Definitions
- the invention concerns laminates for use in the printed wiring board industry.
- the invention concerns laminates exhibiting reduced curl.
- the electronics industry continues to seek enhanced product performance in order to meet consumer demand for higher functionality and lower cost computers and electronics equipment. Consequently, as board shops continue to reduce laminate construction thickness to meet the demand for higher density interconnects, physical aspects of the laminate, such as laminate curl, become more apparent and problematic. There exists a need, therefore, for laminate systems that can be consistently processed to provide favorable characteristics, such as low curl.
- the invention provides laminates and methods for preparing laminates, which exhibit consistently low curl, as measured on a flat plane.
- the invention provides a copper-clad laminate comprising a prepreg and a copper foil joined to at least one surface of the prepreg, wherein the copper foil has a tensile strength of less than 47 ksi.
- Fig. 1 depicts average curl of a laminate as a function of several factors, including copper tensile strength.
- Fig. 2 depicts curl range in a laminate as a function of several factors, including copper tensile strength.
- Fig. 3 depicts average curl of a laminate as a function of several factors, including copper tensile strength.
- Fig. 4 depicts curl range in a laminate as a function of several factors, including copper tensile strength.
- the invention provides copper-clad laminates comprising a prepreg and a copper foil joined to at least one surface of the prepreg.
- the tensile strength of the copper is less than that commonly used in the art for preparing laminates.
- the laminates of the invention exhibit reduced laminate curl as measured on a flat plane.
- the copper foil used in the invention has a tensile strength of less than 47 ksi (kilopounds per square inch), more preferably less than 46 ksi, and even more preferably, less than 45 ksi.

- the resin composition can optionally include one or more fillers, to improve the chemical and electrical properties of the cured resin. Examples of properties that can be modified with fillers include, but are not limited to, coefficient of thermal expansion, lowering CTE, increasing modulus, and reducing prepreg tack.
- Non- limiting examples of useful fillers include particulate forms of Teflon®, talc, quartz, ceramics, particulate metal oxides such as silica, titanium dioxide, alumina, ceria, clay, boron nitride, wollastonite, and mixtures thereof.
- Preferred fillers include calcined clay or fused silica.
- Yet another preferred filler is silane treated silica.
- fillers are present in the thermosetting resin composition in an amount from about 0 % to about 20 %, preferably from about 0 to about 10 %, based on 100 % by weight solids of the composition.
- the thermosetting resin composition may include one or more tougheners.
- the tougheners are added to the resin composition to improve the drillability of the resulting composites and laminates.
- Useful tougheners include methyl methacrylate/butadiene/styrene copolymer, methacrylate butadiene styrene core shell particles, and mixtures thereof.
- a preferred toughener is methacrylate butadiene styrene core shell particles, which is available from Rohm & Haas (100 Independence Mall West, Philadelphia, PA), sold under the trade name Paraloid®.
- tougheners are present in the thermosetting resin composition in an amount from about 1 % to about 5 %, preferably from about 2 to about 4 %, based on 100 % by weight solids of the composition.
- One or more curing agents are optionally added to the thermosetting resin composition in order to enhance the rate of resin cure during prepreg processing.
- the curing agents chosen may be any agents that are know to speed up the rate of thermosetting resin cure.
- Preferred curing agents include peroxide agents that generate free radicals such as dicumyl peroxide, or tert-butyl peroxybenzoate (commercially available from, for example, Akzo-Nobel Polymer Chemicals LLC, Chicago, IL as Triganox-C).
- Other preferred curing agents include metal acetylacetonate complexes (metal acac).
- a more preferred curing agent is dicumyl peroxide.
- thermosetting resin composition When used, curing agents are present in the thermosetting resin composition preferably in an amount of from about 0 % to about 30 %, more preferably from about 12 % to about 25 %, based on 100 % by weight resin solids of the composition.
- the thermosetting resin composition may include one or more flame retardants. Any flame retardant that is known to be useful in resin compositions used to manufacture composites and laminates may be used.
- Examples of useable flame retardants include, but are not limited to, halides of glycidyl etherified bifunctional alcohols, halides of novolac resins such as bisphenol A, bisphenol F, polyvinylphenol or phenol, creosol, alkylphenol, catecohl, and novolac resins such as bisphenol F, inorganic flame retardants such as antimony trioxide, red phosphorus, zirconium hydroxide, barium metaborate, aluminum hydroxide, and magnesium hydroxide, and phosphor flame retardants such as tetraphenyl phosphine, tricresyl-diphenyl phosphate, triethylphosphate, cresyldiphenylphosphate, xylenyl-diphenyl phosphate, acid phosphate esters, phosphate compounds containing nitrogen, and phosphate esters containing halides.
- novolac resins such as bisphenol A, bisphenol F, polyvinylphenol or
- One or more solvents are typically incorporated into the resin composition in order to provide resin solubility, control resin viscosity, and in order to maintain the resin ingredients in a suspended dispersion, and to facilitate transfer of the resin to the core material.
- Any solvent known by one of skill in the art to be useful in conjunction with thermosetting resin systems can be used.
- Particularly useful solvents include methylamylketone (MAK), methylethylketone (MEK), toluene, gamma-butyrolactone
- thermosetting resin composition in an amount of from ⁇ about 20 % to about 50 % as a weight percentage of the total weight of the composition.
- the thermosetting resin composition may further contain other additives such as defoaming agents, leveling agents, dyes, and pigments.
- a fluorescent dye can be added to the resin composition in a trace amount to cause a laminate prepared therefrom to fluoresce when exposed to UV light in a board shop's optical inspection equipment.
- a useful fluorescent dye is a highly conjugated diene dye.
- One example of such a dye is UVITEX® OB (2,5-thiophenediylbis(5-tert-butyl-l,3- benzoxazole), available from Ciba Specialty Chemicals, Tarrytown, New York.
- Prepregs are generally manufactured using a core material such as a roll of woven glass web which is unwound into a series of drive rolls.
- the web then passes into a coating area where the web is passed through a tank which contains a thermosetting resin composition, including solvents and other components as discussed above.
- the glass web becomes saturated with the resin in the coating area.
- the resin saturated glass web is then passed through a pair of metering rolls which remove excess resin from the resin saturated glass web and thereafter, the resin coated web travels the length of a drying tower for a selected period of time until the solvent is evaporated from the web.
- a second and subsequent coating of resin can be applied to the web by repeating these steps until the preparation of the prepreg is complete whereupon the prepreg is wound onto roll.
- Lamination process typically entail a stack-up of one or more prepreg layers between one or two sheets of conductive foil (such as copper foil).
- Lamination methods and parameters may vary widely, and are generally well known to the person of ordinary skill in the art.
- the stack In a typical cure cycle, the stack is maintained at a pressure of about 40 psi to about 900 psi and under a vacuum of about 30 in/Hg.
- the stack temperature is raised from about 180°F to about 375°F over a period of about 20 minutes.
- the stack remains at a temperature of about 375°F for 75 minutes after which the stack is cooled from a temperature of 375°F to a temperature to 75°F over a 20 minute period.
- a thermosetting resin composition is premixed in a mixing vessel under ambient temperature and pressure.
- the viscosity of the pre-mix is about 600 - 1000 cps and can be adjusted by adding or removing solvent from the resin.
- Fabric substrate typically but not limited to E glass
- a thermosetting resin composition can also be coated directly on Cu substrate (RCC - resin coated Cu) using slot-die or other related coating techniques.
- Example 1 A 2 4 experiment with one nested factor (the press) was run in randomized replication, with two factors having three levels and two factors having two levels.
- the factors that are controllable are the number of paper plys used in each book, the copper tensile strength and the B-stage construction. All three are significant contributors to curl for Press 1 while only B-stage and Copper tensile were significant for Press 2. The data indicates that lower copper tensile strength contributes to less curl.
