Adhesive film of quinoline polymer and bismaleimide

[0002] This invention relates to a resin composition comprising a polymer containing a quinoline ring and a thermosetting resin, an insulating material constituted by said resin composition and an adhesive film, particularly to a resin composition for an interlayer insulation film excellent in electric characteristics, molding property and adhesiveness with a material to be adhered, and has a low moisture absorption ratio, an insulating material constituted by said resin composition and an adhesive film.

[0003] As an interlayer insulating membrane for electronic parts, a dehydration-condensation type polyimide resin polyimide resin has heretofore been used (Japanese Provisional Patent Publication No. 222444/1988). Whereas the above-mentioned polyimide resin is excellent in heat resistance, mechanical characteristics, etc., a polyamic acid varnish which is a precursor thereof is required to be stored in a refrigerator at −5° C. or less whereby it is insufficient in storage stability. Also, it requires curing at a high temperature of 350° C. or higher and the cured product has the problem that it has a large moisture absorption ratio. Moreover, when copper is used which is a representative conductive material and inferior in adhesiveness with a material to be adhered, it has a problem that it reacts during heating or the like, and has a problem in the point of reliability.

[0004] As a measure of the above, an investigation of a polymer containing a quinoline ring has been made in recent years, and synthetic methods thereof have been described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,000,187, U.S. Pat. No. 5,247,050, U.S. Pat. No. 5,247,050, etc. Also, as the other conventional example thereof, there may be mentioned Japanese Provisional Patent Publication No. 25286/1987.

[0005] A polymer containing a quinoline ring has low specific permittivity and dielectric dissipation factor, excellent in electric characteristics, low moisture absorption ratio and good stability at high temperatures, but it involves the problems that adhesiveness with a material to be adhered is bad, molding property is poor, and it dissolved in a solvent so that a multi-layered structure can be hardly prepared or the like. In particular, when it is used as an insulating material of a multi-layered wiring board or an interlaminar insulating membrane of LSI, etc., for preparing a multi-layered structure, an insulating layer is formed by using a polymer containing a quinoline ring previously dissolved in a solvent, and then, the next layer is similarly formed by using a polymer containing a quinoline ring dissolved in a solvent whereby an insulating layer is formed. However, the insulating layer previously formed is dissolved in a solvent so that a multi-layered structure can be difficultly formed. Moreover, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, it can be considered a method in which a semi-cured film removing a solvent is formed, and molding is carried out under heating and pressure. However, the above film does not show flowability even when it is molded under heating and pressure so that, at present, it is difficult to apply the material to an insulating material for a multi-layered structure.

[0006] When the polymer containing a quinoline ring as mentioned above is used as an insulating material of a multi-layered wiring board or an interlaminar insulating membrane of LSI, etc., a multi-layered wiring board, etc. can be formed, for example, by forming a varnish previously dissolving in a solvent, coating it and drying to remove the solvent, and forming a conductive material by sputtering or chemical plating, etc., and the procedure is repeated. However, in this method, there are problems that a number of steps is much, an adhesiveness to the conductive material is poor, highly multi-layered structure can be difficultly prepared, and peeling occurs in a soldering step of LSI, etc., whereby reliability is insufficient, or the like.

[0007] An object of the present invention is to provide a resin composition and an adhesive film each excellent in molding property and has high adhesive force witha conductive material, resin, ceramics, etc. without impairing electric characteristics, low moisture absorption ratio and thermal stability at high temperatures.

[0026] In the following, the present invention is explained in detail.

[0027] In the polymer containing a polyquinoline ring, for obtaining an adhesive force, moldability and high multi-layered constitution, it is indispensable to be melted during the molding process under heating and pressure to adhere to a material to be adhered, and further to be deformed. For obtaining such properties, the polymer may be used through an adhesive which melts in the molding process under heating and pressure, adheres to the material to be adhered and deforms. However, when such a constitution is employed, the resulting material is liable to receive an effect of the adhesive and excellent characteristics obtained by the polymer containing a polyquinoline ring such as a little water absorption ratio, excellent in stability at high temperatures and excellent in electric characteristics, etc. To solve the above problems, the present inventors have investigated about fluidized phenomenon during the curing process and have found that fluidity occurs by dissolving the polymer containing a polyquinoline ring which is caused by a fused thermosetting resin by heating.

[0028] From such a viewpoint, they have investigated about the combination of the bismaleimide compound represented by the formula (2) of the above-mentioned (B) and the polymer containing a polyquinoline ring. As a result, whereas the polymer containing a polyquinoline ring represented by the formula (1) of the above-mentioned (A) has an elasticity at 250° C. of 10⁷dyn/cm²or more, it dissolves well in the fused bismaleimide compound represented by the formula (2) of the above-mentioned (B) whereby they have found that an elasticity is markedly lowered and it has a processing window.

[0029] Here, the term “processing window” means a temperature and time from softening the resin to curing the same in the curing procedure of the bismaleimide compound represented by the formula (2) in the above-mentioned (B). Those having a processing window is a material excellent in adhesiveness or molding property, and a resin having a processing window can be used as an insulating material for various uses.

[0030] Also, by adding (C) a polymeric compound selected from an aromatic diamine, an epoxy compound, a polybutadiene compound, etc., depending on the purpose of uses, in addition to (A) the polymer containing the polyquinoline ring represented by the above-mentioned formula (1) and (B) the bis-maleimide compound represented by the above-mentioned formula (2), mechanical characteristics of the resin composition, adhesive property with the material to be adhered, moldability, etc. can be more improved. Particularly, in these resin compositions, respective components are previously dissolved in (D) an organic solvent, a resin composition which is uniformly dissolved and excellent in characteristics can be obtained.

[0031] Next, in addition to (A) the polymer containing the polyquinoline ring represented by the above-mentioned formula (1) and (B) the bismaleimide compound represented by the above-mentioned formula (2), (C) the polymeric compound selected from an aromatic diamine, an epoxy compound, a polybutadiene compound, etc., depending on the purpose of uses is previously dissolved in (D) the organic solvent uniformly, and then, the organic solvent is removed to obtain a resin composition. The above-mentioned resin composition becomes a non-solvent type, and, for example, by making it in a film shape, it becomes a resin composition suitable for an insulating material such as an organic thin film multilayer wiring board for a multi-chip, a multilayer print wiring board, etc.

[0032] A resin composition which comprises a resin composition, in addition to (A) the polymer containing the polyquinoline ring represented by the above-mentioned formula (1) and (B) the bismaleimide compound represented by the above-mentioned formula (2), (C) the polymeric compound selected from an aromatic diamine, an epoxy compound, a polybutadiene compound, etc., depending on the purpose of uses is previously dissolved in (D) the organic solvent uniformly, and then, the organic solvent is removed has a temperature region showing the storage elastic modulus at a temperature of 250° C. or less of 10⁷dyn/cm²to 10²dyn/cm²so that it is excellent in moldability.

[0033] Also, it has saturated moisture absorption of 1% or less, is less affected by the volatile component at heating, and peeling and blister with the material to be adhered difficultly occur. Moreover, it has heat resistance at heated atmosphere of 330° C. of 10 minutes or more. For example, when it is used as an insulating layer which is required to have heat resistance such as a multi-chip module multilayer wiring board, etc., it can be applied to a product having a process which is carried out a heating step of a pin connecting temperature (330° C./10 minutes) when electronic parts are connected (300° C. to 330° C./5 minutes). Furthermore, it has an adhesive forth to the material to be adhered of 0.6 kgf/cm or more so that it is also excellent in the point of reliability. From the above viewpoints, the resin composition of the present invention is excellent in moldability, low moisture absorption, heat resistance and adhesiveness with the material to be adhered, whereby it becomes an insulating material excellent in uniformity against the required characteristics.

[0034] As a result of earnest studies on (A) the polymer containing the quinoline ring represented by the above-formula (I), the inventors have found that when (B) the polymer containing the quinoline ring and a bismaleimide compound having a structure of the above-mentioned formula (5) or (6), without mostly not impaired the characteristic feature of the polymer having the quinoline ring, (B) the bismaleimide compound having the structure of the above-mentioned formula (2) uniformly dissolves and flown whereby it is closely contacted with the material to be adhered so that excellent adhesive property can be obtained and a resin composition and an adhesive film both having excellent mechanical characteristics can be provided.

Incidentally, the reason why an aromatic series compound is used is that they are advantageous in the point of thermal resistance as compared with those of an aliphatic series compound.

[0038] As an epoxy compound among (C) the polymeric compound, there may be used, for example, at least one of a bifunctional epoxy compound such as diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A, 3,4-epoxycyclohexylmethyl-3,4-epoxycyclohexanecarboxylate, 4,4′-(1,2-epoxyethyl)biphenyl, 4,4′-(1,2-epoxyethyl)biphenyl ether, resorcinglycidyl ether, bis(2,3-epoxycyclopentyl) ether, N,N′-m-phenylenebis(4,5′-epoxy-1,2-cyclohexanedicarbodiimide), etc., an epoxy compound of trifunctional or more such as a triglycidyl compound of p-aminophenol, 1,3,5-tri(1,2-epoxyethyl)benzene, tetraglycidoxytetraphenylethane, phenolformaldehyde novolac resin, an epoxy compound having a hydrantoin skeleton, an epoxy compound containing a halogen atom such as a brominated epoxy compound, and the like.

[0039] As a polybutadiene compound among (C) the compound, there may be used, for example, at least one of 1,2-polybutadiene, cyclized 1,2-polybutadiene, epoxy-modified 1,2-polybutadiene, terminal epoxidized 1,2-polybutadiene, 1,2-polybutadiene glycol, 1,2-polybutadiene carboxylic acid, urethanemodified 1,2-polybutadiene, maleimidated 1,2-polybutadiene, terminal acryl-modified 1,2-polybutadiene, terminal estermodified 1,2-polybutadiene compound, and the like.

[0040] As (D) the organic solvent, there may be used at least one selected from, for example, methyl cellosolve, methyl ethyl ketone, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, quinoline, cyclopentanone, m-cresol, chloroform, etc.

[0041] In the present invention, the formulation ratio of the polymer containing the quinoline ring of Component (A) and the bismaleimide compound of Component (B) is preferably 30% by weight to 99.9% by weight of the polymer containing the quinoline ring of Component (A) and 0.1% by weight to 70% by weight of the bismaleimide compound of Component (B). If the amount of the polymer containing the quinoline ring of Component (A) is made less than 30% by weight, fluidity is excellent but mechanical characteristics are poor so that desired film formation becomes difficult and there cause the problem that crack occurs at the insulating portion when making multilayer structure and the like.

[0042] In the present invention, the formulation ratio of the polymer containing the quinoline ring of Component (A) and the bismaleimide compound of Component (B) is more preferably 30% by weight to 70% by weight based on the total solid component which is the sum of the both components when the preparation of an adhesive film is intended by using the knife coating, the bar coating, etc. On the other hand, when preparation of a multi-layered layer insulation film with a low dielectric constant is intended by the spin coating method, etc., the amount of bismaleimide compound of Component (B) is desirably from 0.1 to 30% by weight, particularly preferably 5 to 30% by weight based on the total solid component which is the sum of the both components. If an amount of Component (B) is made 5% by weight or less, mechanical characteristics are excellent but solubility in a solvent becomes large so that cracks are sometimes generated at the insulating portion when a multi-layer structure is to be made.

[0043] Also, in the present invention, when the polymeric compound of Component (C) is to be added, an amount thereof is desirably 40% by weight or less based on the total resin component. When Component (C) is added in an amount of 40% by weight or more, whereas moldability and adhesiveness are excellent, it arises the problem that heat resistance is poor.

[0044] In the present invention, as the method for obtaining the resin composition comprising the polymer containing the quinoline ring of Component (A) and the bismaleimide compound of Component (B), or the resin composition comprising the polymer containing the quinoline ring of Component (A), the bismaleimide compound of Component (B) and the polymeric compound of Component (C), there may be mentioned the method in which the bismaleimide compound of Component (B) and the polymeric compound of Component (C) are previously melted by heating, then, the polymer containing the quinoline ring of Component (A) is added thereto to mix uniformly, and thereafter the composition is cured to obtain the resin composition. However, in general, suitable is the method in which the polymer containing the quinoline ring of Component (A), the bismaleimide compound of Component (B) and the polymeric compound of Component (C) are uniformly mixed in the organic solvent (D) to obtain the composition as a varnish. Moreover, it is possible to make a film by removing the solvent from the varnish.

[0045] The adhesive film in the present invention can be obtained, for example, by flow casting or coating the above-mentioned varnish on a substrate film such as a polyamide or a polyester, etc. with a certain thickness, and after drying between 100° C. and 250° C., peeling from the substrate.

[0046] In the above-mentioned procedure, it is particularly important to select the kind of the solvent to be used and the final drying temperature at the time of removing the solvent. As the above-mentioned solvent, there may be used a kind selected from the group consisting of methyl cellosolve, methyl ethyl ketone, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, quinoline, cyclopentanone, m-cresol and chloroform, etc., or a mixed solvent of the above solvents. It is preferred to use N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, cyclopentanone and/or m-cresol so that the resin composition is to be sufficiently dissolved and sufficiently removed by drying, and by the same reason, it is more preferred to use N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and/or cyclopentanone. Moreover, it is particularly preferred to use cyclopentanone in the points that it is difficultly moisture absorbed and the film is difficultly blushed.

[0047] The final drying temperature is preferably within the range between 100° C. and 250° C. If it is less than 100° C., the solvent can hardly removed sufficiently while if it exceeds 250° C., Component (B) is thermoset whereby fluidity at the time of adhesion is easily lowered. By the same reason, the drying temperature is preferably 150° C. to 220° C., more preferably 160° C. to 200° C., particularly preferably 160° C. to 180° C.

[0048] According to the above solvent and the drying temperature, an adhesive film having a sufficiently less amount of the residual solvent and excellent in fluidity at the time of adhesion can be obtained.
