In this specification, when the positional relationship of each layer constituting a laminate is described as "above" or "below," it is sufficient that there are other layers above or below the reference layer among the multiple layers of interest. That is, a third layer or element may be interposed between the reference layer and the above-mentioned other layers, and the reference layer and the above-mentioned other layers do not need to be in contact. Unless otherwise specified, the direction in which layers are stacked on the substrate is referred to as "above," or, if there is a resin composition layer, the direction from the substrate to the resin composition layer is referred to as "above," and the opposite direction is referred to as "below." It should be noted that these vertical directions are for convenience within this specification, and in actual embodiments, the "up" direction in this specification may differ from vertically upward.
[0022] [Resin Composition] The resin composition of the present invention will be described in detail below. The resin composition of the present invention (hereinafter also simply referred to as "resin composition") is a resin composition comprising an organic pigment and a resin, wherein the water content of the organic pigment is 1.50% by mass or less, the content of the organic pigment is more than 10% by mass relative to the total solids in the resin composition, and the acid value of the resin is less than 50 mgKOH / g.
[0023] The reason why the resin composition having the above configuration can solve the problems of the present invention is not necessarily clear, but the inventors speculate as follows. It should be noted that the following speculation does not limit the mechanism by which the effect is obtained. In other words, even if the effect is obtained by a mechanism other than those described below, it is included within the scope of the present invention. The dielectric loss tangent is a numerical value that indicates the degree to which electrical energy is lost as thermal energy due to the vibration of the dipole moment of molecules within an object (dielectric) under the influence of an external electric field. Effective methods for lowering the dielectric loss tangent include, for example, the use of low-polarity or non-polar components, and the immobilization (rigidification) of dipoles within the object. However, despite the fact that organic pigments generally tend to be highly polar, the inventors have found that when using the organic pigment of the present invention with a water content of 1.50% by mass or less, a film with a lower dielectric loss tangent can be formed. Organic pigments with a water content within the above range are considered to have high crystallinity, with fewer highly polar areas or voids on the surface and inside that would easily retain moisture. It is presumed that, within the film, vibrations due to the influence of an external electric field are less likely to occur in each component, including the organic pigment and resin, and even if vibrations do occur, the range in which each component can move is narrow, thus reducing the dielectric loss tangent of the film. In addition, it is presumed that the acid value of the resin contained in the film is less than 50 mg KOH / g, and its low polarity also contributed to the reduction of the dielectric loss tangent of the film. Furthermore, since organic pigments tend to be highly polar, it is presumed that the interaction between organic pigments themselves, and between organic pigments and the resin, improved, resulting in a smaller coefficient of thermal expansion. Thus, the resin composition of the present invention can form a film exhibiting desired properties.
[0024] Hereinafter, as a characteristic of the resin composition of the present invention, a lower dielectric loss tangent of the film formed by the resin composition will be simply referred to as "lower dielectric loss tangent," a smaller coefficient of linear expansion of the film formed by the resin composition will be simply referred to as "smaller coefficient of linear expansion," and achieving at least one of a superior dielectric loss tangent and a superior coefficient of linear expansion will be referred to as "superior effect of the present invention."
[0025] [Organic Pigment] The resin composition of the present invention is characterized by containing an organic pigment (hereinafter also referred to as "specified organic pigment") having a water content of 1.50% by mass or less in an amount of more than 10% by mass relative to the total solid content of the resin composition.
[0026] The water content of an organic pigment is determined by measuring the amount of water contained in a sample obtained by heating and drying the organic pigment extracted from a resin composition under a nitrogen atmosphere, followed by humidity control treatment, using a Karl Fischer automatic moisture analyzer based on the vaporization method. The water content of an organic pigment is the ratio of the amount of water to the total mass of the organic pigment sample, and its unit is mass percent. Details of the method for measuring the water content of an organic pigment are described in the examples below.
[0027] The water content of the specified organic pigment is preferably 1.20% by mass or less, and more preferably 0.80% by mass or less, in that it allows for the formation of a film with a lower dielectric loss tangent. There is no particular lower limit to the water content of the specified organic pigment, but it is preferably 0.01% by mass or more, and more preferably 0.05% by mass or more, in that it provides a superior coefficient of linear expansion.
[0028] The water content of organic pigments can be adjusted by their chemical structure and degree of crystallinity. For example, organic pigments with a high degree of crystallinity tend to have a lower water content. Furthermore, organic pigments whose parameter Xp (described later) falls within a predetermined range tend to have an even lower water content.
[0029] Examples of organic pigments that can be used as specific organic pigments include diketopyrrolopyrrole pigments, azo pigments (monoazo pigments, bisazo pigments, and condensed azo pigments), phthalocyanine pigments, isoindoline pigments, quinacridone pigments, isoindolinone pigments, imidazolon pigments, benzimidazolone pigments, pyranthrone pigments, indanthron pigments, anthraquinone pigments, dioxazine pigments, benzofuranone pigments, perylene pigments, and azomethine pigments. Among these, at least one selected from the group consisting of azo pigments, diketopyrrolopyrrole pigments, phthalocyanine pigments, and isoindoline pigments is preferred in that it can form a film with a lower dielectric loss tangent, and at least one selected from the group consisting of azo pigments, diketopyrrolopyrrole pigments, and isoindoline pigments is more preferred in that it can form a film with a lower coefficient of thermal expansion. Furthermore, there are no particular restrictions on the color exhibited by the specified organic pigments, and red, yellow, blue, orange, purple, green, and black pigments can be used as appropriate.
[0030] As a specific organic pigment, in order to form a film with a smaller coefficient of linear expansion, it is preferable that Xp (hereinafter also referred to as "parameter Xp"), calculated from the following formula (X) based on the chemical structure of the organic pigment, be 0.25 or higher, more preferably 0.32 or higher, and even more preferably 0.40 or higher. Xp = (Nn + No + Ns + Ncl + Nh) / Nc (X) In formula (X), Nc, Nn, No, Ns, Ncl, and Nh represent the number of carbon atoms, nitrogen atoms, oxygen atoms, sulfur atoms, chlorine atoms, and hydrogen atoms bonded to heteroatoms, respectively, contained in the organic pigment. There is no particular upper limit to the parameter Xp. The parameter Xp may be, for example, 1.00 or less, and is preferably 0.80 or less in terms of superior dielectric loss tangent.
[0031] For example, in the organic pigment PR254 shown below, Nc = 18, Nn = 2, No = 2, Ns = 0, Ncl = 2, and Nh = 2. Substituting these into equation (X), Xp = 0.44 is calculated.
[0032]
[0033] The average particle size of the specific organic pigment is preferably 500 nm or less, more preferably 300 nm or less, even more preferably 150 nm or less, and preferably 5 nm or more, and more preferably 10 nm or more. The average particle size of the specific organic pigment is the value calculated by the following particle size measurement method. The resin composition is applied to a substrate (preferably a glass substrate) to form a composition layer. The thickness of the composition layer is preferably 3 μm or more. In addition, when forming the composition layer, a drying treatment may be performed as necessary after applying the resin composition. A cross section is cut along the normal direction of the surface of the obtained composition layer (the surface opposite to the substrate side), and a rectangular area of 3 μm × 10 μm of the cross section is observed with a scanning electron microscope, and the major axis of all particles (specific organic pigment) observed within the above area is measured. As a scanning electron microscope, for example, Hitachi High-Tech S-4800 is used. The magnification when observing is 50,000x. The above procedure is performed at five different locations in the composition layer, and the average value (arithmetic mean) of the major axes of all particles measured in each procedure is taken as the average particle diameter. The major axis refers to the length of the longest line segment connecting any two points on the outline of the particle's outer shape in the observation image. If particles aggregate to form an aggregate in the observation image, the major axis of each particle constituting the aggregate is measured.
[0034] The shape of the specific organic pigment may be either spherical or non-spherical (e.g., crushed or fibrous).

The bonding and smoothing treatment may be performed continuously using the commercially available vacuum laminator described above.
[0163] In step 1, when forming a composition layer using a transfer film having a cover film, it is preferable to perform step 1 after peeling the cover film from the transfer film. Also, when forming a composition layer using a transfer film in step 1, the temporary support may be removed between step 1 and step 2, or after step 2. The method for removing the temporary support is not particularly limited, and known methods can be applied. For example, a method for peeling off the temporary support may be used, and peeling may be performed by a roll-to-roll method. Details of the roll-to-roll method are as described above.
[0164] <Substrate> Examples of substrates include glass substrates, glass epoxy substrates, silicon substrates, and resin substrates, as well as substrates having a conductive layer, with substrates having a conductive layer being preferred. The substrate may be composed of a translucent substrate such as a glass substrate, or it may be tempered glass such as Corning's Gorilla Glass. Materials included in the above substrate include, for example, the materials described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2010-086684, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2010-152809, and Japanese Patent Publication No. 2010-257492. As for the resin substrate, a resin film with low optical distortion and / or high transparency is preferred. Specifically, examples include polyester, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate, polycarbonate, triacetylcellulose, cycloolefin polymer, liquid crystal polymer, and polyimide.
[0165] As the substrate having a conductive layer, a resin substrate having a conductive layer is preferred, and a resin film having a conductive layer is more preferred, as it can be manufactured by a roll-to-roll method. Furthermore, when employing a vacuum lamination method or the like, glass epoxy substrates, metal substrates, polyester substrates having a conductive layer, polyimide substrates having a conductive layer, BT resin substrates having a conductive layer, and thermosetting polyphenylene ether substrates having a conductive layer are also preferred. In addition, the substrate having a conductive layer may be a laminate obtained by a method for manufacturing a laminate including steps 1 and 2 described above. When the base material is a substrate having the conductive layer described above, it is preferable in step 1 to bond the transfer film and the substrate having a conductive layer so that the conductive layer and the composition layer are in contact. This produces a laminate in which the conductive layer and the cured film described later are in contact.
[0166] Examples of conductive layers include known conductive layers used in circuit wiring or touch panel wiring. From the viewpoint of conductivity and fine wire formation, the conductive layer is preferably one or more layers selected from the group consisting of a metal layer (e.g., metal foil), a conductive metal oxide layer, a graphene layer, a carbon nanotube layer, and a conductive polymer layer, with a metal layer being more preferred, a copper layer or silver layer being even more preferred, and a copper layer being particularly preferred. Furthermore, the conductive layer may consist of one or more layers. The conductive layer may be used alone or in combination of two or more types. Examples of materials for the conductive layer include elemental metals, alloys, and conductive metal oxides. Examples of elemental metals include Al, Zn, Cu, Fe, Ni, Cr, Mo, Ag, Au, Pd, Co, Ti, W, Sn, and In, with Cu, Cr, Ni, Ti, Al, Zn, Au, Pd, or Ag being preferred, and Cu being more preferred. Examples of alloys include alloys containing two or more of the metals listed above as elemental metals, with Ni-Cr alloys, Cu-Ni alloys, or Cu-Ti alloys being preferred. Examples of conductive metal oxides include ITO (Indium Tin Oxide), IZO (Indium Zinc Oxide), and SiO 2 Examples include: Conductivity is such that the volume resistivity is 1 × 10⁻⁶. 6 This means that the volume resistivity is less than Ωcm, and the volume resistivity is 1 × 10⁻⁶. 4It is preferable that the density is less than Ωcm.
[0167] The conductive layer may be patterned. Methods for manufacturing a patterned conductive layer include, for example, subtractive and additive methods such as etching. Etching methods include, for example, the wet etching method described in paragraphs 0048 to 0054 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2010-152155, and known dry etching methods such as plasma etching. The etching method may also involve the use of an etching resist.
[0168] The base material may be a component-embedded substrate that has components built into it.
[0169] [Step 2] Step 2 is the step of forming a pattern on the composition layer. The pattern may be formed only on the composition layer, or on both the composition layer and the substrate. Examples of methods for forming the pattern include drilling, laser processing, and plasma. When the composition layer is formed using a transfer film, the laser processing may be performed after peeling off the temporary support, or it may be performed through the temporary support before peeling off the temporary support.
[0170] Furthermore, if the composition layer is photosensitive, the method for forming the pattern preferably includes the steps of pattern exposure of the composition layer, developing the exposed composition layer with a developer to form the pattern, and etching the conductive layer in areas where the pattern is not present. More preferably, a step of curing the pattern is included between the pattern formation step and the etching step. The composition layer may be exposed from the side opposite to the substrate, or from the substrate side.
[0171] Examples of developers include alkaline developers and organic solvent developers. Examples of development methods include paddle development, shower development, spin development, and dip development, with a preferred development method being spraying the developer onto the exposed composition layer with a shower. Alternatively, after development, a cleaning agent may be sprayed with a shower and the development residue removed by scrubbing with a brush or the like. The developer temperature is preferably 20 to 40°C.
[0172] The light source used for exposure can be any light source that emits light in the wavelength range in which the various photosensitive components in the composition layer (e.g., specific compounds, polymerizable compounds, polymerization initiators, etc.) are photosensitive (e.g., light in the wavelength range of 254 nm, 313 nm, 365 nm, and 405 nm, etc.). Specifically, examples include ultra-high pressure mercury lamps, high-pressure mercury lamps, metal halide lamps, and LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes). The exposure dose is 5 to 1000 mJ / cm². 2 Preferably, 10 to 200 mJ / cm² 2 This is preferable.
[0173] When a composition layer is formed using a transfer film, exposure may be performed after peeling off the temporary support, or exposure may be performed through the temporary support before peeling off the temporary support and then peeling off the temporary support. It is preferable to perform pattern exposure without peeling off the temporary support in order to prevent mask contamination due to contact between the composition layer and the mask and to avoid the influence of foreign matter adhering to the mask on exposure. Pattern exposure may be performed through the mask or direct exposure using a laser or the like. Examples of masks include quartz masks, soda-lime glass masks, and film masks. Quartz masks are preferred because of their excellent dimensional accuracy, and film masks are preferred because they are easy to enlarge. As the material for the film mask, polyester film is preferred, and polyethylene terephthalate film is more preferred. An example of a film mask material is XPR-7S SG (manufactured by Fujifilm Global Graphic Systems Co., Ltd.).
[0174] The pattern formed in the composition layer may be a pattern having vias. The pattern having vias may be either through holes or via holes. The shape of the vias in the pattern may be, for example, a square, trapezoid, or inverted trapezoid as a cross-sectional shape; and a circular or square as a front shape (the shape when the via is observed from the direction in which the via is visible). An inverted trapezoid is preferred as a cross-sectional shape because it improves the adhesion of the plated copper to the via wall surface. The via size (diameter) is preferably 300 μm or less, more preferably 100 μm or less, even more preferably 50 μm or less, and particularly preferably 5 μm or less. The lower limit is preferably 1 μm or more. The number of vias may be 1 or 2 or more, and 2 or more is preferred.
[0175] [Step 3] Step 3 is a step of curing the patterned composition layer. Examples of curing treatments for curing the composition include heat treatment and exposure treatment. The curing treatment preferably includes at least heat treatment. Examples of heat treatments include the heat treatment described as a curing treatment in the above-mentioned method for manufacturing the film. Examples of exposure methods include the exposure method in Step 2.
[0176] [Other Processes] The method for manufacturing the pattern may include other processes in addition to the above processes. Other processes include, for example, a process of peeling off the cover film, a process of reducing the visible light reflectance, and an etching process. A known method is a known method for peeling off the cover film. A known method for reducing the visible light reflectance is, for example, the descriptions in paragraphs 0017 to 0025 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2014-150118 and paragraphs 0041, 0042, 0048 and 0058 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2013-206315, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. An example of an etching process is the wet etching method described in paragraphs 0048 to 0054 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2010-152155, and a known dry etching method such as plasma etching.
[0177] [Method for Manufacturing Semiconductor Packages] The pattern manufacturing method described above can be suitably applied as a method for manufacturing semiconductor packages. Examples of known manufacturing methods for semiconductor packages include methods for manufacturing build-up substrates. A preferred method for manufacturing semiconductor packages is one having the following steps Z1 to Z4. Step Z1: A step of forming a composition layer on a substrate using a resin composition. Step Z2: A step of forming a pattern having vias on the composition layer. Step Z3: A step of curing the composition layer on which the pattern has been formed. Step Z4: A step of forming a circuit pattern on the obtained pattern.
[0178] Furthermore, the pattern manufacturing method described above can be suitably applied as a method for manufacturing a laminate. A preferred method for manufacturing a laminate further includes, in addition to steps Z1 to Z4, step Z5, in which a composition layer is formed on the semiconductor package manufactured in step Z4 using a resin composition, and steps Z2 to Z5 are repeatedly performed.
[0179] The above steps Z1 to Z3 include steps 1 to 3 in the pattern manufacturing method, including preferred embodiments.
[0180] [Process Z4] Process Z4 is a process for forming a circuit pattern on the above pattern. As a method for forming the circuit pattern, a semi-additive process is preferred in that it can form fine wiring. The following methods are examples of semi-additive processes. In the semi-additive process, first, a seed layer is formed by electroless copper plating using a palladium catalyst or the like on the via bottom, via wall surface, and the entire surface of the pattern having vias. The above seed layer is for forming a power supply layer for electrolytic copper plating, and the thickness of the seed layer is preferably 0.1 to 2.0 μm. If the thickness of the above seed layer is 0.1 μm or more, it tends to suppress a decrease in connection reliability during electrolytic copper plating, and if the thickness of the above seed layer is 2.0 μm or less, it does not need to increase the amount of etching when flash etching the seed layer between wirings, and it tends to suppress damage to the wiring during etching. Electroless copper plating is performed by depositing metallic copper on the surface of the pattern having vias through the reaction of copper ions and a reducing agent. Examples of electroless plating methods and electrolytic plating methods include known plating methods. A palladium-tin mixed catalyst is preferred as the catalyst for electroless plating. The average primary particle size of the mixed catalyst is preferably 10 nm or less. Furthermore, the plating solution for electroless plating preferably contains hypophosphorous acid (reducing agent). Examples of electroless copper plating solutions include "MSK-DK" manufactured by Attec Japan Co., Ltd. and the "Surupap® PEA ver. 4" series manufactured by Uemura Kogyo Co., Ltd.
[0181] The method for manufacturing the laminate may include a roughening step in which a pattern having vias is roughened. The roughening step is preferably performed after step Z3 and before step Z4. By performing the roughening step, the surface of the pattern can be roughened to improve adhesion with circuit wiring. At the same time, smear can also be removed. Examples of roughening steps include known desmear treatments, and it is preferable to bring the pattern into contact with a roughening solution. Examples of roughening solutions include a roughening solution containing chromium and sulfuric acid, a roughening solution containing alkaline permanganate (e.g., sodium permanganate roughening solution), and a roughening solution containing sodium fluoride, chromium, and sulfuric acid.
[0182] The circuit pattern may be formed using metal foil. When forming the circuit pattern using metal foil, step Z4 may be performed between steps Z1 and Z2. For example, metal foil is laminated onto the surface of the composition layer, and then step Z2 is performed. Subsequently, the metal foil on the composition layer can be used to form the desired circuit pattern by conventional known techniques such as the subtractive method and the modified semi-additive method. As a method for laminating the composition layer and the metal foil, for example, a vacuum lamination method can be used. The lamination conditions can be those of the method using a transfer film in step 1 of the pattern manufacturing method.
[0183] It is preferable to perform heat treatment after circuit pattern formation in order to improve electrical insulation reliability, curing characteristics, and adhesion strength with plated copper. The heating temperature is preferably 150 to 240°C, and the heating time is preferably 15 to 500 minutes.
[0184] [Step Z5] Step Z5 is a step in which a composition layer is formed on the semiconductor package manufactured in Step Z4 using a transfer film. The method for forming the composition layer is the method in Step Z1 of the pattern manufacturing method, and the preferred embodiment is the same.
[0185] Steps Z2 to Z5 may be repeated according to the required number of layers. Furthermore, it is preferable to form a solder resist on the outermost layer of the resulting semiconductor package.
[0186] [Semiconductor Package] A semiconductor package having a film formed from a resin composition can be obtained by the semiconductor package manufacturing method described above. In the semiconductor package, the film formed from the resin composition may be used as an insulating film, or as an organic interposer or insulating film in a so-called build-up substrate.

The materials, amounts used, proportions, processing content, and processing procedures shown in the following examples can be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should not be interpreted as being limited by the following examples.

The laminate was heat-treated in an oven (200°C, 1.5 hours), and then the copper foil was removed by etching treatment, which involved immersion in an iron chloride aqueous solution (concentration 40% by mass) for 1 hour, to obtain a cured film derived from the composition layer.
[0213] [Measurements] The following measurements were performed on the resin composition and cured film of each example.
[0214] <Acid Value of Resins> From each example of resin composition, only the organic pigment was filtered off, and resin samples were taken. The obtained samples were accurately weighed into a 100 mL beaker, and 40 mL of a THF / water = 3 / 1 (volume ratio) mixture was added and stirred to dissolve. The obtained solution was measured using an automatic titrator under the following titration conditions (N=2). A blank test was performed in the same manner, and the acid value of each resin was calculated from the following formula: Acid value (KOH mg / g) = (F × f × (titration volume (mL) - blank (mL)) × 56.11) / (sample weighing value (g) × solid content concentration (%) / 100) In the formula, f represents the titrator factor of the NaOH solution used for titration, and F represents the concentration (mol / L) of the NaOH solution used for titration. <Titration Conditions> Apparatus: Automatic titrator Solvent: THF / H 2 Mixture of 0 = 3 / 1 (volume ratio), 40 mL; Number of measurements: N = 2; Data acquisition potential: 4 mV; Data acquisition titration volume: 50 μL; Titrate: 0.1 mol / L NaOH solution; Sample volume: 0.30 g
[0215] <Moisture Content of Organic Pigments> Organic pigments were filtered from the resin compositions of each example, and the obtained organic pigments were heated at 80°C for 1 hour under a nitrogen atmosphere and dried, and then dried again at 200°C for 1.5 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere. The obtained organic pigments were humidified for more than 10 hours under an environment of 25°C and 50% RH, and the moisture content of the organic pigments was measured using a Karl Fischer automatic moisture analyzer under the following measurement conditions based on the vaporization method.

The parameter Xp for each organic pigment is shown in the table below.
[0218] [Evaluation] The coefficient of linear expansion and dielectric loss tangent of the cured films prepared using the resin compositions of each example were evaluated by the following method.
[0219] <Dielectric Loss Tangent (Df)> The dielectric loss tangent of the fabricated cured film was measured using the resonance perturbation method at a frequency of 28 GHz. A 28 GHz cavity resonator (CP531, manufactured by Kanto Electronics Applied Development Co., Ltd.) was connected to a network analyzer (E8363B, manufactured by Agilent Technology). The measurement sample (the above-mentioned cured film) was inserted into the cavity resonator under conditions of 25°C and 50% RH humidity, and the dielectric loss tangent of the measurement sample was measured from the change in resonance frequency before and after insertion. Measurements were performed on three measurement samples, and the average value was taken as the dielectric loss tangent (Df) of the cured film for each example. The dielectric loss tangent was evaluated from the obtained values according to the following evaluation criteria.

[0225] The results shown in the table above confirm that the resin composition of the present invention can form a film with a low dielectric loss tangent and a small coefficient of thermal expansion.
[0226] It was confirmed that when the content of the specific organic pigment is 20% by mass or more relative to the total solid content of the resin composition, a film with a lower dielectric loss tangent and lower linear expansion can be formed (comparison of Examples 1 and 2, etc.). Furthermore, it was confirmed that when the content of the specific organic pigment is 50% by mass or more relative to the total solid content of the resin composition, a film with even lower linear expansion can be formed (comparison of Examples 4 and 5, etc.).
[0227] It was confirmed that a film with a lower dielectric loss tangent can be formed when the water content of the specific organic pigment is 1.20% by mass or less (comparison of Examples 11-12, etc.). Furthermore, it was confirmed that a film with an even lower dielectric loss tangent can be formed when the water content of the specific organic pigment is 0.80% by mass or less (comparison of Examples 3 and 6-11, etc.).
[0228] It was confirmed that when the parameter Xp calculated from formula (X) based on the chemical structure of a specific organic pigment is 0.32 or higher, a film with lower linear expansion can be formed (comparison of Examples 3 and 6-11, etc.).
[0229] It was confirmed that when the resin composition contains an organopolysiloxane resin having the unit represented by formula (T2) described above, it can form a film with a lower dielectric loss tangent compared to an organopolysiloxane resin that does not have the unit represented by formula (T2) described above (comparison of Examples 3, 13, 14, and 21). Furthermore, it was confirmed that when the resin composition contains an organopolysiloxane resin having the unit represented by formula (T1) described above with an NRh / NRc of 0.43 or more, it can form a film with a lower coefficient of linear expansion compared to an organopolysiloxane resin that does not have the unit represented by formula (T1) described above with an NRh / NRc of 0.43 or more (comparison of Examples 3, 13, 14, and 21).
[0230] [Semiconductor Package] A polyethylene terephthalate film with a thickness of 16 μm (Toray Industries, Inc., "16KS40") was prepared as a temporary support. The resin composition of each example was applied to the temporary support, and the coating was dried to produce a transfer film having the temporary support and a composition layer with a thickness of 30.0 μm. The transfer film of each example was laminated to both sides of a glass epoxy substrate (CCL-EL190T, 1.0 mm thick, Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company) on which a circuit pattern was formed, and the composition layer was formed on both sides of the glass epoxy substrate. Lamination was performed using a vacuum laminator manufactured by MCK Corporation under the following conditions: substrate temperature: 50°C, rubber roller temperature: 100°C, linear pressure: 3 N / cm, and transport speed: 2 m / min. After peeling off the temporary support, a pattern with vias of 80 μm in diameter was formed on the composition layer at predetermined positions by laser processing. After heat treatment (200°C, 1.5 hours), the residue was removed using an aqueous sodium permanganate solution as a roughening agent, and electroless plating was performed. Next, a resist pattern was formed at predetermined positions using a known dry film resist, electroplating was performed, and the resist pattern was peeled off with a stripping solution. Finally, after seed layer etching, copper wiring was formed on the insulating film formed by the composition layer by heat treatment (180°C, 1 hour). The above process from lamination to heat treatment was performed a total of three times, and finally, a solder resist was formed as the outermost layer. A semiconductor package was then fabricated by encapsulating and mounting semiconductor elements. A semiconductor package substrate was obtained by mounting the obtained semiconductor package at predetermined positions on a printed circuit board. It was confirmed that the obtained semiconductor package substrate was functioning correctly.
