Abstract
Description
本発明の樹脂組成物、樹脂硬化物および複合成形体は、例えばパワー半導体デバイス用の放熱シートとして好適に用いることができる。
パワー半導体デバイスは、一般的には、複数の半導体デバイスを共通のヒートシンク上に配してパッケージングしたパワー半導体モジュールとして利用される。
セラミックス基板の場合は、銅板との焼結により一体化させるため、界面での剥離は起き難い。しかし、放熱樹脂シートでは、硬化膜の加熱圧着により一体化されるため界面剥離を起こし易い。
本発明者はまた、貯蔵弾性率及び重量増加率が特定範囲である樹脂硬化物を用いることにより、吸湿リフロー耐性に優れ、界面剥離の問題を解決することができることを見出した。
本発明の樹脂組成物は樹脂及び凝集無機フィラーを含み、該樹脂組成物の硬化後の85℃、85%RHでの重量増加率が0.80%以下であり、無機フィラーを除く該樹脂組成物の硬化物の200℃における貯蔵弾性率が1.0×107Pa以上である。
本発明の無機フィラーを除く樹脂組成物の硬化後の200℃における貯蔵弾性率は、1.0×107Pa以上である。この貯蔵弾性率が1×107Pa未満であると、本発明の樹脂組成物を硬化して得られる樹脂硬化物(以下、単に「樹脂硬化物」と称す。)の強度が低く、そのため吸湿リフロー試験において、内部にボイドが発生することで絶縁性能が低下したり、本発明の樹脂組成物の硬化物からなる硬化物部と、金属部とを有する複合成形体にあっては、金属部と硬化物部との界面が剥離したりすることがある。
吸湿リフロー試験後の性能保持の観点から、この貯蔵弾性率は1.3×107Pa以上であることが好ましく、1.5×107Pa以上であることがより好ましく、1.7×107Pa以上であることがさらに好ましい。
一方、この貯蔵弾性率は5×109Pa以下であることが好ましく、1×109Pa以下であることがより好ましく、5×108Pa以下であることがより好ましい。貯蔵弾性率が上記上限値以下であると、吸湿リフロー試験を経ることで発生する内部応力が過剰となることを抑制でき、得られる樹脂硬化物の割れや、金属部と樹脂硬化物部との界面剥離を抑制できる傾向にある。
また、貯蔵弾性率が上記範囲であることで、後述する被着体である金属の凹凸に樹脂組成物の硬化物が入り易くなり、凹凸に入り込んだ樹脂硬化物が強固なアンカー効果を発現し、金属と樹脂硬化物との密着性が向上する傾向にある。
本発明の樹脂組成物(無機フィラーを含む)の硬化後において、85℃、85%RHでの重量増加率が0.8%以下である。この重量増加率が0.8%を超えるものは、吸湿リフロー試験後の高い絶縁性維持、界面剥離の防止という、本発明の課題を解決し得ない。
吸湿リフロー試験後の高い絶縁性維持、界面剥離の防止の観点から、この重量増加率は小さい程好ましく、0.75%以下が好ましく、0.7%以下がより好ましい。重量増加率の下限は特に限定されないが、樹脂硬化物の強度と絶縁性能との両立や製膜性の観点から、例えば0.2%以上である。
本発明は、樹脂組成物は硬化後の85℃、85%RHでの重量増加率が上記特定の範囲であることで、本発明の課題を解決できることを見出したことに基くものである。
本発明の樹脂組成物に含まれる樹脂としては、硬化後に特定の貯蔵弾性率及び重量増加率となるものであれば特に限定されない。例えば、硬化剤や硬化触媒の存在下で熱又は光硬化するものが挙げられる。特に熱硬化性樹脂であることが、製造容易性の点から好ましい。
エポキシ樹脂とは、分子内に1個以上のオキシラン環(エポキシ基)を有する化合物の総称である。エポキシ樹脂に含まれるオキシラン環(エポキシ基)は脂環式エポキシ基、グリシジル基のどちらでも構わない
本発明の樹脂組成物は、一分子内に3個以上のオキシラン環(エポキシ基)を有するエポキシ樹脂(以下、「多官能エポキシ樹脂」と称す場合がある。)を含むことが好ましい。本発明の樹脂組成物が多官能エポキシ樹脂を含むことにより、極性の高いオキシラン環(エポキシ基)を高密度で導入することが可能となる。それにより、ファンデルワールス力や水素結合といった物理的相互作用の効果が増し、複合成形体における金属と樹脂硬化物との密着性を向上させることができる傾向にある。
また、多官能エポキシ樹脂を含むことにより、樹脂硬化物の貯蔵弾性率を前述した特定範囲とし易い傾向にあり、金属と樹脂硬化物との密着性が向上する傾向にある。
さらに、オキシラン環(エポキシ基)の反応性を向上させることで、硬化反応途中の水酸基量を減らし、吸湿性の増加を抑制することができる傾向がある。
本発明の樹脂組成物中の樹脂は、ビフェニル構造を有する重量平均分子量が10,000以上であるエポキシ樹脂(以下、「特定エポキシ樹脂」と称す場合がある。)を含むことが好ましい。
吸湿量を低減するという観点から、特定エポキシ樹脂は疎水性構造である構造(1)、(2)、(3)を多く含むものが好ましい。
エポキシ当量は、「1当量のエポキシ基を含むエポキシ樹脂の重量」と定義され、JIS K7236に準じて測定することができる。
特に本発明の樹脂組成物は、エポキシ樹脂として、特定エポキシ樹脂と多官能エポキシ樹脂とを共に含有することが、樹脂組成物の硬化物の高弾性化と低吸湿性の両立の面で好ましい。
本発明の樹脂組成物は、特定エポキシ樹脂および多官能エポキシ樹脂以外のエポキシ樹脂を含有していてもよい。本発明の樹脂組成物に含まれる特定エポキシ樹脂および多官能エポキシ樹脂以外のエポキシ樹脂としては、特に制限はないが、例えばビスフェノールA型エポキシ樹脂、ビスフェノールF型エポキシ樹脂等のビスフェノール類をグリシジル化した各種ビスフェノール型エポキシ樹脂、ビフェニル類をグリシジル化した各種ビフェニル型のエポキシ樹脂、ジヒドロキシナフタレン、9,9-ビス(4-ヒドロキシフェニル)フルオレンなどの2つの水酸基を有する芳香族性を有する化合物類をグリシジル化したエポキシ樹脂、1,1,1-トリス(4-ヒドロキシフェニル)メタンなどのトリスフェノール類をグリシジル化したエポキシ樹脂、1,1,2,2-テトラキス(4-ヒドロキシフェニル)エタンなどのテトラキスフェノール類をグリシジル化したエポキシ樹脂、フェノールノボラック、クレゾールノボラック、ビスフェノールAノボラック、臭素化ビスフェノールAノボラックなどのノボラック類をグリシジル化したノボラック型エポキシ樹脂、およびシリコーン含有エポキシ樹脂から選ばれる1種又は2種以上が好ましい。

凝集無機フィラーは、表面処理剤により表面処理がされていてもよい。表面処理剤は、公知の表面処理剤を用いることができる。
窒化ホウ素は熱伝導性の高いものであるが、鱗片状であるため、面方向には熱伝導性に優れるが、面に垂直な方向には熱抵抗が大きい。このような鱗片状の粒子を集めて球状に凝集させた凝集粒子は取り扱い性にも優れるため好ましい。
窒化ホウ素凝集粒子としては、窒化ホウ素の粒子を面方向に整列させて凝集粒子の径方向が熱伝導のよい方向となるようにしたものが好ましい。
「カードハウス構造」は、例えばセラミックス 43 No.2(2008年 日本セラミックス協会発行)に記載されており、板状粒子が配向せず複雑に積層した構造である。より具体的には、カードハウス構造を有する窒化ホウ素凝集粒子とは、窒化ホウ素一次粒子の集合体であって、一次粒子の平面部と端面部が接触し、例えばT字型の会合体を形成する構造を有する窒化ホウ素凝集粒子である。
体積平均粒子径の測定方法は、分散安定剤としてヘキサメタリン酸ナトリウムを含有する純水媒体中に凝集粒子を分散させた試料に対して、レーザー回折/散乱式粒度分布測定装置などを用いて測定する湿式測定法や、Malvern社製「Morphologi」を用いて測定する乾式測定法が挙げられる。

本発明の樹脂組成物は、無機フィラーとして凝集無機フィラーと共に非凝集無機フィラーを含んでいてもよい。
本発明の樹脂組成物には、本発明の効果を損なうことのない範囲において、上記以外のその他の成分が含まれていてもよい。その他の成分としては、窒素原子を含有する複素環構造を有する化合物、硬化剤、硬化触媒、無機フィラーと樹脂との界面接着強度を改善するシランカップリング剤などの表面処理剤、還元剤等の絶縁性炭素成分、粘度調整剤、分散剤、チキソ性付与剤、難燃剤、着色剤、有機フィラー、有機溶剤、熱可塑性樹脂等が挙げられる。

窒素含有複素環化合物は、1分子中に複数の復素環構造を同時に有していても構わない。
樹脂組成物の絶縁性、金属との密着性の向上の観点から、窒素含有複素環化合物としてはイミダゾール系化合物やトリアジン系化合物が好ましい。
本発明の樹脂組成物は硬化剤を含んでいてもよい。
樹脂組成物の柔軟性および難燃性のより一層の向上、樹脂硬化物の力学物性および耐熱性向上のためには、剛直な主鎖骨格を持つノボラック型フェノール樹脂やトリアジン骨格を有するフェノール樹脂が好ましい。
未硬化の樹脂組成物の柔軟性および樹脂硬化物の靭性向上のためにはアリル基を有するフェノール樹脂が好ましい。
また、樹脂組成物に硬化剤を含む場合、樹脂組成物中のエポキシ当量に対して0~55重量%当量であることが好ましい。上記範囲であることで、反応が効果的に進行し、架橋密度を向上させ、強度を増すことができ、さらに製膜性が向上する傾向にある。

これらの観点から、熱可塑性樹脂としては、ナイロンなどのポリアミド樹脂やセルロース樹脂などが好ましく、特にナイロンなどのポリアミド樹脂が好ましい
粒子状の熱可塑性樹脂の平均粒子径は、樹脂硬化物の断面を観察し、任意の20個の粒子の最長径の平均値により定める。
本発明の樹脂硬化物は、無機凝集フィラーを含む樹脂組成物を用いた樹脂硬化物であって、該樹脂硬化物の85℃、85%RHでの重量増加率が0.80%以下であり、無機フィラーを除く該樹脂組成物の硬化後の200℃における貯蔵弾性率が1.0×107Pa以上のものである。
また、無機フィラーを除く樹脂組成物とは、樹脂組成物中の無機フィラー以外の成分を指す。樹脂、硬化剤、硬化触媒、窒素原子を含有する複素環構造を有する化合物、無機フィラー、無機凝集フィラー、その他成分については前述の樹脂組成物と同義であり、好ましい範囲なども同義である。
本発明の樹脂硬化物を得る方法は特に限定されない。例えば、上述した樹脂組成物を硬化させて得る方法が挙げられる。
無機フィラーを除く該樹脂組成物の硬化後の200℃における貯蔵弾性率が1.0×107Pa以上である。吸湿リフロー試験後の性能保持の観点から、貯蔵弾性率は1.3×107Pa以上であることが好ましく、1.5×107Pa以上であることがより好ましく、1.7×107Pa以上であることがさらに好ましい。一方、貯蔵弾性率は5×109Pa以下であることが好ましく、1×109Pa以下であることがより好ましく、5×108Pa以下であることがより好ましい。
貯蔵弾性率が上記上限値以下であることで、吸湿リフロー試験を経ることで発生する内部応力が過剰となることを抑制でき、得られる樹脂硬化物の割れや、金属と樹脂硬化物との界面剥離を抑制できる傾向にある。
貯蔵弾性率が上記範囲であることで、後述する被着体である金属の凹凸に樹脂硬化物が入り易くなり、凹凸に入り込んだ樹脂硬化物が強固なアンカー効果を発現し、金属と樹脂硬化物との密着性が向上する傾向にある。
本発明の樹脂硬化物(無機フィラーを含む)は、85℃、85%RHでの重量増加率が0.8%以下である。この重量増加率が0.8%を超えるものは、吸湿リフロー試験後に高い絶縁性維持、界面剥離の防止という、本発明の課題を解決し得ない。
吸湿リフロー試験後に高い絶縁性維持、界面剥離の防止の観点から、この重量増加率は小さい程好ましく、0.75%以下が好ましく、0.7%以下がより好ましい。
重量増加率の下限は特に限定されないが、樹脂硬化物の強度と絶縁性能との両立や製膜性の観点から、例えば0.2%以上である。
樹脂硬化物の重量増加の要因は様々考えられるが、吸湿による重量増加をコントロールすることが重要である。本発明は上記特定の範囲であることで、本発明の課題を解決できることを見出したものである。
本発明の樹脂組成物及び本発明の樹脂硬化物を製造する方法を、本発明の樹脂組成物よりなるシート状の樹脂硬化物の製造方法を例示して説明する。
樹脂を有機溶剤(例えば、メチルエチルケトン)に混合、溶解させて樹脂液を作成し、得られた樹脂液に、無機凝集フィラー、その他の成分を十分混合したものを加えて混合し、その後、粘度調整用として更に有機溶剤を加えて混合した後に、更に、硬化剤や硬化促進剤、或いは、分散剤等の添加剤を加えて混合する。
例えば、樹脂組成物が可塑性や流動性を有する場合、該樹脂組成物を所望の形状で、例えば型へ収容した状態で硬化させることによって成形することができる。この場合、射出成形、射出圧縮成形、押出成形、圧縮成形、真空圧縮成形を利用することができる。
まず基材の表面に、スラリー状の樹脂組成物を塗布して塗膜(シート状の樹脂組成物)を形成する。
スラリー状の樹脂組成物を塗布することにより形成された塗膜を、溶剤や低分子成分の除去のために、通常10~150℃、好ましくは25~120℃、より好ましくは30~110℃の温度で乾燥する。
乾燥温度が上記上限値以下であることで、スラリー状の樹脂組成物中の樹脂の硬化が抑制され、その後の加圧工程でシート状の樹脂組成物中の樹脂が流動ししボイドを除去しやすくなる傾向にある。乾燥温度が上記下限値以上であることで、効果的に溶剤を取り除くことができ生産性が向上する傾向にある。
乾燥時間が上記下限値以上であることで、十分に溶剤が除去でき、残留溶剤が樹脂硬化物内のボイドとなることを抑制できる傾向にある。乾燥時間が上記上限値以下であることで、生産性が向上し、製造コストを抑制できる傾向にある。
乾燥工程の後には、凝集無機フィラー同士を接合させ熱伝導パスを形成する目的、シート内のボイドや空隙をなくす目的、基材との密着性を向上させる目的等から、得られたシート状の樹脂組成物に加圧工程を行うことが望ましい。
加圧時の加重を上記上限値以下とすることにより、凝集無機フィラーの二次粒子が破壊することなく、シート状の樹脂硬化物中に空隙などがない高い熱伝導性を有するシートを得ることができる。加重を上記下限値以上とすることにより、凝集無機フィラー間の接触が良好となり、熱伝導パスを形成しやすくなるため、高い熱伝導性を有する樹脂硬化物を得ることができる。
この温度範囲で加圧工程を行うことにより、シート状の樹脂組成物中の樹脂の溶融粘度を低下させることができ、樹脂硬化物内のボイドや空隙をより低減することができる。また、上記上限値以下で加熱することで、シート状の樹脂組成物及び樹脂硬化物中の有機成分の分解、残留溶剤により発生するボイドを抑制できる傾向にある。
加圧時間が上記上限値以下であることで、樹脂硬化物の製造時間が抑制でき、生産コストを短縮できる傾向にある。加圧時間が上記下限値以上であることで、樹脂硬化物内の空隙やボイドを十分に取り除くことができ、熱伝達性能や耐電圧特性を向上できる傾向にある。
本発明の樹脂組成物を完全に硬化反応させる硬化工程は、加圧下で行ってもよく、無加圧で行ってもよい。また、加圧工程と硬化工程を同時に行ってもよい。
加圧工程と硬化工程を同時に行う場合の加重を上記上限値以下とすることにより、凝集無機フィラーの二次粒子が破壊することなく、シート状の樹脂硬化物中に空隙などがない高い熱伝導性を有するシート状硬化物を得ることができる。また、加重を上記下限値以上とすることにより、凝集無機フィラー間の接触が良好となり、熱伝導パスを形成しやすくなるため、高い熱伝導性を有する樹脂硬化物を得ることができる。
加圧時間が上記上限値以下であることで、シート状の樹脂硬化物の製造時間が抑制でき、生産コストを短縮できる傾向にある。加圧時間が上記下限値以上であることで、シート状の樹脂硬化物内の空隙やボイドを十分に取り除くことができ、熱伝達性能や耐電圧特性を向上できる傾向にある。
加熱温度を上記下限値以上とすることにより、シート状の樹脂組成物中の樹脂の溶融粘度を低下させることができ、樹脂硬化物内のボイドや空隙をなくすことができる。加熱温度を上記上限値以下とすることで、シート状の樹脂組成物及びシート状の樹脂硬化物中の有機成分の分解、残留溶剤により発生するボイドを抑制できる傾向にある。
加熱温度をこの温度範囲とすることにより、樹脂の硬化反応を効果的に進行させる。加熱温度が上記上限値以下であることで樹脂の熱劣化を防止する。加熱温度が上記下限値以上であることで、樹脂の硬化反応をより効果的に進行させる。
樹脂硬化物の厚さが上記下限値以上であることで、耐電圧特性が得られ、絶縁破壊電圧が向上する傾向にある。樹脂硬化物の厚さが上記上限値以下であることで、デバイスの小型化や薄型化が達成でき、得られる樹脂硬化物(放熱シート)の熱抵抗を抑制できる傾向にある。
本発明の複合成形体は、本発明の樹脂組成物の硬化物からなる硬化物部と金属部とを有し、通常これらが積層一体化されてなるものである。
金属板の表面は物理的に粗化処理がなされていてもよいし、化学的に表面処理剤等で処理されていてもよい。樹脂組成物と金属板の密着の観点から、これらの処理がなされていることがより好ましい
本発明の複合成形体は半導体デバイスとして用いることができる。特に、高温で作動させることにより高出力かつ高密度化が可能なパワー半導体デバイスにおいて好適に用いることができる。
