Abstract
A curable composition with an enhanced drying window for use in a primary or secondary imaging system is obtainable as the reaction product of an anhydride polymer and at least an ethylenically unsaturated material having one or more hydroxy groups. The anhydride functional polymer is obtainable as the reaction product of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer and an ethylenically unsaturated cyclic anhydride capable of copolymerizing with the unsaturated monomer. The latter reaction is effected in the presence of a free radical initiator with a low hydrogen abstracting capability. This is defined as an initiator having a hydrogen bond dissociation energy of no more than 430 KJ/mole. Suitable initiators are t-amyl peroxy compounds.
Description
CURABLE COMPOSITIONS
The present invention is directed to compositions which are thermally curable and/or curable by application of radiation, for example ultra violet (UV) radiation.
Such compositions are typically used in circuit board applications, either as etch resists, or when cured in combination with epoxy resins and the like, as solder resists.
They also find application in deep chemical etching and graphic arts.
Typically, such materials are prepared by reaction of styrene with maleic anhydride in the presence of a free radical initiator. The resultant styrene/maleic anhydride resin is then reacted with hydroxy ethyl acrylate (flEA) or the like in the presence of a catalyst to produce the curable composition.
One problem with such curable systems is the drying window. The temperature at which the composition needs to be dried to enable clean development with aqueous alkali is lower than is optimally desirable. This problem has now been overcome by the present invention which allows the anhydride functional polymer to be prepared with increased linearity and a narrower molecular weight distribution. This manifests itself in a reduction in the polydispersibility and viscosity of the polymer. This is achieved by preparing the anhydride functional polymer using a free radical initiator which is a poor hydrogen abstractor.
Thus, the present invention now provides a curable composition obtainable as the reaction product of an anhydride functional polymer and at least one ethylenically unsaturated material having one or more hydroxy groups, the anhydride functional polymer being obtainable as the reaction product of at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer material with a cyclic anhydride material capable of reaction with the ethylenically unsaturated monomer material, in the presence of a free radical initiator which produces initiating radicals having a hydrogen bond dissociation energy of no more than 430 KJ/mole.
Curable compositions according to the present invention have greatly improved drying windows, relative to conventional systems, when used in a primary or secondary imaging system.
The compositions according to the present invention can be used on their own as etch resists. When used as solder resists, they may be presented in single pack form in which the composition is in admixture with an epoxy resin or the like, or they can be presented in a two-pack form in which the epoxy resin or equivalent is sold separately to be mixed with a composition of the present invention by the customer before use.
Initiators that produce radicals with a hydrogen bond dissociation energy of more than 430 KJ/Mole, for exarnple methyl, t-butoxy, alkoxy and phenyl radicals are highly reactive and good hydrogen abstractors. These initiators produce anhydride functional polymers with a high polydispersivity.
Conversely, initiators that produce radicals with a hydrogen bond dissociation of 430KJ,Mole or less, such as ethyl, t-butyl and isopropyl radicals have now been found produce anhydride functional polymers with a much lower polydispersivity.
The hydrogen abstraction ability of the free radical initator used in the preparation of the anhydride functional polymer can be expressed numerically in terms of its hydrogen bond dissociation energy which must be no greater than 430 KJ/mole.
However, preferably, this bond dissociation energy is 420 KJimole or less, more preferably 410 KJ/mole or less.
For this use, the tertiary amyl peroxides are particularly preferred as free radical initiators. Mixtures of any of these alone or with one or more initiators of another type, whether or not also producing radicals with a hydrogen bond dissociation energy of 430KJ/mole may also be employed.
Other free radical initiators which have low hydrogen abstraction capability as indicated by a bond disassociation energy of no more than 430 KJ/mole are the azonitrile initiators, although sometimes these tend to produce products with higher levels of residual monomers and darker colours when compared with tertiary amyl peroxides. Mixtures of any of these alone or with one or more initiators of another type, whether or not also producing radicals with a hydrogen bond dissociation energy of 430KJ/mole may also be employed.
The ethylenically unsaturated monomer material which is reacted within the cyclic anhydride material is preferably selected from one or more (meth) acrylic and/or one or more vinyl monomers. Typically, suitable acrylate monomers be chosen from alkyl acrylates, typically having from I to 12 carbon atoms in acrylates, cycloalkyl acrylates typically having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms in the cycloalkyl group and other miscellaneous ether and other functional groups. In any acrylate of the foregoing and in any of the following specific examples of such materials, any acrylate group is optionally replaceable by methacrylate.
Suitable alkyl acrylates include acrylic acid, methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, n-propyl acrylate, iso-propyl acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, sec-butyl acrylate, tert-butyl acrylate, 2ethylhexyl acrylate, hexyl acrylate, octyl acrylate, lauryl acrylate, isobornyl acrylate and dodecyl acrylate.
A typical cycloalkyl acrylate is cyclohexyl acrylate.
Suitable miscellaneous ether and other functional acrylates include di(ethyleneglycol) ethyl ether acrylate, di(ethylene glycol) 2-ethylhexyl ether acrylate, 2-methoxy ethylacrylate, 3-methoxy propyl acrylate and phenyl acrylate.
Mixtures of any of the foregoing may be employed, whether of the same class or different classes.
Suitable vinyl monomers may be aliphatic or aromatic. In the case of the aliphatic types, typical examples are vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinyl propionoate, vinyl pyrrolidone, vinyl versatate, vinylidene di chloride, vinyl flouride, vinylidene di fluoride, 1-butene and 1 -pentene etc.
Suitable aromatic vinyl monomers include styrene, vinyl toluene, methyl styrene, ss- methyl styrene, 3-methyl styrene, 4-methylstyrene and vinyl napthalene.
On the other hand, the cyclic anhydride which is reacted with the ethylenically unsaturated monomer material to produce the anhydride functional polymer may for example be selected from maleic anhydride, citraconic anhydride and itaconic anhydride and mixtures thereof.
Preferably, the relative amounts of the total ethylenically unsaturated monomer material and total cyclic anhydride material are in a weight ratio of the total ethylenically unsaturated monomer materials to the total cyclic anhydride of from 3 1 to 1:1.5, more preferably from 2:1 to 1:1.25, especially from 1.5:1 to 1.1:1, for example about 1:1.
The anhydride functional polymer preferably has an average molecular weight of from 700 to 100,000 when determined by the method of GPC analysis using a Perkin
Elmer LC-30 RI Detector with a Perkin Elmer Liquid Chromatograph Series 10 Pump attached to a HPLC 360 Autosampler from Kontron, in conjunction with P.E. Nelson
Systems Software Version 5.1. The GPC results are obtained by injecting 2% NVC solutions of the samples on to lx30cm PLGel 10 > mixed ss linear column at 35-C with a flow rate of Iml/min analar tetrahydrofuran (THF). The calibration mix consists of polystyrene standards of molecular weights: 2750000, 220500, 11600 and 970. The molecular weight range of the column is 10000000 to 1000 and the GPC results are processed between these limits.
The anhydride functional polymer is reacted with at least one ethylenically unsaturated material having one or more hydroxy groups and this may be selected from a wide range of aliphatic or aromatic hydroxy functional(meth) acrylates. Suitable hydroxy functional acrylates (wherein the equivalent methacrylate is to be understood also to be recited) which may be employed, include 2-hydroxy ethyl acrylate, 3-chloro-2hydroxypropyl acrylate, 2-hydroxy-1-methylethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate, 3-hydroxypropyl acrylate, 2,3-dihydroxypropyl acrylate, 2-hydroxybutyl acrlate and 4hydroxybutyl acrylate.
To produce the final reaction product, as well as reacting the ethylenically unsaturated material having one or more hydroxy groups with the anhydride functional polymer, it is also possible to include in the reaction mixture, one or more amines and/or one or more saturated functional polyols and/or one or more imides with a polymerisable double bond. This offers the additional advantages of improvement in heat stability (particularly in the case of amines) and further widening of the pre-dry window (particularly in the case of polyols).
When one or more amines are included in the second stage reaction, these are preferably selected from one or more primary or secondary aliphatic or aromatic amines, for example mono-amines and diamines in which the or both amine groups (as appropriate) is attached to at least one substituent selected from C1.6 (straight or branched) alkyl groups and phenyl groups, which alkyl or phenyl groups may themselves be optionally substituted by one or more non-reactive substituents. Typical amines for this purpose include ethylamine, diethyamine, propylamine, diaminopropane, ethylene diamine and butylamine.
The saturated functional polyol(s) can preferably be selected from one or more aliphatic or aromatic (including mixed aryl/alkyl type) polyalcohols, including straight or branched alkyl polyols having from 2 to 8 carbon atoms, and cyclic alkane polyols having from 2 to 8 carbon atoms. Typical examples are methanol, ethanol, propanol and cyclohexanol.
The imide(s) with a polymerisable double bond can be selected from maleimide, 3-maleimidopropionic acid, N-hydroxy succinimide ester, 4-(maleimidomethyl) -1cyclohexane carboxylic acid, N-hydroxysuccinimide, N-methylmaleimide, Nethylmaleimide and derivatives thereof, and mixtures of any of these.
In the second stage of reaction, the relative amounts of the anhydride functional polymer and the ethylenically unsaturated material having one or more hydroxy groups are preferably such that from 25 to 100 mole % of the anhydride groups, more preferably from 50 to 90 mole%, typically from 70 to 80 mole% are mono-esterified with the ethylenically unsaturated alcohol.
When saturated polyol(s) are included then their amounts relative to the anhydride functional polymer and the ethylenically unsaturated material are preferably from 5 to 70 mole%, more preferably from 10 to 50 mole%, especially from 15 to 35 mole%.
When amine(s) are also included, then their total amount relative to the anhydride functional polymer and the ethylenically unsaturated material having one or hydroxy groups are preferably such that from 2 to 50 mole%, more preferably form 5 to 30 mole% of the anhydride groups react with the amine(s).
A wide range of materials can be used for the ethylenically unsaturated material having one or more hydroxy groups which may be selected from one or more of hydroxy functional materials having a functional group capable of being cured on exposure to radiation, e.g. UV light, for example hydroxy ethyl acrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, and mixtures thereof.
The second stage of reaction, i.e reaction of the anhydride functional polymer with at least the ethylenically unsaturated material having one or more hydroxy groups is preferably carried out in the presence of a catalyst, for example l-methylimidazole, sodium acetate or lithium acetate, or mixture thereof.
In the two-pack form, the polymer can be cured by mixing with an epoxy resin containing at least two epoxy groups per molecule. Examples include novolac, bisphenol, triphenylmethane, as well as amino-copolymerised - and other epoxy resins.
