The present invention relates to the technical field of copper clad laminates, and in particular to a flame-retardant polyphenylene ether resin composition and a prepreg and a copper clad laminate using the same.
Polyphenylene ether resin has good heat resistance, dielectric properties and toughness, and thus it has a good application prospect in composite materials such as laminates. However, due to the difference in polarity between polyphenylene ether and conventional thermosetting resins and the poor compatibility and that phase separation is easy to occur, resin phase separation is generally occurred in copper clad laminates of thermosetting resin systems such as polyphenylene ether-modified epoxy resin and cyanate ester, etc., resulting in that the material is unevenly stressed when heated and is prone to problems such as popcorn during high temperature processing. Therefore, the application of polyphenylene ether has various difficulties.
Commonly used methods for improving compatibility are generally to reduce the molecular weight of polyphenylene ether resin to enhance its compatibility, or to insert a reactive group into the structure of a low-molecular-weight polyphenylene ether to enhance the connection between polyphenylene ether and other resins, or to introduce a compatibilizer into the polyphenylene ether resin composition to promote the compatibility between polyphenylene ether and other resins.
CN101796132A refers to a resin composition composed of a polyphenylene ether, an epoxy resin, a cyanate ester and a halogen flame retardant, etc., wherein the halogen flame retardant is ethylene dipentabromobenzene, ethylene bis(tetrabromophthalimide), decabromodiphenyl oxide, tetradecabromodiphenoxy benzene and bis(tribromophenoxy)ethane, etc. In this composition, the polyphenylene ether has poor compatibility with the epoxy resin and the cyanate ester, and phase separation or the like is easy to occur in the resin of the laminate. The flame retardant described above can satisfy flame retardancy requirements for the resin composition in a circuit substrate, but does not contribute to the compatibility between the polyphenylene ether and other component resins.
CN103842397A discloses a resin composition comprising a bifunctional phenylene ether oligomer having a polyphenylene ether skeleton, an aralkyl-based cyanate ester compound, a bisphenol-based cyanate ester compound, an epoxy resin, a brominated carbonate oligomer, an inorganic filler, an alkoxynaphthol-based polymerization inhibitor and/or a thioether-based polymerization inhibitor. A polyphenylene ether having a functional group is used in the composition. However, this kind of polyphenylene ether does not react with an epoxy resin or the like. Moreover, the bifunctionality cannot improve the compatibility between the polyphenylene ether and other components. The toughness of the laminate is relatively poor.
Therefore, how to improve the compatibility between polyphenylene ether and other components and maintain excellent comprehensive properties of copper clad laminates has become the focus of current research.
Based on the above, one of the objects of the present invention is to provide a polyphenylene ether resin composition which can not only effectively improve the compatibility between polyphenylene ether and epoxy resin, but also satisfy the flame retardancy requirement and reduce dielectric constant (Dk) and dielectric loss (Df).
In order to achieve the above object, the inventors have performed repeated and intensive studies, and found that by using a phosphorus-containing polyphenylene ether resin with a low molecular weight in combination with an epoxy resin and a cyanate ester, etc., the compatibility of the system is unexpectedly improved, the phase separation region thereof is reduced and the adhesion force and toughness of the laminate are enhanced. The use of a soluble halogen flame retardant further enhances the uniformity of the resin system. The laminate has good uniformity, enhanced adhesiveness and lower dielectric constant and dielectric loss.
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
A resin composition, comprising, by weight percentage:
(A) 10% to 45% of a phosphorus-containing polyphenylene ether resin having a number average molecular weight of 1000 to 6000;
(B) 10% to 50% of an epoxy resin composition;
(C) 10% to 50% of a cyanate ester resin;
(D) 10% to 30% of a soluble halogen flame retardant.
Wherein the percentage contents of components (A), (B), (C) and (D) exclude solvent.
In the present invention, by using a phosphorus-containing polyphenylene ether resin with a low molecular weight in combination with an epoxy resin and a cyanate ester, etc., the compatibility of the system is effectively improved, the phase separation region thereof is reduced and the adhesion force and toughness of the laminate are enhanced. Meanwhile, the use of a soluble halogen flame retardant further enhances the uniformity of the resin system.

The laminate has good uniformity, enhanced adhesiveness and lower dielectric constant and dielectric loss. The dielectric constant can be controlled between 3.6 and 3.8 and the dielectric loss tangent can be controlled between 0.006 and 0.008, which improves the dielectric properties of the laminate.

The examples of the present invention are further described below in various examples. The examples of the present invention are not limited to the specific examples below. Appropriate modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the claims for implementation.
Unless otherwise stated, the “part(s)” represents “part(s) by weight”, and the “%” represents “% by weight”.
100 parts of polyphenylene ether powder, 200 parts of toluene and a specific part of phosphorus-containing phenolic compound (see Table 1 for the types and parts) were added to a reaction kettle equipped with stirring, heating and reflux apparatuses, stirred and heated to 95° C. and stirred at this temperature until completely dissolved. A specific part of peroxide was divided into ten portions, which were then sequentially added into the reaction kettle. The temperature was kept for 8 hours to obtain a solution of low molecular weight-modified polyphenylene ether resin in toluene. The formulations thereof are shown in Table 1.
The above toluene solution was concentrated in a rotary evaporator, and then added dropwise to methanol, and filtered to obtain a precipitate. The precipitate was dried in a blast oven at 100° C. to obtain a low molecular weight-modified polyphenylene ether resin. The resin was measured for number average molecular weight (Mn) by using toluene as a mobile phase. Results are shown in Table 1.
The prepared modified polyphenylene ether in certain preparation example, an epoxy resin, a cyanate ester resin and a soluble halogen flame retardant were sufficiently dissolved in toluene, and then uniformly mixed with an insoluble halogen flame retardant, a filler and accelerants including 2-ethyl-4-methyl imidazole and zinc isooctanoate (see Tables 2 and 3 for the types and parts) to obtain a solution of polyphenylene ether resin composition in toluene.
A NE-type glass fiber (Nittobo Co., Ltd., NEA2116) was impregnated with this resin composition and dried at 155° C. for 2 to 10 minutes to remove the solvent to make the volatile content less than 1%. The gel time of the resin is 150 to 200 s. A prepreg having a resin content of about 55% was obtained.
A reversed copper foil of HOz was coated on both sides of four overlapped prepregs and subjected to hot pressing at a temperature of 200° C. and a pressure of 3.0 MPa for 90 min to obtain a double-sided copper clad laminate.
The above characteristics were determined through the following methods:
1) Volatility: The prepared prepreg was baked at 155° C. for 10 min, followed by measurement of the mass loss of the prepreg. A loss of more than 2% indicates volatilization;
2) Gel time: Determined by using a gel tester at a temperature of 171° C.;
3) Dielectric constant (Dk) and dielectric dissipation factor (Df): Determined by using a split post dielectric resonator (SPDR);
4) Glass transition temperature (Tg): Determined by using a dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) test with a heating rate of 20° C./min;
5) Thermal decomposition temperature (Td): Determined by using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) with a heating rate of 10° C./min. The temperature at which point 5% weight loss occurred was collected;
6) Peel strength (PS): refers to the pulling force required to peel off a millimetre of copper foil from the copper clad laminate at room temperature;
7) Flame retardancy: Determined according to UL94 “50 W (20 mm) Vertical Burning Test: V-0, V-1 and V-2”, and V-0 is considered as being flame retardant;
8) Drop hammer impact: Determined by using a paint film impactor, and the crack area after the impact was collected.
9) Size of the maximum phase separation “sea-island”: The cross section of the laminate was observed by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the diameter of the maximum phase separation region “sea-island” was collected;
10) Number average molecular weight (Mn) of the low molecular weight-modified polyphenylene ether: The modified polyphenylene ethers obtained by the preparation examples were tested by GPC. The number average molecular weight (Mn) at the main peak of the GPC spectrum was collected. Toluene was used as mobile phase.
It can be seen from the above results that the number average molecular weights of the low molecular weight-modified polyphenylene ethers of Preparation Examples 1-7, in which a phosphorus-containing phenolic compound was used, were not much different from that of Comparative Preparation Example 1, and products with various Mn can be obtained by adjusting the ratio of the phenolic compound.
The sizes of the maximum phase separation “sea-island” of the resin compositions obtained in Examples 1-8 by using the phosphorus-containing polyphenylene ether resin with a low molecular weight of the present invention were shown to be less than 5 μm, thereby illustrating that the polyphenylene ether resin of the present invention had good compatibility with other resins. The resin composition of Example 8, into which molten silica was added as a filler, had an increased Dk relative to Example 1, but the comprehensive properties were superior. However, the size of the maximum phase separation “sea-island” of the resin composition obtained in Comparative Example 1 without using a soluble halogen flame retardant was shown to reach 20 μm, which was much larger than the “sea-island” size of Example 1. The sizes of the maximum phase-separation “sea-island” were shown to be 20-30 μm in Comparative Examples 2-3 in which a soluble halogen flame retardant was used and the polyphenylene ether resin of the present invention was not used. Moreover, the drop hammer impact areas thereof were larger than those of Examples 3 and 1, respectively, that is, the impact resistance was obviously poor. The size of the maximum phase separation “sea-island” of the resin composition obtained in Comparative Example 4 by using low-molecular-weight polyphenylene ether SA120 was shown to reach at least 50 μm, which was larger than the size of the “sea-island” of Example 3 in which the polyphenylene ether resin of the present invention was used, thereby illustrating that the resin composition obtained in Comparative Example 4 had poor compatibility with other resins. The size of the maximum phase separation “sea-island” of the resin composition obtained in Comparative Example 5 by using low-molecular-weight polyphenylene ether SA90 was smaller and shown to be 5 μm. However, the resin composition obtained in Comparative Example 5 had an extremely low glass transition temperature and higher dielectric constant and dielectric loss compared to that of Example 3. The size of the maximum phase separation “sea-island” was shown to reach at least 50 μm and the peel strength was too low in Comparative Example 6, in which an excessive amount of phosphorus-containing polyphenylene ether resin with a low molecular weight was used. The corresponding “sea-island” size was small, but the dielectric properties were significantly poor in Comparative Example 7, in which too little phosphorus-containing polyphenylene ether resin with a low molecular weight was used. The glass transition temperature of the laminate was significantly lower and the size of “sea-island” was too larger in Comparative Example 8, in which cyanate ester was not used. The laminate prepared in Comparative Example 9, in which cyanate ester was not used and the epoxy resin content was lower, was fragile and cannot be tested.
In addition, it can be seen from Examples 1-8 that the Dk values of the resulting laminates were 3.6-3.8, and the Df values were between 0.006 and 0.008, which were significantly lower than the Dk values (3.9-4.2) and the Df values (0.009-0.012) in Comparative Examples 1-5 and 7-8, indicating that the dielectric properties thereof were better than those of Comparative Examples 1-5 and 7-8. Although the Dk and Df of Comparative Example 6 were lower, other properties were poor and thus cannot meet the application.
The above results show that the use of the resin composition obtained in the present invention in copper clad laminates effectively improves the dielectric properties of the laminate, enhances the peel strength, impact resistance and thermal decomposition temperature Td of the laminates, significantly improves the phase separation “sea-island” phenomenon of the resin system and maintains the heat resistance properties such as glass transition temperature Tg of the laminate.
