Polyimide film, method of manufacture, and metal interconnect board with polyimide film substrate
View Patent ↗The invention provides a polyimide film manufactured from a polyamic acid prepared from pyromellitic dianhydride in combination with 10 to 60 mol % of phenylenediamine and 40 to 90 mol % of 3,4′-oxydianiline, based on the overall diamine. The polyimide film, when used as a metal interconnect board substrate in flexible circuits, chip scale packages (CSP), ball grid arrays (BGA) or tape-automated bonding (TAB) tape by providing metal interconnects on the surface thereof, achieves a good balance between a high elastic modulus, a low thermal expansion coefficient, alkali etchability and film formability.
1. A polyimide film manufactured from a polyamic acid prepared from pyromellitic dianhydride in combination with 10 to 60 mol % of phenylenediamine and 40 to 90 mol % of 3,4′-oxydianiline, based on the overall diamine.
2. A polyimide film manufactured from a block component or interpenetrating polymer network component-containing polyamic acid prepared from pyromellitic dianhydride in combination with 10 to 60 mol % of phenylenediamine and 40 to 90 mol % of 3,4′-oxydianiline, based on the overall diamine.
3. The polyimide film of claim 1 or 2 made using 10 to 30 mol % of phenylenediamine and 70 to 90 mol % of 3,4′-oxydianiline.
4. The polyimide film of claim 1 , 2 , or 3 , wherein the phenylenediamine is p-phenylenediamine.
5. A method of manufacturing a polyimide film, the method comprising the steps of, in order:
(A) reacting starting materials comprising (a1) a tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride comprising pyromellitic dianhydride and (b1) a first diamine selected from phenylenediamine and 3,4′-oxydianiline in an inert solvent to form a first polyamic acid solution containing a component selected from a block component of the first diamine and pyromellitic dianhydride and an interpenetrating polymer network component of the first diamine and pyromellitic dianhydride;
(B) adding to the first polyamic acid solution prepared in step A additional materials comprising (b1) a tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride comprising pyromellitic dianhydride and (b2) a second diamine selected from phenylene diamine and 3,4′-oxydianiline, and continuing the reaction with all the materials to form a second polyamic acid solution;
(C) mixing into the second polyamic acid solution obtained in step B a chemical agent capable of converting the polyamic acid into polyimide, to form a mixture;
(D) casting or extruding the mixture from step C onto a smooth surface to form a polyamic acid-polyimide gel film;
(E) heating the gel film at 200 to 500° C. to transform the polyamic acid to polyimide
wherein at least one of said first diamine and said second diamine is a phenylene diamine, and at least one of said first diamine and said second diamine is 3,4′-oxydianiline.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the total polyamic acid is prepared from pyromellitic dianhydride in combination with 10 to 60 mol % of phenylenediamine and 40 to 90 mol % of 3,4′-oxydianiline, based on the overall diamine.
7. A metal interconnect board substrate for use in flexible printed circuits or tape-automated bonding tape, which board is produced by using the polyimide film of claim 1 as the substrate and providing metal interconnects on the surface thereof.
8. A polymide film in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the polyamic acid further comprises tetracarboxylic dianhydride, the tetracarboxylic dianhydride being: (i) pyromellitic dianhydride and, (ii) biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride or benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride in an amount less than 50 mol % of the tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride.
