- This invention provides alkoxylated acetylenic diols that act as surfactants for water based compositions of the following structure:
- r and t are, preferably the same, 1 or 2, (n+m) is 1 to 30 and (p+q) is 1 to 30.
- the EO and PO units may be distributed along the alkylene oxide chain in blocks of EOs and POs or randomly.
- This invention also relates to processes for the manufacture of certain alkoxylated acetylenic diols.
- Another embodiment of the invention affords water-based compositions containing an organic or inorganic compound, particularly aqueous organic coating, ink, agricultural and electronics cleaning compositions, having reduced equilibrium and dynamic surface tension by incorporation of an effective amount of an alkoxylated acetylenic diol of the above structure.
- water-based aqueous or “aqueous medium” we mean, for purposes of this invention, a solvent or liquid dispersing medium which comprises at least about 90 wt %, preferably at least about 95 wt %, water. Obviously, an all water medium is also included and is most preferred. Also for purposes of the present invention, the terms “photoresist developing” and “electronics cleaning” are interchangeable.
- an aqueous solution of the alkoxylated acetylenic diol demonstrates a dynamic surface tension of less than 35 dynes/cm at a concentration of ⁇ 0.5 wt % in water at 23° C. and 1 bubble/second according to the maximum-bubble pressure method.
- the maximum-bubble-pressure method of measuring surface tension is described in Langmuir 1986, 2, 428-432, which is incorporated by reference.
- This invention relates to compounds of the formulas A and B.
- (n+m) and (p+q) each can range from 1 to 30. It is preferred that (n+m) be 1.3 to 15 and most preferably 1.3 to 10. It is preferred that (p+q) be 1 to 10, more preferred 1-3 and most preferred 2.
- the alkylene oxide moieties represented by (OC2H4) are the (n+m) polymerized ethylene oxide (EO) units and those represented by (OC3H6) are the (p+q) polymerized propylene oxide (PO) units.
- EO and PO units are each segregated together are referred to as “block” alkoxylate derivatives. It is preferred the block copolymer products be capped, i.e., endcapped, with PO units.
- Random derivatives can be represented by formula B
- the block compositions of structure A can be prepared by reaction of 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol or 2,5,8,11-tetramethyl-6-dodecyne-5,8-diol with the requisite quantities of ethylene oxide followed by propylene oxide in the presence of a suitable catalyst.
- Suitable catalysts include trialkylamines and Lewis acids, particularly BF 3 .
- the compositions may be prepared by reaction of a pre-formed acetylenic diol ethoxylate with propylene oxide in the presence of an appropriate catalyst.
- the preferred process for making the acetylenic diol alkoxylates uses BF 3 or trialkylamine catalysts.
- BF 3 allows the rapid preparation of derivatives containing relatively large quantities of propylene oxide.
- compositions prepared with trialkylamine catalysts, especially trimethylamine are preferred for several reasons. They can be prepared using a process very similar to that used for manufacture of acetylenic diol ethoxylates without significant byproduct chemistry.
- trialkylamine catalysts allow for the preparation of 2 mole propylene oxide capped derivatives in high selectivity using a highly efficient, one pot process.
- the tertiary acetylenic diol starting materials can be prepared in various known manners such as those described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,250,445; U.S. Pat. No. 2,106,180 and U.S. Pat. No. 2,163,720, which are incorporated by reference.
- the acetylenic diol starting material may contain from 8 to 26 carbons.
- the acetylenic diol starting material contain 14 to 16 carbons, and it is most particularly preferred that it be 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol or 2,5,8,11-tetramethyl-6-dodecyne-5,8-diol.
- Various basic catalysts can be used to promote the reaction between the alkylene oxide and the acetylenic tertiary glycols in which the hydroxyl groups are attached to a carbon atom in a position alpha to the acetylenic bonds according to this invention.
- Tertiary aliphatic amines namely trialkylamines such as trimethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, dimethylethylamine, diethylmethylamine and the like, are particularly advantageous catalysts for the reaction.
- Such tertiary aliphatic amines catalyze the addition reaction at a rapid rate at moderately low temperatures and pressures without inducing cleavage of the acetylenic glycol.
- Trimethylamine is preferred because of its high catalytic activity and longevity in the reaction.
- alkali metal hydroxides can be used to increase the polyalkylene oxide chain length once the initial adducts have been formed and protected against decomposition. It is anticipated that alkali metal hydroxides could also be used to promote the addition of propylene oxide to initial EO or PO adducts with sufficiently low quantities of residual tertiary acetylenic alcohol functionality.
- the trialkylamine-catalyzed addition reaction may be performed at either atmospheric (15 psig; 1 bar) or moderate to low superatmospheric pressures (30-300 psig; 2-20 bar).
- moderate to low superatmospheric pressures is preferred since it obviates the necessity of recycling unreacted ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, and generally proceeds at faster rates than additions carried out at atmospheric pressures.
- the effect of pressure on rate is particularly important in the reaction with propylene oxide, and it is therefore preferred that reactions be performed at pressures in excess of 30 psig (2 bar). It is particularly preferred that the process be carried out at a pressure greater than 60 psig (4 bar).
- reaction under pressure Another benefit of performing the reaction under pressure is that such reactions may be accomplished with ordinary efficient agitation, while reactions conducted at atmospheric pressure often work best when a dispersion type agitator is used. While the reaction can be carried out at lower pressure, reaction rates, and therefore reactor productivity, suffer. Performing the reaction at pressures much in excess of about 300 psig (20 bar) would likely have only marginal benefit, and would increase the cost of equipment required for manufacture. It is preferred to operate at 100 psig (6.7 bar).
- the temperature at which the reaction is run for trialkylamine catalyzed reactions will depend upon the particular system and the catalyst concentration. Generally, at higher catalyst concentrations, the reactions can be run at lower temperatures and pressures. Reaction temperatures should be high enough to permit the reaction to proceed at a reasonable rate, but low enough to prevent decomposition of the reagents and products. Temperatures in the range of 40-150° C. are suitable, 50-120° C. preferred, and 70-90° C. particularly preferred.
- the reaction stops at a PO end cap on each chain, i.e., the obtained product is an acetylenic diol EO/PO adduct containing two PO end caps, p and q each being 1 in Formula A.
- the trialkylamine catalyzed process affords an adduct having random EO and PO units, in the latter case extending beyond the original EO block.
- the acetylenic glycol is liquefied by melting and the catalyst is added with stirring.
- Ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide are added as liquids with stirring and the reaction is concluded when the desired polyalkylene oxide chain length is reached as determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), cloud point (ASTM D2024-65) or water titration of an isopropyl alcohol solution.
- GPC gel permeation chromatography
- HPLC high performance liquid chromatography
- NMR nuclear magnetic resonance
- ASTM D2024-65 cloud point
- water titration of an isopropyl alcohol solution No solvents are necessary during the reaction, but inert solvents such as aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene and toluene) and ethers (ethyl ether) may be used to facilitate handling.
- inert solvents such as aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene and toluene) and ethers (eth
- the reaction conditions will be determined by the identity and concentration of the catalyst.
- Lewis acid catalysts include BCl 3 , AlCl 3 , TiCl 4 , BF 3 , SnCl 4 , ZnCl 2 and the like.
- the preferred Lewis acid catalyst is BF 3 .
- temperature control during the initial stages of the reaction is critical, since too high a temperature will result in dehydration of the acetylenic diol. It is preferred that the temperature be maintained below 80° C., preferably below 60° C., and most preferably below 50° C.
- the reaction pressure can range from atmospheric to low to moderate superatmospheric pressure, i.e., from 15 to 300 psig (1 to 20 bar). Because of the high activity of BF 3 , good results can be obtained at more moderate pressures of about 1 bar than for those reactions performed using trialkylamine catalysts.
- the catalysts may be used at 0.001 to 10 wt %, preferably 0.01 to 5 wt %, and most preferably 0.1 to 1 wt %, based on total final reactant mass. In both cases, because deactivation may occur during the alkoxylation, it may be necessary to add additional catalyst to complete the reaction, particularly if large amounts of EO and PO are being added.
- the EO and PO may be added to the reaction concurrently as separate charges or streams, or added as a single charge or stream comprising a mixture of EO and PO.
- the EO and PO are added consecutively.
- the alkoxylated acetylenic diols are useful for the reduction of equilibrium and dynamic surface tension in water-based compositions containing an organic compound, particularly aqueous coating, ink, fountain solution, agricultural and electronics processing compositions containing organic compounds such as polymeric resins, macromolecules, organic bases, herbicides, fungicides, insecticides or plant growth modifying agents. It is desirable that an aqueous solution of the alkoxylated acetylenic diol demonstrates a dynamic surface tension of less than 35 dynes/cm at a concentration of ⁇ 0.5 wt % in water at 23° C. and 1 bubble/second according to the maximum-bubble-pressure method.

- TMAH tetramethylammonium hydroxide
- an amount of the alkoxylated acetylenic diol compound that is effective to reduce the equilibrium and/or dynamic surface tension of the water-based, organic or inorganic compound-containing composition is added.
- Such effective amount may range from 0.001 to 10 g/100 mL, preferably 0.01 to 1 g/100 mL, and most preferably 0.05 to 0.5 g/100 mL of the aqueous composition.
- effective amounts may range from 0.001 to 1 g/100 mL, preferably 0.002 to 0.8 g/100 mL, and most preferably 0.005 to 0.5 g/100 mL.

The improvement provided by this invention, which could not have been foreseen, involves the use in these developer formulations of certain acetylenic diol adducts which also contain propoxy groups.
- a typical water-based photoresist developer, or electronic cleaning, composition to which the alkoxylated acetylenic diol surfactants of the invention may be added would comprise an aqueous medium containing the following components: Water-Based Photoresist Developer Composition 0.1 to 3 wt % Tetramethylammonium Hydroxide 0 to 4 wt % Phenolic Compound 10 to 10,000 ppm Acetylenic Diol EO/PO Derivative
- the process for manufacture of integrated circuits involves the application of a film of photoresist composition to a suitable substrate, such as a silicon wafer, which is then exposed to actinic radiation in a designed pattern that is imposed upon the photoresist film.
- a suitable substrate such as a silicon wafer
- actinic radiation in a designed pattern that is imposed upon the photoresist film.
- the radiation either increases or decreases its solubility in a subsequently applied developer solution. Consequently, in a positive-working photoresist the areas masked from the radiation remain after development while the exposed areas are dissolved away. In the negative-working photoresist the opposite occurs.
- the surfactant of this invention can be used in developers for either type of photoresist.
- the character of the developer is very important in determining the quality of the circuits formed and precise control of developing is essential. To achieve better surface wetting by the developer is has been common to add surfactant to the formulation in order to reduce surface tension of the solution. This addition, however, can cause the developer to foam which leads to circuit defects. This foaming problem is also recognized in the art and considerable attention in the industry has been directed toward its solution.
- the developer, or electronics cleaning, solutions in which use of the adduct of the invention is preferred are the aqueous solutions of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH). These developers are also well known in the art. Commercial developers usually contain low levels of surfactant on the order of 50 to 1000 ppm by weight. Surfactant level should not exceed that required to achieve the desired surface tension of the solution. For example, surface tensions of about 40 to 45 dynes/cm would be appropriate for novolac-based photoresist resins. Advanced resins that often incorporate aliphatic groups might require a developer with lower surface tension to enhance wetting.
- One of the advantages of the surfactants of this invention is that suitable surface tensions can be obtained at lower levels than is required by other wetting agents. This in itself is a step toward solving the foaming problem in the manufacture of microcircuitry.
- This example illustrates that two mole propoxylates of acetylenic diol ethoxylates can be prepared with high selectivity when using trialkylamine catalysts.
- the preparation of the 7 mole propoxylate of Surfynol® 465 surfactant which is the 10 mole ethoxylate of 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-4-decyne-4,7-diol, was attempted.
- a 1000 mL autoclave was charged with Surfynol® 465 surfactant (300 g, 0.45 moles) and dimethylethylamine (53.7 g, 0.73 moles).
- the reactor was sealed, purged free of air with three nitrogen pressure-vent cycles, then pressured to 100 psig (6.7 bar) with nitrogen and heated to 120° C.
- Propylene oxide (183 g, 3.15 moles) was added over a period of 70 minutes by means of a syringe pump.
- the reaction mixture was heated for an additional 12 hr at 120° C.
- the reactor contents were cooled and discharged.
- the product was heated under vacuum to remove volatiles (unreacted PO and catalyst); 68 g of material were removed.
- Matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry indicated that almost all the individual oligomers in the product possessed one or two propylene oxide residues with only very small amounts of product containing three or more PO units. The fate of a substantial amount of the propylene oxide appeared to be formation of dimethylamino-terminated polypropyleneoxide.
- trialkylamine catalysts would have any efficacy for promoting the reaction of propylene oxide. It would also not be anticipated that high selectivity to the two mole propoxylates of an acetylenic diol could be achieved.
- Example 3 illustrates the preparation of the 3.5 mole ethoxylate of 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol capped with 2 moles of propylene oxide using trimethylamine catalyst and a preformed ethoxylate.
- the 3.5 mole ethoxylate of 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol is commercially available from Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. and is marketed as Surfynol® 440 surfactant.
- BF 3 diethyl etherate (1.3 g) was added and ethylene oxide and propylene oxide were added simultaneously at rates of 91.05 mL/h and 68.95 mL/h, respectively, by means of two syringe pumps.
- the total amount of ethylene oxide (180 g, 204 mL, 4.08 moles) and propylene oxide (128 g, 155 mL, 2.2 moles) were such that the final mole ratio of diol:EO:PO was 1:5:2.
- an additional 0.7 g of BF 3 diethyl etherate was added, whereupon an exotherm to 45.5° C. was observed. At this point gas chromatographic analysis indicated that the reaction was complete.
- the product (Example 6) was analyzed by NMR and MALD/I and found to have a structure consistent with the desired structure.
- Example 7-22 Sixteen similar materials (Examples 7-22) were prepared by variation of the diol structure, the amounts of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, and the structural motif of the alkylene oxide chain.
- Table 2 shows the acetylenic diol compositions prepared using BF 3 catalysis. In Table 2, R designates “random,” while B designates “block.”
- Example 22 has been disclosed in JP 03063187 A (however, JP '187 does not teach a method for its preparation nor whether the adduct is a block or random copolymer), and has been shown to have efficacy in fountain solutions for lithographic printing.
- the S82 designation corresponds to 3,6-dimethyl-4-hexyne-3,6-diol.
- composition of this invention is markedly superior in its ability to reduce surface tension relative to the composition of the prior art.
- Comparison of the data for the 1.0 wt % solution of the Example 5 surfactant with that of the 5.0 wt % solution of the S82 derivative (Example 22) shows that the compound of the invention provides superior performance at all surface creation rates at 20% the use level. Since reduction of dynamic surface tension is of such importance in a dynamic application in which aqueous fountain solutions are utilized, it would not be anticipated based on the teachings of the prior art that modification of the hydrophobic group (the acetylenic diol moiety) would have such an advantageous effect.
- the pC 20 value is defined as the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of surfactant required to decrease the surface tension of an aqueous solution to 52.1 dyne/cm, that is, 20 dyne/cm below that of pure water when the measurement is performed at 0.1 b/s. This value is a measure of the efficiency of a surfactant. In general, an increase in pC 20 value of 1.0 indicates that 10 times less surfactant will be required to observe a given effect.
- the critical aggregation concentrations were determined by intersection of the linear portion of a surface tension/In concentration curve with the limiting surface tension as is described in many textbooks.
- the limiting surface tensions at 0.1 and 20 bubbles/second (b/s) represent the lowest surface tensions in water which can be achieved at the given surface creation rate for a given surfactant regardless of the amount of surfactant used. These values give information about the relative ability to a surfactant to reduce surface defects under near-equilibrium condition (0.1 b/s) through very dynamic conditions (20 b/s). Lower surface tensions would allow the elimination of defects upon application of a formulation onto lower energy surfaces.
- the two base acetylenic diols that were ethoxylated were of the above structure, namely, S-104 (2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol) in which r and t are both 1, i.e., an isobutyl group, and S-124 (2,5,8,11-tetramethyl-6-dodecyne-5,8-diol) in which r and t are both 2, i.e., an isoamyl group.
- the surfactant efficiency pC 20 value is defined as the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of surfactant required to decrease the surface tension of an aqueous solution to 52.1 dyne/cm, that is, 20 dyne/cm below that of pure water when the measurement is performed at 0.1 b/s.
- This value (pC 20 ) is a measure of the efficiency of a surfactant. In general, an increase in pC 20 value of 1.0 indicates that 10 times less surfactant will be require to observe a given effect, i.e., the higher the value the more efficient the surfactant.
- the S-104 ethoxylates were made using the 5.1 mole ethoxylate of 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol which was prepared by reaction of the starting diol with ethylene oxide in the presence of trimethylamine catalyst at 80° C. using conventional procedures.
- This 5.1 mole ethoxylate of S-104 was reacted with varying amounts of ethylene oxide using trimethylamine catalyst.
- a 1000 mL autoclave was charged with the 5.1 mole ethoxylate (210 g, 0.47 moles) which had previously been dried by heating under nitrogen.
- the reactor was sealed and pressure checked, the air was removed with three nitrogen pressure-vent cycles, and trimethylamine (1.2 g) was added by means of a gas tight syringe.
- the reactor was pressured to 100 psig (6.7 bar) with nitrogen and heated to 100° C. whereupon ethylene oxide (8.2 g, 9.3 mL, 0.19 moles) was added at a rate of 1 mL/min by means of a syringe pump.
- the reactor contents were stirred at 100° C. for 4 hours.
- the reactor was sampled to obtain an aliquot of the 5.5 mole ethoxylate of 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol.
- ethoxylates were prepared by adding sufficient ethylene oxide to prepare the 6.5, 7.1, 15, 17, and 25 mole ethoxylates of 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol. Samples of each ethoxylate were removed from the reactor and characterized by matrix assisted laser-desorption/ionization (MALD/I) analysis.
- MALD/I matrix assisted laser-desorption/ionization
- the S-124 ethoxylates were made using the 4 mole ethoxylate of 2,5,8,11-tetramethyl-6-dodecyne-5,8-diol, which is commercially available as Dynol 604 surfactant from Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.
- This 4 mole ethoxylate of S-124 was reacted with ethylene oxide using trimethylamine catalyst.
- a 1000 mL autoclave was charged with the 4.0 mole ethoxylate (195 g, 0.44 moles) which had previously been dried by heating under nitrogen. The reactor was sealed and pressure checked, the air was removed with three nitrogen pressure-vent cycles, and trimethylamine (1.2 g) was added by means of a gas tight syringe.
- the reactor was pressured to 100 psig (6.7 bar) with nitrogen and heated to 100° C. whereupon ethylene oxide (58.31 g, 66.1 mL, 1.32 moles) was added at a rate of 1 mL/min by means of a syringe pump. At the completion of the addition, the reactor contents were stirred at 100° C. for 4 hours. The reactor was sampled to obtain an aliquot of the 7.0 mole ethoxylate of 2,5,8,11-tetramethyl-6-dodecyne-5,8-diol.
- ethoxylates were prepared by adding sufficient ethylene oxide to prepare the 15, 17, and 25 mole ethoxylates of 2,5,8,11-tetramethyl-6-dodecyne-5,8-diol. Samples of each ethoxylate were removed from the reactor and characterized by matrix assisted laser-desorption/ionization (MALD/I) analysis.
- MALD/I matrix assisted laser-desorption/ionization
- Table 11 presents additional surface tension ( ⁇ ), foam and efficiency (pC 20 ) data which had been generated for the S-104 and S-124 ethoxylate/propoxylates shown in Table 7.

- the resulting exposed wafer was developed (60 Seconds) in a puddle of 0.262 M tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) containing sufficient PO terminated acetylenic alcohol derivative (Example 4 adduct) to lower the surface tension of the developer to 42 dynes/cm.
- TMAH tetramethylammonium hydroxide
- Example 4 adduct sufficient PO terminated acetylenic alcohol derivative
- Example 4 adduct Comparisons were made of the effectiveness of the Example 4 adduct with ethoxylated adducts of the prior art in reducing surface tension in 0.262 M TMAH solutions.
- significantly higher amounts of the prior art ethoxylated adducts were required to obtain surface tensions comparable to the adduct of Example 4 which was both ethoxylated and propoxylated, containing 5.1 moles of EO and 2.0 moles of PO per molecule.
- the prior art adducts were those described in Table 5 for Comparative Examples 29, 30 and 31 and contained 3.5, 5.1 and 10 moles, respectively, of EO per molecule.
- the family of surfactants disclosed in this invention provides an ability to control foam while providing excellent dynamic surface tension reduction. They will therefore have utility in applications such as coatings, inks, adhesives, fountain solutions, agricultural compositions, soaps and detergents. Their use in photoresist developer/-electronics cleaning compositions is especially advantageous.
- the invention provides compositions suitable for reducing the equilibrium and dynamic surface tension in water-based coating, ink, fountain solution, agricultural, and photoresist developer/electronics cleaning compositions.
