  • Publication number: 20130244000
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a chip on film package, comprising a polyimide copper clad laminate and the process of making the same. The laminate comprises a layer of polyimide and a layer of copper foil, wherein the polyimide layer is made from a polyimide precursor comprising a diamine monomer, a dianhydride monomer, an organic solvent and a silane coupling agent having one or more organic functional groups, and the copper foil is a smooth copper foil. The polyimide layer of the present invention provides high transparency, good dimensional stability, good mechanical properties and good adhesion to the copper foil.

  • Patent number: 7618766
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to phosphorus containing (or “halogen free”) flame retardant photoimagable compositions useful as a coverlay material in a flexible electronic circuitry package. These compositions are generally photosensitive and comprise phosphorus containing acrylates and phosphorus-containing photo-initiators mixed with a polymer binder. The compositions of the present invention typically comprise elemental phosphorus in an amount between, and including, any two of the following numbers 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, 3.0, 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8, 4.0, 4.2, 4.4, 4.6, 4.8, 5.0, 5.2, 5.4, 5.6, 5.8 and 6.0 weight percent.

  • Patent number: 7527915
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to phosphorus containing (or “halogen free”) multi-layer flame retardant photoimagable compositions useful as a coverlay material in a flexible electronic circuitry package. These compositions generally contain a top layer and bottom layer adjacent to one another both being photosensitive and comprising phosphorus containing acrylates and phosphorus-containing photo-initiators mixed with a polymer binder. These compositions typically have phosphorus in the top layer in an amount between, and including, any two of the following numbers 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, 3.0, 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8, 4.0, 4.2, 4.4, 4.6, 4.8, 5.0, 5.2, 5.4, 5.6, 5.8, 6.0, 6.2, 6.4, 6.6, 6.8, 7.0, 7.2, 7.4, 7.6, 7.8, 8.0, 8.2, 8.4, 8.6, 8.8, 9.0, 9.2, 9.4, 9.6, 9.8, and 10.0 weight percent, and have phosphorus in the bottom layer in an amount between, and including, any two of the following numbers, 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, 3.0, 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8, and 4.
