, and then obtaining the structural component.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an epoxy resin composition for sealing, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. This invention effectively improves the fluidity of resin by introducing a polyfunctional epoxy compound with a polyalkylene glycol chain into the formulation, while maintaining a high glass transition temperature. This solves the problems of easy cracking and poor workability of traditional epoxy resins during compression molding, and improves the processing performance of sealing materials.
[0016] 2. The epoxy resin composition for sealing of the present invention has excellent elastic modulus, which can effectively suppress warping when sealing large-area substrates, significantly improve the encapsulation quality, meet the requirements of high-density installation, and overcome the defects of easy deformation of sealing materials in the prior art;
[0017] 3. This invention uses a special multifunctional epoxy diluent, which maintains low viscosity characteristics without significantly reducing the glass transition temperature after curing, thus achieving an optimized balance of resin performance and meeting the high-performance requirements of electronic components for sealing materials.
[0018] 4. This invention achieves a comprehensive upgrade of epoxy resin compositions for sealing by optimizing formulation design, material selection, and preparation process, which can better meet the performance requirements of different application scenarios and promote the further development of wafer-level packaging technology. Detailed Implementation
[0019] Hereinafter, embodiments of the epoxy resin composition for sealing provided by the present invention will be described in detail.
[0020] The "range" disclosed in this application is defined by a lower limit and an upper limit. A given range is defined by selecting a lower limit and an upper limit, which define the boundaries of a particular range. Ranges defined in this way can include or exclude endpoints and can be arbitrarily combined; that is, any lower limit can be combined with any upper limit to form a range. For example, if ranges of 60~120 and 80~110 are listed for a specific parameter, it is also expected that ranges of 60~110 and 80~120 are also included. Furthermore, if minimum range values of 1 and 2 are listed, and if maximum range values of 3, 4, and 5 are listed, then the following ranges are all expected: 1~3, 1~4, 1~5, 2~3, 2~4, and 2~5. In this application, unless otherwise stated, the numerical range "a~b" represents a shortened representation of any combination of real numbers between a and b, where a and b are real numbers. For example, the numerical range "0~5" indicates that all real numbers between "0~5" have been listed in this article; "0~5" is simply a shortened representation of these numerical combinations. Furthermore, when a parameter is stated as an integer ≥2, it is equivalent to disclosing that the parameter is, for example, an integer such as 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, etc.
[0021] Traditional epoxy resin and phenolic curing agents in sheet form are prone to cracking and deformation during compression molding, resulting in poor operability and difficulty in meeting the miniaturization and lightweight requirements of electronic devices. Commonly used epoxy diluents, such as ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether and 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether, can improve overall flowability as active diluents due to their low viscosity, but they significantly reduce the glass transition temperature after curing, affecting the resin's performance. Existing epoxy resin compositions for sealing are difficult to suppress warping when sealing large-area substrates, affecting encapsulation quality and failing to meet the requirements of high-density mounting. Existing epoxy resin compositions for sealing still need further optimization in formulation design, material selection, and preparation processes to simultaneously achieve low viscosity, high glass transition temperature, and low elastic modulus to meet the needs of different application scenarios.
[0022] Therefore, through extensive research and exploration, the inventors of this invention provide an epoxy resin composition for sealing, which exhibits low viscosity, high glass transition temperature, and low elastic modulus, and can suppress warping even when sealing large-area substrates. To address the aforementioned issues, the epoxy resin composition for sealing electronic components provided by this invention comprises: (A) an epoxy resin, (B) a polyfunctional epoxy compound having a polyalkylene glycol chain, and (C) an inorganic filler. This results in low viscosity, high glass transition temperature, and low elastic modulus, and also provides warping suppression even when sealing large-area substrates. Based on this, this application was completed.
