Liquid compression molding encapsulants

1. A liquid compression molding thermosetting resin encapsulant composition, comprising:

a thermosetting resin component comprising an epoxy resin component, wherein the epoxy resin component comprises at least two different epoxies chosen from epoxies made from bisphenol A, bisphenol F, bisphenol S, bisphenol E, biphenyl, and combinations thereof,

a polyether block copolymer present in an amount of about 0.5% to about 5% by weight, sufficient to reduce warpage in x and y directions when the encapsulant is compression molded and oven cured,

a thermal expansion reducing additive comprising about 70% to about 90% by weight silica filler and

a cure component present in an amount from about 0.05% to about 1% by weight, the cure component comprising the combination of an anhydride or a phenolic resin and an imidazole,

wherein all % by weight are based on the total liquid compression molding thermosetting resin encapsulant composition,

wherein, when compression molded and oven cured at a first temperature, the encapsulant composition has the following combination of warpage-reducing physical properties:

a Tq1 of about −70° C. to about −30° C. as measured by DSC, and

a Tg2 of a second temperature that is equal to or greater than the first temperature and that is about 100° C. to about 150° C. as measured by DSC”.

2. A method of improving warpage resistance of a mold wafer encapsulated by a composition according to claim 1 , the method comprising:

providing a reconfigured wafer;

providing a liquid compression molding thermosetting resin encapsulant composition according to claim 1 in contact with the wafer; and

exposing the wafer and the liquid compression molding thermosetting resin encapsulant composition to conditions favorable to allow the thermosetting resin composition to flow about the wafer and cure to a reaction product of the thermosetting resin composition.

3. A product formed from the method of claim 2 .

4. The composition of claim 1 wherein the thermosetting resin component further comprises an episulfide resin component, an oxazine component, an oxazoline component, a cyanate ester component, and/or a maleimide-, a nadimide- or an itaconimide-containing component.

5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the polyether block copolymer is amphiphilic.

6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition exhibits a DSC onset temperature and a DSC peak after reflow, wherein the DSC peak is below 140° C. and a difference between the DSC onset temperature and the DSC peak is less than 20° C.
