It is preferable that the adhesive force between the photosensitive resin composition layer and the protective film is smaller than the adhesive force between the photosensitive resin composition layer and the support.

[0108] The photosensitive film can be produced, for example, by applying a photosensitive resin composition onto a support and drying the (G) solvent as necessary.

[0109] [Semiconductor package substrate] The semiconductor package substrate of the present invention includes an insulating layer formed of a cured product of the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention.

[0110] Specifically, the semiconductor package substrate of the first embodiment of the present invention can be manufactured using the above-described photosensitive resin composition, and the cured product of the photosensitive resin composition is used as an insulating layer. Specifically, the method for manufacturing a semiconductor package substrate includes (I) a step of forming a photosensitive resin composition layer containing the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention on a circuit board, (II) a step of irradiating the photosensitive resin composition layer with actinic rays, and (III) a step of developing the photosensitive resin composition layer, in this order.

[0111] <Step (I)> Examples of the method for forming the photosensitive resin composition layer include a method of directly applying a resin varnish containing the photosensitive resin composition onto the circuit board and a method using the photosensitive film.

[0112] When directly applying a resin varnish containing the photosensitive resin composition onto the circuit board, a photosensitive resin composition layer is formed on the circuit board by drying and volatilizing the (G) component.

[0113] Examples of the application method of the resin varnish include, for example, gravure coating method, microgravure coating method, reverse coating method, kiss reverse coating method, die coating method, slot die method, lip coating method, comma coating method, blade coating method, roll coating method, knife coating method, curtain coating method, chamber gravure coating method, slot orifice method, spin coating method, slit coating method, spray coating method, dip coating method, hot melt coating method, bar coating method, applicator method, air knife coating method, curtain flow coating method, offset printing method, brush painting method, full-surface printing method by screen printing method, etc.

[0114] The resin varnish may be applied in several portions, may be applied once, or may be applied by combining a plurality of different methods. Among them, the die coating method, which is excellent in uniform coating properties, is preferable. Also, in order to avoid foreign matter contamination, etc., it is preferable to carry out the coating process in an environment with less generation of foreign matter such as a clean room.

[0115] After applying the resin varnish, drying is carried out using a hot air furnace or an infrared furnace, etc. as necessary. The drying conditions are preferably 80°C to 120°C for 3 minutes to 13 minutes. In this way, a photosensitive resin composition layer is formed on the circuit board.

[0116] Examples of the circuit board include, for example, glass epoxy board, metal board, polyester board, polyimide board, BT resin board, thermosetting polyphenylene ether board, etc. Here, the circuit board refers to a board in which a conductor layer (circuit) subjected to pattern processing is formed on one or both sides of the support board as described above. Also, in a multilayer printed wiring board formed by alternately laminating a conductor layer and an insulating layer, a board in which one or both sides of the outermost layer of the multilayer printed wiring board are conductor layers (circuits) subjected to pattern processing is also included in the circuit board referred to here. Note that the surface of the conductor layer may be previously roughened by blackening treatment, copper etching, etc.

[0117] On the other hand, when using a photosensitive film, the photosensitive resin composition layer side is laminated on one or both sides of the circuit board using a vacuum laminator. In the lamination process, if the photosensitive film has a protective film, the protective film is removed, and then, if necessary, the photosensitive film and the circuit board are preheated, and the photosensitive resin composition layer is pressure-bonded to the circuit board while applying pressure and heat. In the case of a photosensitive film, a method of laminating it on the circuit board under reduced pressure by the vacuum lamination method is preferably used.

[0118] The lamination conditions are not particularly limited. For example, the pressure-bonding temperature (lamination temperature) is preferably 70°C to 140°C, and the pressure-bonding pressure is preferably 1 kgf / cm 2 ~11 kgf / cm 2 (9.8×10 4 N / m 2 ~107.9×10 4 N / m 2 ), the pressure-bonding time is preferably 5 seconds to 300 seconds, and it is preferably laminated under reduced pressure with an air pressure of 20 mmHg (26.7 hPa) or less. Also, the lamination process may be a batch type or a continuous type using a roll. The vacuum lamination method can be carried out using a commercially available vacuum laminator. Examples of commercially available vacuum laminators include the Vacuum Applicator manufactured by Nippon Materials Co., Ltd., the Vacuum Pressure Laminator manufactured by Meiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd., the Roll-Type Dry Coater manufactured by Hitachi Industries Co., Ltd., the Vacuum Laminator manufactured by Hitachi AIC Inc., and the like.

[0119] <Process (II)> After a photosensitive resin composition layer is provided on the circuit board, then, through a mask pattern, an exposure process of irradiating a predetermined portion of the photosensitive resin composition layer with actinic rays is performed. Examples of actinic rays include ultraviolet rays, visible rays, electron beams, X-rays, etc., and ultraviolet rays are particularly preferred. The irradiation amount of ultraviolet rays is generally 10 mJ / cm 2 ~1000 mJ / cm 2This is the case. As for the exposure method, there are a contact exposure method in which a mask pattern is brought into close contact with a circuit board and a non-contact exposure method in which parallel light rays are used for exposure without bringing them into close contact, and either method may be used.

[0120] In step (II), as the mask pattern, for example, a via pattern such as a round hole pattern can be used to form vias. The via diameter (opening diameter) is preferably 100 μm or less, more preferably 50 μm or less, and even more preferably 30 μm or less. The lower limit is not particularly limited, but can be 0.1 μm or more, 0.5 μm or more, etc.

[0121] <Step (III)> After the exposure step, a pattern can be formed by performing a development step of removing the unexposed portion of the photosensitive resin composition layer with a developer. Development is usually performed by wet development.

[0122] In the case of the above wet development, as the developer, a developer that is safe, stable, and has good operability, such as an alkaline solution, an aqueous developer, or an organic solvent, is used. Also, as the development method, known methods such as spraying, rocking immersion, brushing, and scraping are appropriately employed.

An aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) is preferable in that it does not contain metal ions and does not affect the semiconductor chip.

[0124] These alkaline aqueous solutions can contain surfactants, antifoaming agents, etc. to improve the development effect. The pH of the above alkaline aqueous solution is preferably in the range of 8 to 12, more preferably in the range of 9 to 11. Also, the base concentration of the above alkaline aqueous solution is preferably 0.1% by mass to 10% by mass. The temperature of the above alkaline aqueous solution can be appropriately selected according to the developability of the photosensitive resin composition layer, but is preferably 20°C to 50°C.

[0126] The concentration of such organic solvents is preferably 2% by mass to 90% by mass based on the total amount of the developer. Also, the temperature of such organic solvents can be adjusted according to the developability. Furthermore, such organic solvents can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Examples of organic solvent-based developers used alone include 1,1,1-trichloroethane, N-methylpyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylformamide, cyclohexanone, methyl isobutyl ketone, γ-butyrolactone.

[0127] In pattern formation, two or more developing methods can be used in combination as needed. Examples of developing methods include dip method, paddle method, spray method, high-pressure spray method, brushing, slapping, etc. The high-pressure spray method is suitable for improving resolution. When the spray method is adopted, the spray pressure is preferably 0.05 MPa to 0.3 MPa.

[0128] <Thermosetting (post-baking) process> After the completion of the above step (III), a thermal curing (post-baking) step is performed as necessary. In the above steps (I) to (III), the curing of the photosensitive resin composition layer may progress, but by the thermal curing step, the curing of the photosensitive resin composition can be further advanced to obtain an insulating layer with excellent mechanical strength. Examples of the post-baking step include a heating step using a clean oven. The atmosphere during thermal curing may be air or an inert gas atmosphere such as nitrogen. The heating conditions may be appropriately selected according to the type and content of the resin component in the photosensitive resin composition, but are preferably in the range of 150°C to 250°C for 20 minutes to 180 minutes, more preferably in the range of 160°C to 230°C for 30 minutes to 120 minutes.

[0129] <Other steps> The method for manufacturing a semiconductor package substrate may further include a drilling step and a desmear step after forming the insulating layer as the cured photosensitive resin composition layer. These steps may be carried out according to various methods known to those skilled in the art used for manufacturing a semiconductor package substrate.

[0130] After forming the insulating layer, if desired, a drilling step is performed on the insulating layer formed on the circuit board to form via holes and through holes. The drilling step can be carried out by known methods such as drill, laser, plasma, etc., and if necessary, these methods can be combined. However, a laser drilling step using a carbon dioxide laser, a YAG laser, etc. is preferred.

[0131] The desmear step is a step of performing desmear treatment. Generally, resin residues (smear) adhere inside the openings formed in the drilling step. Since such smear causes poor electrical connection, a treatment (desmear treatment) for removing the smear is carried out in this step.

[0132] The desmear treatment may be carried out by dry desmear treatment, wet desmear treatment, or a combination thereof.

[0133] Examples of dry desmear treatment include, for example, desmear treatment using plasma. Desmear treatment using plasma can be carried out using a commercially available plasma desmear treatment apparatus. Among commercially available plasma desmear treatment apparatuses, suitable examples for the production of semiconductor package substrates include a microwave plasma apparatus manufactured by Nissin Corporation, an atmospheric pressure plasma etching apparatus manufactured by Sekisui Chemical Co., Ltd., and the like.

[0134] Examples of wet desmear treatment include, for example, desmear treatment using an oxidizing agent solution. When performing desmear treatment using an oxidizing agent solution, it is preferable to perform swelling treatment with a swelling solution, oxidation treatment with an oxidizing agent solution, and neutralization treatment with a neutralizing solution in this order. Examples of the swelling solution include "Swelling Dip Security Gun P" and "Swelling Dip Security SBU" manufactured by Atotech Japan Co., Ltd. The swelling treatment is preferably carried out by immersing the substrate having formed vias and the like in a swelling solution heated to 60°C to 80°C for 5 minutes to 10 minutes. As the oxidizing agent solution, an alkaline permanganic acid aqueous solution is preferable, and examples thereof include a solution in which potassium permanganate or sodium permanganate is dissolved in an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. The oxidation treatment with the oxidizing agent solution is preferably carried out by immersing the substrate after the swelling treatment in an oxidizing agent solution heated to 60°C to 80°C for 10 minutes to 30 minutes. Commercially available products of the alkaline permanganic acid aqueous solution include, for example, "Concentrate Compact CP" and "Dosing Solution Security Gun P" manufactured by Atotech Japan Co., Ltd. The neutralization treatment with the neutralizing solution is preferably carried out by immersing the substrate after the oxidation treatment in a neutralizing solution at 30°C to 50°C for 3 minutes to 10 minutes. As the neutralizing solution, an acidic aqueous solution is preferable, and commercially available products include, for example, "Reduction Solution Security Ant P" manufactured by Atotech Japan Co., Ltd.

[0135] When performing a combination of dry desmear treatment and wet desmear treatment, the dry desmear treatment may be carried out first, or the wet desmear treatment may be carried out first.

[0136] Regardless of whether the insulating layer is formed as any of the rewiring formation layer, the interlayer insulating layer, and the solder resist, after the thermosetting process, a drilling process and a desmear process may be performed. Further, in the method for manufacturing a semiconductor package substrate, a plating process may be further performed.

[0137] The plating process is a process of forming a conductor layer on the insulating layer. The conductor layer may be formed by sputtering after forming the insulating layer, may be formed by combining electroless plating and electroplating, or may form a plating resist having a pattern opposite to that of the conductor layer and form the conductor layer only by electroless plating. As a method for pattern formation thereafter, for example, a subtractive method, a semi-additive method, or the like known to those skilled in the art can be used.

[0138] The semiconductor package substrate according to the second embodiment of the present invention can be manufactured using the above-described photosensitive resin composition, and the cured product of the photosensitive resin composition is used as a rewiring formation layer. Specifically, the method for manufacturing a semiconductor package substrate is (A) a step of laminating a temporary fixing film on a base material, (B) a step of temporarily fixing a semiconductor chip on the temporary fixing film, (C) a step of forming a sealing layer on the semiconductor chip, (D) a step of peeling the base material and the temporary fixing film from the semiconductor chip, (E) a step of forming a rewiring formation layer as an insulating layer on the surface of the semiconductor chip from which the base material and the temporary fixing film have been peeled, (F) a step of forming a rewiring layer as a conductor layer on the rewiring formation layer, and (G) a step of forming a solder resist layer on the rewiring layer, is included. Further, the method for manufacturing the semiconductor chip package is (H) a step of dicing and singulating a plurality of semiconductor chip packages into individual semiconductor chip packages, may be included.

[0139] <Step (A)> Step (A) is a step of laminating a temporary fixing film on a base material. The lamination conditions between the base material and the temporary fixing film are not particularly limited. For example, the crimping temperature (lamination temperature) is preferably 70°C to 140°C, the crimping pressure is preferably 1 kgf / cm 2 ~11 kgf / cm 2 , the crimping time is preferably 5 seconds to 300 seconds, and it is preferable to laminate under reduced pressure with an air pressure of 20 mmHg or less. Also, the lamination process may be a batch type or a continuous type using rolls. The vacuum lamination method can be carried out using a commercially available vacuum laminator. Examples of commercially available vacuum laminators include the Vacuum Applicator manufactured by Nichco Materials Co., Ltd., the Vacuum Press Laminator manufactured by Meiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd., the Roll Type Dry Coater manufactured by Hitachi Industries Co., Ltd., the Vacuum Laminator manufactured by Hitachi AIC Inc., etc.

[0140] Examples of the base material include silicon wafers; glass wafers; glass substrates; metal substrates such as copper, titanium, stainless steel, cold-rolled steel sheets (SPCC); substrates in which glass fibers are impregnated with an epoxy resin or the like and heat-cured, such as FR-4 substrates; substrates made of bismaleimide triazine resins such as BT resins; and the like.

[0141] The temporary fixing film can be peeled from the semiconductor chip and any material that can temporarily fix the semiconductor chip can be used. Examples of commercially available products include "Revival Alpha" manufactured by Nitto Denko Corporation.

[0142] <Step (B)> Step (B) is a step of temporarily fixing a semiconductor chip on the temporary fixing film. The temporary fixing of the semiconductor chip can be carried out using a device such as a flip chip bonder or a die bonder. The layout and the number of arrangements of the semiconductor chips can be appropriately set according to the shape and size of the temporary fixing film, the number of semiconductor packages to be produced, etc. For example, the semiconductor chips may be aligned and temporarily fixed in a matrix pattern of multiple rows and multiple columns.

[0143] <Step (C)> Step (C) is a step of forming a sealing layer on a semiconductor chip. Any insulating material can be used for the sealing layer, and the photosensitive resin composition described above may also be used. The sealing layer is usually formed by a method including a step of forming a resin composition layer for sealing on the semiconductor chip and a step of thermally curing this resin composition layer to form the sealing layer.

[0144] The formation of the resin composition layer for sealing is preferably carried out by a compression molding method. In the compression molding method, usually, the semiconductor chip and the resin composition for sealing are placed in a mold, and pressure and, if necessary, heat are applied to the resin composition for sealing in the mold to form a resin composition layer for sealing covering the semiconductor chip.

[0145] The specific operation of the compression molding method can be, for example, as follows. As a mold for compression molding, an upper mold and a lower mold are prepared. Also, a resin composition for sealing is applied to the semiconductor chip temporarily fixed on the temporary fixing film as described above. The semiconductor chip coated with the resin composition for sealing is attached to the lower mold together with the base material and the temporary fixing film. Then, the upper mold and the lower mold are clamped, and heat and pressure are applied to the resin composition for sealing to perform compression molding.

[0146] Also, the specific operation of the compression molding method may be, for example, as follows. As a mold for compression molding, an upper mold and a lower mold are prepared. The resin composition for sealing is placed on the lower mold. Also, the semiconductor chip is attached to the upper mold together with the base material and the temporary fixing film. Then, the upper mold and the lower mold are clamped so that the resin composition for sealing placed on the lower mold contacts the semiconductor chip attached to the upper mold, and heat and pressure are applied to perform compression molding.

[0147] The molding conditions vary depending on the composition of the resin composition for sealing, and appropriate conditions can be adopted to achieve good sealing. For example, the temperature of the mold during molding is preferably a temperature at which the resin composition for sealing can exhibit excellent compression moldability, preferably 80°C or higher, more preferably 100°C or higher, particularly preferably 120°C or higher, and preferably 200°C or lower, more preferably 170°C or lower, particularly preferably 150°C or lower. Also, the pressure applied during molding is preferably 1 MPa or higher, more preferably 3 MPa or higher, particularly preferably 5 MPa or higher, and preferably 50 MPa or lower, more preferably 30 MPa or lower, particularly preferably 20 MPa or lower. The cure time is preferably 1 minute or longer, more preferably 2 minutes or longer, particularly preferably 5 minutes or longer, and preferably 60 minutes or shorter, more preferably 30 minutes or shorter, particularly preferably 20 minutes or shorter. Usually, after the formation of the resin composition layer for sealing, the mold is removed. The removal of the mold may be performed before or after the thermosetting of the resin composition layer for sealing.

[0148] The compression molding method may be performed by discharging the resin composition for sealing filled in the cartridge onto the lower mold.

[0149] <Step (D)> Step (D) is a step of peeling the substrate and the temporary fixing film from the semiconductor chip. It is desirable to adopt an appropriate method according to the material of the temporary fixing film. Examples of the peeling method include a method of peeling by heating, foaming, or expanding the temporary fixing film. Also, examples of the peeling method include a method of irradiating ultraviolet rays through the substrate onto the temporary fixing film to reduce the adhesive force of the temporary fixing film and then peeling it.

[0150] In the method of peeling by heating, foaming, or expanding the temporary fixing film, the heating conditions are usually 100°C to 250°C for 1 second to 90 seconds or 5 minutes to 15 minutes. Also, in the method of irradiating ultraviolet rays to reduce the adhesive force of the temporary fixing film and then peeling it, the irradiation amount of ultraviolet rays is usually 10 mJ / cm 2 ~1000 mJ / cm 2 is.

[0151] <Engineering (E)> Engineering (E) is a process of forming a redistribution layer as an insulating layer on the surface from which the base material of the semiconductor chip and the temporary fixing film have been peeled off. The redistribution layer uses the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention. The method of forming the redistribution layer is the same as the method of forming the photosensitive resin composition layer in process (I) of the first embodiment.

[0152] When forming the redistribution layer, in order to layer-connect the semiconductor chip and the redistribution layer, via holes may be formed in the redistribution layer.

[0153] Via holes can usually be formed by performing an exposure process of irradiating actinic light through a mask pattern on the surface of the photosensitive resin composition layer for forming the redistribution layer, and a development process of developing and removing the unexposed portions where the actinic light has not been irradiated. The irradiation amount and irradiation time of the actinic light can be appropriately set according to the photosensitive resin composition layer. Examples of the exposure method include a contact exposure method of bringing the mask pattern into close contact with the photosensitive resin composition layer for exposure, and a non-contact exposure method of using parallel light rays for exposure without bringing the mask pattern into close contact with the photosensitive resin composition layer. The actinic light, the alkaline aqueous solution, and the exposure and development method are as described above.

[0154] The shape of the via hole is not particularly limited, but is generally circular (substantially circular). The top diameter of the via hole is preferably 50 μm or less, more preferably 30 μm or less, still more preferably 20 μm or less, and preferably 0.1 μm or more, preferably 0.5 μm or more, more preferably 1.0 μm or more. Here, the top diameter of the via hole refers to the diameter of the opening of the via hole on the surface of the redistribution layer.

[0155] <Process (F)> Step (F) is a step of forming a rewiring layer as a conductor layer on a rewiring formation layer. The method of forming a rewiring layer on a rewiring formation layer may be the same as the method of forming a conductor layer on an insulating layer in the first embodiment. Further, steps (E) and (F) may be repeated to alternately stack (build up) the rewiring layer and the rewiring formation layer.

[0156] <Step (G)> Step (G) is a step of forming a solder resist layer on the rewiring layer. As the material of the solder resist layer, any insulating material can be used. Among them, a photosensitive resin and a thermosetting resin are preferable from the viewpoint of ease of manufacturing a semiconductor chip package. Further, the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention may be used.

[0157] Further, in step (G), bumping processing for forming bumps may be performed as necessary. The bumping processing can be performed by methods such as solder balls and solder plating. Further, the formation of via holes in the bumping processing can be performed in the same manner as in step (E).

[0158] The method for manufacturing a semiconductor chip package may include step (H) in addition to steps (A) to (G). Step (H) is a step of dicing a plurality of semiconductor chip packages into individual semiconductor chip packages and separating them. The method for dicing a semiconductor chip package into individual semiconductor chip packages is not particularly limited.

[0159] [Semiconductor Device] Examples of the semiconductor device in which the above-described semiconductor chip package is mounted include various semiconductor devices used in electrical products (for example, computers, mobile phones, smartphones, tablet devices, wearable devices, digital cameras, medical devices, and televisions, etc.) and vehicles (for example, motorcycles, automobiles, trains, ships, and airplanes, etc.).

[0161] <Synthesis Example 1: Synthesis of Polyimide Precursor A> 52.0 g of 2,2-bis[4-(3,4-dicarboxyphenoxy)phenyl]propane dianhydride (BPADA) was placed in a 2 L separable flask, 500 mL of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature. Further, 45.0 g of 5-(4-aminophenoxy)-3-[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1,3-trimethylindane (INDAN) was added, and at the same time, the reaction vessel was heated in an oil bath until the internal temperature reached 40 °C, and polymerization was carried out for 20 hours.

[0162] Next, 2.01 g of potassium hydride was added to the reaction solution and stirred at room temperature, 4.40 g of ethylene carbonate was added, and at the same time, the reaction vessel was heated in an oil bath until the internal temperature reached 80 °C, and stirring was carried out for 10 hours. The obtained reaction solution was cooled to 40 °C, 4.53 g of acryloyl chloride, 0.6 g of 4-dimethylaminopyridine, and 10.1 g of triethylamine were added, and stirring was carried out for 3 hours.

[0175] <Evaluation of residual film property (film thickness reduction during development)> Copper plating was laminated on a silicon wafer with a film thickness of 5 μm, and the photosensitive resin compositions formulated in the examples and comparative examples were applied onto a substrate that had been roughened with a 1% hydrochloric acid aqueous solution for 10 seconds at a rotational speed suitable for a film thickness of 15 μm using a spin coater, and then heated on a hot plate at 120 °C for 2 minutes to prepare a photosensitive resin composition layer. This is referred to as a laminate.

[0176] The prepared laminate was exposed to ultraviolet light (wavelength 365 nm, intensity 40 mW / cm 2 ). The exposure dose was set to the optimum value in the range from 50 mJ / cm 2 to 1000 mJ / cm 2 . A quartz glass mask for drawing a round hole (via) with an opening diameter of 20 μm was used as the exposure pattern.

[0177] Next, on the entire surface of the photosensitive resin composition layer of the laminate, spray development was performed with cyclopentanone as a developer at a spray pressure of 0.1 MPa for an optimal time between 20 seconds and 90 seconds, and then spray rinsing was performed with propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate at a spray pressure of 0.1 MPa for 30 seconds. Further, heat treatment was performed at 170 °C for 180 minutes to cure the photosensitive resin composition layer. The diameter of the bottom of the via was observed (magnification 1000 times) by SEM and measured, and the formation of vias with an opening diameter of 20 μm was confirmed.

[0178] The film thickness after development was measured, and the remaining film property was calculated as the film thickness residual ratio by the following calculation method and evaluated according to the following criteria. Film thickness residual ratio = Film thickness after development / Film thickness after coating (before exposure) × 100 (%) 〇: Film thickness residual ratio is 60% or more ×: Film thickness residual ratio is less than 60%

[0179] <Evaluation of dielectric constant and dielectric loss tangent> The photosensitive resin compositions prepared in the examples and comparative examples were coated on a peeled PET film (product name NS-80A: manufactured by Fujimori Kogyo Co., Ltd.) using a blade so that the film thickness became 140 μm. The solution on this PET film was heated at 80 °C for 10 minutes using a heating machine to obtain a photosensitive resin composition layer. The photosensitive resin composition layer was peeled from the PET film, and the photosensitive resin composition layer was attached to a metal frame using a heat-resistant tape and cured at 170 °C for 3 hours to prepare a photosensitive resin composition film for physical property measurement.

[0180] From the photosensitive resin composition film for physical property measurement, test pieces with a width of 2 mm and a length of 80 mm were cut out. For the cut test pieces, the dielectric loss tangent and dielectric constant were measured at a measurement frequency of 5.8 GHz and a measurement temperature of 23 °C by the cavity resonance perturbation method using a measuring device "HP8362B" manufactured by Agilent Technologies.

[0181]

Table 2

[0182] In Examples 1 to 4, cured products excellent in residual film properties and dielectric properties could be obtained. On the other hand, Comparative Examples 1 to 3 did not satisfy all of the residual film properties and dielectric properties. In addition, in Examples 1 to 4, even when the (E) component was not contained, although there was a difference in degree, it was confirmed that by increasing the exposure amount, the same results as those of the above examples could be achieved.
