Technical Field
The invention relates to the technology in the 5G field, in particular to a bismaleimide composition, a semi-cured film and a copper foil substrate.
Background
With the increasing demand of people for mobile data, 5G is more and more widely applied in the fields of Internet of things, artificial intelligence, smart cities and the like due to the characteristics of large transmission data, high transmission rate and low time delay, and therefore, the human society is continuously accelerated to enter the 'everything interconnection' era. With the continuous development of 5G and the continuous development of PCB to high precision and high density, the requirements on CCL are continuously improved, and CCL has the characteristics of low dielectric constant, low dielectric loss, high TG, low thermal expansion coefficient and the like.
At present, the CCL board capable of meeting the application characteristics is mainly a BT-type board, however, the high-end printed board applied to 5G is monopoly by Europe and America, and the BT-type high-end printed board used in China is mainly imported. With the continuous development of 5G, breaking through the technical blockade of BT products becomes imperative. Among them, chinese patent CN110997755A discloses a resin composition containing a maleimide compound (a) represented by the following formula (1) and a cyanate ester compound, which has a low thermal expansion coefficient and a high glass transition temperature, but the dielectric constant of 4.41 is still high for IC package carrier, and the dielectric properties of the substrate are still in room for improvement. Therefore, there is a need for improvements over existing maleimide compounds.
