Detailed Description
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described.
[ sheet for workpiece processing ]
The workpiece processing sheet of the present embodiment includes a base material and an adhesive layer laminated on one side of the base material.
The adhesive layer of the present embodiment is composed of an active energy ray-curable adhesive formed from an adhesive composition containing an acrylic copolymer containing an alkoxy (meth) acrylate as a monomer unit constituting a polymer.
Further, in the workpiece processing sheet of the present embodiment, when the adhesion of the workpiece processing sheet to the silicon wafer is F1, and the workpiece processing sheet is immersed in distilled water at 23 ℃ for 12 hours, and further, the adhesion of the workpiece processing sheet dried at 23 ℃ for 24 hours is F2, the reduction ratio of the adhesion calculated by the following formula (1) is 20% or more and 50% or less. In the present specification, the adhesion force F1 and the adhesion force F2 are both measured before the active energy ray is irradiated to the workpiece processing sheet. The details of the method for measuring the adhesive force F1 and the adhesive force F2 are as described in the test examples described later,
The reduction in adhesion (%) = { (F1-F2)/F1 } ×100·· (1).
In the work processing sheet of the present embodiment, since the adhesive layer is formed of the adhesive composition and the above-described reduction ratio of the adhesive force is simultaneously exhibited, when the work processing sheet of the present embodiment is used for cutting an object to be cut, the adhesive adhering to the object to be cut can be removed well by running water while suppressing penetration of water into the interface between the work processing sheet and the object to be cut or the interface between the work processing sheet and the obtained chip.
In particular, by setting the reduction ratio of the adhesive force to the above range, even when the adhesive layer is exposed to flowing water, the adhesive force of the adhesive layer to the cut object remains moderately, and penetration of water into the interface between the work piece processing sheet and the cut object or the interface between the work piece processing sheet and the obtained chip can be suppressed. This can satisfactorily suppress chip scattering and chip defects caused by such water penetration.
On the other hand, by forming the adhesive layer from the adhesive composition, the adhesive layer has a moderate affinity for water, and by setting the reduction ratio of the adhesive force to the above range, even when the adhesive derived from the adhesive layer adheres to the cut object in the cutting step, the adhesive force of the adhesive can be moderately reduced by flowing water, and the adhesive can be satisfactorily removed from the cut object.
If the reduction ratio of the adhesive force is less than 20%, the adhesive force of the adhesive to the object to be cut is maintained even after the adhesive from the adhesive layer is exposed to the running water, and the adhesive adhering to the object to be cut cannot be sufficiently removed by the running water. If the reduction ratio of the adhesive force is more than 50%, the adhesive force of the adhesive layer to the cut object is excessively reduced, and the cut object or the obtained chip cannot be held on the adhesive layer satisfactorily, and peeling of the cut object or chip scattering and chip defects occur at the time of dicing. From such a viewpoint, the reduction rate of the adhesive force is preferably 23% or more. The reduction rate of the adhesive force is preferably 40% or less.
1. Physical properties of sheet for workpiece processing
In the workpiece processing sheet of the present embodiment, the adhesion F1 is preferably 1000mN/25mm or more, particularly preferably 2000mN/25mm or more, and further preferably 3000mN/25mm or more. The adhesion F1 is preferably 10000mN/25mm or less, particularly preferably 7000mN/25mm or less.
In the workpiece processing sheet of the present embodiment, the adhesion force F2 is preferably 900mN/25mm or more, particularly preferably 1500mN/25mm or more, and further preferably 2000mN/25mm or more. The adhesion F2 is preferably 8000mN/25mm or less, particularly preferably 5000mN/25mm or less.
By setting the adhesion force F1 and the adhesion force F2 to the above ranges, respectively, the reduction rate of the adhesion force can be easily adjusted to the above ranges.
In the work processing sheet of the present embodiment, the water contact angle of the surface of the adhesive layer opposite to the base material (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "adhesive surface") is preferably 50 ° or more, particularly preferably 55 ° or more, and further preferably 60 ° or more. The water contact angle is preferably 80 ° or less, particularly preferably 75 ° or less, and further preferably 70 ° or less. When the water contact angle is 50 ° or more, the affinity of the adhesive layer for water does not become excessively high, and thus, when the workpiece processing sheet is used for cutting a cut object, penetration of water into the interface between the workpiece processing sheet and the cut object or the interface between the workpiece processing sheet and the obtained chip can be effectively suppressed. In addition, by setting the water contact angle to 80 ° or less, the adhesive layer exhibits a moderate affinity for water, and the adhesive adhering to the object to be cut can be effectively removed by flowing water. In the present specification, the water contact angle refers to a value measured before active energy rays are irradiated to a workpiece processing sheet. The details of the method for measuring the water contact angle are described in the test examples described below.
2. Component of sheet for processing workpiece
(1) Substrate material
In the work processing sheet of the present embodiment, the base material is not particularly limited as long as it exhibits a desired function in the work processing sheet use process, and preferably exhibits good transmittance for active energy rays irradiated for curing the adhesive layer.
For example, the base material is preferably a resin film mainly composed of a resin material, and specific examples thereof include an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer film; ethylene copolymer films such as ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid copolymer films, ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid methyl ester copolymer films, and other ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid ester copolymer films; polyolefin films such as polyethylene film, polypropylene film, polybutylene film, polybutadiene film, polymethylpentene film, ethylene-norbornene copolymer film, and norbornene resin film; polyvinyl chloride films such as polyvinyl chloride films and vinyl chloride copolymer films; polyethylene terephthalate film, polybutylene terephthalate film, polyethylene naphthalate and other polyester films; (meth) acrylate copolymer films; a polyurethane film; a polyimide film; a polystyrene film; a polycarbonate film; a fluororesin film, and the like. Examples of the polyethylene film include a Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) film, a Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) film, and a High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) film. In addition, modified membranes such as crosslinked membranes, ionomer membranes, and the like of the above membranes may also be used. The substrate may be a laminated film in which a plurality of the above films are laminated. In the laminated film, the materials constituting the respective layers may be the same or different. As the base material, an ethylene-methyl methacrylate copolymer film is preferably used from among the films described above in view of excellent flexibility. In the present specification, "meth) acrylic" refers to acrylic acid and methacrylic acid. Other similar terms are also the same.
The base material may contain various additives such as flame retardants, plasticizers, antistatic agents, lubricants, antioxidants, colorants, infrared absorbers, ultraviolet absorbers, ion capturing agents, and the like. The content of these additives is not particularly limited, but is preferably set in a range where the base material exhibits a desired function.
In order to improve the adhesion to the adhesive layer, the surface of the substrate on which the adhesive layer is laminated may be subjected to surface treatments such as primer treatment, corona treatment, and plasma treatment.
The thickness of the base material may be appropriately set according to the method of using the work piece, but is usually preferably 20 μm or more, and particularly preferably 25 μm or more. The thickness is usually 450 μm or less, and particularly 300 μm or less.
(2) Adhesive layer
In the sheet for workpiece processing of the present embodiment, the adhesive layer is not particularly limited as long as it is composed of an active energy ray-curable adhesive formed from an adhesive composition containing an acrylic copolymer containing an alkoxy (meth) acrylate as a monomer unit constituting a polymer and exhibiting a desired adhesive force to a cut object, and the sheet for workpiece processing can achieve the above-mentioned rate of decrease in adhesive force. When the adhesive layer is made of an active energy ray-curable adhesive, the adhesive layer can be cured by irradiation of active energy rays at the time of separating the cut object attached to the adhesive surface of the adhesive layer from the adhesive surface, and the adhesion of the workpiece processing sheet to the cut object can be reduced. This facilitates separation of the adhesive surface of the adhesive layer from the cut object.
The active energy ray-curable adhesive constituting the adhesive layer may contain a polymer having active energy ray-curability as a main component, or may contain a mixture of an inactive energy ray-curable polymer (a polymer having no active energy ray-curability) and a monomer and/or oligomer having at least one or more active energy ray-curable groups as a main component. In addition, the polymer may be a mixture of an active energy ray-curable polymer and a non-active energy ray-curable polymer. Further, the polymer may be a mixture of a polymer having active energy ray curability and a monomer and/or oligomer having at least one active energy ray curability group. Further, the polymer may be a mixture of an active energy ray-curable polymer, an inactive energy ray-curable polymer, and a monomer and/or oligomer having at least one active energy ray-curable group.
When the active energy ray-curable adhesive constituting the adhesive layer contains the polymer having active energy ray-curability, the monomer unit constituting the polymer preferably contains the (meth) acrylic acid alkoxy ester. When the active energy ray-curable adhesive constituting the adhesive layer contains the above-mentioned inactive energy ray-curable polymer, the monomer unit constituting the polymer preferably contains the above-mentioned (meth) acrylic acid alkoxy ester. These details are described below.
First, the case where the active energy ray-curable adhesive contains an active energy ray-curable polymer as a main component will be described below.
The polymer having active energy ray curability is preferably a (meth) acrylate (co) polymer (a) having an active energy ray-curable functional group (active energy ray-curable group) introduced into a side chain (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "active energy ray-curable polymer (a)"). The active energy ray-curable polymer (a) is preferably obtained by reacting an acrylic copolymer (a 1) with an unsaturated group-containing compound (a 2), the acrylic copolymer (a 1) having a functional group-containing monomer unit, the unsaturated group-containing compound (a 2) having a functional group bonded to the functional group of (a 1).
The acrylic copolymer (a 1) preferably contains an alkoxy (meth) acrylate as a monomer unit constituting the polymer. Thus, when the workpiece processing sheet is used for cutting an object to be cut, the adhesive adhering to the object to be cut can be effectively and satisfactorily removed by flowing water. Specific examples of the alkoxy (meth) acrylate include 2-methoxyethyl (meth) acrylate, ethyl carbitol (meth) acrylate, ethoxyethoxyethyl (meth) acrylate, and methoxyethylene glycol (meth) acrylate, and among them, 2-methoxyethyl (meth) acrylate is preferably used, and 2-methoxyethyl acrylate is particularly preferably used, from the viewpoint of easily obtaining the above-mentioned effects.
When the acrylic copolymer (a 1) contains an alkoxy (meth) acrylate as a monomer unit constituting the polymer, the content of the alkoxy (meth) acrylate is preferably 10% by mass or more, particularly preferably 20% by mass or more, and further preferably 30% by mass or more. The content of the alkoxy (meth) acrylate is preferably 85% by mass or less, particularly preferably 80% by mass or less, and further preferably 70% by mass or less. By setting the content of the (meth) acrylic acid alkoxy ester to 10 mass% or more, the adhesive layer easily has a predetermined hydrophilicity to water, and the adhesive adhering to the object to be cut can be easily removed by running water. Further, when the sheet for workpiece processing according to the present embodiment is used for cutting a workpiece to be cut, penetration of water into the interface between the sheet for workpiece processing and the workpiece to be cut or the interface between the sheet for workpiece processing and the obtained chip can be effectively suppressed by setting the content of the alkoxy (meth) acrylate to 85 mass% or less, the adhesive layer can be suppressed from exhibiting excessive affinity for water. In the present specification, the content (mass%) of the above-mentioned (meth) acrylic acid alkoxy ester means the content of all monomers constituting the acrylic copolymer (a 1). The content (mass%) of the other monomer described later also refers to the content of all the monomers constituting the acrylic copolymer (a 1).
In addition, it is also preferable that the acrylic copolymer (a 1) contains methyl acrylate as a monomer unit constituting the polymer. Since the hydrophilicity of the acrylic copolymer (a 1) can be improved as in the case of the methyl acrylate and the (meth) acrylic acid alkoxy ester, the effect of suppressing the penetration of water and the effect of removing the adhesive agent with running water can be more favorably achieved by containing the acrylic copolymer (a 1) with the (meth) acrylic acid alkoxy ester and the methyl acrylate as monomer units constituting the polymer.
When the acrylic copolymer (a 1) contains methyl acrylate as a monomer unit constituting the polymer, the content of methyl acrylate is preferably 10% by mass or more, particularly preferably 20% by mass or more, and further preferably 30% by mass or more. The content of methyl acrylate is preferably 85 mass% or less. By setting the content of methyl acrylate to the above content, the effect of suppressing the penetration of water and the effect of removing the adhesive agent with flowing water as described above can be more effectively achieved.
When the acrylic copolymer (a 1) contains an alkoxy (meth) acrylate and a methyl acrylate as monomer units constituting the polymer, the total content of the alkoxy (meth) acrylate and the methyl acrylate is preferably 10% by mass or more, particularly preferably 30% by mass or more, and further preferably 50% by mass or more. The total value is preferably 90 mass% or less, and particularly preferably 85 mass% or less. When the total value is within the above range, it is possible to effectively prevent water from penetrating into the interface between the workpiece processing sheet and the workpiece to be cut or the interface between the workpiece processing sheet and the obtained chip, and to easily remove the adhesive adhering to the workpiece by flowing water when the workpiece processing sheet of the present embodiment is used for cutting the workpiece to be cut.
In addition to the above-mentioned alkoxy (meth) acrylate and methyl acrylate, the acrylic copolymer (a 1) preferably further contains a structural unit derived from a functional group-containing monomer.
The functional group-containing monomer of the structural unit of the acrylic copolymer (a 1) is preferably a monomer having a polymerizable double bond in a molecule and a functional group such as a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, an amino group, a substituted amino group, or an epoxy group.
Examples of the hydroxyl group-containing monomer include 2-hydroxyethyl (meth) acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth) acrylate, 3-hydroxypropyl (meth) acrylate, 2-hydroxybutyl (meth) acrylate, 3-hydroxybutyl (meth) acrylate, and 4-hydroxybutyl (meth) acrylate, and these hydroxyl group-containing monomers may be used singly or in combination of two or more.
Examples of the carboxyl group-containing monomer include ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid, maleic acid, itaconic acid, and citraconic acid. These carboxyl group-containing monomers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
Examples of the amino group-containing monomer or the substituted amino group-containing monomer include aminoethyl (meth) acrylate, n-butylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate, and the like. These amino group-containing monomers or substituted amino group-containing monomers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
The acrylic copolymer (a 1) preferably contains 1% by mass or more, particularly preferably 5% by mass or more, and further preferably 10% by mass or more of a structural unit derived from the functional group-containing monomer. The acrylic copolymer (a 1) preferably contains 35% by mass or less, particularly preferably 30% by mass or less of a structural unit derived from the functional group-containing monomer.
In addition to the above-mentioned monomers, the acrylic copolymer (a 1) may contain a structural unit derived from a (meth) acrylic acid ester monomer other than methyl acrylate or a derivative thereof (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "optional monomer").
As the (meth) acrylate monomer, in addition to the alkyl (meth) acrylate having 1 to 20 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, a monomer having an alicyclic structure in the molecule (alicyclic structure-containing monomer), for example, is preferably used.
As the alkyl (meth) acrylate, an alkyl (meth) acrylate having 1 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, for example, methyl methacrylate, ethyl (meth) acrylate, propyl (meth) acrylate, n-butyl (meth) acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth) acrylate, or the like is particularly preferably used, and at least one of methyl methacrylate and n-butyl acrylate is preferably used from the viewpoint of easy adjustment of the adhesive properties. These alkyl (meth) acrylates may be used singly or in combination of two or more.
As the alicyclic structure-containing monomer, for example, cyclohexyl (meth) acrylate, dicyclopentyl (meth) acrylate, adamantyl (meth) acrylate, isobornyl (meth) acrylate, dicyclopentenyl (meth) acrylate, dicyclopentenyloxyethyl (meth) acrylate, and the like are preferably used. These alicyclic structure-containing monomers may be used singly or in combination of two or more.
The acrylic copolymer (a 1) preferably contains 50% by mass or more, particularly preferably 60% by mass or more, and further preferably 70% by mass or more of the above-mentioned optional monomer.

3. Method for manufacturing sheet for processing workpiece
The method for producing the workpiece processing sheet of the present embodiment is not particularly limited, and the workpiece processing sheet of the present embodiment is preferably produced by laminating an adhesive layer on one side of a base material.
The adhesive layer may be laminated on one side of the substrate using known methods. For example, it is preferable to transfer the adhesive layer formed on the release sheet to one side of the substrate. In this case, a coating liquid containing an adhesive composition constituting the adhesive layer and a solvent or a dispersion medium further contained as needed can be prepared by preparing a coating liquid, and applying the coating liquid to a surface of a release sheet subjected to a release treatment (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a "release surface") by a die coater, a curtain coater, a spray coater, a slit coater, a doctor blade coater, or the like, to form a coating film, and drying the coating film. The properties of the coating liquid are not particularly limited as long as the coating liquid can be applied, and may contain a component for forming an adhesive layer as a solute or a component for forming an adhesive layer as a dispersion medium. The release sheet in the laminate may be peeled off as a process material, or may be used to protect the adhesive surface of the adhesive layer until the work piece processing sheet is attached to the cut object.
When the coating liquid for forming the adhesive layer contains a crosslinking agent, the active energy ray-curable polymer (a) or the inactive energy ray-curable polymer in the coating film may be crosslinked with the crosslinking agent by changing the drying conditions (temperature, time, etc.) or by additionally providing a heat treatment, and a crosslinked structure may be formed in the adhesive layer at a desired existing density.

Instead of the method of transferring the adhesive layer formed on the release sheet to the one side of the substrate as described above, the adhesive layer may be formed directly on the substrate. At this time, the adhesive layer is formed by applying the coating liquid for forming the adhesive layer to one side of the substrate to form a coating film and drying the coating film.

Further, when the work processing sheet of the present embodiment is provided with the above-described adhesive layer, the work processing sheet can be used as a dicing die bonding sheet. Further, when the workpiece processing sheet of the present embodiment is provided with the protective film forming layer, the workpiece processing sheet can be used as a protective film forming and cutting sheet.

Therefore, the workpiece processing sheet according to the present embodiment is suitably used for processing using flowing water, and particularly suitably used for cutting accompanied by supplying flowing water to a cutting portion. That is, the workpiece processing sheet of the present embodiment is suitably used as a dicing sheet.

[ method for producing processed workpiece ]
The method for manufacturing a machined workpiece according to one embodiment of the present invention includes the steps of: a bonding step of bonding a surface of the adhesive layer of the workpiece processing sheet, which is opposite to the base material, to a workpiece; a processing step of processing a workpiece on a workpiece processing sheet to obtain a processed workpiece laminated on the workpiece processing sheet; an irradiation step of irradiating the adhesive layer with active energy rays to cure the adhesive layer, thereby reducing the adhesion of the workpiece processing sheet to the processed workpiece; and a separation step of separating the processed workpiece from the workpiece processing sheet irradiated with the active energy rays.
The workpiece processing sheet used in the method for manufacturing a processed workpiece according to the present embodiment can satisfactorily remove an adhesive adhering to a workpiece when the workpiece is processed by running water while suppressing penetration of water into an interface between the workpiece processing sheet and the workpiece or between the workpiece processing sheet and the processed workpiece. Therefore, according to the method for manufacturing a machined workpiece of the present embodiment, the machined workpiece can be efficiently manufactured.
Hereinafter, each step of the method for manufacturing a machined workpiece according to the present embodiment will be described.
(1) Bonding step
The bonding of the workpiece and the workpiece processing sheet in the bonding step can be performed by a conventionally known method. In addition, when cutting the workpiece in the subsequent processing step, it is preferable that the annular frame is bonded to the outer peripheral region of the region bonded to the workpiece in the surface of the adhesive layer side of the workpiece processing sheet. The workpiece to be used may be a desired workpiece corresponding to a machined workpiece to be manufactured, and as a specific example, the above-described workpiece may be used.
(2) Processing procedure
In the machining step, a workpiece may be subjected to a desired machining, for example, back grinding, cutting, or the like. These processes can be performed by conventionally known methods.
In addition, when cutting with a blade using a rotary blade is performed as the above-described processing, generally, a part of the adhesive layer of the workpiece processing sheet is cut together with the workpiece. At this time, the adhesive constituting the adhesive layer may be rolled up by the blade and attached to the work piece. However, as described above, the workpiece processing sheet used in the method for producing a processed workpiece according to the present embodiment can satisfactorily remove the adhering adhesive by flowing water. From this point of view, the processing in the present embodiment is suitably cutting, and particularly, cutting with a blade using a rotary blade.
(3) Irradiation step
In the irradiation step, the irradiation condition of the active energy ray is not limited as long as the adhesion of the workpiece processing sheet to the processed workpiece can be reduced to a desired extent, and the irradiation can be performed by a conventionally known method. Examples of the type of active energy ray used include ionizing radiation, that is, X-rays, ultraviolet rays, electron beams, and the like, and among them, ultraviolet rays that are relatively easy to introduce into the irradiation apparatus are preferable.
(4) Separation process
In the separation step, separation is performed by a method corresponding to the type of processing or the processed workpiece obtained. For example, when dicing is performed as processing and chips obtained by singulating a workpiece by the dicing are obtained, the obtained chips are picked up one by one from a workpiece processing sheet using a conventionally known pickup device. In order to facilitate this pickup, the work processing sheet may be expanded to separate the processed works from each other.
(5) Others
In the method for manufacturing a machined workpiece according to the present embodiment, steps other than the above steps may be provided. For example, a conveying step of conveying the obtained laminate of the workpiece and the workpiece processing sheet to a predetermined position, a storage step of storing the laminate for a predetermined period, and the like may be provided after the bonding step. Further, a mounting step of mounting the obtained machined workpiece on a predetermined base plate or the like may be provided after the separation step.
The embodiments described above are described for easy understanding of the present invention, and are not described for limiting the present invention. Accordingly, each element disclosed in the above embodiments also covers all design changes and equivalents that fall within the technical scope of the present invention.
For example, another layer may be provided between the substrate and the adhesive layer or on the surface of the substrate opposite to the adhesive layer.
