Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は溶融粘度が低くフィラーの高充填化が可能であり、しかも耐熱性に優れた硬化物を与えるエポキシ樹脂混合物、エポキシ樹脂組成物に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
エポキシ樹脂は種々の硬化剤で硬化させることにより、一般的に機械的性質、耐水性、耐薬品性、耐熱性、電気的性質などに優れた硬化物となり、接着剤、塗料、積層板、成形材料、注型材料などの幅広い分野に利用されている。従来、工業的に最も使用されているエポキシ樹脂としてビスフェノ−ルAにエピクロルヒドリンを反応させて得られる液状および固形のビスフェノ−ルA型エポキシ樹脂がある。その他液状のビスフェノ−ルA型エポキシ樹脂にテトラブロムビスフェノ−ルAを反応させて得られる難燃性臭素含有エポキシ樹脂などが汎用エポキシ樹脂として工業的に使用されている。また、特に半導体の封止用途としては、オルソクレゾールノボラックにエピクロルヒドリンを反応させて得られる多官能エポキシ樹脂などが主に利用されている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、前記したようなオルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂は分子量が大きくなるにつれて、それを使用して得られる硬化物の耐熱性は向上するものの、溶融粘度が高くなるという欠点がある。また分子量の小さなオルソクレゾール型エポキシ樹脂、或は結晶性のテトラメチルビフェノール型エポキシ樹脂などは、溶融粘度は低くなるものの、その硬化物の耐熱性は低下するという欠点がある。近年、半導体封止材の高性能化を図るためフィラーの高充填化が可能なほど低粘度で、しかも、その硬化物の耐熱性の高いエポキシ樹脂の開発が求められている。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らはこうした実状に鑑み、低粘度でしかも耐熱性に優れる硬化物を与えるエポキシ樹脂を求めて鋭意研究した結果、下記の特定の構造の化合物をグリシジルエーテル化して得られるエポキシ樹脂混合物が、極めて溶融粘度が低く、しかもその硬化物に対して優れた耐熱性を付与するものであることを見い出して本発明を完成させるに到った。

[Industrial applications]
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an epoxy resin mixture and an epoxy resin composition which have a low melt viscosity and can be filled with a filler, and provide a cured product having excellent heat resistance.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Epoxy resins can be cured with various curing agents to give cured products with excellent mechanical properties, water resistance, chemical resistance, heat resistance, and electrical properties. It is used in a wide range of fields such as materials and casting materials. Conventionally, there is a liquid and solid bisphenol A type epoxy resin obtained by reacting bisphenol A with epichlorohydrin as the epoxy resin most used industrially. Other flame-retardant bromine-containing epoxy resins obtained by reacting tetrabromobisphenol A with a liquid bisphenol A-type epoxy resin are industrially used as general-purpose epoxy resins. In particular, as a semiconductor encapsulation application, a polyfunctional epoxy resin obtained by reacting ortho-cresol novolak with epichlorohydrin is mainly used.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, as described above, as the molecular weight of the ortho-cresol novolac epoxy resin increases, the heat resistance of a cured product obtained by using the resin increases, but the melt viscosity increases. Orthocresol type epoxy resin having a small molecular weight or crystalline tetramethylbiphenol type epoxy resin has a disadvantage that although the melt viscosity is low, the heat resistance of the cured product is low. In recent years, in order to improve the performance of semiconductor encapsulants, there has been a demand for the development of an epoxy resin having a viscosity low enough to allow a high filling of a filler and a cured product having high heat resistance.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In view of such circumstances, the present inventors have conducted intensive studies for an epoxy resin that provides a cured product having a low viscosity and excellent heat resistance.As a result, an epoxy resin mixture obtained by glycidyl etherifying a compound having the following specific structure is obtained. The present invention has been found to have an extremely low melt viscosity and to impart excellent heat resistance to the cured product, thereby completing the present invention.
[0005]
That is, the present invention provides the following equation (1).
