- the glass-reinforced epoxy board was kept at about 100°C by placing it on a hot plate (or by heating it with a far-infrared heater or the like) , the resin left on the glass-reinforced epoxy board was allowed to swell with a solvent such as PS-1 (manufactured by Dai-ichi Kogyo Seiyaku Co., Ltd.) or 7360 (manufactured by Loctite Corporation), and then scraped off with a spatula. The solder left on the glass-reinforced epoxy board was removed by use of a solder-absorbing braided wire. The time required for this repairing operation was within 3 minutes, which was sufficiently short from a practical point of view.

- the resulting mounting structure exhibited acceptable repairability, but did not pass a heat shock test because continuity was lost at less than 1,000 cycles.
- Example 1 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated except that the amount of the acrylated amine oligomer used as a plasticizer in Example 1 was altered to 120 parts by weight The resulting mounting structure exhibited acceptable repairability, but did not pass a heat shock test because continuity was lost at less than 1,000 cycles.
- Example 1 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated except that the amount of the mixture of alkyl glycidyl ethers of 12 to 14 carbon atoms used in Example 1 was altered as shown below. The resulting mounting structures passed a heat shock test, and their repair time was within 3 minutes.
- Example 6 0 parts by weight .
- Example 7 2.7 parts by weight.
- Example 8 5.3 parts by weight
- Example 9 20.0 parts by weight Comparative Example 3
- Example 1 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated except that the amount of the mixture of alkyl glycidyl ethers of 12 to 14 carbon atoms used in Example 1 was altered to 40 parts by weight.
- the resulting mounting structure exhibited acceptable repairability, but did not pass a heat shock test because continuity was lost at less than 1,000 cycles.
- Example 1 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated except that the acrylated amine oligomer used as a plasticizer in Example 1 was replaced by each of the compounds shown below.
- the resulting mounting structures passed a heat shock test, and their repair time was within 3 minutes.
- Example 11 Isobornyl acrylate.
- Example 12 2 -Hydroxyethy1 methacry1ate
- Example 1 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated except that the epoxy adduct of amine used as a curing agent in Example 1 was replaced by the epoxy adduct of imidazole.
- the resulting mounting structure passed a heat shock test, and its repair time was within 3 . minutes.
- Example 1 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated except that, in place of the thermosetting resin composition used in Example 1, an adhesive (TB3006B; manufactured by Three Pond Co., Ltd.) comprising acrylate oligomers, acrylate monomers and a photopolymerization initiator was used and cured by exposure to light through the gap between the semiconductor device and the circuit board and by the application of heat.
- an adhesive (TB3006B; manufactured by Three Pond Co., Ltd.) comprising acrylate oligomers, acrylate monomers and a photopolymerization initiator was used and cured by exposure to light through the gap between the semiconductor device and the circuit board and by the application of heat.
- this adhesive was used, the semiconductor device could be easily removed in its semicured state. After the adhesive was completely cured, the resulting mounting structure was subjected to a heat shock test. Its heat shock properties were unacceptable because continuity was lost at less than 1,000 cycles.
- Example 1 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated except that in place of the thermosetting resin composition used in Example 1, an epoxy resin sealant (SA-51-2; manufactured by Asahi Kaken Co., Ltd.) was applied in the same manner as in Example 1 and cured by heating at 100° for 90 seconds. In a heat shock test, the resulting mounting structure exhibited the same degree of reliability as in Example 1. However, an attempt was made to separate the semiconductor device by the application of heat for repairing purposes, but in vain. The full scope of the invention is measured by the claims .
- SA-51-2 epoxy resin sealant manufactured by Asahi Kaken Co., Ltd.
