Considering the temperature dependence of the adhesive property and the contamination of the surface of the semiconductor wafer, the crystalline polymer is 3,50.
Those having a molecular weight of about 0 to 900,000 are preferable. The molecular weight of these crystalline macromolecules particularly affects the temperature dependence of the adhesive property, and the molecular weight causes a temperature range (adhesive strength sufficient to protect the surface of the wafer when adhered to the surface of the wafer). Hereinafter, this temperature range tends to be different in the temperature range of A to B ° C or the temperature range of E to F ° C. For example, as the molecular weight of the crystalline polymer increases, the upper limit B or F of the temperature range tends to increase. Particularly, in the case of the second and fourth inventions, when the molecular weight becomes too large, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer Even if the adhesive film is heated to a temperature exceeding the temperature that causes a chemical interaction between the wafer surface and the wafer surface (corrosion, contamination, etc. of the wafer surface), the decomposition temperature of the adhesive layer, the softening temperature of the base film, etc. It may not be possible to peel it off.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive film for backside grinding of a semiconductor wafer according to the present invention has a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer containing a crystalline polymer formed therein, and protects the semiconductor wafer with a strong adhesive force when grinding the backside of the semiconductor wafer. However, when peeling, the adhesive force is easily reduced by a simple operation such as cooling or heating. Therefore, during the grinding operation, cooling water does not enter between the semiconductor wafer and the adhesive film, and the semiconductor wafer is not damaged. Further, since the peeling stress is small, the semiconductor wafer does not break when peeling. Further, contaminants from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer hardly adhere to the semiconductor wafer surface after peeling. Therefore, the present invention exerts excellent effects in the technical field of increasing the diameter and thickness of a semiconductor wafer and improving the performance of an IC.
