Description

本発明は、エポキシ樹脂用硬化剤として用いられ、エポキシ樹脂組成物中での分散性に優れ、硬化物の線膨張係数を低下させて、硬化物の信頼性を高めることのできるエポキシ樹脂硬化用微粒子に関する。 The present invention is used as a curing agent for epoxy resins, has excellent dispersibility in an epoxy resin composition, reduces the linear expansion coefficient of cured products, and can improve the reliability of cured products. Concerning fine particles.

エポキシ樹脂は、接着剤、シール剤、コーティング剤等の様々な用途に用いられている。一般に、エポキシ樹脂には、硬化反応を進行させるための成分として硬化剤が、また、硬化性を向上させるための成分として硬化促進剤が添加される。特に、硬化剤又は硬化促進剤とエポキシ樹脂とを一液にするために、潜在性をもたせた硬化剤又は硬化促進剤が多用されている。 Epoxy resins are used in various applications such as adhesives, sealants, and coating agents. Generally, a curing agent is added to the epoxy resin as a component for causing the curing reaction to proceed, and a curing accelerator is added as a component for improving the curability. In particular, in order to make the curing agent or the curing accelerator and the epoxy resin into one liquid, a latent curing agent or curing accelerator is frequently used.

例えば、特許文献1には、所定の粉末状アミン化合物(A)をコアとし、上記アミン化合物(A)とエポキシ樹脂(B)の反応生成物をシェルとしてなる硬化剤(I)と、所定量のエポキシ樹脂(B)とからなる一液性エポキシ樹脂配合品用マスターバッチ型硬化剤が記載されている。しかしながら、特許文献1に記載の一液性エポキシ樹脂配合品用マスターバッチ型硬化剤は、低温での硬化性に劣ることが問題である。近年、特に電子機器分野においては、回路の高密度化に対応し、接続信頼性を向上させるために、硬化剤の貯蔵安定性を損なわずに低温での硬化性を一層向上させることが強く求められている。 For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a curing agent (I) having a predetermined powdery amine compound (A) as a core and a reaction product of the amine compound (A) and the epoxy resin (B) as a shell, and a predetermined amount. A master batch type curing agent for a one-component epoxy resin blended product comprising the epoxy resin (B) is described. However, the master batch type curing agent for a one-component epoxy resin compounded product described in Patent Document 1 has a problem that it is inferior in curability at a low temperature. In recent years, especially in the field of electronic equipment, there is a strong demand to further improve curability at low temperatures without compromising the storage stability of the curing agent in order to cope with higher circuit density and improve connection reliability. It has been.

また、特許文献2には、アミンアダクト(A)と低分子アミン化合物(B)を主成分とする所定のエポキシ樹脂用硬化剤(C)からなるコアの表面を合成樹脂および/または無機酸化物からなるシェルによって被覆されている構造を持つマイクロカプセル型エポキシ樹脂用硬化剤が記載されている。しかしながら、特許文献2に記載のマイクロカプセル型エポキシ樹脂用硬化剤では、特に電子機器分野において必要とされる、ばらつきの少ない小さい平均粒子径を実現することは困難である。 In Patent Document 2, the surface of the core made of a predetermined curing agent for epoxy resin (C) mainly composed of an amine adduct (A) and a low molecular amine compound (B) is formed on a synthetic resin and / or an inorganic oxide. A microcapsule type epoxy resin curing agent having a structure covered with a shell made of is described. However, with the microcapsule-type epoxy resin curing agent described in Patent Document 2, it is difficult to achieve a small average particle size with little variation, which is required particularly in the field of electronic equipment.

更に、特許文献1及び2に記載のエポキシ樹脂用硬化剤は、アミン系硬化剤とエポキシ樹脂とを途中段階まで反応させて得られた粉体であり、アミン系硬化剤とエポキシ樹脂との接触界面が硬化しているにすぎない。そのため、このようなエポキシ樹脂用硬化剤は時間の経過とともに硬化反応が進行しやすく、充分な貯蔵安定性を得ることは困難である。 Furthermore, the curing agent for epoxy resins described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 is a powder obtained by reacting an amine curing agent and an epoxy resin to an intermediate stage, and contact between the amine curing agent and the epoxy resin. The interface is only cured. For this reason, such a curing agent for an epoxy resin is likely to undergo a curing reaction with time, and it is difficult to obtain sufficient storage stability.

そこで、硬化反応を途中段階まで進行させることによって得られるエポキシ樹脂用硬化剤ではなく、アミン系硬化剤からなるコア成分を、ラジカル重合性単量体を重合させて得られる重合体からなるシェル成分に内包したエポキシ樹脂用硬化剤が検討されている。例えば、特許文献3には、芯成分が水に対する溶解度が10重量パーセント以下であるアミン系硬化剤を含み、殻壁成分がラジカル重合性単量体を主重合成分にしてラジカル重合法により反応させて形成された重合体であるアミン系硬化剤のマイクロカプセルが記載さている。
しかしながら、特許文献3に記載のマイクロカプセルにおいては、コア成分としてイミダゾール化合物を用いた場合、イミダゾール化合物がラジカルを補足するため、ラジカル重合が途中で停止してしまうことがあった。このように不完全な状態でラジカル重合が停止すると、未反応のラジカル重合性単量体が残留し、例えば、エポキシ樹脂組成物の硬化物の信頼性が低下する等の不具合を生じることが問題であった。
Therefore, a shell component composed of a polymer obtained by polymerizing a radical polymerizable monomer with a core component composed of an amine-based curing agent, not a curing agent for an epoxy resin obtained by proceeding the curing reaction to an intermediate stage. A curing agent for epoxy resin encapsulated in is being studied. For example, in Patent Document 3, the core component contains an amine-based curing agent having a solubility in water of 10 weight percent or less, and the shell wall component is reacted by a radical polymerization method using a radical polymerizable monomer as a main polymerization component. A microcapsule of an amine-based curing agent, which is a polymer formed in this manner, is described.
However, in the microcapsules described in Patent Document 3, when an imidazole compound is used as a core component, the imidazole compound supplements radicals, and radical polymerization sometimes stops in the middle. When radical polymerization is stopped in such an incomplete state, unreacted radically polymerizable monomer remains, resulting in problems such as reduced reliability of the cured product of the epoxy resin composition. Met.
