  • Patent number: 8715833
    Abstract: A high adhesive strength and good conduction reliability can be realized when anisotropic connection is performed under compression conditions of a compression temperature of 130° C. and a compression time of 3 seconds using an anisotropic conductive film which uses a polymerizable acrylic compound capable of being cured at a comparatively lower temperature and in a comparatively shorter time than a thermosetting epoxy resin along with a film-forming resin. Consequently, an anisotropic conductive film has a structure in which an insulating adhesive layer and an anisotropic conductive adhesive layer are laminated. The insulating adhesive layer and the anisotropic conductive adhesive layer each contain a polymerizable acrylic compound, a film-forming resin, and a polymerization initiator. The polymerization initiator contains two kinds of organic peroxide having different one minute half-life temperatures.

  • Patent number: 8319222
    Abstract: A connection structure comprising an adhesive composition is provided. The adhesive composition is capable of providing good adhesion strength to the polyimide surface of a flexible circuit board that is exposed on the metal wiring surface and between the traces even when the polyimide surface is relatively smooth. The adhesive composition contains a thermoplastic resin, a polyfunctional acrylate, and a radical polymerization initiator and further contains a monofunctional urethane acrylate having a urethane residue at its terminal end. The monofunctional urethane acrylate is represented by the formula (1): CH2?CR0—COO—R1—NHCOO—R2??(1) wherein R0 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R1 is a divalent hydrocarbon group, and R2 is an optionally substituted lower alkyl group.

  • Publication number: 20120292082
    Abstract: In an anisotropic conductive film formed by laminating an insulating adhesive layer containing a polymerizable acrylic compound, a film-forming resin, and a polymerization initiator and a conductive particle-containing layer containing a polymerizable acrylic compound, a film-forming resin, a polymerization initiator, and conductive particles, the insulating adhesive layer and the conductive particle-containing layer each contain a thiol compound in order not to decrease the adhesion strength to an adherend and to improve connection reliability. Examples of the thiol compound may include pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate), tris-[(3-mercaptopropionyloxy)-ethyl]-isocyanurate, trimethylolpropane tris(3-mercaptopropionate), and dipentaerythritol hexakis(3-mercaptopropionate).

  • Patent number: 8067514
    Abstract: An anisotropic conductive film is provided which can provide high bonding strength and good conduction reliability when anisotropic conductive bonding is made under the compression bonding conditions of a compression bonding temperature of at most 130° C. for a compression bonding time of at most 3 seconds. The anisotropic conductive film contains a polymerizable acrylic compound, a film-forming rein, conductive particles, and a polymerization initiator. The polymerization initiator contains two types of organic peroxides that do not produce oxygen gas resulting from the decomposition thereof and have different one-minute half-life temperatures. Of the two types of organic peroxides, one organic peroxide that has a higher one-minute half-life temperature produces benzoic acid or a derivative thereof when it decomposes.
