Description

Circuit connection material, connection structure and manufacturing method thereof

The present invention relates to a circuit connection material that is interposed between circuit electrodes facing each other, pressurizes the circuit electrodes facing each other, and electrically connects the electrodes in the pressing direction, and a connection structure using the circuit connection material And a manufacturing method thereof.

As a circuit connection material for a semiconductor element or a liquid crystal display element, a thermosetting resin using an epoxy resin having high adhesiveness and high reliability is known (for example, see Patent Document 1). As a constituent component of the resin, a curing agent such as an epoxy resin, a phenol resin having reactivity with the epoxy resin, and a latent curing agent that accelerates the reaction between the epoxy resin and the curing agent are generally used. The latent curing agent is an important factor for determining the curing temperature and the curing rate, and various compounds are used from the viewpoint of storage stability at room temperature and curing rate during heating.

Recently, a radical curable adhesive using an acrylate derivative and / or a methacrylate derivative (hereinafter collectively referred to as “(meth) acrylate derivative”) and a peroxide as a radical polymerization initiator has attracted attention. Has been. Radical curing can be cured in a short time because radicals that are reactive species are rich in reactivity (see, for example, Patent Documents 2 and 3).

Therefore, a short-curing adhesive that is advantageous for shortening the production time is now spreading. In addition, application of a chain transfer agent has been studied for the purpose of further improving the reactivity of the radical curable adhesive (see, for example, Patent Documents 4 and 5).

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1-113480 JP 2002-203427 A International Publication WO98 / 044067 Pamphlet JP 2003-221557 A International Publication WO2009 / 057376 Pamphlet

By the way, in recent years, in applications of small modules such as mobile phones, circuit connection materials have been studied as alternative members of connectors from the viewpoint that the modules can be thinned. Since the connection pitch of circuit members in such a small module is coarser than the connection pitch (for example, 0.4 mm or less) of circuit members to which circuit connection materials have been conventionally applied, circuit connection materials have characteristics different from conventional ones. Required.

For example, a circuit connection material used as an alternative member for a connector is required to have a higher adhesive force because the length of the connection portion is shorter than that of conventional fields (for semiconductor element use, liquid crystal display element use, etc.). The For example, in connection with a peripheral member of a liquid crystal panel, which is a conventional application, an adhesive force of 6 N / cm or more is usually required, but an adhesive force of 12 N / cm or more is required as an alternative member for a connector. There is a case.

On the other hand, in the connection with rough pitch (for example, connection pitch of 0.5 mm or more), the adhesive force tends to decrease even when the same circuit connection material is used as compared with the connection with fine pitch. This is presumably because the adhesive force in the shearing direction generated at the interface between the electrode wall and the circuit connecting material decreases as the number of electrodes per unit length decreases.

Therefore, the present invention provides a circuit connection material that can obtain a sufficiently high adhesive force even in rough pitch connection and has excellent connection reliability, a connection structure using the circuit connection material, and a method of manufacturing the same.

The circuit connection material according to the present embodiment can further contain a compound having one or more aminoxyl structures in the molecule.

The weight average molecular weight of the thermoplastic resin is measured in the same manner as the polymerization average molecular weight of the polymer that can be contained in the radical polymerizable substance.

As the thermoplastic resin, a hydroxyl group-containing resin (for example, phenoxy resin) having a Tg (glass transition temperature) of 40 ° C. or higher and a weight average molecular weight of 1.0 × 10 ⁴ or higher can be preferably used. The hydroxyl group-containing resin may be modified with an epoxy group-containing elastomer or a radical polymerizable functional group. Those modified with a radically polymerizable functional group are preferred because the heat resistance is improved.

The phenoxy resin can be obtained by reacting a bifunctional phenol and epihalohydrin to a high molecular weight or by polyaddition reaction of a bifunctional epoxy resin and a bifunctional phenol.

It is also preferable to use a polyester urethane resin as the thermoplastic resin. By containing a polyester urethane resin, the adhesive force in rough pitch connection tends to be further improved.

Furthermore, the circuit connection material according to the present embodiment includes fillers, softeners, accelerators, anti-aging agents, colorants, flame retardants, thixotropic agents, coupling agents, phenol resins, melamine resins, isocyanates, and the like. Can also be contained.

In addition, it is preferable to contain a filler since an improvement in connection reliability and the like can be obtained. As the filler, those having a maximum diameter smaller than the particle diameter of the conductive particles described later can be used. The filler content is preferably in the range of 5 to 60% by volume based on the total volume of the circuit connecting material. If it is 60% by volume or more, the effect of improving the reliability is saturated.

The circuit connection material according to the present embodiment can obtain a connection by direct contact of circuit electrodes facing each other at the time of connection without containing conductive particles, but is more stable when further containing conductive particles. Connection can be obtained.

Examples of the conductive particles include metal particles such as Au, Ag, Ni, Cu, and solder, and carbon. Further, the surface of a transition metal such as Ni may be coated with a noble metal such as Au. In order to obtain a sufficient pot life, the surface layer is preferably made of Au, Ag, or a platinum group noble metal, and more preferably Au, rather than transition metals such as Ni and Cu. In addition, a conductive layer was formed on the surface of the non-conductive particles by a method such as coating the surface of the non-conductive particles such as glass, ceramic, plastic, etc. with the above-mentioned conductive material, and the outermost layer was composed of noble metals. In the case of particles or hot-melt metal particles, since they are deformable by heating and pressing, the contact area with the electrode is increased at the time of connection, and the reliability is improved.

The blending amount of the conductive particles is appropriately set depending on the application, but is usually in the range of 0.1 to 30 parts by volume with respect to 100 parts by volume of the resin component in the circuit connecting material. In order to prevent an adjacent circuit from being short-circuited by excessive conductive particles, the amount is more preferably 0.1 to 10 parts by volume.

Also, when the circuit connection material is divided into two or more layers and separated into a layer containing a curing agent and a layer containing conductive particles, an improvement in pot life can be obtained.

Furthermore, the circuit connecting material according to the present embodiment may appropriately contain a polymerization inhibitor such as hydroquinone or methyl ether hydroquinone as necessary.
