R z X represents a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group. 2 R represents a trivalent group. 9 ~R 12Each of these independently represents a chlorine atom, an alkoxy group, an aryloxy group, an aralkyloxy group, or a hydroxyl group. 13 represents a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group.
[0067] The present invention provides a method for producing a polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor that suppresses impurities and reduces imidation. The mechanism by which the present invention achieves the above effects is not yet clear, but the inventors have the following hypothesis. However, the present invention is not limited in any way by the following hypothesis. As described above, a known method for synthesizing a polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor is to use thionyl chloride. When thionyl chloride is used in this way, acidic impurities containing sulfur atoms and highly polar by-products tend to be generated. The present invention provides a method for producing a polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor that, in step 1, uses a triazine chloride compound represented by the above general formula (1) and a tertiary amine, thereby reducing the sulfur atom content in the polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor.
[0068] Furthermore, as mentioned above, known methods for synthesizing polyimide precursors or polyamideimide precursors include a method using N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) and a method using 4-(4,6-dialkoxy-1,3,5-triazine-2-yl)-4-alkylmorpholinium halide. However, these methods require the addition of basic compounds under reaction conditions, which tends to increase the basicity under reaction conditions, and thus some of the resulting polyimide precursors or polyamideimide precursors tend to undergo unintended cyclization. The method for producing polyimide precursors or polyamideimide precursors of the present invention uses a triazine chloride compound represented by the above general formula (1), allowing the reaction to proceed without using an excess of basic compounds. This prevents an excessive increase in the basicity of the reaction system, thus suppressing unintended imidization.
[0069] The present invention provides a polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor, and a resin composition using the same, in which impurities are reduced and imidation is suppressed. When forming a coated film using the above-mentioned polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor composition (resin composition), the resin composition can be applied uniformly (excellent in-plane uniformity). As described above, the polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor obtained by the method for producing the polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor of the present invention has suppressed imidation. Generally, in the production of a polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor, if unintended imidation progresses, or if the so-called imidation rate is high, the number of imide rings with different polarities increases, which tends to worsen the compatibility with the constituent units of the polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor. In addition, aggregation of imide rings may occur, making it easy to form a physical gel, which is thought to result in poor coatability. However, in the polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor of the present invention, imidation is suppressed to a low level, so the resin composition can be applied uniformly, and excellent in-plane uniformity is considered to be achieved. Furthermore, when a film formed using a resin-containing composition (resin composition) is used in semiconductor devices, it is required to have the following excellent PCT characteristics. The Pressure Cooker Test (PCT) is a well-known test method for environmental reliability testing of electronic equipment. In such tests, it is required that the wiring does not corrode and that the resin film is less prone to abnormalities and foreign matter (also known as having excellent "PCT properties"). The polyimide precursor obtained by the method for producing the polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor of the present invention has reduced impurities (sulfur atoms), and therefore, when a film is formed using a resin composition containing the polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor, it is considered to have excellent PCT properties. When the polyimide precursor or polyamide-imide precursor obtained in this way is applied to a resin composition, it is considered that a film can be formed that has excellent in-plane uniformity in the coated film after application, as well as excellent PCT properties.
[0070] The steps included in the method for producing the polyimide precursor or polyamideimide precursor of the present invention will be described in detail below. [(A) A step in which an acid anhydride derivative and a triazine chloride compound represented by general formula (1) are reacted in the presence of a tertiary amine to produce a compound represented by general formula (2) or a compound represented by general formula (3) (hereinafter also referred to as "step 1" or "step (A)")]

For this reason, including epoxy compounds is effective in suppressing low-temperature curing and warping of resin compositions.
[0284] The epoxy compound preferably contains polyethylene oxide groups. This further reduces the modulus of elasticity and suppresses warping. A polyethylene oxide group refers to a group with two or more repeating units of ethylene oxide, and preferably has 2 to 15 repeating units.

[0350] By incorporating a surfactant into the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention, the liquid properties (especially the fluidity) of the prepared coating liquid composition are further improved, and the uniformity of the coating thickness and the liquid-saving properties can be further enhanced. Specifically, when forming a film using a coating liquid containing a surfactant, the interfacial tension between the surface to be coated and the coating liquid decreases, improving wettability to the surface to be coated and improving coatability to the surface to be coated. Therefore, it is possible to more favorably form a uniform film with less thickness variation.

The method for producing a cured product of the present invention preferably includes a membrane formation process in which the resin composition is applied to a substrate to form a film.
[0410] [Substrate] The type of substrate can be appropriately determined according to the application and is not particularly limited. Examples of substrates include semiconductor manufacturing substrates such as silicon, silicon nitride, polysilicon, silicon oxide, and amorphous silicon; quartz, glass, optical films, ceramic materials, vapor-deposited films, magnetic films, reflective films; metal substrates such as Ni, Cu, Cr, and Fe (for example, substrates formed from metal, and substrates in which a metal layer is formed by, for example, plating or vapor deposition); paper, SOG (Spin On Glass), TFT (thin film transistor) array substrates, molded substrates, and electrode plates for plasma display panels (PDPs). Semiconductor manufacturing substrates are particularly preferred, and silicon substrates, Cu substrates, and molded substrates are more preferred. These substrates may have layers such as an adhesion layer or an oxide layer made of hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) on their surface. The shape of the substrate is not particularly limited and may be circular or rectangular. If the substrate is circular, for example, a diameter of 100 to 450 mm is preferred, and 200 to 450 mm is more preferred. If it is rectangular, for example, the length of the shorter side is preferred to be 100 to 1000 mm, and 200 to 700 mm is more preferred.

[0411] When a resin composition is applied to the surface of a resin layer (for example, a layer made of cured material) or a metal layer to form a film, the resin layer or metal layer serves as the substrate.
[0412] Coating is a preferred method for applying the resin composition onto a substrate. Specific application methods include dip coating, air knife coating, curtain coating, wire bar coating, gravure coating, extrusion coating, spray coating, spin coating, slit coating, and inkjet coating. From the viewpoint of uniformity of film thickness, spin coating, slit coating, spray coating, or inkjet coating are preferred, and from the viewpoint of uniformity of film thickness and productivity, spin coating and slit coating are more preferred. By adjusting the solid content concentration of the resin composition and the coating conditions according to the application method, a film of the desired thickness can be obtained. Furthermore, the coating method can be appropriately selected depending on the shape of the substrate; for circular substrates such as wafers, spin coating, spray coating, and inkjet coating are preferred, while for rectangular substrates, slit coating, spray coating, and inkjet coating are preferred. In the case of spin coating, for example, it can be applied at a rotation speed of 500 to 3,500 rpm for about 10 seconds to 3 minutes.

That is, the method for manufacturing a cured product of the present invention may include a development process in which a pattern is formed by developing the film exposed in the exposure process with a developer. By developing, one of the exposed and unexposed parts of the film is removed, and a pattern is formed. Here, development in which the unexposed part of the film is removed by the development process is called negative development, and development in which the exposed part of the film is removed by the development process is called positive development.

[0425] Furthermore, examples of basic compounds and base generators include those described in paragraphs 0458-0462 of International Publication No. 2024 / 203918, those described in paragraphs 0308-0312 of International Publication No. 2024 / 071380, and those described in paragraphs 0278-0282 of International Publication No. 2023 / 190061. This information is incorporated herein by reference.
[0426] [Method of supplying developer] There are no particular restrictions on the method of supplying the developer as long as a desired pattern can be formed. These include immersing a substrate on which a film has been formed in the developer, paddle development in which the developer is supplied to the film formed on the substrate using a nozzle, or a method of continuously supplying the developer. There are no particular restrictions on the type of nozzle, and examples include straight nozzles, shower nozzles, spray nozzles, etc. From the viewpoint of developer penetration, removal of non-image areas, and manufacturing efficiency, a method of supplying the developer with a straight nozzle or a method of continuously supplying it with a spray nozzle is preferred, and from the viewpoint of developer penetration into the image area, a method of supplying with a spray nozzle is more preferred. In addition, a step may be adopted in which the developer is continuously supplied with a straight nozzle, the substrate is spun to remove the developer from the substrate, and after spin drying, the developer is supplied again with a straight nozzle, and the substrate is spun to remove the developer from the substrate. This step may be repeated multiple times. Examples of methods of supplying the developer in the development process include a step in which the developer is continuously supplied to the substrate, a step in which the developer is kept in a nearly stationary state on the substrate, a step in which the developer is vibrated on the substrate with ultrasound, etc., and a step that combines these.

[0429] [Rinsing Solution] If the developer is an alkaline aqueous solution, water can be used as the rinsing solution. If the developer contains an organic solvent, a solvent different from the solvent contained in the developer (for example, water, or an organic solvent different from the organic solvent contained in the developer) can be used as the rinsing solution.

[0436] [Method of supplying rinsing solution] There are no particular restrictions on the method of supplying the rinsing solution as long as a desired pattern can be formed. These include immersing the substrate in the rinsing solution, supplying the rinsing solution to the substrate by pouring the solution, supplying the rinsing solution to the substrate with a shower, and continuously supplying the rinsing solution onto the substrate using means such as a straight nozzle. From the viewpoint of the penetration of the rinsing solution, the removal of non-image areas, and manufacturing efficiency, there are methods of supplying the rinsing solution with a shower nozzle, a straight nozzle, a spray nozzle, etc., and the method of continuous supply with a spray nozzle is preferred, and from the viewpoint of the penetration of the rinsing solution into the image area, the method of supplying with a spray nozzle is more preferred. There are no particular restrictions on the type of nozzle, and examples include straight nozzles, shower nozzles, spray nozzles, etc. That is, the rinsing process is preferably a process of supplying the rinsing solution to the film after exposure using a straight nozzle or continuously supplying it, and it is more preferable to supply the rinsing solution using a spray nozzle. Possible methods for supplying the rinsing solution in the rinsing process include a process in which the rinsing solution is continuously supplied to the substrate, a process in which the rinsing solution is kept in a nearly stationary state on the substrate, a process in which the rinsing solution is vibrated on the substrate using ultrasound or the like, and a process that combines these methods.
[0437] The rinsing time is preferably 10 seconds to 10 minutes, and more preferably 20 seconds to 5 minutes. The temperature of the rinsing solution during rinsing is not particularly specified, but is preferably 10 to 45°C, and more preferably 18 to 30°C.
[0438] The developing process may include a step of bringing the processing solution into contact with the pattern after processing with the developer or after washing the pattern with the rinsing solution. Alternatively, methods such as supplying the processing solution before the developer or rinsing solution in contact with the pattern has completely dried may be employed.
[0439] Examples of the above-mentioned treatment solution include a treatment solution containing at least one of water and an organic solvent, and at least one of a basic compound and a base generating agent. Preferred embodiments of the organic solvent and at least one of the basic compound and base generating agent are the same as preferred embodiments of the organic solvent and at least one of the basic compound and base generating agent used in the rinse solution described above. The method of supplying the treatment solution to the pattern can be the same as the method of supplying the rinse solution described above, and the preferred embodiments are also the same.

When there are two or more types of basic compounds and base generators, it is preferable that their total is within the above range.
[0441] <Heating Step> The pattern obtained by the developing step (or the pattern after rinsing, if a rinsing step is performed) may be subjected to a heating step in which the pattern obtained by the developing step is heated. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a heating step in which the pattern obtained by the developing step is heated. Furthermore, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a heating step in which a pattern obtained by another method without performing a developing step, or a film obtained by a film formation step is heated. In the heating step, resins such as polyimide precursors are cyclized to become resins such as polyimide. In addition, crosslinking of unreacted crosslinkable groups in specific resins or crosslinking agents other than specific resins also proceeds. The heating temperature (maximum heating temperature) in the heating step is preferably 50 to 450°C, more preferably 150 to 350°C, even more preferably 150 to 250°C, even more preferably 160 to 250°C, and particularly preferably 160 to 230°C.
[0442] The heating step is preferably a step in which the heating promotes the cyclization reaction of the polyimide precursor within the pattern by the action of bases generated from the base generating agent.
[0443] In the heating process, heating is preferably carried out at a heating rate of 1 to 12°C / minute from the initial heating temperature to the maximum heating temperature. More preferably, the heating rate is 2 to 10°C / minute, and even more preferably 3 to 10°C / minute. By setting the heating rate to 1°C / minute or more, it is possible to prevent excessive volatilization of acid or solvent while ensuring productivity, and by setting the heating rate to 12°C / minute or less, it is possible to alleviate residual stress in the cured product. In addition, in the case of an oven capable of rapid heating, it is preferable to carry out heating at a heating rate of 1 to 8°C / second from the initial heating temperature to the maximum heating temperature, more preferably 2 to 7°C / second, and even more preferably 3 to 6°C / second.
[0444] The starting temperature for heating is preferably 20°C to 150°C, more preferably 20°C to 130°C, and even more preferably 25°C to 120°C. The starting temperature for heating refers to the temperature at which the process of heating to the maximum heating temperature is initiated. For example, when the resin composition of the present invention is applied to a substrate and then dried, this is the temperature of the film (layer) after drying, and it is preferable to start the heating process from a temperature 30 to 200°C lower than the boiling point of the solvent contained in the resin composition.
[0445] The heating time (heating time at the maximum heating temperature) is preferably 5 to 360 minutes, more preferably 10 to 300 minutes, and even more preferably 15 to 240 minutes.
[0446] In particular, when forming a multilayer laminate, from the viewpoint of interlayer adhesion, the heating temperature is preferably 30°C or higher, more preferably 80°C or higher, even more preferably 100°C or higher, and especially preferably 120°C or higher. The upper limit of the above heating temperature is preferably 350°C or lower, more preferably 250°C or lower, and even more preferably 240°C or lower.
[0447] Heating may be carried out in stages. For example, the process may involve raising the temperature from 25°C to 120°C at a rate of 3°C / min, holding at 120°C for 60 minutes, raising the temperature from 120°C to 180°C at a rate of 2°C / min, and holding at 180°C for 120 minutes. It is also preferable to treat while irradiating with ultraviolet light, as described in U.S. Patent No. 9,159,547. Such pretreatment steps can improve the properties of the film. The pretreatment step is preferably carried out for a short time of about 10 seconds to 2 hours, and more preferably for 15 seconds to 30 minutes. The pretreatment may consist of two or more steps; for example, the first pretreatment step may be carried out in the range of 100 to 150°C, followed by the second pretreatment step in the range of 150 to 200°C. Furthermore, cooling may be performed after heating, and in this case, the cooling rate is preferably 1 to 5°C / min.
[0448] The heating process is preferably carried out in a low-oxygen atmosphere, such as by flowing an inert gas like nitrogen, helium, or argon, or under reduced pressure, from the viewpoint of preventing the decomposition of specific resins. The oxygen concentration is preferably 50 ppm (by volume) or less, and more preferably 20 ppm (by volume) or less. The heating means in the heating process is not particularly limited, but examples include hot plates, infrared furnaces, electric ovens, hot air ovens, and infrared ovens.
[0449] <Post-development exposure step> The pattern obtained in the development step (or the pattern after rinsing, if a rinsing step is performed) may be subjected to a post-development exposure step in which the pattern after the development step is exposed, either in place of the heating step or in addition to the heating step. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a post-development exposure step in which the pattern obtained in the development step is exposed. The method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a heating step and a post-development exposure step, or it may include only one of the heating step and the post-development exposure step. In the post-development exposure step, for example, reactions such as the cyclization of polyimide precursors etc. by photosensitivity of a photobase generator, or the elimination of acid-degradable groups by photosensitivity of a photoacid generator can be promoted. In the post-development exposure step, it is sufficient for at least a part of the pattern obtained in the development step to be exposed, but it is preferable for the entire pattern to be exposed. The amount of exposure in the post-development exposure step is 50 to 20,000 mJ / cm in terms of exposure energy at the wavelength to which the photosensitive compound is sensitive. 2 Preferably, 100 to 15,000 mJ / cm² 2 This is more preferable. The post-development exposure step can be performed, for example, using the light source in the exposure step described above, and it is preferable to use broadband light.
[0450] <Metal Layer Formation Process> The pattern obtained by the development process (preferably one that has been subjected to at least one of the heating process and the post-development exposure process) may be subjected to a metal layer formation process in which a metal layer is formed on the pattern. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention preferably includes a metal layer formation process in which a metal layer is formed on the pattern obtained by the development process (preferably one that has been subjected to at least one of the heating process and the post-development exposure process).
[0451] The metal layer is not particularly limited, and existing metal species can be used, with examples including copper, aluminum, nickel, vanadium, titanium, chromium, cobalt, gold, tungsten, tin, silver, and alloys containing these metals, with copper and aluminum being more preferred, and copper being even more preferred.
[0452] The method for forming the metal layer is not particularly limited, and existing methods can be applied. For example, methods described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2007-157879, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2001-521288, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-214501, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-101850, U.S. Patent No. 7888181B2, and U.S. Patent No. 9177926B2 can be used. For example, photolithography, PVD (physical vapor deposition), CVD (chemical vapor deposition), lift-off, electroplating, electroless plating, etching, printing, and methods combining these can be considered. More specifically, patterning methods combining sputtering, photolithography and etching, and patterning methods combining photolithography and electroplating can be mentioned. Preferred embodiments of the plating include electroplating using copper sulfate or copper cyanide plating solutions.
[0453] The thickness of the metal layer is preferably 0.01 to 50 μm at the thickest part, and more preferably 1 to 10 μm.
[0454] The method for producing the cured product of the present invention may include a step of transferring the composition layer contained in the transfer film onto a substrate using the transfer film of the present invention, instead of the above-described <film formation step> and <drying step>. The substrate and transfer film are as described above.
[0455] The transfer can be carried out using a known laminator. Roll type, diaphragm type, press type, vacuum pressure type, etc., can be used. Examples of commercially available laminators include vacuum pressure laminators manufactured by Meiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd., vacuum applicators manufactured by Nikko Materials Co., Ltd., and batch type vacuum pressure laminators. Regarding the transfer method, the manufacturing methods described in paragraphs 0108 to 0111 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2022-39763, paragraphs 0023, 0036 to 0051 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2006-023696, and paragraphs 0096 to 0108 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2006-047592 can be suitably used.

Other applications include sealing films, substrate materials (base films and coverlays for flexible printed circuit boards, interlayer insulating films), or etching to form patterns on insulating films for the above-mentioned mounting applications. For more information on these applications, please refer to, for example, Science & Technology Co., Ltd., "High-Functionality and Application Technologies of Polyimides," April 2008, supervised by Masaaki Kakimoto; CMC Technical Library, "Fundamentals and Development of Polyimide Materials," November 2011; and the Japan Polyimide and Aromatic Polymer Research Association, ed., "Latest Polyimide Fundamentals and Applications," NTS, August 2010.
[0457] The method for manufacturing the cured product of the present invention, or the cured product of the present invention, can also be used for manufacturing printing plates such as offset plates or screen printing plates, for etching molded parts, and for manufacturing protective lacquers and dielectric layers in electronics, particularly microelectronics.
[0458] (Laminate and Method for Manufacturing a Laminate) The laminate of the present invention refers to a structure having multiple layers made of the cured product of the present invention. The laminate is a laminate containing two or more layers made of the cured product, and may be a laminate with three or more layers. Of the two or more layers made of the cured product included in the above laminate, at least one is made of the cured product of the present invention, and from the viewpoint of suppressing shrinkage of the cured product or deformation of the cured product due to the above shrinkage, it is also preferable that all the layers made of the cured product included in the above laminate are made of the cured product of the present invention.
[0459] In other words, the method for manufacturing the laminate of the present invention preferably includes a method for manufacturing the cured product of the present invention, and more preferably includes repeating the method for manufacturing the cured product of the present invention multiple times.
[0460] The laminate of the present invention preferably comprises two or more layers made of cured material, with a metal layer included between any of the layers made of cured material. The metal layer is preferably formed by the metal layer formation step described above. That is, the method for manufacturing the laminate of the present invention preferably further includes a metal layer formation step in which a metal layer is formed on the layers made of cured material, between multiple cured material manufacturing steps. The preferred embodiment of the metal layer formation step is as described above. As the laminate, for example, a laminate is preferred that includes at least three layers in which a first layer made of cured material, a metal layer, and a second layer made of cured material are laminated in this order. It is preferable that both the first layer made of cured material and the second layer made of cured material are layers made of cured material of the present invention. That is, the laminate of the present invention preferably comprises two or more layers made of cured material of the present invention, with a metal layer included between any of the layers made of cured material. The resin composition of the present invention used to form the first layer made of cured material and the resin composition of the present invention used to form the second layer made of cured material may have the same composition or may have different compositions. The metal layer in the laminate of the present invention is preferably used as a metal wiring such as a redistribution layer.
[0461] <Lamination Process> The method for manufacturing a laminate of the present invention preferably includes a lamination process. The lamination process is a series of steps that include performing, in this order, at least one of the following on the surface of a pattern (resin layer) or metal layer: (a) film formation process (layer formation process), (b) exposure process, (c) development process, (d) heating process, and post-development exposure process. However, the method may also involve repeating at least one of the following: (a) film formation process and (d) heating process and post-development exposure process. Furthermore, at least one of the following: (d) heating process and post-development exposure process may be followed by (e) metal layer formation process. Needless to say, the lamination process may further include the above-mentioned drying process and the like as appropriate.
[0462] If further lamination is performed after the lamination process, a surface activation treatment step may be performed after the exposure step, the heating step, or the metal layer formation step. Plasma treatment is an example of a surface activation treatment. Details of the surface activation treatment will be described later.
[0463] The above lamination process is preferably performed 2 to 20 times, and more preferably 2 to 9 times. For example, a configuration with 2 to 20 resin layers, such as resin layer / metal layer / resin layer / metal layer / resin layer / metal layer, is preferred, and a configuration with 2 to 9 resin layers is even more preferred. Each of the above layers may have the same composition, shape, film thickness, etc., or they may be different.
[0464] In the present invention, it is particularly preferable to form a cured product (resin layer) of the resin composition of the present invention so as to cover the metal layer after providing the metal layer. Specifically, examples include repeating the steps in the order of (a) film formation, (b) exposure, (c) development, (d) heating and post-development exposure, and (e) metal layer formation, or repeating the steps in the order of (a) film formation, (d) heating and post-development exposure, and (e) metal layer formation. By alternately performing the lamination step of stacking the resin composition layer (resin layer) of the present invention and the metal layer formation step, the resin composition layer (resin layer) and the metal layer of the present invention can be alternately stacked.
[0465] (Surface Activation Treatment Step) The manufacturing method of the laminate of the present invention preferably includes a surface activation treatment step in which at least a portion of the metal layer and the resin composition layer is surface activated. The surface activation treatment step is usually performed after the metal layer formation step, but after the development step (preferably after at least one of the heating step and the post-development exposure step), the surface activation treatment step may be performed on the resin composition layer before the metal layer formation step. The surface activation treatment may be performed only on at least a portion of the metal layer, or only on at least a portion of the resin composition layer after exposure, or on at least a portion of both the metal layer and the post-exposure resin composition layer. It is preferable to perform the surface activation treatment on at least a portion of the metal layer, and it is preferable to perform the surface activation treatment on a portion or all of the area on the surface of the metal layer where the resin composition layer is formed. By performing the surface activation treatment on the surface of the metal layer in this way, the adhesion to the resin composition layer (film) provided on its surface can be improved. It is also preferable to perform the surface activation treatment on a portion or all of the post-exposure resin composition layer (resin layer). By performing the surface activation treatment on the surface of the resin composition layer in this way, the adhesion to the metal layer and resin layer provided on the surface-activated surface can be improved. In particular, when developing negative film, if the resin composition layer is cured, it is less susceptible to damage from surface treatment and adhesion is easily improved. Surface activation treatment can be carried out, for example, by the method described in paragraph 0415 of International Publication No. 2021 / 112189. This is incorporated herein by reference.

The film thickness is set to a thickness of 10 μm for the resulting cured product. After that, a photomask for TEG substrate evaluation is placed on top and 400 mJ / cm² is applied. 2 Broadband light is irradiated. After exposure, development is performed using cyclopentanone, rinsed with PGMEA, and then treated with N in a Koyo Thermo Systems CLH-2 clean oven. 2 The reliability evaluation substrate is fabricated by heating it to 230°C for 180 minutes at a heating rate of 5°C / min under atmospheric conditions.
[0588] [PCT Test] In each example and comparative example, a PCT test will be performed using the above-mentioned reliability evaluation substrate with a Hirayama Seisakusho HAST apparatus PC-422R8D, under the conditions of 121°C, 100% RH (relative humidity), and 250 hours. After the test, the substrate will be observed with an optical microscope to visually check for the occurrence of foreign matter or wiring corrosion.

The film thickness of the coated surface is measured using a contact-type film thickness gauge (Decktack), and the in-plane uniformity is calculated as follows: In-plane uniformity = (Average film thickness) - (Measured film thickness that deviates most from the average)
[0590] In-plane uniformity is evaluated as follows:
[0591] A: Smaller than 0.25 μm B: 0.25 μm or larger but less than 0.5 μm C: 0.5 μm or larger but less than 0.75 μm D: 0.75 μm or larger

A transfer film is formed by drying at 120°C so that the composition layer thickness is 10 μm. A laminator is then applied to the surface of a Waltz TEG (test elementary group) substrate SIPOS-TEG SI06 to transfer the composition layer onto the substrate. A photomask for TEG substrate evaluation is then placed on top, and a pressure of 400 mJ / cm² is applied. 2 Broadband light is irradiated.

[0600] [PCT Test] In each example and comparative example, a PCT test will be performed using the above-mentioned reliability evaluation substrate with a Hirayama Seisakusho HAST apparatus PC-422R8D, under the conditions of 121°C, 100% RH (relative humidity), and 250 hours. After the test, the substrate will be observed with an optical microscope to visually check for the occurrence of foreign matter or wiring corrosion.
[0601] [Method for Evaluating the Coated Surface (In-Plane Uniformity)] The resin composition prepared in each example and comparative example, as well as the comparative composition, are applied to the surface of an 8-inch silicon substrate by spin coating and dried at 100°C for 300 seconds. The film thickness is set to a thickness of 10 μm for the resulting cured product (coated film). The film thickness of the coated surface is measured using a contact-type film thickness gauge (Decktack), and the in-plane uniformity is calculated as follows: In-plane uniformity = (Average film thickness) - (Measured film thickness that deviates most from the average)
[0602] In-plane uniformity is evaluated as follows:
[0603] A: Smaller than 0.25 μm B: 0.25 μm or larger but less than 0.5 μm C: 0.5 μm or larger but less than 0.75 μm D: 0.75 μm or larger

(GC Measurement Sample Preparation) The resin composition is applied to the support film. It is dried at 120°C to form a transfer film having the composition layer on the support film. 0.10 g of the composition layer from the formed transfer film is scraped off into a sample bottle, dissolved in THF (4.9 g), and the liquid filtered through a Teflon filter is subjected to GC measurement. (GC Conditions) The amide solvent is quantified by measurement under the following conditions.
[0605]
[0606] Furthermore, an amide solvent / THF solution containing 10 ppm of the amide solvent was prepared, and the results of GC measurement under the above conditions were used as a single calibration curve. The amide solvents used were N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), N,N-diethylformamide (DEF), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), N-ethylpyrrolidone (NEP), 1,3-dimethylimidazolidinone (DMI), 3-methoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide, and 3-butoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide. The quantitative value is the sum of the contents of the above amide solvents.
[0607] In the composition layers using the resin compositions of Examples 31 and 32, no amide solvent was detected. Therefore, the amide solvent content in precursor A-4 and precursor A-5 were both 100 ppm or less.
[0608] From the above results, it can be seen that the embodiments of the present invention provide a method for producing a polyimide precursor in which the generation of impurities and imidization are suppressed. Furthermore, it can be seen that when the polyimide precursor obtained by the method for producing a polyimide precursor of the present invention is applied to a resin composition, it is possible to form a film that has excellent in-plane uniformity of the coated film after application and also has excellent PCT properties.
