Description

Cleaning of flux residue
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to a cleaning agent composition for cleaning flux residue, a cleaning method using the cleaning agent composition, and a method for manufacturing an electronic component.
Background
In recent years, in mounting electronic components on printed wiring boards and ceramic substrates, the components have been miniaturized from the viewpoints of low power consumption and high-speed processing, and the gap to be cleaned at the time of cleaning of solder flux has been narrowed. In addition, lead-free solders have been used in terms of environmental safety, and rosin-based fluxes have been used in association with this.
International publication No. 2012/005068 (patent document 1) discloses a stock solution for a cleaning agent composition for use in a state of cloudiness in which a specific amount of water is added to a cleaning object, the stock solution for a cleaning agent composition comprising 1 st and 2 nd organic solvents as organic solvents, the 1 st organic solvent being a predetermined hydrophobic glycol ether compound or the like, the 2 nd organic solvent being a predetermined hydrophilic amine compound, the amount of the 2 nd organic solvent being a value in the range of 0.3 to 30 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the 1 st organic solvent, and the amount of the organic solvent having a boiling point exceeding 190 ℃ being a value in the predetermined range.
International publication No. 2005/021700 (patent document 2) discloses a cleaning agent for removing solder flux, which is characterized in that: when the content of the diol compound is less than 1 wt%, the content of the benzyl alcohol is in the range of 70 to 99.9 wt% and the content of the amino alcohol is in the range of 0.1 to 30 wt%, and when the content of the diol compound is 1 to 40 wt%, the content of the benzyl alcohol is in the range of 15 to 99 wt% and the content of the amino alcohol is in the range of 0.1 to 30 wt%.
Japanese patent application laid-open No. 7-179893 (patent document 3) discloses the following cleaning composition: comprises 0-30wt% of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and at least one compound selected from phosphines, phenols, imidazolidinones, imidazoles or fluorenes.
Disclosure of Invention
In one embodiment, the present disclosure relates to a cleaning method including a step of cleaning an object to be cleaned having flux residue with a cleaning agent composition containing an organic solvent (component a) and a compound (component B) having an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms on a nitrogen atom of an imidazole ring or piperazine ring.
The present disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing an electronic component, including: at least one step selected from the group consisting of a step of mounting at least one member selected from the group consisting of a semiconductor chip, a chip-type capacitor, and a circuit board on the circuit board by soldering using a flux, and a step of forming a solder bump for connecting the member on the circuit board; and a step of cleaning at least one selected from the group consisting of a circuit board on which the component is mounted and a circuit board on which the solder bump is formed by the cleaning method of the present disclosure.
The present disclosure relates to a composition for use as a cleaning agent for cleaning an object to be cleaned having flux residue, the composition containing an organic solvent (component a) and a compound (component B) having an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms on a nitrogen atom of an imidazole ring or piperazine ring.
Detailed Description
In recent years, due to miniaturization of semiconductor package substrates, solder bumps have been miniaturized, and gaps between the solder bumps and members to be connected have been narrowed. Further, since solder bumps are miniaturized and gaps between the solder bumps and members to be connected are narrowed, the cleaning agent composition disclosed in the above patent document is insufficient in the removal property of the flux residue (flux removal property), and is said to be insufficient in the cleaning property.
Accordingly, the present disclosure provides a cleaning agent composition having excellent flux removability, a cleaning method using the same, and a method of manufacturing an electronic component.
According to the present disclosure, in one embodiment, a cleaning agent composition and a cleaning method excellent in flux removal property can be provided.
The present disclosure is based on the following recognition: when a cleaning agent composition containing a specific solvent and a specific amine is used for removing flux residue, the removal performance of the flux residue is improved as compared with the conventional one.
That is, the present disclosure relates to a cleaning method (hereinafter, also referred to as "the cleaning method of the present disclosure") including a step of cleaning an object to be cleaned having flux residue with a cleaning agent composition containing an organic solvent (component a) and a compound having an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms on a nitrogen atom of an imidazole ring or piperazine ring (component B). According to the present disclosure, in one or more embodiments, the flux residue of the object to be cleaned can be efficiently removed.
In another aspect, the present disclosure relates to a composition (hereinafter, also referred to as "the cleaning agent composition of the present disclosure") for use as a cleaning agent in cleaning an object to be cleaned having flux residue, the composition containing an organic solvent (component a) and a compound (component B) having an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms at the nitrogen atom of an imidazole ring or piperazine ring. According to the present disclosure, in one or more embodiments, a cleaning agent composition excellent in flux removability can be obtained. Further, according to the present disclosure, in one or more embodiments, a cleaning agent composition capable of suppressing the influence of corrosion or the like of a weld metal can be obtained.
The details of the mechanism of action of the effects of the cleaning method of the present disclosure and the cleaning agent composition of the present disclosure remain unclear, but are presumed as follows.
That is, in the cleaning method of the present disclosure and the cleaning agent composition of the present disclosure, the component a penetrates the flux and the flux residue deteriorated by reflow or the like to reduce the viscosity so as to be easily flowable, and the component B acts to form a salt with the flux to decompose or hydrophilize the flux and the flux residue so as to be easily dissolved in the cleaning agent composition.
In addition, it is presumed that the component B increases the solubility in water in the rinsing step after the cleaning of the flux and the flux residue, improves the removability by the rinsing, and reduces the remaining after the cleaning and rinsing.
Further, it is presumed that the component B acts on the solder metal in the solvent containing the component a, and the cleaning property is improved as described above without corroding the solder metal, so that the cleaning agent composition for removing the flux residue, which can suppress the influence of corrosion or the like of the solder metal, is obtained.
However, the present disclosure may also be construed without being limited to this mechanism.
In the present disclosure, "soldering" refers to rosin-based soldering fluxes containing rosin or rosin derivatives for soldering, water-soluble soldering fluxes containing no rosin, and the like for removing oxides that interfere with the connection of metals such as electrodes and wirings to solder metals to promote the connection, and in the present disclosure, "soldering" includes soldering by reflow soldering and flow soldering. In the present disclosure, "solder flux" refers to a mixture of solder and flux. In the present disclosure, "flux residue" refers to a residue derived from flux that remains on a substrate after a solder bump is formed using flux and/or a substrate after soldering using flux. For example, when other components (for example, a semiconductor chip, a chip capacitor, and other circuit boards) are stacked and mounted on a circuit board, a space (gap) is formed between the circuit board and the other components. The flux used for the mounting may remain in the gap as a flux residue after soldering by reflow soldering or the like.
