Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a hydroxyl group-containing compound having a specific structure, a curable resin composition containing the compound, a cured product, and a laminate containing a layer made of the cured product. [Background technology]

[0002] Cured products obtained from epoxy resins have excellent heat resistance, mechanical strength, electrical properties, adhesive properties, etc., and are essential materials in various fields such as electrical and electronics, paints, and adhesives.

[0003] On the other hand, cured products using thermosetting resins such as epoxy resins have low long-term reliability. For example, when a cured product of an epoxy resin deteriorates due to oxidation, cracks may occur.

[0004] In addition, the cured product obtained by curing thermosetting resins such as epoxy resins cannot be dissolved in solvents (is insoluble) and does not dissolve even at high temperatures (is infusible), making it difficult to recycle or reuse. In addition, the cured product becomes waste after use, so there is a need to reduce waste and alleviate the burden on the environment.

[0005] Therefore, there is a demand for solutions to issues such as extending the lifespan and reducing waste for cured products made from epoxy resins, etc., and it is believed that an effective solution to these issues would be to give the cured products easy dismantling, repairability, and remoldability.

[0006] Against this background, a method has been disclosed in which a thermally decomposable compound is incorporated into a reactive adhesive component in advance, and then, after use, a certain amount of heat is applied to reduce the adhesive strength, making the product dismantlable (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0007] In addition, a method has been disclosed in which, even if cracks or peeling occur in a sealing material using an epoxy resin or the like, the sealing material can be made self-repairable by using microcapsule particles containing a first thermosetting resin and a precursor of a second thermosetting resin (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

[0008] In addition to the above, active research is being conducted on the use of reversible bonds such as dynamic covalent bonds and supramolecular bonds in hardened materials in order to impart repairability and reshapeability. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0009] [Patent Document 1] JP 2013-256557 A [Patent Document 2] JP 2017-041496 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0010] In the technology provided in Patent Document 1, the adhesive after dismantling is discarded, and although the substrate to be bonded can be recycled, there is a problem that the overall recyclability is insufficient. In addition, in the technology in Patent Document 2, although it has a certain degree of self-repairability, it is not a solution in terms of reuse, and the problem of waste when it becomes unnecessary remains. In addition, since it is necessary to ensure the molecular mobility of the raw materials used in the reversible bond, there is a problem that the raw materials used are limited to gel-like substances with poor mechanical strength, and both are currently required to be improved. Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a compound that is a curable resin but can easily realize repairability and remolding in the cured product, and a curable resin composition and a cured product thereof made using the same.

[0030] According to the present invention, it is possible to impart repairability and remoldability to a cured product made of a curable resin composition, which can contribute to extending the life of the cured product itself and reducing waste. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0031] Next, the embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments, and that appropriate changes and improvements in the design may be made based on the ordinary knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0032] A hydroxyl-containing compound according to one embodiment of the present invention is a hydroxyl-containing compound formed by linking a structural unit A having one or more hydroxyl groups to a structural unit B different from A via an ABA bond, and is characterized in that the structural unit A and the structural unit B are linked via a reversible bond having a dissociation temperature of 120° C. or higher.

[0033] By having such a structure, the hydroxyl group-containing compound is incorporated into the crosslinked structure by the curing reaction based on the hydroxyl group. On the other hand, by having reversibility even after becoming a cured product, the structural unit B in particular can exist apart from the crosslinked structure, and therefore has high molecular mobility even in the cured product. For this reason, when the cured product is subjected to an impact, cracks occur, or it is crushed, it is easy to break at the reversible bond part, but on the other hand, the reversible bond can be reversibly reshaped even in a low temperature range including room temperature, and can exhibit functions such as repairability and reshapeability. Since the structural unit B exists apart from the crosslinked structure, it exhibits particularly high molecular mobility, and shows low-temperature repairability and low-temperature reshapeability. For example, even if the cured product made of the hydroxyl group-containing compound of the present invention is crushed, it is easy to repair the cured product based on the reversible bond by placing it at a low temperature including room temperature or in a heated or heated state, and it is also possible to reshape the cured product after crushing it.

[0034] The reversible bond having a dissociation temperature of 120° C. or higher may be a covalent bond or a non-covalent bond, with the covalent bond being preferred from the viewpoint of durability of the cured product, while the non-covalent bond is preferred from the viewpoint of short repair time and remolding time after crushing of the cured product.

[0035] The covalent bond system is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include an addition type structure by a Diels-Alder reaction, a disulfide bond, an ester bond, a boronic acid ester bond, a hemiaminal bond, an imine bond, an acylhydrazone bond, an olefin metathesis reaction, an alkoxyamine skeleton, an amide bond, etc. Among them, from the viewpoint of the heat resistance and hydrolysis resistance of the cured product, an addition type structure by a Diels-Alder reaction of an anthracene type (a reversible bond consisting of an anthracene structure and a maleimide structure) and a disulfide bond sandwiched between aromatic rings are preferred.

[0036] The non-covalent bond system is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include van der Waals forces, ionic bonds, inclusion bonds of cyclodextrin, and hydrogen bonds of ureidopyrimidinone units and polyether thiourea.

[0037] In order to introduce the anthracene-type Diels-Alder reaction-based addition structure into a compound, a method using an anthracene having a reactive functional group on the ring and a maleimide having a reactive functional group is preferred because of its simple manufacturing process. A specific reversible bond partial structure can be represented by the following chemical formula. A reversible bond can be introduced into a compound by bonding with other structural units based on the R portion in the following formula in the maleimide-derived structure or various reactive functional groups on the ring of the anthracene-derived structure.

[0038] [ka]

[0039] In the Diels-Alder reaction, a conjugated diene and a parent diene undergo an addition reaction to form a six-membered ring. Since the Diels-Alder reaction is an equilibrium reaction, a Retro-Diels-Alder reaction occurs at a certain temperature, resulting in dissociation (decrosslinking). At this time, if the temperature at which the Retro-Diels-Alder reaction occurs (dissociation temperature) is low, decrosslinking occurs in a high temperature range, and the crosslink density of the cured product decreases, resulting in a decrease in mechanical strength. Therefore, in the present invention, it is necessary that the Diels-Alder reaction unit has a dissociation temperature of 120°C or higher and is a combination of high thermal stability. For example, a Diels-Alder reaction unit consisting of an anthracene structure and a maleimide structure has a high dissociation temperature of 250°C or higher, and does not dissociate at least at about 200°C, maintaining the crosslinked structure, and has excellent thermal stability. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the decrease in crosslink density of the cured product, and to maintain good mechanical strength. In addition, when mechanical energy such as scratches or external force is applied to the resulting cured product, the CC bond of the Diels-Alder reaction unit is preferentially broken because the bond energy of the CC bond is lower than that of a normal covalent bond. However, in the temperature range lower than the dissociation temperature, the CC bond of the Diels-Alder reaction unit shifts the equilibrium toward the bond, forming an adduct (Diels-Alder reaction unit) again, which is thought to enable repair of the scratches and remolding.

[0040] The compounds containing the disulfide bond include the compounds shown below. Similarly, by binding various compounds to sites other than the disulfide bond site, such as hydroxyl groups, amino groups, and vinyl groups, it is possible to incorporate disulfide bond sites into the hydroxyl group-containing compound. In the disulfide bond site, similarly to the above, when the cured material is cut by external force, the disulfide bond is preferentially cut, but below the dissociation temperature, the equilibrium shifts toward the bond, and the SS bond is formed again, making it possible to repair the damage and reshape.

[0041] [ka]

[0042] [ka]

[0043] Examples of the compound containing the alkoxyamine skeleton include the compounds shown below. As in the above, by bonding with other compounds via the terminal vinyl group (methacryloyl group), it becomes possible to incorporate a reversible bond into the hydroxyl group-containing compound.

[0044] [ka]

[0045] The above-mentioned reversible bond will be present at at least two places in the target hydroxyl group-containing compound, but from the viewpoints of obtaining a structure with higher molecular mobility and facilitating adjustment of physical properties such as the mechanical strength of the cured product, it is preferable that the structural unit B also has a plurality of reversible bonds of the same type as the reversible bond between A and B.

[0046] For the same reasons as above, the molecular weight of the structural unit B is preferably at least a certain size, and for example, the average molecular weight (Mw) is preferably at least 28. When the structural unit B has a reversible bond, the molecular weight between the reversible bonds is preferably at least 28. Although the structural unit B may have a crosslinkable functional group similar to the hydroxyl group in the structural unit A, it is preferable that the structural unit B does not have a crosslinkable (curable) functional group from the viewpoint of more easily achieving the effects of the present invention.

[0047] In order to enable the cured product to exhibit greater flexibility or better conformability to the substrate when the hydroxyl-containing compound of the present invention is used, for example, as a structural adhesive, it is preferable for the structural unit B to have an alkylene chain or an alkylene ether chain, and in this case, the alkylene chain preferably has 2 to 30 carbon atoms, and most preferably has 4 to 16 carbon atoms. The alkylene ether chain is not particularly limited, but is preferably an alkylene ether chain having 2 to 12 carbon atoms, and the average number of repetitions is preferably in the range of 2 to 30.

[0048] The hydroxyl group in the structural unit A may be alcoholic or aromatic as long as it can easily react with other functional groups. For example, when it is combined with an epoxy resin described later to form a curable resin composition, it is generally preferable that the hydroxyl group is aromatic. In addition, the number of hydroxyl groups in the structural unit A is not particularly limited, but is preferably in the range of 1 to 3, more preferably 1 to 2, from the viewpoint of industrial availability of raw materials and easy adjustment of crosslink density when cured.

[0049] The average molecular weight (Mw) of the hydroxyl group-containing compound is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of achieving both mechanical strength, flexibility, and repairability and reshapeability when the compound is cured, it is preferably 500 or more and preferably 50000 or less. In addition, when the compound has a plurality of reversible bonds other than between A and B, for example, in the structural unit B, it is more preferable that the molecular weight per reversible bond is in the range of 300 to 10000 from the viewpoint of reshapeability and the like of the cured product.

[0092] The so-called Diels-Alder reaction, in which a conjugated diene such as an anthracene structure and a parent diene such as a maleimide structure undergo an addition reaction to form a six-membered ring, is an equilibrium reaction. It is widely known that at temperatures higher than the temperature at which the addition reaction proceeds, the addition reaction site dissociates, returning the original conjugated diene and parent diene, and a retro-Diels-Alder reaction takes place.

However, in the temperature range above the glass transition temperature measured by DMA, molecular mobility is generally high, and even if the concentration of the hydroxyl group-containing compound is low, sufficient repairability and reshapeability functions are likely to be expressed, so for example, the effect of expressing the repairability and reshapeability functions can be adjusted by appropriately adjusting the aging temperature for repair and the heating temperature for reshaping. Thus, the relationship between the glass transition temperature of the cured product and the concentration of reversible bonds is not limited to these.

[0148] As the compound (I) reactive with the hydroxyl group-containing compound, it is particularly preferable to use an epoxy resin, since this results in a curable resin composition that is excellent in curability, mechanical strength, heat resistance, etc. of the cured product.

[0149] As the epoxy resin, an epoxy resin represented by the following formula (8) and having an epoxy equivalent of 500 to 10,000 g / eq may be used.

However, the bond between X' represented by the general formula (8-2) and Y' represented by the general formula (8-3) may be random or block, and the total numbers of the structural units X' and Y' present in one molecule are m3 and m4, respectively.

[0153] The epoxy resin may be an epoxy resin represented by the following formula (9): By using such an epoxy resin, the effect of repairability and remoldability of the cured epoxy resin is improved, and a good balance between flexibility and toughness is achieved.

[0154] [ka] [In formula (9), p1, p2, q, and m4 are average values ​​of repetitions, and each independently, p1 is 0 to 5, p2 is 0 to 5, q is 0.5 to 5, and m4 is 0 to 25.]

[0155] The epoxy resin represented by the general formula (8) or (9) may be used alone in combination with the hydroxyl group-containing compound of the present invention to form a curable resin. However, from the viewpoint of imparting further flexibility to the cured product and making it easier to dismantle, it is also preferable to use an epoxy resin having an epoxy equivalent of 100 to 300 g / eq in combination.

[0156] The epoxy resin that can be used in combination is not limited in structure as long as its epoxy equivalent is in the range of 100 to 300 g / eq. Examples of the epoxy resin include liquid epoxy resins such as bisphenol A type epoxy resin, bisphenol F type epoxy resin, bisphenol S type epoxy resin, bisphenol AD ​​type epoxy resin, polyhydroxybenzene type epoxy resin, polyhydroxynaphthalene type epoxy resin, biphenyl type epoxy resin, and tetramethylbiphenyl type epoxy resin; brominated epoxy resins such as brominated phenol novolac type epoxy resin; solid bisphenol A type epoxy resin, phenol novolac type epoxy resin, cresol novolac type epoxy resin, triphenylmethane type epoxy resin, tetraphenylethane type epoxy resin, dicyclohexyl ether type epoxy resin, and the like.

[0158] The ratio of the epoxy resin represented by the general formula (8) or (9) to the epoxy resin having an epoxy equivalent of 100 to 300 g / eq is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of facilitating phase separation in the cured product, the mass ratio of the former to the latter is 97:3 to 3:97, preferably 10:90 to 90:10, and particularly preferably 80:20 to 20:80. Phase separation in the cured product results in a sea-island structure, which achieves both adhesiveness and stress relaxation ability of the cured product, exhibits high adhesive strength in a particularly wide temperature range, and has the effect of reducing the molding shrinkage rate before and after heat curing of the resin composition.

[0232] The curable resin composition of the present invention can be prepared by uniformly mixing the above-mentioned components, and the method is not particularly limited.

In addition, in the preparation of the curable resin composition, the specific order of mixing the constituent materials is not particularly limited.

[0234] The cured product of the present invention is obtained by curing a compound (I) reactive with a hydroxyl group-containing compound by the hydroxyl group-containing compound of the present invention. The curing method can be appropriately selected and adopted from known methods depending on the properties of the compound (I) reactive with a hydroxyl group-containing compound used.

[0235] The cured product of the present invention is cured by the hydroxyl group-containing compound of the present invention as described above, and thus can maintain good mechanical strength by exhibiting a suitable crosslinking density. In addition, when mechanical energy such as scratches or external force is applied to the cured product of the present invention, the reversible bond is broken, but since the equilibrium shifts in the bond direction, an adduct is formed again, which is considered to enable repair of scratches and remolding.

[0236] The structure of the obtained cured product can be confirmed by infrared absorption (IR) spectroscopy using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) or the like, elemental analysis, X-ray scattering, or the like.

[0237] As described above, the cured product, which is one embodiment of the present invention, can be obtained by using the hydroxyl group-containing compound of the present invention as one component of a curable resin composition. However, it is also possible to use the aforementioned conjugated diene intermediate or dienophilic intermediate, which is an intermediate of the hydroxyl group-containing compound, in combination with a compound capable of addition reaction by Diels-Alder reaction, and form the hydroxyl group-containing compound during the curing process (while synthesizing in situ) to obtain a cured product.

[0238] For example, when a curing reaction is carried out using the above formula (1-1)', a maleimide having a hydroxyl group, and a compound (I) having reactivity with the above hydroxyl group-containing compound as essential raw materials, the hydroxyl group-containing compound represented by the above formula (1-1) can be obtained in the course of the curing reaction, and a cured product can be obtained as the curing reaction progresses.

The anthracene having a hydroxyl group that can be used in this case is the same as that described above.

[0240] The curable resin composition of the present invention and a cured product produced from the curable resin composition are excellent in both heat resistance and repairability, and are also remoldable, and are useful for the following applications.

[0241] The curable resin cured product of the present invention can be laminated with a substrate to form a laminate. The substrate of the laminate may be an inorganic material such as metal or glass, or an organic material such as plastic or wood, and may be used as appropriate depending on the application. The substrate may be in the shape of a laminate, a flat plate, a sheet, or a three-dimensional structure, or may be three-dimensional. The substrate may have any shape according to the purpose, such as a substrate having a cured surface or a part thereof. There is no restriction on the hardness, thickness, etc. of the substrate. The first substrate, a layer made of the cured product of the curable resin composition of the present invention, and a second substrate may be laminated in this order to form a multilayer laminate. The curable resin composition of the present embodiment has excellent adhesiveness, and therefore can be suitably used as an adhesive for bonding the first substrate and the second substrate. The curable resin cured product of the present invention may be used as a substrate, and the cured product of the present invention may be further laminated.

[0242] In addition, the cured product of the curable resin of the present invention can relieve stress, and therefore can be suitably used for bonding different materials. For example, even in a laminate in which the substrate is a metal and / or metal oxide and the second substrate is a different material such as a plastic layer, the adhesive strength is maintained due to the stress relaxation ability of the cured product of the present invention.

[0243] In the laminate formed by laminating the cured product of the present invention and the substrate, the layer containing the cured product may be formed by direct coating or molding on the substrate, or an already molded product may be laminated. When directly coating, the coating method is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include spraying, spin coating, dip coating, roll coating, blade coating, doctor roll, doctor blade, curtain coating, slit coating, screen printing, and inkjet. When directly molding, examples include in-mold molding, insert molding, vacuum molding, extrusion lamination molding, and press molding. When laminating a molded composition, an uncured or semi-cured composition layer may be laminated and then cured, or a layer containing a cured product obtained by completely curing the composition may be laminated on the substrate. In addition, a precursor that can be a substrate may be coated on the cured product of the present invention and cured to laminate, or the precursor that can be a substrate or the composition of the present invention may be adhered in an uncured or semi-cured state and then cured. The precursor that can be a substrate is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include various curable resin compositions.

[0244] The cured product obtained by using the curable resin composition of the present invention has particularly high adhesion to metals and / or metal oxides, and can be particularly well used as a primer for metals. Metals include copper, aluminum, gold, silver, iron, platinum, chromium, nickel, tin, titanium, zinc, various alloys, and composite materials thereof, and metal oxides include single oxides and / or composite oxides of these metals. In particular, the cured product has excellent adhesion to iron, copper, and aluminum, and can be particularly well used as an adhesive for iron, copper, and aluminum.

[0245] The curable resin composition of the present invention can be suitably used as an adhesive for structural members in the fields of automobiles, trains, civil engineering and construction, electronics, aircraft, and the space industry. Even when used to bond different materials such as between metals and nonmetals, the adhesive can maintain high adhesion without being affected by changes in temperature environment, and peeling and the like is unlikely to occur. In addition to structural member applications, the adhesive can also be used as an adhesive for general office use, medical use, carbon fiber, storage battery cells, modules, and cases, and can be used as an adhesive for bonding optical components, an adhesive for bonding optical disks, an adhesive for mounting printed wiring boards, a die bonding adhesive, an adhesive for semiconductors such as underfills, an underfill for reinforcing BGAs, an anisotropic conductive film, an anisotropic conductive paste, and other mounting adhesives.

[0246] When the curable resin composition of the present invention has a fibrous substrate, and the fibrous substrate is a reinforcing fiber, the curable resin composition containing the fibrous substrate can be used as a fiber-reinforced resin. The method of adding the fibrous substrate to the composition is not particularly limited as long as it does not impair the effects of the present invention, and includes methods of compounding the fibrous substrate and the composition by kneading, coating, impregnation, injection, pressure bonding, etc., and can be appropriately selected depending on the form of the fiber and the use of the fiber-reinforced resin.

[0247] There is no particular limitation on the method of molding the fiber-reinforced resin. If a plate-shaped product is to be manufactured, an extrusion molding method is generally used, but it can also be manufactured by a flat press. In addition, extrusion molding, blow molding, compression molding, vacuum molding, injection molding, etc. can be used. If a film-shaped product is to be manufactured, in addition to the melt extrusion method, a solution casting method can be used. When a melt molding method is used, examples of the method include inflation film molding, cast molding, extrusion lamination molding, calendar molding, sheet molding, fiber molding, blow molding, injection molding, rotational molding, and coating molding. In addition, in the case of a resin that is cured by active energy rays, a cured product can be manufactured using various curing methods using active energy rays. In particular, when a thermosetting resin is used as the main component of the matrix resin, examples of the molding method include a molding method in which the molding material is made into a prepreg and pressurized and heated by a press or autoclave, and other examples of the molding method include RTM (Resin Transfer Molding) molding, VaRTM (Vacuum assist Resin Transfer Molding) molding, lamination molding, and hand layup molding.

[0248] The curable resin composition of the present invention, when used in a cured product, has good heat resistance and repairability, and is also remoldable, and can therefore be used as a molding material for large cases, motor housings, casting materials for the inside of cases, gears, pulleys, etc. These may be cured products of the resin alone, or may be cured products reinforced with fibers such as glass chips.

[0249] The fiber reinforced resin can form a state called an uncured or semi-cured prepreg. After distributing the product in the prepreg state, final curing may be performed to form a cured product. When forming a laminate, it is preferable to form a prepreg, then laminate other layers and then perform final curing, since this allows the formation of a laminate in which each layer is in close contact with each other. The mass ratio of the composition and the fibrous substrate used at this time is not particularly limited, but it is usually preferable to prepare the resin content in the prepreg to be 20 to 60 mass%.

[0250] The cured product of the present invention has good heat resistance and repairability, and has remoldability, and can be used as a heat-resistant material and an electronic material. In particular, it can be suitably used for semiconductor encapsulation materials, circuit boards, build-up films, build-up boards, adhesives, and resist materials. It can also be suitably used as a matrix resin for fiber-reinforced resins, and is particularly suitable as a highly heat-resistant prepreg. The heat-resistant and electronic components thus obtained can be suitably used for various applications, such as industrial machine parts, general machine parts, automobile, railway, and vehicle parts, space and aviation-related parts, electronic and electrical parts, building materials, containers and packaging materials, daily necessities, sports and leisure goods, and housing members for wind power generation, but are not limited thereto.

[0251] In particular, the adhesive can be suitably used as an adhesive for structural members in the fields of automobiles, trains, civil engineering and construction, electronics, aircraft, and the space industry, taking advantage of the excellent flexibility of the cured product. The adhesive of the present invention can maintain high adhesion without being affected by changes in temperature environment, even when used to bond different materials such as between metal and nonmetal, and peeling is unlikely to occur. In addition to structural member applications, the adhesive of the present invention can also be used as an adhesive for general office use, medical use, carbon fiber, storage battery cells, modules, and cases, and examples thereof include adhesives for bonding optical components, adhesives for bonding optical disks, adhesives for mounting printed wiring boards, die bonding adhesives, adhesives for semiconductors such as underfills, underfills for reinforcing BGAs, and mounting adhesives such as anisotropic conductive films and anisotropic conductive pastes.

[0252] Below, we will explain some representative products by giving examples.

[0253] 1. Semiconductor encapsulation materials As a method for obtaining a semiconductor encapsulating material from the resin composition of the present invention, the resin composition, the curing accelerator, and compounding agents such as inorganic fillers are melt-mixed sufficiently until homogeneous using an extruder, kneader, roll, etc. as necessary. In this case, fused silica is usually used as the inorganic filler, but when used as a high thermal conductivity semiconductor encapsulating material for power transistors and power ICs, it is preferable to use highly filled crystalline silica, alumina, silicon nitride, etc., which have a higher thermal conductivity than fused silica, or fused silica, crystalline silica, alumina, silicon nitride, etc. The filling rate is preferably in the range of 30 to 95 mass% per 100 parts by mass of the curable resin composition, and among them, in order to improve flame retardancy, moisture resistance, and solder crack resistance and to reduce the linear expansion coefficient, it is more preferable that the inorganic filler is 70 parts by mass or more, and even more preferable that the inorganic filler is 80 parts by mass or more.

[0254] 2. Semiconductor Devices The semiconductor package molding for obtaining a semiconductor device from the curable resin composition of the present invention can be carried out by molding the semiconductor encapsulating material using a casting machine, a transfer molding machine, an injection molding machine or the like, and then heating the molded product at 50 to 250°C for 2 to 10 hours.

[0255] 3. Printed Circuit Boards A method for obtaining a printed circuit board from the composition of the present invention includes laminating the above prepreg by a conventional method, appropriately overlaying copper foil, and heat-pressing the laminate at 170 to 300°C under a pressure of 1 to 10 MPa for 10 minutes to 3 hours.

[0256] 4. Flexible board The method for producing a flexible substrate from the crosslinkable resin composition of the present invention includes a method comprising the following three steps: The first step is to apply the crosslinkable resin composition containing a resin component, an organic solvent, etc., to an electrical insulating film using a coater such as a reverse roll coater or a comma coater, the second step is to heat the electrical insulating film to which the crosslinkable resin composition has been applied at 60 to 170°C for 1 to 15 minutes using a heater to volatilize the solvent from the electrical insulating film and to bring the crosslinkable resin composition to a B-stage, and the third step is to thermocompress (preferably a compression pressure of 2 to 200 N / cm and a compression temperature of 40 to 200°C) a metal foil to an adhesive on the electrical insulating film to which the crosslinkable resin composition has been brought to a B-stage using a heating roll or the like. If sufficient adhesive performance is obtained by going through the above three steps, the process may be terminated here, but if complete adhesive performance is required, it is preferable to further post-cure under conditions of 100 to 200° C. for 1 to 24 hours. The thickness of the resin composition layer after final curing is preferably in the range of 5 to 100 μm.

[0257] 5. Build-up board The method for obtaining a build-up board from the composition of the present invention includes, for example, the following steps. First, the above composition, which is appropriately blended with rubber, filler, etc., is applied to a circuit board on which a circuit is formed by using a spray coating method, a curtain coating method, etc., and then cured (step 1). Then, if necessary, a predetermined through-hole portion or the like is drilled, treated with a roughening agent, and the surface is washed with hot water to form unevenness, and a metal such as copper is plated (step 2). These operations are repeated as desired, and a resin insulating layer and a conductor layer of a predetermined circuit pattern are alternately built up to form the build-up (step 3). Note that the through-hole portion is drilled after the formation of the outermost resin insulating layer. In addition, the build-up board of the present invention can also be produced by forming a roughened surface by heating and pressing the resin-coated copper foil, which is obtained by semi-curing the resin composition on the copper foil, on a wiring board on which a circuit is formed, at 170 to 300 ° C., thereby omitting the steps of forming a roughened surface and plating.

[0258] 6. Build-up film A build-up film can be obtained from the composition of the present invention by applying the composition to the surface of a support film (Y) as a substrate, and then drying the organic solvent by heating or blowing hot air or the like to form a layer of the composition (X).

[0259] The organic solvent used here preferably includes, for example, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, cyclohexanone, etc., acetate esters such as ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, cellosolve acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, carbitol acetate, etc., carbitols such as cellosolve, butyl carbitol, etc., aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene, xylene, etc., dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, etc., and it is preferable to use the organic solvent in a proportion such that the nonvolatile content is 30 to 60 mass%.

[0260] The thickness of the layer (X) formed is usually equal to or greater than the thickness of the conductor layer. Since the thickness of the conductor layer of the circuit board is usually in the range of 5 to 70 μm, the thickness of the resin composition layer is preferably 10 to 100 μm. The layer (X) of the composition in the present invention may be protected with a protective film described below. By protecting the layer with a protective film, it is possible to prevent the adhesion of dirt and the like to the surface of the resin composition layer and prevent scratches.

[0261] Examples of the support film and protective film include polyolefins such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyvinyl chloride, polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as "PET") and polyethylene naphthalate, polycarbonate, polyimide, and even release paper and metal foils such as copper foil and aluminum foil. The support film and protective film may be subjected to a matte treatment, corona treatment, and / or release treatment. The thickness of the support film is not particularly limited, but is usually 10 to 150 μm, and is preferably in the range of 25 to 50 μm. The thickness of the protective film is preferably 1 to 40 μm.

[0262] The support film (Y) is peeled off after laminating it on a circuit board or after forming an insulating layer by heat curing. If the support film (Y) is peeled off after the curable resin composition layer constituting the build-up film is heat cured, adhesion of dust and the like during the curing process can be prevented. When peeling off after curing, the support film is usually subjected to a release treatment in advance.

[0263] A multilayer printed circuit board can be manufactured using the build-up film obtained as described above. For example, when the layer (X) is protected by a protective film, the protective film is peeled off, and then the layer (X) is laminated, for example, by a vacuum lamination method, on one or both sides of the circuit board so as to be in direct contact with the circuit board. The lamination method may be a batch method or a continuous method using a roll. If necessary, the build-up film and the circuit board may be heated (preheated) before lamination. The lamination conditions are preferably a pressure bonding temperature (lamination temperature) of 70 to 140°C and a pressure bonding pressure of 1 to 11 kgf / cm2 (9.8×10 4 ~107.9×10 4 N / m 2 ), and lamination is preferably performed under reduced air pressure of 20 mmHg (26.7 hPa) or less.

[0264] 7.Conductive paste A method for obtaining a conductive paste from the composition of the present invention includes, for example, dispersing conductive particles in the composition. The conductive paste can be a paste resin composition for circuit connection or an anisotropic conductive adhesive depending on the type of conductive particles used. EXAMPLES
