Patent number: 5714086Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there are provided novel propargyl ether-based compositions that are very effective when used in underfill applications. Aromatic propargyl ether compounds are believed to represent the most robust resin chemistry currently available to meet the many performance requirements associated with underfill applications. Propargyl ether resins are hydrophobic, hydrolytically stable, low toxicity monomers that can be cured to high T.sub.g, thermally stable thermosets. Liquid propargyl ether monomers have been found and/or described in the literature which can be used alone or in combination to yield diluent free underfill compositions. Alternatively, mixtures of two or more propargyl ether monomers (wherein one or more of these monomers may be solids at room temperature) can be used to create diluent-free, room temperature stable, eutectic or peritectic liquid resin compositions.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 1996Date of Patent: February 3, 1998Assignee: Quantum Materials, Inc.Inventors: Jose A.

Patent number: 5447988Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a novel composition for attaching a semiconductor device to a substrate. The invention composition comprises liquid polycyanate ester monomer, electrically conductive filler, and a curing catalyst, in the substantial absence of alkylphenol.
