  • Patent number: 6645632
    Abstract: A film-type adhesive for electronic components comprises a polyimide resin made up of specific repeating units and having a weight-average molecular weight of 5,000-150,000 in combination with an epoxy resin bearing at least two glycidyl groups per molecule. The adhesive has a weight ratio of the polyimide resin to the epoxy resin within a range of 50/50 to 5/95, and a film thickness of 20-150 &mgr;m. Such a film-type adhesive makes it possible to simplify and shorten the duration of assembly operations for electronic components having various types of adherend surfaces.

  • Patent number: 6627328
    Abstract: An epoxy resin composition comprising (A) an epoxy resin, (B) a curing accelerator, and (C) an inorganic filler is light transmissive when it satisfies formulae (1) and (2): [{2(nA2+nC2)−(nA+nC)2}/2]½<3.0×10−3  (1) [{2(fA2+fC2)−(fA+fC)2}/2]½<1.0×10−5  (2) wherein nA is the refractive index at T1° C. of the cured unfilled composition, nC is the refractive index at T1° C. of the inorganic filler, fA is a temperature coefficient of the refractive index of the cured unfilled composition, and fC is a temperature coefficient of the refractive index of the inorganic filler. The cured composition has improved heat resistance, humidity resistance and low stress as well as high transparency over a wide temperature range. The composition is suited for the sealing of optical semiconductor devices.

  • Patent number: 6512031
    Abstract: An epoxy resin composition comprising an epoxy resin, a first curing agent for polymerizing the epoxy resin into a linear polymer, and a second curing agent for crosslinking the linear polymer into a three-dimensional polymer. The use of two curing agents corresponding to straight chain growth reaction and crosslinking reaction of the epoxy resin optimizes the reaction conditions to B-stage, giving a semi-cured film having a minimized variation. A laminate includes a layer of the epoxy resin composition and a protective layer. By sealing a semiconductor chip with the film, there is obtained a semiconductor package having improved heat resistance, improved moisture resistance, low stress property.

  • Publication number: 20020192477
    Abstract: A resin composition is provided comprising a silicone-modified epoxy or phenolic resin obtained by reacting an epoxy or phenolic resin having specific structural units with an organopolysiloxane. The modified epoxy or phenolic resin is such that after the modified epoxy or phenolic resin is cured alone or together with another epoxy resin and/or phenolic resin to form a cured product, the organopolysiloxane component does not form a phase separation structure in the cured product. The composition cures into a product having both the adherence, heat resistance and humidity resistance characteristic of epoxy or phenolic resins and the flexibility and impact resistance characteristic of silicone resins.

  • Patent number: 6383659
    Abstract: An epoxy resin composition comprising an epoxy resin containing 0-10% by weight of a 2-nucleus compound and 50-100% by weight of 3 to 5-nucleus compounds combined and having a dispersity (Mw/Mn) of up to 1.7, an inorganic filler, a curing catalyst, a thermoplastic resin, and an optional phenolic resin and having a Tg of lower than 15° C. in an uncured state is effective in forming a flexible film which is easy to work at room temperature. Owing to the thermoplastic resin added, the composition avoids the problem that when a semiconductor chip is sealed with an uncured film of the composition, the film will lose its original shape or entrapped voids will be formed near the chip.
