Description

Thermally curable conductive bonding film with excellent bending property and step followability, and manufacturing method thereof}

This specification relates to a method of manufacturing a thermosetting conductive adhesive film with excellent bendability and step followability, and specifically, by controlling the resin flow after heat pressing with respect to a predetermined thickness of the conductive layer before heat pressing, as well as the resin flow characteristics. The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a thermosetting conductive adhesive film having excellent properties such as step followability and bendability.

As semiconductor integrated circuit integration technology and surface mounting technology for directly mounting small chip components develop in the electronics industry technology field and electronic equipment becomes miniaturized, there is a need to facilitate easy mounting even in more complex and narrow spaces. In response to these demands, flexible printed circuit boards (FPCB) are being used. The demand for FPCB is increasing as the use of mobile phones, DVDs, digital cameras, PDPs, etc. increases rapidly due to technological advancements.

Conductive bonding films are commonly used in FPCBs for purposes such as electrically connecting circuits and metal reinforcement plates. This conductive bonding film is usually used by forming a coated layer of a conductive adhesive composition containing resin and conductive particles on a release film, and is bonded to an adherend such as a printed wiring board of an FPCB through a heat press process. It is heat cured.

However, during this heat press process, resin flow or stains may occur where the resin component in the conductive adhesive composition flows out. Existing patent documents disclose that the smaller the resin flow, the better because such resin flow or stains affect the electrical characteristics of electronic devices (e.g., Patent Documents 1 to 3).

In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the conductive adhesive film includes a conductive layer containing resin and conductive fine particles, and when the thickness of the conductive layer before heat pressing is 60 μm, the conductive adhesive film is heated at 150° C. and 2 MPa. , provides a conductive adhesive film having a resin flow of 40 to 200 μm when heat pressed with an adherend under conditions of 30 minutes.

Additionally, in exemplary embodiments of the present invention, a method of manufacturing the above-described conductive adhesive film includes coating the conductive adhesive composition on a release film; and drying the coated release film to remove the organic solvent through, for example, hot air drying, thereby producing a semi-cured film.

Therefore, the film can be usefully used in FPCB.

Term Definition

In this specification, bendability refers to evaluating the degree to which appearance deformation (color change) and/or cracks do not occur when the conductive layer of the conductive adhesive film is separated from the release film and repeatedly bent (i.e., repeated bending is performed). Since the FPCB itself is flexible and bends, the material used for it also fundamentally requires bending performance.

In this specification, step followability or filling ability refers to the degree to which the conductive adhesive composition can fill (fill) a step or the like. For example, when the adhesive composition of a conductive adhesive film that connects a metal reinforcement plate such as SUS and an FPCB fills a step equal to the thickness of the coverlay that exists on the outermost part of the FPCB through a press process, the extent to which the step can be filled is determined. it means. If the step portion equal to the coverlay thickness is not filled properly, the ground portion of the SUS and FPCB are not connected and cannot be energized. This is because the noise coming from the FPCB circuit is canceled out through the ground part. In addition, fillability (step followability) is important because if it is not filled, it may lead to poor heat resistance in the subsequent process (solder process or reflow process).

In this specification, resin flow means that the resin component of the conductive adhesive composition of the conductive adhesive film flows out during the heat press process.

In this specification, thermosetting type refers to cases where the thermosetting resin itself is used and cases where the thermoplastic resin is used together with a curing agent or additionally a curing catalyst to be thermally cured in the final conductive adhesive film product. That is, the thermosetting conductive adhesive composition does not necessarily include only thermosetting resins, and may also include thermoplastic resins.

Description of Exemplary Implementations

Exemplary implementations of the present invention are described in detail below.

There is a patent such as Patent Document 1 that seeks to suppress resin flow, but as a result of careful analysis and study of the patents such as Patent Document 1, the present inventors identified the following matters and completed further research to complete the present invention.

Resin flow depends on a wide variety of factors, especially the thickness of the conductive adhesive composition layer (conductive layer) before heat pressing, the type of resin component used in the conductive adhesive composition, the degree of curing according to the content of the curing agent, and the type of conductive fine particles used together. It varies depending on the content, etc., and in particular, the thickness of the conductive adhesive composition layer (conductive layer) before heat pressing, that is, the thickness of the dried film after coating the conductive adhesive composition, seems to have a great influence on the resin flow. Therefore, the present inventors believe that it is not realistic to say that resin flow can be suppressed without controlling other conditions such as the thickness of the conductive layer before heat pressing by using dendrite-shaped particles with a specific particle size distribution as in Patent Document 1. It was confirmed by

Moreover, according to the results of the present inventors' research, if resin flow is surprisingly excessively suppressed, additional problems may occur. In other words, the present inventors found that when the thickness of the conductive layer before heat pressing is 60㎛ and the resin flow is too low or high, additional problems such as bendability, adhesion, filling (step followability), and long-term reliability deterioration occur. I found out.

Moreover, the object for which resin flow (staining) was evaluated in Patent Document 1 is actually a thin electromagnetic wave shielding film with a conductive layer thickness before heat pressing of less than 20㎛ (the examples of Patent Document 1 have a conductive layer thickness before heat pressing of 10㎛). (targeted for), unlike the case of such thin electromagnetic wave shielding films, the conductive bonding film (CBF) usually has a thickness of 60㎛. There has been no study on the effect of resin flow in such a conductive bonding film (CBF) on the physical properties of the conductive bonding film (CBF).

Accordingly, in exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the conductive adhesive film includes a conductive layer containing resin and dendrite-shaped conductive particles, and when the thickness of the conductive layer before heat pressing is 60㎛, the conductive adhesive film is A conductive adhesive film having a resin flow of 40 to 200 μm when heat pressed with an adherend under conditions of 150°C, 2 MPa, and 30 minutes is provided.

In a conductive adhesive film where the thickness of the conductive layer is 60㎛ before heat pressing, when the resin flow after heat pressing is 40~200㎛, bendability, adhesion, filling (step followability), and long-term reliability are excellent, and it is also used in electronic devices. There is no significant effect on the electrical characteristics of the resin flow.

As can be seen from the experimental results described later, if the resin flow is less than 40㎛, bendability may be reduced, fillability (step followability) may be reduced, adhesion may be reduced due to overcuring, and long-term adhesion at high temperatures may be reduced (long-term reliability reduced). You can. In addition, when the resin flow exceeds 200㎛, deterioration of bendability, deterioration of filling ability (step followability), deterioration of adhesion, and deterioration of long-term adhesion at high temperatures (deterioration of long-term reliability) may occur.

In an exemplary embodiment, the resin flow is 40 ㎛ or more, 50 ㎛ or more, 60 ㎛ or more, 70 ㎛ or more, 80 ㎛ or more, 90 ㎛ or more, 100 ㎛ or more, 110 ㎛ or more, 120 ㎛ or more, 130 ㎛ or more. , may be 140 μm or more, 150 μm or more, 160 μm or more, 170 μm or more, 180 μm or more, or 190 μm or more. or 200㎛ or less, 190㎛ or less, 180㎛ or less, 170㎛ or less, 160㎛ or less, 150㎛ or less, 140㎛ or less, 130㎛ or less, 120㎛ or less, 110㎛ or less, 100㎛ or less, 90㎛ or less, 80 It may be ㎛ or less, 70 ㎛ or less, 60 ㎛ or less, or 50 ㎛ or less.

The resin flow value at the thickness of 60㎛ of the conductive layer before heat pressing described above can be obtained by appropriately selecting the type and content of the resin and curing agent known to those skilled in the art, and the type and content of the conductive fine particles.

In an exemplary embodiment, the resin may be a known thermosetting resin or thermoplastic resin. In addition, a known curing agent or an additional curing catalyst may be further included.

In a non-limiting example, the thermoplastic resin may be, for example, a modified polyester resin containing a carboxyl group, and may include a curing agent such as an epoxy-based resin for thermal curing of the final conductive layer.

In a non-limiting example, the thermosetting resin may be a phenolic resin such as a polyurethane resin, an acrylic resin, or a resol resin. These thermosetting resins may also contain known curing agents for additional curing.

In an exemplary embodiment, the content of conductive fine particles in the conductive adhesive composition may be adjusted to 50% by weight to 75% by weight based on the total weight of the composition. If it is added in excess beyond the above range, the resin component will be excessively reduced and broken during the film forming process, resulting in cracks. Additionally, if it is less than the above range, it may be difficult to secure appropriate conductivity.

In non-limiting examples, it may be included, for example, at least 50% by weight, at least 55% by weight, at least 60% by weight, or at least 65% by weight. Alternatively, it may be included in 75% by weight or less, 70% by weight or less, 65% by weight or less, 60% by weight or less, or 55% by weight or less.

In an exemplary embodiment, the conductive fine particles may be one or more of gold, silver, copper, nickel, iron, silver-coated copper powder, and silver-coated nickel powder having excellent electrical conductivity, and considering electrical conductivity or economic efficiency, silver may be used. Coated copper powder may be preferred.

In an exemplary embodiment, the conductive fine particles may have a particle size of 5 to 30 ㎛, preferably 10 to 20 ㎛. By adjusting the particle size in this way, the problem of not being able to obtain sufficient electrical conductivity compared to the input amount due to the small particle size and low electrical contact formation rate is prevented, and the large particle size prevents uniformity due to the size of the powder being too large compared to the thickness of the adhesive film. The problem of not being able to obtain a conductive adhesive film with the same physical properties can be prevented.

In an exemplary embodiment, the conductive fine particles may be dendrite-shaped conductive fine particles having a particle size distribution of D50 and D90 as in Patent Document 1, but the resin flow compared to the thickness of the conductive layer before heat pressing as described above may be used. As long as it is satisfied, it is not limited to the dendrite-shaped conductive fine particles.
