This application claims the benefit of priority to Taiwan Patent Application No. 111122319, filed on Jun. 16, 2022. The entire content of the above identified application is incorporated herein by reference.
Some references, which may include patents, patent applications and various publications, may be cited and discussed in the description of this disclosure. The citation and/or discussion of such references is provided merely to clarify the description of the present disclosure and is not an admission that any such reference is “prior art” to the disclosure described herein. All references cited and discussed in this specification are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties and to the same extent as if each reference was individually incorporated by reference.
The present disclosure relates to a rubber resin material and applications thereof, and more particularly to a rubber resin material with high thermal conductivity and low dielectric properties, and a metal substrate using the same such as a copper clad laminate (CCL).
With the advancement of the fifth generation wireless system (5G wireless system), high frequency transmission has undoubtedly become one of the main development trends in attempt to meet requirements of the 5G wireless system. Accordingly, relevant industries have strived to develop a high frequency substrate material for high frequency transmission (e.g., a frequency ranging from 6 GHz to 77 GHz), such that a high frequency substrate of the same material can be applied to a base station antenna, a satellite radar, an automotive radar, a wireless communication antenna, or a power amplifier.
Dielectric constant (Dk) and dielectric dissipation factor (Df) directly affect speed and quality of transmitted signals. Therefore, materials with a low dielectric constant and an ultra-low dielectric dissipation factor are required for 5G applications to improve signal delay and reduce signal loss. In addition, other properties such as a desired thermal conductivity and heat resistance are also required for the 5G applications. Hereinafter, the dielectric constant and the dielectric dissipation factor are collectively referred to as dielectric properties of the high frequency substrate.
A rubber resin material that is currently available on the market usually contains a certain amount of a liquid rubber. The liquid rubber has a high solubility and has a reactive functional group, so that the rubber resin material can be used as the high frequency substrate material. However, the liquid rubber cannot be added without limit. If an amount of the liquid rubber is higher than 25 wt %, a glass transition temperature (Tg) of the rubber resin material becomes lower, and a peeling strength of a substrate made from the low-dielectric rubber resin material becomes weaker.
The rubber resin material also contains a certain amount of thermal conductive fillers to increase a thermal conductivity thereof. Relative to 100 phr of a resin material, an amount of the thermal conductive fillers is within a range from greater than 45 phr, to 60 phr. However, an excessive amount of the thermal conductive fillers can negatively influence a compatibility between the resin material and the thermal conductive fillers. As a result, a thermal resistance of the substrate is decreased and the rubber resin material is not suitable to be applied to the high frequency substrate material.
In response to the above-referenced technical inadequacies, the present disclosure provides a rubber resin material with high thermal conductivity and low dielectric properties and a metal substrate using the same.
In one aspect, the present disclosure provides a rubber resin material with high thermal conductivity and low dielectric properties, which includes a rubber resin composition and a surface-modified inorganic filler. The rubber resin composition includes 30 wt % to 60 wt % of a liquid rubber, 10 wt % to 40 wt % of a polyphenylene ether resin, and 10 wt % to 40 wt % of a crosslinker. A molecular weight of the liquid rubber ranges from 2500 g/mol to 6000 g/mol. The at least one surface-modified inorganic filler has one or more modifying functional groups that are selected from the group consisting of an acrylic group, a functional group having a nitrogen-containing main or branched chain, a double bond-containing functional group, and an epoxy group.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler is selected from the group consisting of magnesium oxide, aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, zinc oxide, aluminum nitride, boron nitride, silicon carbide, and aluminum silicate that have the one or more modifying functional groups.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the liquid rubber is formed from at least one monomer of a styrene monomer, a butadiene monomer, a divinylbenzene monomer, and a maleic anhydride monomer.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the liquid rubber contains 30 mol % to 90 mol % of a vinyl end group and 10 mol % to 50 mol % of a styrene end group based on total end groups thereof.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, based on a total weight of the butadiene monomer being 100 wt %, 30 wt % to 90 wt % of the butadiene monomer have a vinyl-containing side chain.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the one or more modifying functional groups of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler consist of the acrylic group and the functional group having the nitrogen-containing main or branched chains.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, an amount of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler ranges from 20 phr to 300 phr relative to 100 phr of the rubber resin composition.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler is present in a particle form having a D50 particle size between 0.3 μm and 0.6 μm.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the rubber resin material further includes a siloxane coupling agent that has at least one of an acryl group and a vinyl group.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, an amount of the siloxane coupling agent ranges from 0.1 phr to 5 phr relative to 100 phr of the rubber resin composition.
In another aspect, the present disclosure provides a metal substrate that includes a substrate layer and at least one metal layer disposed on the substrate layer, and a material of the substrate layer includes the rubber resin material with high thermal conductivity and low dielectric properties that has the above-mentioned composition.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, a thermal conductivity of the metal substrate is higher than or equal to 1.2 W/m·K.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the metal substrate has a dielectric constant at 10 GHz that ranges from 3.2 to 4.0 and a dissipation factor at 10 GHz that is lower than 0.0030.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, a peeling strength of the metal substrate ranges from 4.5 lb/in to 7.0 lb/in.
Therefore, in the rubber resin material with high thermal conductivity and low dielectric properties and the metal substrate provided by the present disclosure, by virtue of the rubber resin composition including 30 wt % to 60 wt % of a liquid rubber, 10 wt % to 40 wt % of a polyphenylene ether resin, and 10 wt % to 40 wt % of a crosslinker, the molecular weight of the liquid rubber ranging from 2500 g/mol to 6000 g/mol, and the modifying functional groups of the surface-modified inorganic filler being selected from the group consisting of acrylic groups, functional groups having nitrogen-containing main or branched chains, double bond-containing functional groups, and epoxy groups, requisite physical properties for practical applications can be achieved, such as a thermal conductivity, dielectric properties, a peeling strength, and a heat resistance.

The present disclosure provides a rubber resin material with high thermal conductivity and low dielectric properties, in which at least one surface-modified inorganic filler is introduced into a rubber resin system. Accordingly, the rubber resin system can be provided with desired physical properties including a thermal conductivity and dielectric properties that meet requirements of high frequency and high speed applications. Therefore, the rubber resin material of the present disclosure is more suitable for being used as a high frequency high speed substrate material than other materials that are conventionally used.
More specifically, the rubber resin material of the present disclosure includes a rubber resin composition and at least one surface-modified inorganic filler uniformly dispersed in the rubber resin composition. The following description will illustrate the rubber resin composition and the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler in greater detail.
In the present disclosure, the rubber resin composition mainly includes: 30 wt % to 60 wt % of a liquid rubber, 10 wt % to 40 wt % of a polyphenylene ether resin, and 10 wt % to 40 wt % of a crosslinker.
It is worth mentioning that, when a molecular weight of the liquid rubber ranges from 2500 g/mol to 6000 g/mol, the rubber resin composition would have an increased flowability, such that the gap filling ability of the rubber resin material of the present disclosure can be improved. The molecular weight of the liquid rubber preferably ranges from 3000 g/mol to 5500 g/mol, and more preferably ranges from 3000 g/mol to 5000 g/mol. The liquid rubber has a high solubility, which can increase a compatibility between components of the rubber resin composition. Furthermore, the liquid rubber contains reactive functional groups, which can increase a degree of crosslinking of the rubber resin material after being cured.
In addition, the liquid rubber has a specific molecular weight and molecular structure and is derived from specific monomers. Therefore, the liquid rubber can be added to the rubber resin composition in a greater amount, i.e., an amount of the liquid rubber in the rubber resin composition can be increased greatly. More specifically, based on a total weight of the rubber resin composition being 100 wt %, the amount of the liquid rubber can be higher than 40 wt %, and is significantly higher than an amount of the liquid rubber in a rubber resin composition of the related art, which is about 25 wt %. Preferably, the amount of the liquid rubber in the rubber resin composition ranges from 30 wt % to 60 wt %.
In certain embodiments, the liquid rubber includes a liquid diene rubber. Specifically, the liquid diene rubber includes a polybutadiene resin. The polybutadiene resin is a polymer polymerized from a butadiene monomer, such as a butadiene homopolymer or a copolymer formed from butadiene and other monomers.
In certain embodiments, the liquid diene rubber is a copolymer formed from butadiene and styrene. In other words, monomers forming the liquid rubber include styrene and butadiene monomers. The styrene and butadiene monomers can be randomly arranged to form a random copolymer, or can be regularly arranged to form an alternating copolymer or a block copolymer.
Based on a total weight of the liquid rubber being 100 wt %, an amount of the styrene monomer ranges from 10 wt % to 50 wt %. When the amount of the styrene monomer in the liquid rubber ranges from 10 wt % to 50 wt %, the liquid rubber can have a molecular geometric structure similar to an arrangement of liquid crystals, thereby increasing a heat resistance and a system compatibility. Preferably, the amount of the styrene monomer in the liquid rubber ranges from 15 wt % to 50 wt % of the styrene monomer. If the amount of the styrene monomer is higher than 50 wt %, the rubber resin material may have a viscosity that is disadvantageous for manufacturing a metal substrate with high thermal conductivity.
Specifically, the butadiene monomer has two double bonds. Thus, different ways of polymerizing the butadiene monomer can result in different structures of the polybutadiene resin. In other words, the polybutadiene resin can include one or more structures of: cis-1,4-polybutadiene, trans-1,4-polybutadiene, and 1,2-polybutadiene. More specifically, when the butadiene monomer is polymerized through a 1,4-addition reaction, the structure of cis-1,4-polybutadiene or trans-1,4-polybutadiene containing no unsaturated side chains would be formed. When the butadiene monomer is polymerized through a 1,2-addition reaction, the structure of 1,2-polybutadiene containing an unsaturated side chain (e.g., a vinyl group) would be formed.
Preferably, based on a total weight of the butadiene monomer being 100 wt %, 30 wt % to 90 wt % of the butadiene monomer after polymerization have a vinyl-containing side chain. Preferably, based on the total weight of the butadiene monomer being 100 wt %, 30 wt % to 80 wt % of the butadiene monomer after polymerization have a vinyl-containing side chain.
When the liquid rubber contains at least one vinyl-containing unsaturated side chain (or a vinyl group), a crosslinking density and heat resistance of the rubber resin composition after being crosslinked can be increased. In the present disclosure, an amount of the at least one vinyl-containing unsaturated side chain (or a vinyl group) in the liquid rubber can be quantified by an iodine value in a chemistry analysis. The higher the amount of the at least one vinyl-containing unsaturated side chain (or a vinyl group) in the liquid rubber is, the higher the iodine value of the liquid rubber is. The rubber resin composition after being crosslinked can have increased physical properties due to the at least one vinyl-containing unsaturated side chain (or a vinyl group). In the present disclosure, the iodine value of the liquid rubber ranges from 30 g/100 g to 60 g/100 g.
In an exemplary method for measurement of the iodine value of the liquid rubber, 0.3 mg to 1 mg of the liquid rubber is completely dissolved in chloroform, and is placed in the dark for 30 minutes after a Wijs solution is added thereinto. Next, 20 ml of a potassium iodide solution (100 g/L) and 100 ml of water are added to form an analyte. Afterwards, the analyte is titrated by a sodium thiosulfate solution (0.1 mol/L). When a color of the analyte becomes light yellow, a few drops of a starch solution (10 g/L) are dripped into the analyte. Then, the analyte is further titrated until a blue color of the analyte disappears.
In certain embodiments, the liquid diene rubber is a copolymer formed from styrene, butadiene, divinylbenzene, and maleic anhydride monomers. In other words, the monomers forming the liquid rubber include styrene, butadiene, divinylbenzene, and maleic anhydride monomers. The styrene, butadiene, divinylbenzene, and maleic anhydride monomers can be in a regular or random arrangement. Based on a total weight of the styrene, butadiene, divinylbenzene, and maleic anhydride monomers being 100 mol %, an amount of the butadiene monomer ranges from 30 mol % to 90 mol %, an amount of the styrene monomer ranges from 10 mol % to 50 mol %, an amount of the divinylbenzene monomer ranges from 10 mol % to 40 mol %, and an amount of the maleic anhydride monomer ranges from 2 mol % to 20 mol %.
A molecular weight of the polyphenylene ether resin ranges from 1000 g/mol to 20000 g/mol. Preferably, the molecular weight of the polyphenylene ether resin ranges from 2000 g/mol to 10000 g/mol. More preferably, the molecular weight of the polyphenylene ether resin ranges from 2000 g/mol to 2200 g/mol. It should be noted that, the polyphenylene ether resin has a better solvent solubility when a molecular weight thereof is lower than 20000 g/mol, which is advantageous for preparing the rubber resin composition.
Preferably, the polyphenylene ether resin can have at least one modifying group. The at least one modifying group can be selected from the group consisting of: a hydroxyl group, an amino group, a vinyl group, a styrene group, a methacrylate group, and an epoxy group. The at least one modifying group of the polyphenylene ether resin can provide one or more unsaturated bonds to facilitate a crosslinking reaction. Accordingly, a material having a high glass transition temperature and a good heat resistance can be obtained. In the present embodiment, two opposite ends of the molecular structure of the polyphenylene ether resin each have a modifying group, and the two modifying groups are the same.
Preferably, the polyphenylene ether resin can include one kind of polyphenylene ether or various kinds of polyphenylene ether.
For example, the polyethylene ether can be a product under the name of SA90 (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two hydroxyl modifying groups at molecular ends thereof) or SA9000 (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two methacrylate modifying groups at molecular ends thereof) available from SABIC Innovative Plastics or a product under the name of OPE-2st (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two styrene modifying groups at molecular ends thereof), OPE-2EA (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two methacrylate modifying groups at molecular ends thereof), or OPE-2Gly (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two epoxy modifying groups at molecular ends thereof) available from Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, Inc. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
For example, the polyethylene ether can be a polyphenylene ether that has two hydroxyl modifying groups at molecular ends thereof, a polyphenylene ether that has two methacrylate modifying groups at molecular ends thereof, a polyphenylene ether that has two styrene modifying groups at molecular ends thereof, or a polyphenylene ether that has two epoxy modifying groups at molecular ends thereof. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
In certain embodiments, the polyphenylene ether resin can include a first polyphenylene ether and a second polyphenylene ether. Molecular ends of both the first polyphenylene ether and the second polyphenylene ether each have at least one modifying group. The at least one modifying group can be selected from the group consisting of: a hydroxyl group, an amino group, a vinyl group, a styrene group, a methacrylate group, and an epoxy group. In addition, the at least one modifying group of the first polyphenylene ether and the at least one modifying group of the second polyphenylene ether can be different from each other. Specifically, a weight ratio of the first polyphenylene ether to the second polyphenylene ether ranges from 0.5 to 1.5. Preferably, the weight ratio of the first polyphenylene ether to the second polyphenylene ether ranges from 0.75 to 1.25. More preferably, the weight ratio of the first polyphenylene ether to the second polyphenylene ether is 1.
For example, the first polyphenylene ether and the second polyphenylene can each be independently a polyphenylene ether that has two hydroxyl modifying groups at molecular ends thereof, a polyphenylene ether that has two methacrylate modifying groups at molecular ends thereof, a polyphenylene ether that has two styrene modifying groups at molecular ends thereof, or a polyphenylene ether that has two epoxy modifying groups at molecular ends thereof. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
For example, the first polyphenylene ether and the second polyphenylene can each be independently a product under the name of SA90 (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two hydroxyl modifying groups at molecular ends thereof) or SA9000 (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two methacrylate modifying groups at molecular ends thereof) available from SABIC Innovative Plastics or a product under the name of OPE-2st (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two styrene modifying groups at molecular ends thereof), OPE-2EA (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two methacrylate modifying groups at molecular ends thereof), or OPE-2Gly (i.e., a polyphenylene ether that has two epoxy modifying groups at molecular ends thereof) available from Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, Inc. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
The crosslinker of the present disclosure can increase a crosslinking degree of the polyphenylene ether resin and the liquid rubber. In the present embodiment, the crosslinker can include an allyl group. For example, the crosslinker can be triallyl cyanurate (TAC), triallyl isocyanurate (TAIC), diallyl phthalate, divinylbenzene, triallyl trimellitate, or any combination thereof. Preferably, the crosslinker can be triallyl isocyanurate. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
The at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can be added to increase the thermal conductivity of the rubber resin material and maintain the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the rubber resin material at a relatively low level in actual applications. The above description provides an overview of the effect of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. In practice, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler exhibits a better bonding strength and compatibility with a copper foil and a resin. Furthermore, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can achieve other beneficial effects, such as increasing a heat resistance of the rubber resin material, reducing a viscosity of the rubber resin material, and increasing a peeling strength of a copper clad laminate.
In the present disclosure, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can be selected from the group consisting of magnesium oxide (MgO), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), silicon oxide (SiO2), zinc oxide (ZnO), aluminum nitride (AlN), boron nitride (BN)e, silicon carbide (SiC), and aluminum silicate (Al2O3·SiO2), each of which has one or more modifying functional groups on a surface thereof (i.e. has a surface covered by a sufficient number of the one or more modifying functional groups). However, such examples are not intended to limit the present disclosure. In a preferable embodiment, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler consists of silicon oxide and boron nitride that have one or more modifying functional groups.
More specifically, the one or more modifying functional groups of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler are selected from the group consisting of acrylic groups, functional groups having nitrogen-containing main or branched chains, double bond-containing functional groups, and epoxy groups. Preferably, the one or more modifying functional groups of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler are acrylic groups, functional groups having nitrogen-containing main or branched chains, or the combination thereof. Accordingly, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler is able to react with the liquid rubber, such that the rubber resin composition has a better compatibility without negatively influencing a heat resistance of a metal substrate with high thermal conductivity. Furthermore, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can be added in a greater amount to the rubber resin material, which is higher than an upper limit for addition of at least one inorganic filler in a rubber resin material of the related art. Therefore, the rubber resin material is more suitable to be used as a high frequency substrate material.
In certain embodiments, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler has a functional group having a nitrogen-containing main or branched chain by modification of a nitrogen-containing silane compound that has a structure represented by formula (1).
It should be noted that, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can be formed from a single inorganic powder or a mixture of different inorganic powders and by full or partial surface-treatment. In a specific example of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler that includes aluminum oxide and boron nitride, the aluminum oxide is surface-modified to have an acrylic group or a vinyl group and the boron nitride is not surface-modified. The above description is for exemplary purposes only and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure.
In a preferable embodiment, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler includes aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, and boron nitride. Relative to 100 phr of the rubber resin composition, an amount of the aluminum oxide ranges from 50 phr to 120 phr, an amount of the boron nitride ranges from 10 phr to 100 phr, and an amount of the boron nitride ranges from 30 phr to 80 phr.
In practice, a modifying method of an inorganic filler includes impregnating the inorganic filler with a silane having a specific functional group (e.g., a silane having an acrylic group or a vinyl group). Accordingly, the inorganic filler can have at least one of an acrylic group and a vinyl group.
An amount of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can be adjusted according to product requirements. In certain embodiments, based on the total weight of the rubber resin composition being 100 phr, the amount of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler ranges from 20 phr to 250 phr. Preferably, based on the total weight of the rubber resin composition being 100 phr, the amount of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler ranges from 100 phr to 150 phr. More preferably, based on the total weight of the rubber resin composition being 100 phr, the amount of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler ranges from 120 phr to 130 phr. The above description is for exemplary purposes only and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure.
An appearance of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can be granular or flaky, and is preferably flaky. A D50 particle size of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can range from 0.3 μm to 3 μm. Preferably, the D50 particle size of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler ranges from 0.3 μm and 0.6 μm. Accordingly, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can be uniformly dispersed in the rubber resin composition, thereby enhancing the above-mentioned beneficial effects, especially thermal conductivity and low dielectric properties. It should be noted that when the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler has a D50 particle size within the range mentioned above, a larger specific surface area can be provided to enhance a surface modification effect, which is advantageous for drilling processing of a metal substrate.
The rubber resin material can further include a siloxane coupling agent. One end of the siloxane coupling agent is a silicone end that is able to bond with inorganic substances, and another one end of the siloxane coupling agent has a functional group that is able to bond with a rubber or resin. Therefore, an addition of the siloxane coupling agent can increase a reactivity and a compatibility among a fiber cloth, a rubber resin composition and inorganic fillers, thereby increasing a peeling strength and a heat resistance of a metal substrate.
In a preferable embodiment, the siloxane coupling agent has at least one of an acryl group and a vinyl group. A molecular weight of the siloxane coupling agent ranges from 100 g/mol to 500 g/mol. Preferably, the molecular weight of the siloxane coupling agent ranges from 110 g/mol to 250 g/mol. More preferably, the molecular weight of the siloxane coupling agent ranges from 120 g/mol to 200 g/mol.
Relative to 100 phr of the rubber resin composition, an amount of the siloxane coupling agent ranges from 0.1 phr to 5 phr. Preferably, relative to 100 phr of the rubber resin composition, the amount of the siloxane coupling agent ranges from 0.5 phr to 3 phr.
The rubber resin material can further include a flame retardant that is added to increase a flame retardant property of a high frequency substrate. For example, the flame retardant can be a phosphorus flame retardant or a brominated flame retardant. Preferably, the flame retardant is a halogen-free flame retardant, i.e., the flame retardant does not contain halogen.
The brominated flame retardant can be ethylene bistetrabromophthalimide, tetradecabromodiphenoxy benzene, decabromo diphenoxy oxide, or any combination thereof, but is not limited thereto.
The phosphorus flame retardant can be sulphosuccinic acid ester, phosphazene, ammonium polyphosphate, melamine polyphosphate, or melamine cyanurate. Examples of the sulphosuccinic acid ester include triphenyl phosphate (TPP), tetraphenyl resorcinol bis(diphenylphosphate) (RDP), bisphenol A bis(diphenyl phosphate) (BPAPP), bisphenol A bis(dimethyl phosphate) (BBC), resorcinol diphosphate (e.g., the product under the name of CR-733S produced by Daihachi Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), and resorcinol-bis(di-2,6-dimethylphenyl phosphate) (e.g., the product under the name of PX-200 produced by Daihachi Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.). However, such examples are not intended to limit the present disclosure.
An amount of the flame retardant can be adjusted according to product requirements. In certain embodiments, relative to 100 phr of the rubber resin composition, the amount of the flame retardant ranges from 0.1 phr to 5 phr.
Referring to
More specifically, a dielectric constant of the metal substrate Z at 10 GHz ranges from 3.2 to 4, preferably ranges from 3.3 to 3.9, and more preferably ranges from 3.4 to 3.8.

A peeling strength of the metal substrate Z ranges from 4.5 lb/in to 7.0 lb/in, and preferably ranges from 5 lb/in to 7.0 lb/in.
The properties of the metal substrate Z are measured by the following methods.
In conclusion, in the rubber resin material with high thermal conductivity and low dielectric properties and the metal substrate provided by the present disclosure, by virtue of the rubber resin composition including 30 wt % to 60 wt % of a liquid rubber, 10 wt % to 40 wt % of a polyphenylene ether resin, and 10 wt % to 40 wt % of a crosslinker, the molecular weight of the liquid rubber ranging from 2500 g/mol to 6000 g/mol, and the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler having one or more modifying functional groups that are selected from the group consisting of an acrylic group, a functional group having a nitrogen-containing main or branched chain, a double bond-containing functional group, and an epoxy group, requisite physical properties for practical applications can be achieved, such as a thermal conductivity, dielectric properties, a peeling strength, and a heat resistance.
More specifically, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler has one or more modifying functional groups that are selected from the group consisting of an acrylic group, a functional group having a nitrogen-containing main or branched chain, a double bond-containing functional group, and an epoxy group. Therefore, an addition of the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can increase the thermal conductivity of the rubber resin material and maintain the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the rubber resin material at a relatively low level in actual applications. Furthermore, a reactivity and a compatibility among a fiber cloth, a resin and inorganic fillers can be increased. In addition, the at least one surface-modified inorganic filler can achieve other beneficial effects, such as increasing a heat resistance of the rubber resin material, reducing a viscosity of the rubber resin material, and increasing a peeling strength of a copper clad laminate.
