The present disclosure relates to a resin composition and more particularly to a resin composition useful for preparing a prepreg, a resin film, a laminate or a printed circuit board.
In recent years, due to the development of electronic signal transmission toward 5G and the trend of miniaturization and high performance of electronic equipment, communication devices and personal computers, circuit boards were also developed toward multi-layer configuration, high density trace interconnection, and high speed signal transmission, thereby presenting higher challenges to the overall performance of circuit laminates such as copper-clad laminates.
In order to improve the dielectric properties of a circuit laminate, conventional technology primarily focuses on adjusting the type or ratio of the components of the raw material resin composition. For example, compounds containing hydrocarbons have been used in existing resin materials to improve dielectric properties. However, an article made from the resin materials such as a laminate still fails to meet the demands in properties.
To overcome the problems of prior arts, particularly one or more above-mentioned property demands facing conventional materials, it is a primary object of the present disclosure to provide a resin composition and an article made therefrom which may overcome at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems.
To achieve the above-mentioned objects, the present disclosure provides a resin composition, comprising a polymer (hereafter also referred to as the “polymer of the present disclosure”) which has a first structural unit of Formula (1) and a second structural unit of Formula (2):
For example, in one embodiment, the resin composition further comprises inorganic filler, flame retardant, curing accelerator, polymerization inhibitor, solvent, silane coupling agent, coloring agent, toughening agent, or a combination thereof.
For example, in one embodiment, the resin composition further comprises a multi-functional aromatic vinyl group-containing compound.
For example, in one embodiment, the resin composition comprises 100 parts by weight of the polymer and 5 to 30 parts by weight of the multi-functional aromatic vinyl group-containing compound.
For example, in one embodiment, the multi-functional aromatic vinyl group-containing compound comprises a compound of Formula (7), a compound of Formula (8) or a combination thereof:
To achieve the above-mentioned objects, the present disclosure further provides an article made from the resin composition, including a prepreg, a resin film, a laminate or a printed circuit board.

As used herein, the term “comprises,” “comprising,” “includes,” “including,” “encompass,” “encompassing,” “has,” “having” or any other variant thereof is construed as an open-ended transitional phrase intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a composition or article of manufacture that comprises a list of elements is not necessarily limited to only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed but inherent to such composition or article of manufacture. Further, unless expressly stated to the contrary, the term “or” refers to an inclusive or and not to an exclusive or. For example, a condition “A or B” is satisfied by any one of the following: A is true (or present) and B is false (or not present), A is false (or not present) and B is true (or present), and both A and B are true (or present). In addition, whenever open-ended transitional phrases are used, such as “comprises,” “comprising,” “includes,” “including,” “encompass,” “encompassing,” “has,” “having” or any other variant thereof, it is understood that transitional phrases such as “consisting essentially of” and “consisting of” are also disclosed and included.
In this disclosure, features or conditions presented as a numerical range or a percentage range are merely for convenience and brevity. Therefore, a numerical range or a percentage range should be interpreted as encompassing and specifically disclosing all possible subranges and individual numerals or values therein, particularly all integers therein. For example, a range of “1 to 8” should be understood as explicitly disclosing all subranges such as 1 to 7, 2 to 8, 2 to 6, 3 to 6, 4 to 8, 3 to 8 and so on, particularly all subranges defined by integers, as well as disclosing all individual values such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. Similarly, a range of “between 1 and 8” should be understood as explicitly disclosing all ranges such as 1 to 8, 1 to 7, 2 to 8, 2 to 6, 3 to 6, 4 to 8, 3 to 8 and so on and encompassing the end points of the ranges. Unless otherwise defined, the aforesaid interpretation rule should be applied throughout the present disclosure regardless broadness of the scope.
Whenever amount, concentration or other numeral or parameter is expressed as a range, a preferred range or a series of upper and lower limits, it is understood that all ranges defined by any pair of the upper limit or preferred value and the lower limit or preferred value are specifically disclosed, regardless whether these ranges are explicitly described or not. In addition, unless otherwise defined, whenever a range is mentioned, the range should be interpreted as inclusive of the endpoints and every integers and fractions in the range.
Given the intended purposes and advantages of this disclosure are achieved, numerals or FIGURES have the precision of their significant digits. For example, 40.0 should be understood as covering a range of 39.50 to 40.49.
As used herein, a Markush group or a list of items is used to describe examples or embodiments of the present disclosure. A skilled artisan will appreciate that all subgroups of members or items and individual members or items of the Markush group or list can also be used to describe the present disclosure. For example, when X is described as being “selected from a group consisting of X1, X2 and X3,” it is intended to disclose the situations of X is X1 and X is X1 and/or X2 and/or X3. In addition, when a Markush group or a list of items is used to describe examples or embodiments of the present disclosure, a skilled artisan will understand that any subgroup or any combination of the members or items in the Markush group or list may also be used to describe the present disclosure. Therefore, for example, when X is described as being “selected from a group consisting of X1, X2 and X3” and Y is described as being “selected from a group consisting of Y1, Y2 and Y3,” the disclosure shall be interpreted as any combination of X is X1 or X2 or X3 and Y is Y1 or Y2 or Y3.

Compositions (in part by weight) and test results of resin compositions of Examples and Comparative Examples are listed below, wherein the part by weight refers to the amount, in part by weight, of each component with a solid content of 100%. For example, Example E1 contains 100 parts by weight of Polymer P1, indicating the amount of Polymer P1, with a solid content of 100%, is 100 parts by weight.
Samples (specimens) for the properties measured above were prepared as described below and tested and analyzed under specified conditions below.
For each sample, test items and test methods are described below.
The aforesaid copper-free laminate 1 (obtained by laminating two prepregs, resin content of about 70%) was subject to dielectric constant measurement. Each sample was measured by using a microwave dielectrometer (available from AET Corp.) by reference to JIS C2565 at room temperature (about 25° C.) and under 10 GHz frequency to obtain the dielectric constant. Lower dielectric constant represents better dielectric properties of the sample. Under a 10 GHz frequency, for a low Dk material, a difference in Dk of less than 0.15 represents no substantial difference (i.e., no significant technical difficulty) in dielectric constant in different laminates, and a difference in Dk of greater than or equal to 0.15 represents a significant difference (i.e., significant technical difficulty) in dielectric constant in different laminates.
The aforesaid copper-free laminate 1 (obtained by laminating two prepregs, having a resin content of about 70%) was subject to dissipation factor measurement. Each sample was measured by using a microwave dielectrometer (available from AET Corp.) by reference to JIS C2565 at room temperature (about 25° C.) and under 10 GHz frequency to obtain the dissipation factor. Lower dissipation factor represents better dielectric properties of the sample. Under a 10 GHz frequency, for a Df value of between 0.0010 and 0.0030, a difference in Df of less than 0.0005 represents no substantial difference (i.e., no significant technical difficulty) in dissipation factor of laminates, and a difference in Df of greater than or equal to 0.0005 represents a significant difference (i.e., significant technical difficulty) in dissipation factor in different laminates.
A copper-containing laminate 2 (obtained by laminating six prepregs) was cut into a rectangular sample with a width of 24 mm and a length of 80 mm, which was etched to remove surface copper foil to leave a rectangular copper foil with a width of 3.18 mm and a length of greater than 60 mm, and tested by using a tensile strength tester by reference to IPC-TM-650 2.4.8 at room temperature (about 25° C.) to measure the 0.5-ounce (half-ounce) copper foil peeling strength (0.5 oz P/S, in lb/in). In the technical field to which the present disclosure pertains, higher copper foil peeling strength is better. Generally, laminates with a resin content of about 70% having a difference in copper foil peeling strength (0.5-ounce) of greater than or equal to 0.3 lb/in represents a substantial difference (i.e., significant technical difficulty) in copper foil peeling strength (0.5-ounce) in different laminates.
A copper-free laminate 2 (obtained by laminating six prepregs) was prepared and cut into a sample with a length of 10 cm and a width of 10 cm, which was subject to the measurement of the warpage after 30 minutes of thermal treatment at 200° C. The measurement method was to place the aforementioned sample on a marble platform, and a height gauge was used to measure the vertical distance (in mm) from one corner with the maximum warpage to the plane of the marble. In the warpage measurement, the number of samples was 6, and the average distance was taken. In the technical field to which the present disclosure pertains, lower warpage at high temperature is better. Generally, a difference in warpage at high temperature of greater than or equal to 0.2 mm represents a substantial difference (i.e., significant technical difficulty) in different samples.
The following observations can be made from Table 3 to Table 5.
In contrast with examples using the polymer of the present disclosure (Examples E1-E14), Comparative Examples C1-C5 using other polymers fail to achieve satisfactory results in at least one property including dielectric constant, dissipation factor, copper foil peeling strength and warpage at high temperature. In contrast with Comparative Examples C1 to C5, Examples E1 to E14 using the polymer of the present disclosure can achieve at the same time a lower dielectric constant (a dielectric constant at 10 GHz as measured by reference to JIS C2565 of less than or equal to 2.77), a lower dissipation factor (a dissipation factor at 10 GHz as measured by reference to JIS C2565 of less than or equal to 0.00168), a higher copper foil peeling strength (a copper foil peeling strength as measured by reference to IPC-TM-650 2.4.8 of greater than or equal to 3.31 lb/in) and a lower warpage at high temperature (a warpage as measured after 30 minutes of thermal treatment at 200° C. of less than or equal to 1.93 mm). In addition, if the polymer of the present disclosure and one or more multi-functional aromatic vinyl group-containing compounds are used at the same time, further improvements can be obtained in at least one or more of the aforementioned properties.
