Abstract: A composition suitable for use as an underfill for an interconnection between a semiconductor device and a substrate, as a semiconductor device encapsulant, a dam, an adhesive for direct chip attachment, and as an electrical connection for semiconductor device and a substrate. The composition contains about 40 to 90 wt. % of an electrically conductive or non-conductive filler and a cyanate ester and epoxy resin component. The cyanate ester/epoxy resin component comprises about 10 to 70 wt. % cyanate ester material, about 30 to 90 wt. % of epoxy resin, about 0.1 to 1.5 wt. % metal chelate/amine solid curing catalyst and about 0.1 to 5 wt. % of a coupling agent.

Abstract: High flux semipermeable membranes which comprises the polymerized reaction product within and/or on a porous support backing material may be prepared by contacting the porous support such as a polysulfone with an aqueous solution of a polyamine which may, if so desired, contain a polar aprotic solvent not reactive with the amines, a polyhydric compound and an acid acceptor. The surface of the coated support is freed of excess solution and thereafter contacted with an organic solution of a polyacyl halide for a period of time sufficient to form a polymerized reaction product within and/or on the support material. The resulting composite is then treated with a hydroxy polycarboxylic acid, polyaminoalkylene polycarboxylic acid, suffonic acid, amine salts of acids, amino acid, amino acid salt, polymeric acid and inorganic acid, before drying of the membrane. This will enable the membrane to be stored in a dry manner prior to use thereof in a separation process.

Abstract: High flux semipermeable membranes which comprise a polymerized reaction product within and/or on a porous support may be prepared by contacting the porous support such as a polysulfone sheet with an aqueous solution of an polyamine, said aqueous solution containing a polar aprotic solvent not reactive with amines and optionally an acid acceptor. The surface of the coated support is dried to the touch and then contacted with an organic solution of an polycarboxylic acid halide for a period of time sufficient to form a polymerized reaction product within and/or on the surface of the support material. The resulting composite may be post treated by washing with an alkaline compound. The resultant membrane composite may be used in separation processes such as the desalination of brackish or seawater, or the softening of domestic hard water.

The polymeric reaction product is prepared by the vinyl addition polymerization of a vinyl monomer component of which at least 50 percent by weight is an active hydrogen-containing vinyl monomer in the presence of a polymeric diluent. The rate of polymerization is controlled such that the amount of unreacted vinyl monomer, on the average, does not exceed 10 percent by weight of the total weight of the reaction mixture.
