Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a photosensitive resin composition, and more specifically to a black photosensitive resin composition that can be suitably used for forming an insulating layer such as a solder resist, a dry film using the photosensitive resin composition, a cured product of the photosensitive resin composition or the dry film, and a printed wiring board using these cured products. [Background technology]
[0002] In general, when mounting electronic components on a printed wiring board used in electronic devices, a resin composition is applied to the area of the board on which the circuit pattern is formed, except for the connection holes, or a dry coating film is laminated on a dry film, and then hardened to form a solder resist. This solder resist prevents solder from adhering to unnecessary areas and protects the conductors of the circuit. Solder resist also plays a role in preventing deterioration of the appearance of the printed wiring board by concealing discoloration of the circuit pattern due to heat or moisture, electrical discoloration, scratches, dirt, etc. Therefore, in order to improve concealment, a colorant is usually added to the resin composition or dry film used to form the solder resist (for example, Patent Document 1, etc.).
[0003] In recent years, in response to the demand for smaller electronic devices and higher performance, the circuit patterns of printed wiring boards have become finer, and accordingly, solder resists have become thinner. As a result, the concealing ability of the solder resist may decrease, leading to poor appearance. For this reason, it has been proposed to improve the concealing ability by using a black solder resist. In addition, black solder resists are sometimes used to impart design appeal.
[0004] As a photosensitive resin composition used for the above-mentioned applications, a black photosensitive resin composition containing a black colorant such as carbon black is known (for example, Patent Document 2). However, a photosensitive resin composition with excellent concealing properties also has a low light transmittance, so the resolution of patterning during exposure tends to decrease. Therefore, the higher the resolution of parts becomes, the more difficult it is to meet the demands of conventional black photosensitive resin compositions. In addition, the thicker the coating film of a black photosensitive resin composition, the worse the curing property in the deeper parts tends to be.
[0005] In response to the above problems, a black curable resin composition has been proposed that uses a specific organic coloring pigment to ensure the transmittance of light (wavelengths in the ultraviolet region) during exposure while maintaining low light transmittance in the visible light region. For example, a photosensitive resin composition has been proposed that can maintain photocurability in the depths even when the black color is darkened by using two or more colored colorants in combination without using a colorant such as carbon black (Patent Document 3). In addition, it has been proposed to improve photosensitivity in a black photosensitive resin composition containing a black colorant such as carbon black, perylene black, aniline black, or titanium black by using an acylphosphine oxide-based photopolymerization initiator, an α-aminoalkylphenone-based photopolymerization initiator, an oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiator, or the like as a photopolymerization initiator (Patent Document 4).

[0007] The black curable resin compositions proposed in the above-mentioned patent documents are black in color and have excellent resolution. However, in cases where a thick solder resist (e.g., 40 μm or more) is required, the resolution deteriorates, and it has been necessary to lower the optical density.
[0008] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a photosensitive resin composition which maintains excellent blackness and hiding power and also has excellent resolution even when applied to form a thick coating film. [Means for solving the problem]
[0009] The present inventors have conducted research into the above-mentioned problems, and have found that by using three specific colorants in addition to carbon black as a black colorant, a photosensitive resin composition that maintains excellent blackness and hiding power and also has excellent resolution, even when a thick coating film is formed, can be realized. The present invention is based on this finding. That is, the gist of the present invention is as follows.

[6] The photosensitive resin composition according to any one of [1] to [5], wherein the (C) colorant is contained in an amount of 1 to 4 mass % based on the total solid content of the photosensitive resin composition. [7] A dry film comprising: a first film; and a resin layer formed by applying the photosensitive resin composition according to any one of [1] to [6] on one surface of the first film and drying the composition. [8] A cured product obtained by curing the resin layer of the photosensitive resin composition according to any one of [1] to [6] or the dry film according to [7]. [9] A printed wiring board having a coating made of the cured product described in [8]. Effect of the Invention
[0011] According to the present invention, by using three specific colorants in addition to carbon black as a black colorant, it is possible to realize a photosensitive resin composition that maintains excellent blackness and hiding power and also has excellent resolution, even in the case of forming a thick coating film. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0012] [Photosensitive resin composition] The photosensitive resin composition according to the present invention comprises, as essential components, (A) an alkali-soluble resin, (B) a photopolymerization initiator, (C) a colorant, and (D) a photopolymerizable monomer, and is characterized in that the (C) colorant comprises (C1) carbon black, (C2) a perylene-based purple colorant, (C3) a blue colorant, and (C4) a yellow or orange colorant. As described above, when carbon black is used as a black colorant, there is a trade-off between blackness, hiding power, resolution, and deep curing ability. In the present invention, in addition to carbon black, a combination of multiple colored colorants (purple colorant, blue colorant, and yellow or orange colorant) is used to realize a black color, and by using a perylene-based purple colorant as a purple colorant, the resolution is improved while maintaining excellent blackness and hiding power even when a thick coating film is formed. That is, by using a combination of a plurality of colored colorants to produce a black color, and by using a perylene-based purple colorant that has high transmittance for the ultraviolet light (h-line and i-line) used for exposure and low transmittance in a wide range of 450 to 600 nm as the purple colorant, it is believed that the resolution in the deep part is improved even in the case of a thick coating film. Hereinafter, each component constituting the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention will be described.
[0013] <(A) Alkali-soluble resin> The (A) alkali-soluble resin contained in the photosensitive resin composition according to the present invention may be any resin that is alkali-soluble, and known and commonly used resins are used. The alkali-soluble resin may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Examples include water-soluble resins such as carboxyl group-containing resins and phenolic hydroxyl group-containing resins. Among them, carboxyl group-containing resins and phenolic hydroxyl group-containing resins are preferred because of their excellent developability, and carboxyl group-containing resins are more preferred. The alkali-soluble resin can be made alkaline developable by containing a carboxyl group. In addition, from the viewpoint of photosensitivity, it is preferable to have an ethylenically unsaturated double bond in the molecule in addition to the carboxyl group, but only a carboxyl group-containing resin that does not have an ethylenically unsaturated double bond may be used. When the carboxyl group-containing resin does not have an ethylenically unsaturated double bond, it is necessary to use a photopolymerizable monomer in combination to make the composition photocurable. As the ethylenically unsaturated double bond, one derived from acrylic acid or methacrylic acid or a derivative thereof is preferred.

[0023] (9) A carboxyl group-containing photosensitive resin obtained by reacting an epoxy compound having multiple epoxy groups in one molecule with a compound having at least one alcoholic hydroxyl group and one phenolic hydroxyl group in one molecule, such as p-hydroxyphenethyl alcohol, and an unsaturated group-containing monocarboxylic acid, such as (meth)acrylic acid, and then reacting the alcoholic hydroxyl group of the resulting reaction product with a polybasic acid anhydride, such as maleic anhydride, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, trimellitic anhydride, pyromellitic anhydride, adipic acid, or the like.
[0024] (10) A carboxyl group-containing photosensitive resin obtained by reacting a compound having multiple phenolic hydroxyl groups in one molecule with an alkylene oxide such as ethylene oxide or propylene oxide, reacting the reaction product obtained with an unsaturated group-containing monocarboxylic acid, and reacting the resulting reaction product with a polybasic acid anhydride.

Among the above, the carboxyl group-containing resins synthesized using a compound having a phenolic hydroxyl group as a starting material, such as the carboxyl group-containing resins (10) and (11), are preferably used because of their excellent HAST resistance and PCT resistance.
[0028] The acid value of the carboxyl group-containing resin is preferably 40 to 150 mgKOH / g.

[0029] The weight average molecular weight of the carboxyl group-containing resin varies depending on the resin skeleton, but is generally preferably 2,000 to 150,000. By making the weight average molecular weight 2,000 or more, it is possible to improve tack-free performance and resolution. Furthermore, by making the weight average molecular weight 150,000 or less, it is possible to improve developability and storage stability. It is more preferably 5,000 to 15,000. The weight average molecular weight can be measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC).

As the colorant, a known colorant such as red, green, or yellow can be used, and any of a pigment, dye, and coloring matter can be used, but from the viewpoint of reducing the environmental load and having little effect on the human body, a colorant that does not contain halogen is preferable.
[0062] The photosensitive resin composition may contain an organic solvent from the viewpoint of ease of preparation and coatability when forming a resin layer. Examples of the organic solvent include ketones such as methyl ethyl ketone and cyclohexanone; aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene, xylene, and tetramethylbenzene; glycol ethers such as cellosolve, methyl cellosolve, butyl cellosolve, carbitol, methyl carbitol, butyl carbitol, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol diethyl ether, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, and tripropylene glycol monomethyl ether; esters such as ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, butyl lactate, cellosolve acetate, butyl cellosolve acetate, carbitol acetate, butyl carbitol acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, and propylene carbonate; aliphatic hydrocarbons such as octane and decane; and petroleum-based solvents such as petroleum ether, petroleum naphtha, and solvent naphtha.

The first film in the dry film according to the present invention refers to a film that is at least adhered to the resin layer when the film is laminated by heating or the like onto a substrate such as a board so that the resin layer made of the photosensitive resin composition formed on the dry film is in contact with the substrate and integrally molded. The first film may be peeled off from the resin layer in a step after lamination. In particular, in the present invention, it is preferable to peel off from the resin layer in a step after exposure.
[0066] To prepare a dry film, the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention is diluted with an organic solvent to adjust the viscosity to an appropriate level, and then coated onto a first film in a uniform thickness using a comma coater, blade coater, lip coater, rod coater, squeeze coater, reverse coater, transfer roll coater, gravure coater, spray coater, or the like, and typically dried for 1 to 30 minutes at a temperature of 50 to 130° C. to obtain a film.

[0067] As the first film, any known film can be used without any particular limitation, and for example, a film made of a thermoplastic resin such as a polyester film such as polyethylene terephthalate or polyethylene naphthalate, a polyimide film, a polyamideimide film, a polypropylene film, or a polystyrene film can be suitably used. Among these, a polyester film is preferred from the viewpoints of heat resistance, mechanical strength, handling, etc. A laminate of these films can also be used as the first film.
[0068] From the viewpoint of improving mechanical strength, the above-mentioned thermoplastic resin film is preferably a film stretched in a uniaxial or biaxial direction.
[0069] The thickness of the first film is not particularly limited, but can be, for example, 10 μm to 150 μm.
[0070] After forming a resin layer of the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention on the first film, it is preferable to further laminate a peelable second film on the surface of the resin layer for the purpose of preventing dust from adhering to the surface of the resin layer, etc. The second film in the dry film of the present invention refers to a film that is peeled off from the resin layer before lamination when the dry film is laminated by heating or the like so that the resin layer side of the dry film is in contact with a base material such as a substrate to be integrally molded.
[0071] The second film that can be peeled off from the resin layer may be, for example, a polyethylene film, a polytetrafluoroethylene film, a polypropylene film, surface-treated paper, etc., as long as the adhesive strength between the resin layer and the second film is smaller than the adhesive strength between the resin layer and the first film when the second film is peeled off.
[0072] The thickness of the second film is not particularly limited, but can be, for example, 10 μm to 150 μm.
[0073] <Cured product> The cured product of the present invention is obtained by curing the above-mentioned photosensitive resin composition or the resin layer of the above-mentioned dry film.
[0074] <Printed wiring board> The printed wiring board of the present invention has a cured product obtained from the resin layer of the photosensitive resin composition or dry film of the present invention. As a method for producing the printed wiring board of the present invention, for example, the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention is adjusted to a viscosity suitable for the coating method using the organic solvent, and applied to a substrate by a method such as dip coating, flow coating, roll coating, bar coating, screen printing, or curtain coating, and then the organic solvent contained in the composition is evaporated and dried (temporarily dried) at a temperature of 60 to 100 ° C. to form a tack-free resin layer. In addition, in the case of a dry film, the resin layer is attached to the substrate by a laminator or the like so that the resin layer contacts the substrate, and then the first film is peeled off to form a resin layer on the substrate.
[0075] The above-mentioned substrates include printed wiring boards and flexible printed wiring boards with circuits formed in advance using copper or the like, as well as materials such as paper phenol, paper epoxy, glass cloth epoxy, glass polyimide, glass cloth / non-woven epoxy, glass cloth / paper epoxy, synthetic fiber epoxy, copper-clad laminates for high-frequency circuits using materials such as fluororesin-polyethylene-polyphenylene ether, polyphenylene oxide-cyanate, etc., including copper-clad laminates of all grades (FR-4, etc.), as well as metal substrates, polyimide films, polyethylene terephthalate films, polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) films, glass substrates, ceramic substrates, wafer plates, etc.
[0076] In the case of a dry film form, the lamination onto the substrate is preferably performed under pressure and heat using a vacuum laminator or the like. By using such a vacuum laminator, when a circuit-formed substrate is used, even if the surface of the circuit substrate is uneven, the dry film adheres to the circuit substrate, so that no air bubbles are mixed in, and the filling of the recesses on the substrate surface is improved. The pressure condition is preferably about 0.1 to 2.0 MPa, and the heating condition is preferably 40 to 120°C.
[0077] When the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention contains an organic solvent, it is preferable to apply the photosensitive resin composition to the surface of a substrate and then perform volatilization drying. The volatilization drying can be performed using a hot air circulation drying oven, an IR oven, a hot plate, a convection oven, etc. (a method of countercurrent contact of hot air in a dryer using a heat source of an air heating method using steam, or a method of spraying the hot air from a nozzle onto the substrate).
[0078] After forming a resin layer on a substrate, the resin layer is selectively exposed to active energy rays through a photomask having a predetermined pattern formed thereon, and the unexposed portion is developed with a dilute alkaline aqueous solution (e.g., 0.3 to 3 mass% aqueous sodium carbonate solution) to form a pattern of the cured product. In the case of a dry film, after exposure, the first film is peeled off from the dry film and development is performed to form a patterned cured product on the substrate. In addition, in the case of a dry film form, the first film may be peeled off from the dry film before exposure, and the exposed resin layer may be exposed and developed, as long as the characteristics are not impaired. Furthermore, a cured coating excellent in various properties such as adhesion and hardness can be formed by irradiating the cured product with active energy rays and then heat curing (e.g., 100 to 220°C), or irradiating active energy rays after heat curing, or by heat curing only to perform final finish curing (main curing).
[0079] The exposure machine used for the above-mentioned active energy ray irradiation may be a machine equipped with a high pressure mercury lamp, an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp, a metal halide lamp, a mercury short arc lamp, or the like, and capable of irradiating ultraviolet rays in the range of 350 to 450 nm. Furthermore, a direct imaging machine (for example, a laser direct imaging machine that directly draws an image with a laser based on CAD data from a computer) may also be used. The lamp light source or laser light source of the direct imaging machine may have a maximum wavelength in the range of 350 to 450 nm. The exposure dose for forming an image varies depending on the film thickness, etc., but is generally 10 to 1000 mJ / cm. 2 , preferably 20 to 800 mJ / cm 2 The range may be:
[0080] The developing method can be a dipping method, a shower method, a spray method, a brush method, or the like, and the developing solution can be an aqueous alkali solution of potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium phosphate, sodium silicate, ammonia, amines, or the like.
[0081] After the cured coating is formed on the substrate as described above, components such as electronic elements are mounted on the substrate by solder reflow treatment. The solder reflow treatment can be performed by a conventionally known method. In general, the solder reflow treatment is performed under treatment conditions of, for example, 245 to 260°C for 5 to 10 seconds.
[0082] The photosensitive resin composition or dry film of the present invention is preferably used for manufacturing electronic parts such as printed wiring boards, and more preferably used to form a permanent coating. In this case, the photosensitive resin composition or dry film of the present invention is used to form a cured product by the above-mentioned method or the like. When the resin layer of the photosensitive resin composition or dry film of the present invention is insulating, it is preferably used to form a solder resist, a coverlay, or an interlayer insulating layer.

Each of the photosensitive resin compositions obtained as described above was applied to the copper foil surface of the printed wiring board, the surface of which had been CZ-treated, using an applicator, and dried at 80° C. for 10 minutes to form a resin layer. Next, the resin layer was exposed to light using an exposure device equipped with a high-pressure mercury lamp (short arc lamp), and developed with a 1% by mass aqueous solution of sodium carbonate at 30°C for 60 seconds under conditions of a spray pressure of 0.2 MPa. The obtained substrate was then exposed to light in a UV conveyor furnace with an integrated exposure dose of 1000 mJ / cm. 2 After irradiating with ultraviolet light under the above conditions, the resin layer was cured by heating at 150° C. for 60 minutes, thereby producing a substrate in which a 10 μm-thick cured product was formed on the copper foil. Next, the surface of the cured product of the substrate obtained as described above was measured for a* and b* in the L*a*b* color system using a spectrophotometer (CM-2600d, manufactured by Konica Minolta) under conditions including total reflected light in accordance with JIS Z 8729.
[0091] From the obtained a* and b*, the blackness was evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. ◯: a value is -5 to 5 and b value is -5 to 5 △: a value is -10 to -5 or 5 to 10, and b value is -10 to -5 or 5 to 10 ×: a value is <-10 or >10 and b value is <-10 or >10 The results are shown in Table 1.
[0092] [Table 1]
[0093] As is clear from the results in Table 1, when a photosensitive resin composition (Comparative Example 1) containing a purple pigment having a quinacridone skeleton with weak absorption around 450 to 600 nm as a colorant is cured, the Δa* value and Δb* value become larger than 1.0 when the film thickness is changed from 10 μm to 20 μm, and it is found that the hiding power is insufficient. In contrast, when a photosensitive resin composition (Examples 1 to 4) containing a perylene-based purple pigment as a colorant with strong absorption from 450 to 600 μm is cured, the Δa* value and / or Δb* value are 1.0 or less when the film thickness is changed from 10 μm to 20 μm, and it is found that the hiding power is improved and the L*a*b* value does not change even when the film thickness is changed. Furthermore, as is clear from a comparison between Examples 1 and 4, it can be seen that the resolution is improved by combining a titanocene initiator as a photopolymerization initiator. This is believed to be due to the fact that the titanocene initiator has a wide absorption range extending beyond the ultraviolet region and has excellent deep curing properties, and the perylene purple colorant has high transmittance in the ultraviolet region.
