Description

A solder resist ink resin for foldable multi-layer circuit board TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of polymer synthesis, and specifically relates to a solder resist ink resin for foldable multi-layer circuit board. BACKGROUND

[0002] PCB ink is an ink layer coated on a PCB, which can protect the circuit, and the core material composition is an organic polymer with certain viscosity, which is called PCB solder resist ink resin. In recent years, with the rapid development of mobile phones, notebooks and outdoor wearable electronic products, the requirements for the size and flexibility of PCBs carrying chips are becoming higher and higher. Traditional PCBs do not have flexibility, so based on this requirement, in addition to the good flexibility of PCBs, the ink used for PCBs also needs to have considerable flexibility, which puts forward new requirements for the core composition, i.e. high molecular polymer. In addition to the same excellent high temperature resistance and easy development performance as traditional PCB solder resist ink resin, it also needs to have flexibility to be applied in the coating process of PCB.

[0003] After searching, a Chinese invention patent: a PCB solder resist ink resin and a preparation method thereof (publication number CN113174030A, publication date 2021.07.27) discloses a PCB solder resist ink resin, which comprises the following components in percentage by mass: 10-25% of acrylic acid monomer, 25-40% of epoxy resin, 6-10% of organic acid, 5-20% of special intermediate, and 30-60% of solvent. The special intermediate is obtained by the following steps: dihydric alcohol is reacted with maleic anhydride or tetrahydrophthalic anhydride at 80 DEG C for 0.5-2 h, then the temperature is lowered to 45-60 DEG C, isocyanate is added, and the reaction is carried out for 1-3 h. The input amount of dihydric alcohol is 10-20% by mass, the input amount of maleic anhydride or tetrahydrophthalic anhydride is 20-30% by mass, and the input amount of isocyanate is 50-60% by mass. Although the application also uses a special monomer, the monomer in the scheme only increases the flexibility of the product, and does not well solve the high temperature resistance performance.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a PCB solder resist ink resin and a preparation method thereof which can improve flexibility while maintaining excellent high temperature resistance and easy development performance to solve the above technical problems. SUMMARY

[0052] The comparative example is the same as example 1 in terms of the ratio of raw materials and the synthesis route, except that the epoxy resin part is different.

[0059] The comparative example is the same as example 2 in terms of the synthesis route, except that the epoxy resin part is different, and the ratio of raw materials is different.

[0060] The high-temperature resistance, developing performance, and flexibility of examples 1 and 2 and comparative examples 1 and 2 are detected, and the detection results are shown in Table 1.

[0061] Table 1 Comparative data of product effects of examples 1 and 2 and comparative examples 1 and 2

[0062] The high-temperature resistance test method is as follows: the main resin is uniformly stirred with a fixed amount of active monomer, photoinitiator, epoxy resin, epoxy curing agent, and leveling agent, uniformly coated on a PCB copper foil, placed in an 80°C oven for 0.5 hours, then baked at 160°C for 2 hours, then placed in a 280°C tin furnace for 10 seconds, and taken out. After repeating three times, observe whether the copper foil surface cracks.

[0063] The developing time test method is as follows: the main resin is uniformly stirred with a fixed amount of active monomer, photoinitiator, epoxy resin, epoxy curing agent, and leveling agent, uniformly coated on a PCB copper foil, placed in an 80°C oven for 0.5 hours, then exposed by an exposure machine, then sprayed on the copper foil with 1% sodium carbonate aqueous solution under a pressure of 2 kg / cm 2 When the pattern on the copper foil is completely developed, the time is recorded.

[0064] The flexibility and bending resistance test method is as follows: fold the copper foil in half at 180 degrees, then unfold and flatten, repeat several times, and record the number of folds when the coating on the copper foil cracks.

[0065] As can be seen from the technical effects of the above examples and comparative examples, the PCB solder resist ink resin of the present application, when using a special epoxy resin as a raw material, compared to the commonly used commercially available epoxy resin, can ensure the performance of the ink resistant to high temperature, shorten the developing time, and greatly improve the flexibility and bending resistance. This is because the self-made epoxy resin intermediate used in the present application can undergo ring-opening reaction with acrylic monomer, and then react with tetrahydrophthalic anhydride or hexahydrophthalic anhydride. In the final product, the benzene ring in the self-made epoxy resin intermediate provides rigidity and high temperature resistance, and the long chain segment of the side chain provides flexibility and yellowing resistance. Therefore, the PCB solder resist ink resin prepared has better high temperature resistance and yellowing resistance.

[0066] The above examples only express some embodiments of the present application, which are described in detail and specifically, but should not be understood as limiting the scope of the present application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which are within the scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the appended claims.
