Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of polymer compound compositions, specifically to a diamond resin composite, resin composition, preparation method, and application. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing intelligence and lightweighting of electronic devices, their packaging materials are also gradually moving towards miniaturization and high density. Highly integrated electronic devices generate a large amount of heat within a small space, requiring packaging materials with excellent thermal conductivity. Currently, a high proportion of spherical alumina or silicon micropowder is often used as filler material, but the thermal conductivity still needs improvement. Diamond powder has a high thermal conductivity, and its introduction can improve thermal conductivity; however, diamond powder has poor compatibility with epoxy resin, resulting in high contact and boundary thermal resistance, which affects the thermal conductivity of the composite material. Therefore, developing a composite material with good compatibility between diamond powder and epoxy resin to improve thermal conductivity is crucial.

[0003] Chinese invention patent CN112280252B discloses an epoxy composition and its application, which bonds and fixes the cutting head to the substrate. The toughness of the cured epoxy composition allows it to absorb vibrations from the substrate or the cutting head (hard metal material) during operation, thus achieving noise reduction. It also has good heat resistance, but its thermal conductivity still needs improvement. Chinese invention patent application CN120310490A discloses a high-performance electronic encapsulation adhesive based on graphene composite diamond micropowder and its preparation method. By adding surface-modified graphene composite diamond micropowder and fumed silica dispersant to the epoxy resin system, a highly efficient thermally conductive mesh is formed in the resin matrix, significantly improving thermal conductivity and compatibility. However, the large amount of thermally conductive filler added makes it difficult to apply and encapsulate microelectronic products. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To develop a composite material with good compatibility between diamond powder and epoxy resin, thereby improving thermal conductivity, the first aspect of the present invention provides a diamond resin composite material, the raw materials of which include inorganic filler 1, inorganic filler 2, coupling agent, and epoxy resin 1; the weight ratio of inorganic filler 1, inorganic filler 2, coupling agent, and epoxy resin 1 is (1-40):(1-20):(1-5):(20-70); the inorganic filler 1 is diamond powder, and the D50 particle size of the diamond powder is 0.05-5μm.

[0005] In one embodiment, the D50 particle size of the diamond powder is 50-1800 nm.

[0006] This invention incorporates diamond micro / nano powder and a coupling agent into epoxy resin 1. The inorganic filler 1, inorganic filler 2, coupling agent, and epoxy resin 1 are used in a weight ratio of (1-40):(1-20):(1-5):(20-70). One end of the coupling agent molecule reacts with the hydroxyl groups on the diamond surface, and the other end reacts with epoxy resin 1 to form a chemical bond. This effectively reduces the interfacial thermal resistance, allowing the high thermal conductivity of diamond to be fully utilized, significantly improving the dispersibility of diamond in epoxy resin 1, preventing agglomeration, and greatly enhancing the system compatibility.

[0007] In one embodiment, the coupling agent is an aminosilane coupling agent, which includes at least one of γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, N-(β-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, N-phenyl-γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, triamino-functionalized propyltrimethoxysilane, or N-cyclohexyl-γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane.

This avoids the problem of uneven filler distribution caused by single ultrasonic treatment and further improves the compatibility of diamond in epoxy resin.

[0023] A third aspect of the present invention provides a resin composition comprising, by weight, 2-20 parts of the diamond resin composite described above, 5-30 parts of curing agent, 0.1-1 parts of coupling agent, 0.1-1 parts of colorant, 45-70 parts of solid filler, and 10-30 parts of epoxy resin.

[0036] (2) The diamond resin composite of the present invention adopts stepwise ultrasonic treatment to make diamond fully combine with epoxy resin to form a basic composite, and then combine with silicon dioxide.
