Description
Curable resin composition, adhesive, sealing material, cured product, semiconductor device and electronic component
[0001] The present invention relates to a curable resin composition, an adhesive or a sealing material comprising the same, a cured product thereof, and a semiconductor device and an electronic component comprising the cured product.
[0002] Photo- and / or thermosetting adhesives are used in many fields (for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2), and are also used, for example, in the manufacture of optical sensor modules. Optical sensor modules are used as camera modules for mobile phones and smartphones. Adhesives used in the manufacture of optical sensor modules are used, for example, in the step of aligning optical axes such as adhesion between the sensor part and the lens part of an optical sensor module, and high curability is required.
[0003] As an adhesive that achieves high curability, curable resin compositions containing an acrylic resin and a thiol compound are known. For example, Patent Document 3 discloses a photo- and heat-curable resin composition having a sufficiently long pot life, which is characterized by containing (A) an acrylic resin, (B) a thiol compound, (C) a latent curing agent, (D) a radical polymerization inhibitor, and (E) an anionic polymerization inhibitor.
[0004] Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2009-51954, International Publication No. WO 2005 / 052021, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2014-077024
[0005] From the viewpoint of the reliability of semiconductor devices and electronic components, the cured product of the curable resin composition used in assembly and mounting is required to have high adhesive strength to an adherend.
[0006] Engineering plastics have superior strength and heat resistance compared to general-purpose plastics, are lighter than metals, and are materials that facilitate mass production of the same shape by injection molding or the like, so they are widely used as components for semiconductor devices and electronic components. On the other hand, due to the high crystallinity of engineering plastics and their lower surface energy than metals, resulting in poor wettability with resin compositions, they are classified as difficult-to-adhere materials. There is a need for an adhesive or a sealing material that exhibits excellent adhesive strength to such difficult-to-adhere engineering plastics.
[0007] It has been found that while curable resin compositions containing acrylic resin and thiol compounds exhibit excellent low-temperature curing properties, the adhesive strength of the cured product to engineering plastics as the adherend may be insufficient after thermal curing.
[0008] The object of this invention is to provide a resin composition that can provide a cured product with excellent adhesive strength to engineering plastics in thermosetting, an adhesive or sealant containing the same, a cured product thereof, and a semiconductor device and electronic component containing the cured product thereof.
[0009] The specific means for solving the above problems are as follows. The embodiments of the present invention include the following curable resin compositions, adhesives or encapsulants, cured products, semiconductor devices or electronic components. [1] A curable resin composition comprising (A) a (meth)acrylate compound, (B) a polythiol compound, (C) an allyl compound, and (D) a polymerization initiator, wherein the proportion of compounds having heterocyclic and / or aromatic rings among the (B) polythiol compound and the (C) allyl compound is 5% by mass or more. [2] The curable resin composition according to [1], wherein the thiol equivalent of the (B) polythiol compound is 50 to 1000 g / eq. [3] The curable resin composition according to [1] or [2], wherein the allyl equivalent of the (C) allyl compound is 50 to 1000 g / eq. [4] The curable resin composition according to any one of [1] to [3], wherein the (C) allyl compound includes an allyl compound having a hydroxyl group. [5] The curable resin composition according to [4], wherein the hydroxyl group is a phenolic hydroxyl group. [6] The curable resin composition according to any one of [1] to [5], wherein the compound having a heterocyclic and / or aromatic ring in (B) a polythiol compound and / or (C) an allyl compound is a compound having a bisphenol skeleton, a glycoluryl skeleton, or an isocyanuric acid skeleton. [7] An adhesive or sealant comprising the curable resin composition according to any one of [1] to [6]. [8] The adhesive or sealant according to [7], used for fixing, bonding, or protecting components constituting an optical sensor module. [9] A cured product obtained by curing the curable resin composition according to any one of [1] to [6], or the adhesive or sealant according to [7] or [8].
[10] A semiconductor device or electronic component comprising the cured product according to [9].
[11] The semiconductor device or electronic component according to
[10] , which is an optical sensor module.
[0010] According to aspects of the present invention, a curable resin composition capable of providing a cured product with excellent adhesive strength to engineering plastics in thermosetting, an adhesive or encapsulant containing the same, the cured product thereof, and a semiconductor device and electronic component containing the cured product are provided. Furthermore, the curable resin composition and the adhesive or encapsulant containing the same of the present invention have the effect of good dispensability.
[0011] In this specification, following convention in the field of synthetic resins, the term "resin," which usually refers to a polymer (especially a synthetic polymer), may be used to describe components constituting a curable resin composition before curing, even if the component is not a polymer, for example, a prepolymer compound before curing. Conversely, even if the component is a polymer, the term "compound" may be used, focusing on the functional group. In this specification, "(meth)acryloyl group" refers to both methacryloyl and acryloyl groups. Also, "(meth)acrylate compound" refers to both acrylate and methacrylate compounds. Furthermore, in this specification, "curable resin composition" may simply be referred to as "resin composition." In this specification, numerical ranges indicated using "~" include the numbers before and after "~" as the minimum and maximum values, respectively. In numerical ranges described stepwise in this specification, the upper or lower limit of one numerical range may be replaced by the upper or lower limit of another numerical range described stepwise. Furthermore, in the numerical ranges described herein, the upper or lower limits of those ranges may be replaced with the values shown in the examples. In this specification, each component may contain multiple types of the corresponding substance. If multiple types of the substance corresponding to each component are present in the composition, the content or amount of each component means the total content or amount of the multiple types of substances present in the composition, unless otherwise specified.

Examples of allyl compounds include monofunctional allyl compounds having one allyl group, and polyfunctional allyl compounds having two or more allyl groups. Polyfunctional allyl compounds having two or more allyl groups are preferred, allyl compounds having two to six allyl groups are more preferred, and allyl compounds having two to four allyl groups are even more preferred. The allyl group of an allyl compound can undergo a radical addition reaction (en-thiol reaction) with the thiol group of a polythiol compound under radical polymerization conditions. Allyl compounds can be broadly classified into allyl compounds having an aromatic ring skeleton, allyl compounds having a heterocyclic skeleton, and aliphatic allyl compounds, depending on the type of skeleton.
[0026] Examples of allyl compounds having an aromatic ring skeleton include, but are not limited to, diallyl terephthalate ether, diallyl isophthalate ether, triallyl trimellitate ether, tetraallyl pyromellitate ether, diallyl biphenyl-2,2'-dicarboxylic acid ether, allyl compounds having a bisphenol skeleton (e.g., bisphenol A bisallyl ether, bisphenol C bisallyl ether), allylphenol compounds having a bisphenol skeleton (e.g., 2,2'-diallylbisphenol A, 2,2'-diallylbisphenol C), and other allylphenol compounds (e.g., allylphenol compounds described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2019-052258). Examples of commercially available allylphenol compounds include, but are not limited to, diallylbisphenol A (e.g., BPA-CA manufactured by Konishi Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., DABPA manufactured by Yamato Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., and DA-BPA manufactured by Yokkaichi Synthetic Co., Ltd.), diallylbisphenol F (e.g., MEH-8000H and MEH-8005 manufactured by UBE Corporation), biphenylene resin (SBA series manufactured by Gun-ei Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), allylphenol resin (APG series manufactured by Gun-ei Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), allylphenol resin (LVA series manufactured by Gun-ei Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), propenylated biphenylene resin (BPN series manufactured by Gun-ei Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), allyl etherphenol resin (FTC-AE series manufactured by Gun-ei Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), and polyfunctional allylphenol resin (FATC series manufactured by Gun-ei Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.).
[0027] Examples of allyl compounds having a heterocyclic skeleton include, but are not limited to, trialyl cyanurate, allyl cyanurate derivatives (e.g., MA-DGIC, DAMGIC, MeDAIC, L-DAIC, DD-1 from Shikoku Chemicals, Inc.), allyl compounds having an isocyanuric acid skeleton such as trialyl isocyanurate (e.g., TAIC from Shinryo Co., Ltd.), and allyl compounds having a glycoluryl skeleton such as 1,3,4,6-tetraallyl glycoluryl (TA-G from Shikoku Chemicals, Inc.).
[0028] Examples of aliphatic allyl compounds include, but are not limited to, glycerol monoallyl ether, allyl glycidyl ether, allyl hydroxyacetate, allyl hydroxypropanoate, allyl hydroxyhexanoate, 4-hydroxycyclohexylacetate, trimethylolpropanediallyl ether, pentaerythritol triallyl ether, pentaerythritol tetraallyl ether, and (meth)acrylates having an allyloxymethyl group.
[0029] (C) The allyl equivalent of the allyl compound is preferably 50 to 1000 g / eq, more preferably 50 to 800 g / eq, even more preferably 50 to 600 g / eq, and particularly preferably 50 to 300 g / eq.
[0030] From the viewpoint of further improving the adhesive strength to engineering plastics, the (C) allyl compound is preferably an allyl compound having an aromatic ring skeleton or an allyl compound having a heterocyclic skeleton, more preferably an allyl compound having an aromatic ring skeleton, and even more preferably an allyl compound having a bisphenol skeleton.
[0031] From the viewpoint of further improving the adhesive strength to engineering plastics, the (C) allyl compound preferably contains an allyl compound having a hydroxyl group, and more preferably contains an allyl compound having two or more hydroxyl groups. In particular, when the hydroxyl groups are phenolic hydroxyl groups, this is preferable because it further improves the adhesive strength to engineering plastics. In one embodiment, the (C) allyl compound contains an allyl compound having two or more phenolic hydroxyl groups. Under anionic polymerization conditions, the hydroxyl groups in the allyl compound react with epoxy groups (if present) and are incorporated into molecular crosslinking, thereby improving the adhesive strength to the adherend. In particular, when the hydroxyl groups in the allyl compound are phenolic hydroxyl groups, the reactivity under anionic polymerization conditions is high, and it is thought that the adhesive strength to the adherend is further improved. Furthermore, when epoxy groups are absent or under radical polymerization conditions, the hydroxyl groups in the allyl compound do not contribute to the crosslinking reaction, but because they are in a free state, they can form hydrogen bonds with the adherend, thereby improving the adhesive strength to the adherend.
[0032] In this embodiment, the content of the (C) allyl compound in the resin composition is preferably 0.5 to 30% by mass, more preferably 1 to 25% by mass, and even more preferably 1 to 20% by mass, based on the total mass of the resin composition. Alternatively, the content of the (C) allyl compound in the resin composition is preferably 1 to 30% by mass, more preferably 2 to 25% by mass, based on the total mass of the (A) (meth)acrylate compound and the (B) polythiol compound. Alternatively, the content of the (C) allyl compound in the resin composition is preferably 1 to 70% by mass, more preferably 3 to 60% by mass, and even more preferably 5 to 50% by mass, based on the total mass of the (B) polythiol compound.
[0033] In the curable resin composition of this embodiment, the proportion of compounds having heterocyclic and / or aromatic rings among (B) polythiol compounds and (C) allyl compounds is 5% by mass or more, for example, 6% by mass or more, and for example, 8% by mass. This provides a resin composition that can give a cured product with excellent adhesive strength to engineering plastics when heat-cured. In one embodiment, the proportion of compounds having heterocyclic and / or aromatic rings among (B) polythiol compounds and (C) allyl compounds is 100% by mass or less, for example, 95% by mass or less, and for example, 90% by mass or less. Engineering plastics are classified as difficult-to-adhere materials due to their high crystallinity, lower surface energy than metals, and poor wettability with resin compositions. Curable resin compositions containing acrylic resin and thiol compounds exhibit excellent low-temperature curing properties, but it has been found that the adhesive strength of the cured product to engineering plastics as the adherend after heat curing may be insufficient. This tendency was particularly observed when an aliphatic thiol compound was selected as the thiol compound considering the elastic modulus of the cured product. As a result of diligent research, it was found that this problem can be solved by including allyl compounds and ensuring that the proportion of compounds having heterocyclic and / or aromatic rings among the polythiol and allyl compounds exceeds a specific value. For example, if the thiol compound contains only aliphatic thiol compounds, it is sufficient to include 5% by mass or more of allyl compounds having heterocyclic and / or aromatic rings relative to the total amount of (B) polythiol compounds and (C) allyl compounds. Including a large amount of compounds having heterocyclic and / or aromatic rings may worsen the dispensability of the resin composition, but when (B) polythiol compounds and / or (C) allyl compounds have heterocyclic and / or aromatic rings, it was effective in that the dispensability of the resulting resin composition remained good while the adhesive strength to engineering plastics was improved. Preferably, the compounds having heterocyclic and / or aromatic rings in (B) polythiol compounds and / or (C) allyl compounds are compounds having a bisphenol skeleton, a glycoluryl skeleton, or an isocyanuric acid skeleton.
[0034] In the curable resin composition of this embodiment, the ratio of the number of thiol group equivalents of component (B) to the sum of the number of (meth)acryloyl group equivalents of component (A) and the number of allyl group equivalents of component (C) ([number of thiol group equivalents of component (B)] / ([number of (meth)acryloyl group equivalents of component (A)] + [number of allyl group equivalents of component (C)])) is preferably 0.1 to 10, more preferably 0.2 to 5, and even more preferably 0.5 to 3. In this specification, functional group equivalents such as thiol equivalents, (meth)acryloyl equivalents, and allyl equivalents represent the molecular weight of the compound per functional group, and functional group equivalent numbers such as the number of thiol group equivalents, (meth)acryloyl group equivalents, and allyl group equivalents represent the number of functional groups (equivalents) (moles) per unit mass (amount charged) of compound. (B) The thiol equivalent of a polythiol compound is theoretically equal to the molecular weight of the polythiol compound divided by the number of thiol groups in one molecule. The actual thiol equivalent can be determined, for example, by determining the thiol value by potentiometric measurement. This method is widely known and is disclosed, for example, in paragraph 0079 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2012-153794. The number of thiol group equivalents of component (B) is the number of thiol groups (equivalents) (moles) per mass (amount charged) of component (B), and is the quotient obtained by dividing the mass (g) of the polythiol compound (B) by the thiol equivalent of that polythiol compound (if multiple polythiol compounds are included, it is the sum of such quotients for each polythiol compound). (A) The (meth)acryloyl equivalent of a (meth)acrylate compound is theoretically equal to the molecular weight of the (meth)acrylate compound divided by the number of acryloyl groups (or methacryloyl groups) in one molecule. The actual (meth)acryloyl equivalent can be measured, for example, by NMR. The number of (meth)acryloyl group equivalents of component (A) is the number of (meth)acryloyl groups (equivalents) (moles) per unit mass (amount charged) of component (A), and is the quotient obtained by dividing the mass (g) of the (meth)acrylate compound by the (meth)acryloyl equivalent of that (meth)acrylate compound (if multiple (meth)acrylate compounds are included, it is the sum of such quotients for each (meth)acrylate compound).(C) The allyl equivalent of an allyl compound is theoretically equal to the molecular weight of the allyl compound divided by the number of allyl groups in one molecule. The actual allyl equivalent can be measured, for example, by NMR. The number of allyl group equivalents of component (C) is the number of allyl groups (equivalents) (moles) per unit mass (amount charged) of component (C), and is the quotient obtained by dividing the mass (g) of the allyl compound by the allyl equivalent of that allyl compound (if multiple allyl compounds are included, it is the sum of such quotients for each allyl compound). Setting [Number of thiol group equivalents of component (B)] / ([Number of (meth)acryloyl group equivalents of component (A)] + [Number of allyl group equivalents of component (C)]) within the above range allows for sufficient molecular crosslinking to be formed, thereby facilitating the development of high adhesive strength, as the (meth)acryloyl groups and allyl groups react with thiol groups in amounts greater than a certain amount.
[0035] The curable resin composition of this embodiment may contain polymerizable compounds other than (A) (meth)acrylate compounds, (B) polythiol compounds, and (C) allyl compounds, but the total mass of (A) (meth)acrylate compounds, (B) polythiol compounds, and (C) allyl compounds is preferably 60 to 100% by mass, more preferably 70 to 100% by mass, and even more preferably 80 to 100% by mass, relative to the total mass of all polymerizable compounds in the curable resin composition. Examples of other polymerizable compounds include epoxy compounds.
[0036] (D) Polymerization initiator The curable resin composition of this embodiment contains (D) a polymerization initiator (hereinafter also referred to as "component (D)").

(E) The radical polymerization inhibitor is added to improve the stability of the resin composition during storage and to suppress the occurrence of unintended radical polymerization reactions. (Meth)acrylate compounds may generate radicals on their own with a low probability, and unintended radical polymerization reactions may occur starting from these radicals. By adding a radical polymerization inhibitor, the occurrence of such unintended radical polymerization reactions can be suppressed.
[0067] Known radical polymerization inhibitors can be used, for example, at least one selected from N-nitroso-N-phenylhydroxylamine aluminum, triphenylphosphine, p-methoxyphenol, and hydroquinone.

One or more inorganic fillers may be used, or two or more may be used in combination. As an inorganic filler, silica filler is preferred because it allows for a high filling amount. Amorphous silica is preferred. The surface of the inorganic filler may be surface-treated with a coupling agent such as a silane coupling agent.
[0072] Examples of organic fillers include polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fillers, silicone fillers, acrylic fillers, fillers with a urethane skeleton, fillers with a butadiene skeleton, and styrene fillers. Organic fillers may be surface-treated.

[0074] The average particle size of the filler is preferably 6.0 μm or less, more preferably 5.0 μm or less, and even more preferably 4.0 μm or less. In this specification, unless otherwise specified, the average particle size refers to the volume-based median diameter (d) measured by laser diffraction in accordance with ISO-13320 (2009). 50 This refers to the filler. By keeping the average particle size of the filler below the upper limit, the settling of the filler can be suppressed, and the formation of coarse particles can be suppressed, thereby suppressing wear of the jet dispenser nozzle and the scattering of the curable resin composition discharged from the jet dispenser nozzle outside the desired area. The lower limit of the average particle size of the filler is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of the viscosity of the curable resin composition, it is preferably 0.005 μm or more, and more preferably 0.1 μm or more. Fillers with different average particle sizes may be used in combination. When a filler is included, the filler content is preferably 0.5 to 50% by mass, and more preferably 1 to 40% by mass, based on the total mass of the resin composition.
[0075] • Swixer Examples of swixers include silica such as colloidal silica, hydrophobic silica, fine silica, and nanosilica, as well as bentonite, acetylene black, and Ketjenblack. Nanosilica is preferred from the viewpoint of maintaining shape after coating. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of preventing the resin composition from getting stuck during bonding and improving moisture resistance and adhesion, nanosilica with an average particle size of 10 to 750 nm is more preferred, and nanosilica with an average particle size of 20 to 600 nm is even more preferred. Commercially available products include, but are not limited to, hydrophobic fumed silica manufactured by CABOT (product name: CAB-O-SIL® TS720, average particle size: 12 nm), hydrophobic fumed silica manufactured by Nippon Aerosil (product name: AEROSIL® R805, average particle size: 12 nm), and amorphous silica manufactured by Nippon Shokubai (product name: Seahostar KE-P10, average particle size: 100 nm).

[0077] Examples of coupling agents include, but are not limited to, silane coupling agents, aluminum coupling agents, and titanium coupling agents, depending on the type of functional group that chemically bonds with the inorganic material.
[0078] Examples of coupling agents include, but are not limited to, various types of coupling agents such as epoxy, amino, vinyl, methacrylic, acrylic, and mercapto-based coupling agents, depending on the type of functional group that chemically bonds with the organic material.
[0079] The coupling agent may be any one type, or two or more types may be used in combination.
[0080] When a coupling agent is added, the amount of the coupling agent added is preferably 0.01 to 10 parts by mass, and more preferably 0.1 to 5 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the resin composition, from the viewpoint of improving adhesive strength.

[0083] • Radical polymerization inhibitors (meth)acrylate compounds may generate radicals on their own with a low probability, and unintended radical polymerization reactions may occur starting from these radicals. By adding a radical polymerization inhibitor, the occurrence of such unintended radical polymerization reactions can be suppressed. Note that products of polymerizable compounds such as (meth)acrylate compounds may contain radical polymerization inhibitors. The radical polymerization inhibitor that may be included in the resin composition of this embodiment may be a radical polymerization inhibitor that was included in the compounding materials of the resin composition, a radical polymerization inhibitor that was added independently to the resin composition, or a combination thereof. Known radical polymerization inhibitors can be used, for example, at least one selected from N-nitroso-N-phenylhydroxylamine aluminum, triphenylphosphine, p-methoxyphenol, and hydroquinone can be used.

[0087] Adhesives or sealants for semiconductor devices or electronic components are typically required to be insulating. In some embodiments, the curable resin composition is insulating. In some embodiments, the curable resin composition does not contain conductive particles.
[0088] The resin composition of this embodiment is preferably substantially free of liquid components such as water, solvents, and ionic liquids (excluding liquid components (A) to (D)) from the viewpoint of preventing reduced curing strength and adhesion due to curing, and preventing outgassing and bleeding.

[0089] Non-limiting formulation examples of the resin composition according to this embodiment are shown in the table below.
[0090] The viscosity of the resin composition in this embodiment at 25°C is preferably 0.5 to 80 Pa·s. The viscosity can be adjusted as appropriate depending on the application and application location of the resin composition. In one embodiment, the viscosity of the resin composition at 25°C may be 30 to 65 Pa·s. In one embodiment, the viscosity of the resin composition at 25°C may be 1.0 to 15 Pa·s. In this specification, unless otherwise specified, viscosity is expressed as a value measured in accordance with Japanese Industrial Standard JIS K6833. Specifically, it can be determined by measuring at 25°C and a rotation speed of 50 rpm using an HBDV or RV type viscometer depending on the viscosity range. There are no particular restrictions on the equipment, rotor, or measurement range used.
[0091] The thixotropic index (TI) value of the resin composition in this embodiment at 25°C is preferably 1.0 to 8.0. The thixotropic index value can be adjusted as appropriate depending on the application and application location of the resin composition. In one embodiment, the thixotropic index (TI) value of the resin composition at 25°C may be 3.0 to 7.0. In another embodiment, the thixotropic index (TI) value of the resin composition at 25°C may be 0.9 to 5.0. In this specification, the thixotropic index (TI) value can be determined by measuring the viscosity at 5 rpm and 50 rpm at 25°C using an HBDV or RV viscometer, depending on the viscosity range, and using the following formula: [TI value] = [Viscosity at 5 rpm] / [Viscosity at 50 rpm]
[0092] In one embodiment, the viscosity of the resin composition at 25°C is 0.5 to 80 Pa·s, and the thixotropic index (TI) value of the resin composition at 25°C is 1.0 to 8.0. In another embodiment, the viscosity of the resin composition at 25°C is 30 to 65 Pa·s, and the thixotropic index (TI) value of the resin composition at 25°C is 3.0 to 7.0. In yet another embodiment, the viscosity of the resin composition at 25°C is 1.0 to 15 Pa·s, and the thixotropic index (TI) value of the resin composition at 25°C is 0.9 to 5.0.
[0093] The resin composition can be obtained, for example, by stirring, melting, mixing, and / or dispersing components (A) to (D), and other additives as needed, simultaneously or separately, while applying heat treatment as necessary. The apparatus for these mixing, stirring, and dispersion processes is not particularly limited. Apparatus such as a Leikai mill, Henschel mixer, three-roll mill, ball mill, planetary mixer, and bead mill, all equipped with stirring and heating devices, can be used. These apparatuses may also be used in appropriate combinations.
[0094] The resin composition of this embodiment can be a one-component resin composition contained in a single container, or a two-component (or multi-component) resin composition contained in two or more containers, depending on its intended use. In the case of a two-component (or multi-component) resin composition, components (A) to (D) and other optional components as needed can be selected in the same way as for a one-component composition. Also, in the case of a two-component (or multi-component) resin composition, components (A) to (D) and other optional components as needed can be divided into two or multiple liquids in any way without particular restriction. When divided into two or multiple liquids in any way, one or more components selected from components (A) to (D) and other optional components as needed may be contained in each liquid, components (A) to (D) may be contained in one liquid, or there may be a liquid consisting only of components (A) to (D) and / or other optional components as needed. For example, when dividing into liquid A and liquid B, the division may be as follows: liquid A: component (A), liquid B: component (B), component (C), and component (D); liquid A: component (A) and component (B), liquid B: component (C) and component (D); liquid A: component (A) and component (C), liquid B: component (B) and component (D); liquid A: component (A), component (B), and component (C), liquid B: component (D); liquid A: component (A), component (B), and component (D), liquid B: component (C); or liquid A: component (A), component (C), and component (D), liquid B: component (B). If components (A) to (D) are contained in liquid A and the other components are contained in liquid B, liquid A alone, or liquids A and B together, can be considered as the resin composition of this embodiment. On the other hand, if components (A) to (D) are each contained in separate liquids, the combined liquids can be considered as the resin composition of this embodiment. An example of a case where components (A) to (D) are each contained in separate liquids is a resin composition in which components (A) to (D) are divided into two or more containers, specifically a kit consisting of multiple liquids containing any of components (A) to (D).
[0095] The resin composition obtained in this manner is thermosetting if (D) the polymerization initiator contains (D1) the thermal polymerization initiator, is photocurable if (D) the polymerization initiator contains (D2) the photopolymerization initiator, and is photo- and thermosetting if (D) the polymerization initiator contains both (D1) the thermal polymerization initiator and (D2) the photopolymerization initiator.
[0096] When the resin composition is heat-cured, it can be cured by, for example, a heat treatment at 40 to 200°C for 0.1 to 300 minutes. Under conditions of 100°C, curing is preferably within 5 hours, more preferably within 3 hours, and even more preferably within 1 hour. When the resin composition of this embodiment is used in the manufacture of semiconductor devices or electronic components that include parts that degrade under high-temperature conditions, it is preferable to heat-cur the composition at a temperature of 40 to 90°C for 30 to 120 minutes. For example, when the resin composition is used in an optical sensor module, the curing temperature is preferably 40 to 90°C, and more preferably 60 to 90°C.
[0097] When a resin composition is photocured, the light used for irradiation is, for example, ultraviolet (UV) light. In this specification, ultraviolet light refers to light rays with a wavelength in the range of 200 nm to 410 nm. The resin composition of this embodiment can be cured by irradiation at any of the wavelengths of 365 nm, 385 nm, or 405 nm. The irradiation dose of the light is 50 mJ / cm². 2 ~2000mJ / cm 2 It is preferable that this be the case.
[0098] If the resin composition of this embodiment contains (D1) a thermal polymerization initiator and (D2) a photopolymerization initiator, the resin composition can be further cured by heat, for example, after or during light (UV) curing.
[0099] The resin composition of this embodiment can be used, for example, as an adhesive or sealant for fixing, joining, or protecting semiconductor devices or electronic components or the components that make them up, or as a raw material thereof.
[0100] [Adhesive or Sealant] An adhesive or sealant according to one aspect of the present invention comprises the resin composition of the above aspect. This adhesive or sealant enables good fixing, bonding, or protection of general-purpose plastics (e.g., PE, PS, PP, etc.), engineering plastics (e.g., LCP (liquid crystal polymer), polyphthalamide, polycarbonate, polyamide, polybutylene terephthalate, polyimide, etc.), glass, ceramics, metals (e.g., copper, nickel, SUS, etc.), organic substrates (e.g., FR4, etc.), flexible printed circuit boards (FPC), etc., and can be used to fix, bond, or protect components constituting semiconductor devices or electronic components. Examples of semiconductor devices include, but are not limited to, HDDs, semiconductor elements, optical sensor modules such as image sensor modules and TOF sensor modules, other semiconductor modules, and integrated circuits.
[0101] The adhesive or sealant of this embodiment may be a one-component adhesive or sealant contained in a single container, or a two-component (or multi-component) adhesive or sealant contained in two or more containers, depending on its application. When used as a two-component (or multi-component) adhesive or sealant, components (A) to (D) and other optional components as needed can be selected in the same way as for the one-component type, and the curing method is also the same as for the one-component type. Furthermore, when used as a two-component (or multi-component) adhesive or sealant, components (A) to (D) and other optional components as needed can be divided into two or multiple liquids in any way without particular restriction. When divided into two or multiple liquids in any way, one or more components selected from components (A) to (D) and other optional components as needed may be contained in each liquid, components (A) to (D) may be contained in one liquid, or there may be a liquid consisting only of components (A) to (D) and / or other optional components as needed. For example, when dividing into liquid A and liquid B, the division may be as follows: liquid A: component (A), liquid B: component (B), component (C), and component (D); liquid A: component (A) and component (B), liquid B: component (C) and component (D); liquid A: component (A) and component (C), liquid B: component (B) and component (D); liquid A: component (A), component (B), and component (C), liquid B: component (D); liquid A: component (A), component (B), and component (D), liquid B: component (C); or liquid A: component (A), component (C), and component (D), liquid B: component (B). If components (A) to (D) are contained in liquid A and the other components are contained in liquid B, liquid A alone, or liquids A and B together, can be considered as the adhesive or sealant of this embodiment. On the other hand, if components (A) to (D) are each contained in separate liquids, the combined liquids can be considered as the adhesive or sealant of this embodiment. An example of a case where components (A) to (D) are each contained in separate liquids is, for example, an adhesive or sealant in which components (A) to (D) are divided into two or more containers, specifically a kit consisting of multiple liquids containing any of components (A) to (D).

[0107] The following measurements were performed on the samples obtained for the examples and comparative examples.
[0108] [Measurement of Adhesion Strength (Shear Strength) of Thermocured Products to Engineering Plastics] (1) On LCP substrates, polyphthalamide (PPA) substrates, and polycarbonate (PC) substrates, which are engineering plastic substrates, the resin compositions of Examples 1 to 16 and Comparative Example 1 were applied by stencil printing to a diameter of φ2 mm and a thickness of 100 μm, respectively. Alumina chips measuring 3.2 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.45 mm thick were laminated on the applied resin compositions, and test specimens were prepared by applying a light load. These test specimens were cured under thermocuring conditions. Under thermocuring conditions, the test specimens were left to stand in a forced-air dryer at 80°C for 60 minutes to thermocur. (2) The alumina chips on the LCP substrate, polyphthalamide (PPA) substrate, and polycarbonate (PC) substrate of the test specimens obtained in (1) above were punctured from the side with a bond tester (Dage Series 4000) at 23°C, and the stress (N) at which the alumina chip peeled off was measured. This measurement was performed on 10 test specimens, and the average value of the obtained stresses was calculated. This average value is shown in Table 1 as the shear strength of the cured material (unit: N / Chip).
[0109] [Measurement of Adhesion Strength (Shear Strength) of Photocured and Thermocured Products to Engineering Plastics] (1) The resin compositions of the examples and comparative examples were applied to LCP substrates, polyphthalamide (PPA) substrates, and polycarbonate (PC) substrates, respectively, by stencil printing in a diameter of φ2 mm and a thickness of 100 μm. Alumina chips measuring 3.2 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.45 mm thick were then laminated on the applied resin compositions, and a light load was applied to create test specimens. These test specimens were cured under photocuring and thermocuring conditions. Under photocuring and thermocuring conditions, a single-wavelength UV LED light source (OmniCure® AC475, manufactured by Excelitas Technologies) was used to irradiate the test specimens at a height of 4 cm from the top surface of the test specimen to the light source, with a wavelength of 365 nm and an irradiation intensity of 500 mW / cm². 2 And the accumulated light intensity is 2000 mJ / cm 2(Measured using an ultraviolet integrated light meter UIT-250 and a photodetector UVD-S365 (manufactured by Ushio Inc.)) After continuous irradiation until the desired result was reached, the specimens were left to stand in a forced-air dryer at 80°C for 60 minutes to allow for photo- and thermal curing. (2) The alumina chips on the substrate of the test specimens obtained in (1) above were punctured from the side with a bond tester (Dage, Series 4000) at 23°C, and the stress (N) at which the alumina chips peeled off was measured. This measurement was performed on 10 test specimens, and the average value of the obtained stresses was calculated. This average value is shown in Tables 2 to 4 as the shear strength (unit: N / Chip) of the cured material.
[0110] [Measurement of Adhesion Strength (Shear Strength) of Thermo-cured and Photo-cured Products to Metals] The shear strength (unit: N / Chip) of thermo-cured and photo-cured products was determined in the same manner as above, except that a nickel substrate was used instead of an engineering plastic substrate. The results are shown in Table 5.
[0111] [Dispensability] The resin compositions of Examples 12 and 16 were continuously dispensed using a VERMES Microdispensing MDS 3200F jet dispenser. The number of shots that could be dispensed continuously was measured and evaluated using the following index. The dispensability of Examples 12 and 16 was evaluated as ○. ○: The number of shots that could be dispensed continuously was 100,000 or more. △: The number of shots that could be dispensed continuously was 10,000 or more but less than 100,000. ×: The number of shots that could be dispensed continuously was less than 10,000.

[0113]
[0114]
[0115] The resin compositions of Examples 1 to 16, which satisfy the configuration of the present invention, exhibited high adhesive strength (shear strength) of the cured product to the engineering plastic substrate after thermosetting. On the other hand, the resin composition of Comparative Example 1, which does not satisfy the configuration of the present invention, exhibited lower adhesive strength (shear strength) of the cured product to the engineering plastic substrate than that of the resin compositions of Examples 1 to 16, which satisfy the configuration of the present invention.
[0116]
[0117]
[0118] As can be seen from Tables 2 to 4, the resin compositions of the examples tended to exhibit high adhesive strength (shear strength) to engineering plastic substrates, both in their photo-cured and heat-cured products. As can be seen from Table 5, the resin compositions of the examples also showed good adhesive strength (shear strength) to metals, both in their heat-cured products and in their photo-cured and heat-cured products.
