Description

  The present invention is printed using an ink jet printing method and then cured in an exposure and baking process, and is used for display elements for liquid crystals, EL, etc., and electronic circuit boards such as printed wiring boards, flexible wiring boards, and semiconductor package boards. More particularly, the present invention relates to an ink-jet ink suitable for a coverlay for protecting a metal wiring surface forming a predetermined circuit pattern, a solder resist, or the like.

  In recent years, electronic devices have been miniaturized, and electronic circuit boards using lightweight and flexible printed wiring boards are often used. Such an electronic circuit board is formed by, for example, etching a metal layer such as copper to form a wiring portion having a predetermined circuit pattern and coating a cover lay which is a protective film for protecting the metal wiring. It is manufactured by. The current main coating process includes a method in which a cover lay film is bonded to a wiring board by a hot press, and a method in which a cover lay ink is cured by light and heat using a screen printing method or a photolithography method. . In this coating process, there is a problem that when the adhesive component of the film or the ink itself is cured by light or heat, curing shrinkage occurs and the coverlay warps. In particular, with the miniaturization of electronic devices, flexible wiring boards are becoming thinner, and there is a need for a coverlay that does not warp even when coated on thin flexible wiring boards. The demand for sex is also increasing.

  However, suppressing the warpage of the coverlay and increasing the heat resistance are contradictory, and the warpage can be suppressed even with a thin flexible substrate, and increasing the glass transition temperature, which is an indicator of the heat resistance of the cured film. Extremely difficult.

On the other hand, in terms of heat resistance, coverlays using polyimide as a material are commercially available, but they are still expensive, and the applications used in terms of cost are limited.

  Currently, the coverlay film currently used has a low yield in the process of attaching to an electronic circuit board. Compared to photolithography, pattern formation by inkjet method is simpler and can be expected to reduce the amount of material used. Therefore, it is recommended to use it for manufacturing printed wiring boards used in electronic equipment. (For example, refer to JP2003-302642A (Patent Document 1) and JP2005-68280A (Patent Document 2)).

  However, inkjet inks are difficult to eject unless they have a low viscosity, and it is difficult to provide the necessary properties for the coverlay compared to screen printing and photolithography methods that allow printing even at high viscosity.

  Up to now, dicyclopentadiene type epoxy resin-containing ink, silica (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-169677), inorganic filler (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-226461) and filler (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-262080) have been added to warp Reduced epoxy resin compositions have been developed. However, the epoxy resin composition to which these solids are added is unsuitable for inkjet ejection, and inkjet ejection is impossible from the viewpoint of viscosity. Moreover, since it does not have photocurability, versatility is narrow.

  In such circumstances, a protective film that can be cured only by light, has low warpage, has a high glass transition temperature, and has heat resistance is desired, and further, a low-viscosity ink that can be ejected as an inkjet ink is desired.

JP 2003-302642 A JP 2005-68280 A Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-169677 JP 2001-226461 A JP 2004-262080 A

The viscosity of the ink 7 at 25 ° C. was 16.0 mPa · s.
A substrate 7 on which a cured film pattern having a thickness of 10 μm was formed using the ink 7 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1. Moreover, the ink 7 and its cured film were evaluated by the above-mentioned method. The results are shown in Table 1.

  As is clear from the results shown in Table 1, in all of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 according to the present invention, the liquid column at the time of jetting was ejected in the vertical direction, no satellite was generated, and the ink The dischargeability of was good.

  In Comparative Example 4 which does not include the compound containing a phenolic hydroxyl group and the compound (B) containing a compound containing a carboxyl group, the photocurability was poor and the tackiness was present, so the subsequent evaluation was stopped.

  In Comparative Example 1 not containing a dicyclopentadiene type epoxy resin, the warpage was good, but the glass transition temperature was low and the solder heat resistance was poor.

  In Comparative Example 2 in which a bisphenol A type epoxy resin was used instead of the dicyclopentadiene type epoxy resin, the warpage was good, but the glass transition temperature was low and the solder heat resistance was poor.

  In Comparative Example 3 in which dicyclopentadiene type diacrylate was used instead of dicyclopentadiene type epoxy resin, the glass transition temperature was 90 ° C. or higher and the solder heat resistance was good, but the warpage was slightly poor. Warping up was observed at the four edges of the substrate.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to obtain an ink jet ink with reduced ink ejection properties, photocurability and warpage, excellent solder heat resistance, and high glass transition temperature.

  The ink-jet ink of the present invention can be used for display elements and electronic circuit boards, for example.
