Description
FIELD

The subject matter of the application relates to a polyamic acid composition, a polyimide film using the polyamic acid composition, and a copper clad laminate using the polyimide film.


BACKGROUND

Printed circuit board (PCB) is usually made by at least one copper clad laminate and at least one electronic component. A copper clad laminate includes a polyimide film and at least one copper foil attached to the surface of the polyimide film. The polyimide film is formed by coating a polyamic acid to the surface of the copper foil. During the process of making the printed circuit board, a portion of the copper foil will be removed from a region of the polyimide film, thereby exposing the region of the polyimide film. The exposed region of the polyimide film needs to be created accurately, to allow a CCD camera to accurately position the electronic component. The higher transparency of the exposed region, the better accurately positioning of the electronic component. In the copper clad laminate, the lower surface roughness of the copper foil, the higher transparency of the exposed region of the polyimide film. Conversely, the lower surface roughness of the copper foil, the weaker combined strength between the copper foil and the polyimide film.


Therefore, there is room for improvement in the art.

FIG. 2 shows a copper clad laminate 100 of the present disclosure. The copper clad laminate 100 includes a copper layer 10 and a polyimide film 20 attached on the copper layer 10. The polyimide film 20 is made from a polyamic acid composition.


The polyamic acid composition is a polymerization reaction product of dianhydride monomers and diamine monomers.


The dianhydride monomer includes at least one specific functional group structure selected from the combinations of a liquid crystal structure and a soft structure The soft structure may be a long-chain saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group or a long-chain unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group or an ether group. Among them, the long chain is a hydrocarbon linear structure of four or more carbons.


In at least one embodiment, the soft structure includes at least one of a group such as —O—, —CF3CCF3—, —SO2—, —C═O—, —CnH2n—, —CnH2n-2—, —CnH2n-4—, n≥3.


The diamine monomers have a combination of specific functional groups containing at least one nitrogen heterocycle structure, at least one liquid crystal structures, and at least one soft structure. The soft structure may be a long-chain saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group, a long-chain unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group, or an ether group. Among them, the long chain is a hydrocarbon linear structure of four or more carbons. In the at least one embodiment, the soft structure includes at least one of a group such as —O—, —CF3CCF3—, —SO2—, —C═O—, —CnH2n—, —CnH2n-2—, —CnH2n-4—, n≥3.


The nitrogen atom on the nitrogen heterocycle of the diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles can coordinate with copper ions to improve the bonding strength of the polyimide film 20 and the copper foil 10.


Under a high temperature, the dianhydride monomer or the diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures can closely arrange liquid crystal structures in the polymer structure of the polyimide to form crystals, thereby reducing the mobility of a molecular structure of polyimide under high frequency electric field, and then reducing the dielectric loss of the polyimide film 20.


The dianhydride monomer or diamine monomer containing soft structures can adjust the rigidity caused by the crystals, and adjust the thermal expansion coefficient (CTE) of the polyimide film 20 to make the polyimide film 20 to match with the copper foil 10 to avoid copper clad warping.


The molar ratio of the dianhydride monomer to the diamine monomer is from 0.9 to 1.1.


The diamine monomer containing at least one liquid crystal structure and the diamine monomer containing at least one soft structure have a molar weight percentage of about 92% to about 97% of a total molar weight of the diamine monomer. The diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures has a molar weight percentage of about 30% to about 70% of a total molar weight of the diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures and the diamine monomer containing soft structures; the diamine monomer containing soft structures has a molar weight percentage of about 30% to about 70% of a total molar weight of the diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures and the diamine monomer containing soft structures; and a sum of the molar weight percentages of the diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures and the diamine monomer containing soft structures is 100%. The difference of the range of the molar weight percentage or the number of liquid crystal structures or soft structures of the polyamic acid composition may indirectly or directly affect the dielectric loss of the polyimide film 20 and the CTE value of the polyimide film 20.


The diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles has a molar weight percentage of about 3% to about 8% of the total molar weight of the diamine monomer, ensuring that a polyimide film made by the polyamic acid composition has a high adhesion strength and a high transparency. Experiment shows that, when the diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles has a molar weight percentage more than 8% of the total molar weight of the diamine monomer, an increasing rate of the adhesion strength of the polyimide film decrease, while the transparency of the polyimide film is decreased because of a high charge transfer effect during the process of the diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles absorbing light.


In at least one embodiment, the liquid crystal structures may be, but not limited to at least one of

FIG. 1 illustrates a flowchart of a method for manufacturing the polyamic acid in accordance with an exemplary embodiment. The exemplary method is provided by way of example, as there are a variety of ways to carry out the method. Each block shown in the figure represents one or more processes, methods, or subroutines, carried out in the exemplary method. Furthermore, the illustrated order of blocks is by example only and the order of the blocks can change. Additional blocks may be added or fewer blocks may be utilized, without departing from this disclosure. The exemplary method may begin at block 101.


At block 101, a diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures, a diamine monomer containing soft structures, and a diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles are added into a reaction flask having a solvent to form a first mixture.


At block 102, the first mixture is stirred at a high speed to make the diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures, the diamine monomer containing soft structures, and the diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles be completely dissolved in the solvent. In at least one embodiment, the stirring speed is 1400 rpm.


At block 103, at least one of a dianhydride monomer containing liquid crystal structures or a dianhydride monomer containing soft structures is added into the reaction flask to form a second mixture, and then, the second mixture is stirred for a period of time to have the second mixture react to form to a polyamic acid composition.


The solvent is a bipolar aprotic solvent. In at least one embodiment, the bipolar aprotic solvent may be selected from a group consisting of bimethyl formamide (DMF), dimethyl acetamide (DMAC), N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), or any combination thereof. The amount of the solvent may be adjusted, ensuring that all the above components may be dissolved in the solvent.


Referring to FIGS. 2-3, the copper clad laminate 100 is used to make a printed circuit board 200. The copper layer 10 has a low surface roughness. In at least one embodiment, the surface roughness of the copper layer 10 has a range from 0.12 um to 2.1 um. The polyimide film 20 is formed by coating the polyamic acid composition on the copper foil 10, and then cyclizing at a high temperature.


A principle of a cyclizing reaction at a high temperature to form the polyimide film 20 is as follows:




embedded image


As the polyamic acid composition includes the diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles, and the nitrogen atom on the nitrogen heterocycle of the diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles can coordinate with copper ions in a connecting surface of the copper foil 10, thereby the polyamic acid composition has strong binding force with the copper foil 10. The polyimide film 20 thereby formed by the polyamic acid composition has a strong binding force with the copper foil 10. The connecting surface of the copper foil 10 has a low surface roughness, thereby a surface of the polyimide film 20 formed on the connecting surface is smooth, thereby the polyimide film 20 has a high transparency.


The copper foil 10 is directly bonded to the polyimide film 20, and an adhesive layer is not disposed between the copper foil 10 and the polyimide film 20. Thus, the transparency of the polyimide film 20 can be further improved, and cost can be saved.


A polyimide film 20, the polyimide film 20 is formed by coating the polyamic acid composition on a base layer (such as the copper foil 10), and then cyclizing at a high temperature;


A method for making the copper clad laminate 100 including the following steps:


Firstly, a copper foil 10 is provided. The copper layer 10 has a low surface roughness. In at least one embodiment, the surface roughness of the copper layer 10 has a range from 0.12 um to 2.1 um.


Secondly, a polyamic acid composition is provided. The polyamic acid composition is a condensation reaction product of a dianhydride monomer and a diamine monomer. The dianhydride monomer includes at least one of a dianhydride monomer containing liquid crystal structures or a dianhydride monomer containing soft structures. The diamine monomer includes a diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures, a diamine monomer containing soft structures, and a diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles.


Thirdly, the polyamic acid composition is coated on a connecting surface of the copper foil 10.


Fourthly, the polyamic acid composition coated on the connecting surface is cyclized at a high temperature of about 300 degrees Celsius to about 400 degrees Celsius, to have the polyamic acid composition dehydrate and close loops, thereby forming a polyimide film 20 on the connecting surface of the copper foil 10, thereby forming the copper clad laminate 100.



FIG. 2 illustrates an embodiment of a printed circuit board 200. The printed circuit board 200 includes a circuit substrate 201, a covering film 202 attached to at least one surface of the circuit substrate 201, and at least one electronic component (not shown).


The circuit substrate 201 includes a polyimide film 20, and a conductive circuit layer 2011 attached to at least one surface of the polyimide film 20. The conductive circuit layer 2011 is formed by etching the copper foil 10 of the copper clad laminate 100. The covering film 202 is attached to the surface of the conductive circuit layer 2011 away from the polyimide film 20.

As can be seen from the table 1, examples 1 to 4 are the present disclosure for including a dianhydride monomer containing liquid crystal structures and a diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles, which still retain good peel strength with copper foil and can lower the dielectric loss Df value from 0.004 to 0.006, and comparative example 1 has a dielectric loss Df value of 0.014, because it did not contain a dianhydride monomer containing liquid crystal structures. In comparative Examples 2 to 4, since the dianhydride monomer containing liquid crystal structures was contained, the peeling strength with the copper foil was extremely lowered, due to the lack of the diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles. In comparative example 3, the diamine monomer containing soft structures was only used, and the CTE value was large that caused warpage of the copper clad laminate. In comparative example 4, the diamine monomer containing soft structures was not used, and the CTE value was low, that caused the copper clad plate to warp.


With the above configuration, the polyamic acid composition is a condensation reaction product of a dianhydride monomer and a diamine monomer. The dianhydride monomer includes at least one of a dianhydride monomer containing liquid crystal structures or a dianhydride monomer containing soft structures. The diamine monomer includes a diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures, a diamine monomer containing soft structures, and a diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles. The nitrogen atom on the nitrogen heterocycle of the diamine monomer containing nitrogen heterocycles can coordinate with copper ions to improve the bonding strength of the polyimide film 20 and the copper foil 10. Under a high temperature, the dianhydride monomer or the diamine monomer containing liquid crystal structures can closely arrange liquid crystal structures in the polymer structure of the polyimide to form crystals, thereby reducing the mobility of a molecular structure of polyimide under high frequency electric field, and then reducing the dielectric loss of the polyimide film 20.
