Description

  The present invention provides a photosensitive composition capable of efficiently forming a high-definition permanent pattern, a photosensitive film, a photosensitive laminate, a permanent pattern forming method using the photosensitive laminate, and a permanent pattern forming method. The present invention relates to a printed circuit board on which a pattern is formed.

Conventionally, when a permanent pattern such as a solder resist pattern is formed, a photosensitive film in which a photosensitive layer is formed by applying and drying a photosensitive composition on a support has been used.
As the method for producing the permanent pattern, for example, a laminate is formed by laminating the photosensitive film on a substrate such as a copper-clad laminate on which the permanent pattern is formed, and the photosensitive layer in the laminate is formed on the photosensitive layer. The permanent pattern is formed by exposing to light, developing the photosensitive layer after the exposure to form a pattern, and then performing a curing process or the like.

In the photosensitive composition, even if the resulting resist pattern is immersed in a strong acid solution or transferred many times for a predetermined time between a low temperature and a high temperature, cracks and peelings occur. Crack resistance that does not occur is required.
Therefore, for the purpose of improving the crack resistance, a photosensitive composition for a solder resist using ε-caprolactam-modified dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate (DPCA) as a polymerizable compound has been proposed (Patent Documents 1 to 3). 4).
However, as described above, there is a problem that the use of DPCA alone results in low sensitivity, or depending on the photopolymerization initiator used, the raw storage stability is deteriorated.

On the other hand, a photosensitive composition for a solder resist using an oxime derivative as a highly sensitive photopolymerization initiator has been proposed (see Patent Documents 5 to 6).
However, in the above proposal, since dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate (DPHA), which is not a modified product, is used as the polymerizable compound, the distance between the covalent bonds of the polymerizable groups is short, and the film is formed with the photosensitive composition. There was a problem that the elongation after exposure baking was poor.

  In any of the above proposals, the resolution is not sufficient. In particular, when a film is formed from the photosensitive composition, there is a problem that the resolution after lapse of time tends to be extremely deteriorated.

  Therefore, the photosensitive composition and the photosensitive composition are capable of forming a high-definition permanent pattern efficiently, with high sensitivity and high resolution, and excellent raw storage, elongation after exposure baking, and resolution over time after lamination. Film, a pattern formation method using the photosensitive film, and a printed circuit board on which a permanent pattern is formed by the permanent pattern formation method have not yet been provided, and further improvement and development are desired at present. is there.

<Evaluation of elongation after film exposure baking>
The substrate was prepared by subjecting the surface of a copper-clad laminate (copper thickness 12 μm) with through-holes of 6 mmφ to a chemical polishing treatment. A laminator (manufactured by Taisei Laminator, MODEL-8B-720-PH) was peeled off on the copper-clad laminate while peeling off the protective film in the photosensitive film so that the photosensitive layer of the photosensitive film was in contact with the copper-clad laminate. ) To prepare a photosensitive laminate in which the copper-clad laminate, the photosensitive layer, and the polyethylene terephthalate film (support) are laminated in this order, and an exposure apparatus (HMW532D, manufactured by Oak Manufacturing Co., Ltd.). The film was exposed at 200 mJ / cm ² and the support was peeled off, and then heated at 170 ° C. for 1 hour to obtain an evaluation sample. A 2 mm diameter needle was pushed into the through hole portion of this evaluation sample, and the length to be pushed until it was broken was measured.

<Evaluation of the shortest development time>
The support is peeled off from the photosensitive laminate, and a 1 mass% sodium carbonate aqueous solution at 30 ° C. is sprayed on the entire surface of the photosensitive layer on the copper clad laminate at a pressure of 0.15 MPa. The time required from the start until the photosensitive layer on the copper-clad laminate was dissolved and removed was measured, and this was taken as the shortest development time.

<Evaluation of sensitivity>
With respect to the photosensitive layer in the prepared photosensitive laminate, a pattern forming apparatus described in JP-A-2006-30966 having a 405 nm laser light source as the light irradiating means is used in an amount of 0.1 mJ / cm ² to 2 Double exposure was performed by irradiating light having different light energy amounts up to 100 mJ / cm ² at ^½ times intervals to cure a part of the photosensitive layer. After standing at room temperature for 10 minutes, a 1 mass% sodium carbonate aqueous solution at 30 ° C. is sprayed over the entire surface of the photosensitive layer on the copper clad laminate at a spray pressure of 0.15 MPa for twice the shortest development time. The uncured area was dissolved and removed, and the thickness of the remaining cured area was measured. Subsequently, the relationship between the light irradiation amount and the thickness of the cured layer was plotted to obtain a sensitivity curve. From the sensitivity curve, the amount of light energy when the thickness of the cured region was the same 30 μm as that of the photosensitive layer before exposure was determined as the amount of light energy necessary for curing the photosensitive layer.

<Evaluation of raw preservation>
The photosensitive laminate was sealed in a moisture-proof bag (black polyethylene cylindrical bag, film thickness: 80 μm, water vapor transmission rate: 25 g / m ² · 24 hr or less) at 24 ° C. and 60% RH, and then 40 ° C. After the storage for 3 days, the shortest development time is measured by the same method as in the evaluation of the shortest development time, and the value obtained by the evaluation of the shortest development time is t ₀ , after the storage for 3 days. The value of t ₁ / t ₀ was calculated with the value of the shortest development time at t being t ₁ . The closer the obtained value is to 1, the better the raw storage stability.

<Evaluation of resolution>
The photosensitive laminate was prepared under the same method and conditions as the evaluation method for the shortest development time and allowed to stand at room temperature (23 ° C., 55% RH) for 10 minutes. From the photosensitive layer of the obtained photosensitive laminate, exposure of each line width is performed in increments of 1 μm from line / space = 1/1 to a line width of 10 to 100 μm using the pattern forming apparatus. The exposure amount at this time is the amount of light energy necessary for curing the photosensitive layer. After standing at room temperature for 10 minutes, the photosensitive layer on the copper-clad laminate was sprayed with a 1% by weight aqueous sodium carbonate solution at 30 ° C. at a spray pressure of 0.15 MPa for twice the shortest development time, Dissolve and remove uncured areas. The surface of the copper-clad laminate with a cured resin pattern obtained in this way is observed with an optical microscope, and the cured resin pattern line is free of irregularities such as lumps and twists, and the minimum line width that allows space formation is measured. This is the resolution. The smaller the numerical value, the better the resolution.

<Resolution evaluation over 1 day after lamination>
After the preparation of the photosensitive laminate, the resolution was measured after being left in a dark place for 24 hours.
