Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for forming electrodes in high-density mounting technologies face challenges such as complex shape formation, reliance on organic solvents for stripping, and accuracy issues with conductive pillars and connecting materials, particularly in fan-out type WLPs, where there is a need for materials that maintain heat resistance and can be dissolved in aqueous solutions.

Innovation Solution

A polymerizable composition comprising (meth)acryloylmorpholine and specific compounds, which can be cured with ionizing radiation and dissolved in water-containing solutions, is used to create a transfer matrix for forming electrodes, allowing for heat resistance and accurate placement of conductive materials.

Solution Approach 1:

The invention uses composite resin compositions consisting of specific polymers (polyacrylic acid, polyacrylamide, polyvinyl alcohol, carboxymethyl cellulose, or starch) with controlled molecular weights and compositions. These composite materials provide both the necessary heat resistance to withstand reflow processing (up to 260°C) and the solubility in water-containing stripping solutions, achieving a balance between thermal stability and removability.
