TABLE 1-1 influence of PPE resin content
Comparing Tg and the usage ratio of Dk, Df to PPE, too high or too low amount of PPE will result in too low Tg, while the amount of PPE will also affect Dk, Df, when the amount of PPE is high, Dk, Df are both high, and when the amount of PPE is low, Dk, Df are both low. Preferably, Dk and Df are both low. In addition, the thermal expansion coefficient is increased by adding PPE, so that the thermal expansion coefficient is decreased by adding BMI. In Table 1-1, PPE type SA9000 is available from Sabic corporation under the chemical name of poly-2, 6-dimethyl-1, 4-phenylene oxide (PPO) or PPE (polyphenylene ether), also known as polyphenylene oxide or polyphenylene ether.
TABLE 1-2 influence of LCP content
Liquid Crystal Polymers (LCP) generally exhibit good chemical, moisture and heat resistance, and good mechanical strength, and are capable of forming thin films with a high degree of structural integrity. However, the cost and/or dielectric constant of films made using LCP alone may be too high for some cushion applications.
The LCP's of the invention are selected from a liquid crystalline polymer (or a thermoplastic polymer capable of forming a selectively anisotropic dissolved phase) that can be processed in the melt. The chemical formula of the LCP is not particularly limited as long as it can dissolve the processed liquid crystalline polymer, and examples thereof may include a vinyl type thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer, an aramid thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer, or an aromatic polyester thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer, and it is preferable to introduce allyl group modification due to the terminal and/or side ends. The LCP of the invention can perform radical reaction by allyl to form interpenetrating polymer networks. Example C13 in tables 1-2 used low Dk glass fibers and example C8 and example C9 used E-glass fibers.
The vinyl type thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer has the following structure:
the aramid thermoplastic liquid crystalline polymer has the following structure:

TABLE 2 influence of the differences in the structure and ratio of BMI resins
TABLE 2-continuation
Comparing the use ratio of the coefficient of thermal expansion to the BMI, the higher the ratio of the BMI, the lower the reduction in the coefficient of thermal expansion. In this example, BMI comparisons were divided into three parts, A1-A5 for BMI resins of the same type at different ratios, A6-A8 for BMI resins of the same type but different types, and A9-A15 for comparison of mixed BMI resins. BMI models 2300, 4000, 5100, TMH are produced by Daiwakasei Industry CO., LTD, and the chemical names are in the following comparison table.
From A1 to A5, different ratios of BMI of the same species were effective in reducing the coefficient of thermal expansion, but also in improving the water absorption rate. From A6-A8, different BMI's are effective at reducing the coefficient of thermal expansion, but also have an effect on water absorption. From A9-A15, different combinations of BMI were also effective in reducing the coefficient of thermal expansion and at the same time achieving water absorption. The purpose of adding BMI in the invention is to reduce the thermal expansion coefficient, but the water absorption rate is also increased according to the use ratio and combination of BMI, so that the water absorption rate is reduced by adding a polymer additive.
TABLE 3 Effect of Polymer additive Structure and ratio Difference
TABLE 3-run
Comparing the ratio of water absorption to the use of polymer additives, the use of Polybutadiene (polybutadienes) and styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer (SMA) results in lower water absorption but higher thermal expansion coefficient when the same Polybutadiene is used. When different kinds of polybutadiene are used and SMA is matched for use, the SMA is more effective in reducing the water absorption rate and can also reduce the thermal expansion coefficient, but the performance of the SMA in the Df part is poor, and the defect of the SMA in the Df part can be overcome by using the polybutadiene. Butadiene models Ricon100, Ricon130MA8, Ricon150, Ricon257 from Sartomer are listed in the Table, with chemical names as follows.
In the table, SMA is listed as S: M ═ 3:1, which represents the ratio of Styrene (Styrene) to Maleic Anhydride (Maleic Anhydride), and the ratio is generally in the range of 1:1 to 12: 1.
TABLE 4 influence of the differences in the type of crosslinking agent
The low dielectric material of the present invention further comprises 40 to 80 parts by weight of at least one crosslinking agent selected from the following group: triallyl cyanate, triallyl isocyanate, 4-t-butyl styrene and trimethallyl allyl isocyanate (TMAIC). Compared with the influence of different crosslinking agents (crosslinking agents) on the physical properties of the invention, the Tg and the thermal expansion coefficient of the triallyl cyanate (TAC) are poor, and the Dk, the Df and the water absorption are common. Physical properties are more average when triallyl isocyanate (TAIC) is used. However, one disadvantage of using TAIC is that it is volatile during hot pressing. The use of TMAIC is effective in improving the high volatility of TAIC because TMAIC has a high melting point and is not easily evaporated, while maintaining its properties at a normal level. The use of 4-t-butylstyrene (TBS) is preferred in view of thermal expansion coefficient, water absorption and Df, but the Dk value is low.
TABLE 5 influence of differences in flame retardant types
The flame retardant can be matched with different flame retardants according to physical requirements. The halogen-containing flame retardant part may be added with 7 to 15phr (calculated by the sum of PPE, LCP, BMI, polymer additive and crosslinking agent) of decabromodiphenylethane (decabromodiphenylethane), and the halogen-free flame retardant part may be added with 12 to 14phr (calculated by the sum of PPE, LCP, BMI, polymer additive and crosslinking agent) of at least one selected from the following groups: phosphorus-containing flame retardants and phosphoric acid esters from ALBEMARLE corporation. Phosphoric acid esters such as resorcinol bis [ bis (2,6-dimethylphenyl) phosphate ] (Tetrakis (2,6-dimethylphenyl)1,3-phenylene bisphophate), HCA derivative (I), HCA derivative (II) and HCA derivative (III), wherein HCA derivative (III) having a product name XP7866 comprises an organic filler, 10-15% phosphorus. XP7866 has a particle size in the range of 0.5 μm to 60 μm.
TABLE 6 influence of the differences in the type and proportion of the inorganic fillers
TABLE 6-run
As for the inorganic filler, depending on physical requirements, 8 to 50phr (calculated by the sum of PPE, LCP, BMI, polymer additive and cross-linking agent) of different inorganic fillers may be added, such as fused silica, spherical silica and soft silica, such as Siliesof, wherein the soft silica may be used to reduce drill point abrasion during PCB drilling, compare examples F1-F3 with F8-F9. The soft silica has a particle size in the range of 0.5 μm to 10 μm. In the case of the same proportion of fused silica and spherical silica, the spherical silica is used, and both Dk and Df are lower than those of the fused silica.
TABLE 7 influence of the type and ratio differences of the crosslinking promoters
TABLE 7-run
The low dielectric material of the present invention further comprises 2 to 8phr (calculated as the sum of PPE, LCP, BMI, polymer additive and crosslinking agent) of peroxide having a 10-hour half-life temperature range of 116 ℃ to 128 ℃. The crosslinking accelerators (catalysts) may be used in combination with different crosslinking accelerators depending on the physical requirements. The invention can use peroxide with 10-hour half-life and temperature range of 116-128 ℃, preferably uses peroxide with 10-hour half-life and temperature of 119 ℃.
The low dielectric material of the invention uses PPE but does not add epoxy resin, because the addition of epoxy resin can cause Dk/Df to not reach the expected value, because the epoxy resin can generate too many OH groups after ring opening, and further causes Dk and Df value to not be reduced.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
