Description

導熱組合物、導熱片、導熱組合物的製造方法和導熱片的製造方法Thermally conductive composition, thermally conductive sheet, method for producing thermally conductive composition, and method for producing thermally conductive sheet

本發明系關於導熱組合物、導熱片、導熱組合物的製造方法和導熱片的製造方法。The present invention relates to a thermally conductive composition, a thermally conductive sheet, a method for manufacturing the thermally conductive composition, and a method for manufacturing the thermally conductive sheet.

各種電子設備中的LSI(Large Scale Integration)等中,由於使用的元件的發熱而LSI本身長時間暴露於高溫,從而導致動作不良或故障的擔憂。因此,為了防止LSI等的升溫,廣泛使用導熱材料。導熱材料使元件的發熱進行擴散,或藉由傳導至放出至大氣等體系外的放熱構件以能夠降低設備的升溫。In various electronic devices such as LSI (Large Scale Integration), the heat generated by the components used causes the LSI itself to be exposed to high temperatures for a long time, which can lead to concerns about malfunction or failure. Therefore, in order to prevent the temperature of LSI, etc., thermal conductive materials are widely used. Thermal conductive materials diffuse the heat generated by the components or reduce the temperature of the equipment by conducting it to a heat dissipating component that releases it to the outside of the system such as the atmosphere.

如果作為這樣的導熱材料使用金屬或陶瓷,則存在難以輕量化,加工性差,或柔軟性變低這樣的問題。因此,提出各種將由樹脂或橡膠等形成的高分子材料作為母材的導熱組合物。If metal or ceramic is used as such a thermal conductive material, there are problems such as difficulty in weight reduction, poor processability, or low flexibility. Therefore, various thermal conductive compositions using polymer materials such as resins and rubbers as base materials have been proposed.

作為將高分子材料作為母材的導熱組合物,例如,提出了在分子内,含有高分子化合物、環氧樹脂、導熱填料和活性酯固化劑的樹脂組合物(例如,参照專利文獻1)。As a thermally conductive composition using a polymer material as a base material, for example, a resin composition containing a polymer compound, an epoxy resin, a thermally conductive filler, and an active ester curing agent in a molecule has been proposed (for example, refer to Patent Document 1).

在使用專利文獻1的樹脂組合物以製作樹脂片時,將樹脂組合物溶解於有機溶劑以調製樹脂清漆,將調製的樹脂清漆塗佈於支持體上使其乾燥,從而製造在支持體上形成有樹脂組合物層的樹脂片。 現有技術文獻 專利文獻 When the resin composition of Patent Document 1 is used to prepare a resin sheet, the resin composition is dissolved in an organic solvent to prepare a resin varnish, and the prepared resin varnish is applied to a support and dried to prepare a resin sheet having a resin composition layer formed on the support. Prior Art Document Patent Document

專利文獻1:日本專利第6787210號公報Patent document 1: Japanese Patent No. 6787210

<發明欲解決之問題><Problems to be solved>

然而,專利文獻1中,關於導熱組合物中残留的揮發成分沒有研究。在使用使專利文獻1所記載的樹脂組合物溶解於有機溶劑的樹脂清漆來製作樹脂片時,樹脂清漆的乾燥時,揮發成分沒有完全乾燥,有時樹脂組合物中残留微量的揮發成分。樹脂組合物中残留的微量的揮發成分由於使固化反應開始的加熱而膨脹,產生空隙。這樣的空隙如果存在於基材與樹脂組合物的界面,則形成導熱率低的空氣的空間,因此不僅導致樹脂組合物層的面内的熱傳遞的偏差,而且會發生導熱率的降低這樣的問題。However, Patent Document 1 does not study the volatile components remaining in the thermally conductive composition. When a resin sheet is produced using a resin varnish in which the resin composition described in Patent Document 1 is dissolved in an organic solvent, the volatile components are not completely dried when the resin varnish is dried, and a trace amount of volatile components may remain in the resin composition. The trace amount of volatile components remaining in the resin composition expands due to the heating that starts the curing reaction, generating voids. If such voids exist at the interface between the substrate and the resin composition, spaces for air with low thermal conductivity are formed, which not only causes a deviation in heat transfer within the surface of the resin composition layer, but also causes a problem of reduced thermal conductivity.

本發明的一方式的目的在於提供使其固化時,抑制基材與導熱組合物的固化物的界面所存在的空隙的發生,能夠實現高導熱率的導熱組合物。 [用於解決課題的方法] One aspect of the present invention aims to provide a thermally conductive composition that can achieve high thermal conductivity by suppressing the generation of voids at the interface between a substrate and a cured product of the thermally conductive composition when the composition is cured.

以下,詳細地說明本發明的實施方式。另外,在本說明書中表示數值範圍的「~」只要沒有特別規定,表示包含其前後所記載的數值作為下限值和上限值。In the following, the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail. In addition, in the present specification, "to" indicating a numerical range includes the numerical values described before and after as the lower limit and the upper limit unless otherwise specified.

<導熱組合物> 說明本發明實施方式涉及的導熱組合物。本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物包含熱塑性樹脂、松香系樹脂、導熱粒子和低熔點金屬粒子。 <Thermal conductive composition> Description of the thermal conductive composition involved in the embodiment of the present invention. The thermal conductive composition involved in this embodiment includes a thermoplastic resin, a rosin resin, thermal conductive particles and low melting point metal particles.

一般而言,從高溫下的接著、可靠性的觀點和提高導熱粒子的填充率的觀點考慮,導熱組合物使用將熱固性樹脂作為主體的粘合劑樹脂。在使用這些粘合劑樹脂的情況下,需要溶解於溶劑,將包含粘合劑樹脂和溶劑的塗佈液塗佈於基材以使其乾燥。然而,溶劑存在乾燥時不能完全除去而残留,易於作為氣泡残留的傾向。本發明人等着眼於在使用導熱組合物時,不使用溶劑,從而減少導熱組合物所包含的氣泡量。而且,本發明人等發現代替溶劑,使用熔點比較低的熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂,從而能夠降低傳導體組合物所包含的揮發性成分的量。Generally speaking, thermally conductive compositions use adhesive resins containing thermosetting resins as the main component from the viewpoints of adhesion at high temperatures, reliability, and increasing the filling rate of thermally conductive particles. When using these adhesive resins, they need to be dissolved in a solvent, and a coating liquid containing the adhesive resin and the solvent is applied to a substrate and dried. However, the solvent cannot be completely removed during drying and remains, and tends to remain as bubbles. The inventors of the present invention have focused on reducing the amount of bubbles contained in the thermally conductive composition by not using a solvent when using the thermally conductive composition. Furthermore, the inventors have found that the amount of volatile components contained in the conductor composition can be reduced by using a thermoplastic resin or a rosin-based resin having a relatively low melting point instead of a solvent.

松香系樹脂具有揮發成分。松香系樹脂所包含的揮發成分的含量如上述那樣,只要以使揮發成分和松香系樹脂所包含的揮發成分的含量成為5.0wt%以下的範圍得以包含即可。揮發成分的含量的測定方法的詳細情況進行後述。Rosin-based resins have volatile components. The content of the volatile components contained in the rosin-based resin is as described above, and it is sufficient that the volatile components and the content of the volatile components contained in the rosin-based resin are contained in a range of 5.0 wt % or less. The details of the method for measuring the content of the volatile components will be described later.

松香系樹脂的熔點與熱塑性樹脂同樣,優選為低熔點金屬粒子的熔點以下。即,松香系樹脂的熔點優選為低熔點金屬粒子的熔點的-10℃以下。松香系樹脂的熔點更優選為110℃~140℃。 如果松香系樹脂的熔點為110℃~140℃,則能夠抑制對於本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物的固化物的耐熱性產生影響,並且在本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物的製作時進行熔融成型。 The melting point of the rosin resin is preferably below the melting point of the low-melting-point metal particles, similar to the thermoplastic resin. That is, the melting point of the rosin resin is preferably below -10°C of the melting point of the low-melting-point metal particles. The melting point of the rosin resin is more preferably 110°C to 140°C. If the melting point of the rosin resin is 110°C to 140°C, the influence on the heat resistance of the cured product of the thermally conductive composition involved in the present embodiment can be suppressed, and melt molding can be performed during the preparation of the thermally conductive composition involved in the present embodiment.

熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂的至少一者如上所述,具有揮發成分。熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂所包含的揮發成分的合計的含量為5.0wt%以下,優選為4.5wt%以下,進一步優選為4.0wt%以下。At least one of the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin has a volatile component as described above. The total content of the volatile components contained in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin is 5.0 wt % or less, preferably 4.5 wt % or less, and more preferably 4.0 wt % or less.

熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂所包含的揮發成分的合計的含量的測定方法能夠如以下那樣進行測定。 首先,將預定量的質量(例如,1g~2g)的熱塑性樹脂或松香系樹脂的試樣迅速地採集至已知的稱量罐,使其在鋁杯的底部均勻地展開。然後,對於鋁杯加蓋,直接使用電子天平進行稱量。稱量後,除去蓋,置於稱量罐下,設置於乾燥器内,在預定溫度(例如,(135±2)℃)乾燥預定時間(例如,3小時)。乾燥後,對於稱量罐直接加蓋,放入乾燥器中,放冷直至室溫之後,稱量。由下式(1),求出乾燥的試樣的固體成分(%)。而且,由下式(2),從100減去求得的固體成分,算出熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂所包含的揮發成分的合計的含有比例。 固體成分(%)=((稱量罐+乾燥後的試樣的質量)-(稱量罐的質量))/((稱量罐+試樣的質量)-(稱量罐的質量))×100 ・・・(1) 揮發成分的合計的含有比例(%)=100-固體成分 ・・・(2) The total content of volatile components contained in thermoplastic resins and rosin-based resins can be measured as follows. First, a predetermined amount of mass (e.g., 1g to 2g) of a thermoplastic resin or rosin-based resin sample is quickly collected into a known weighing pot and evenly spread on the bottom of an aluminum cup. Then, the aluminum cup is covered and weighed directly using an electronic balance. After weighing, the cover is removed, placed under the weighing pot, set in a desiccator, and dried at a predetermined temperature (e.g., (135±2)°C) for a predetermined time (e.g., 3 hours). After drying, the weighing pot is directly covered, placed in a desiccator, cooled to room temperature, and weighed. The solid content (%) of the dried sample is calculated from the following formula (1). Then, the total content ratio of volatile components contained in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin is calculated by subtracting the obtained solid content from 100 according to the following formula (2). Solid content (%) = ((Weighing tank + mass of sample after drying) - (mass of weighing tank)) / ((Weighing tank + mass of sample) - (mass of weighing tank)) × 100 ... (1) Total content ratio of volatile components (%) = 100 - solid content ... (2)

另外,在測定僅僅熱塑性樹脂或松香系樹脂所包含的揮發成分的含量的情況下,與上述同樣地準備僅僅熱塑性樹脂或松香系樹脂的試樣進行測定而求出。When the content of volatile components contained in only a thermoplastic resin or a rosin-based resin is to be measured, a sample of only a thermoplastic resin or a rosin-based resin is prepared in the same manner as above and the content of volatile components is determined by measurement.

從在導熱組合物的固化物中,通過熔融的低熔點金屬粒子而藉由導熱粒子能夠形成網路(金屬的連續相),能夠實現高導熱率方面考慮,優選低熔點金屬粒子的熔點比導熱組合物的熱固化處理溫度低。In order to achieve high thermal conductivity by forming a network (continuous phase of metal) through the melted low-melting-point metal particles in the cured thermally conductive composition, the melting point of the low-melting-point metal particles is preferably lower than the heat curing temperature of the thermally conductive composition.

低熔點金屬粒子在導熱組合物的熱固化處理條件下與上述導熱粒子進行反應,製成顯示比低熔點金屬粒子高的熔點的合金,從而能夠防止高溫下的熔融,可靠性提高。此外,導熱組合物的固化物的耐熱性提高。The low melting point metal particles react with the above-mentioned heat conductive particles under the heat curing treatment conditions of the heat conductive composition to produce an alloy showing a higher melting point than the low melting point metal particles, thereby preventing melting at high temperatures and improving reliability. In addition, the heat resistance of the cured product of the heat conductive composition is improved.

導熱組合物的熱固化處理例如,以150℃~200℃的溫度在30分鐘~2小時以下的條件下進行。The heat curing treatment of the thermally conductive composition is performed, for example, at a temperature of 150° C. to 200° C. for 30 minutes to 2 hours.

低熔點金屬粒子的體積平均粒徑優選為10μm以下,更優選為1μm~5μm。如果低熔點金屬粒子的體積平均粒徑為10μm以下,則能夠減小低熔點金屬粒子相對於導熱粒子的體積比例,能夠實現高導熱率。另外,低熔點金屬粒子的體積平均粒徑能夠與上述導熱粒子的體積平均粒徑同樣地操作來測定。The volume average particle size of the low melting point metal particles is preferably 10 μm or less, and more preferably 1 μm to 5 μm. If the volume average particle size of the low melting point metal particles is 10 μm or less, the volume ratio of the low melting point metal particles to the thermally conductive particles can be reduced, and high thermal conductivity can be achieved. In addition, the volume average particle size of the low melting point metal particles can be measured in the same manner as the volume average particle size of the thermally conductive particles described above.

導熱粒子的體積平均粒徑比低熔點金屬粒子的體積平均粒徑大,導熱粒子與低熔點金屬粒子的體積平均粒徑比優選為2以上,更優選為3以上,進一步優選為5以上。體積平均粒徑比的上限值優選為20以下,更優選為10以下。The volume average particle size of the thermally conductive particles is larger than that of the low melting point metal particles, and the volume average particle size ratio of the thermally conductive particles to the low melting point metal particles is preferably 2 or more, more preferably 3 or more, and further preferably 5 or more. The upper limit of the volume average particle size ratio is preferably 20 or less, and more preferably 10 or less.

藉由使用與導熱粒子相比體積平均粒徑小的低熔點金屬粒子,從而導熱組合物中的導熱粒子成為主成分,導熱粒子與導熱粒子之間存在的低熔點金屬粒子由於加熱而熔融,與導熱粒子合金化以形成網路,因此能夠實現高導熱率。By using low-melting-point metal particles having a smaller average particle size than the thermally conductive particles, the thermally conductive particles in the thermally conductive composition become the main component, and the low-melting-point metal particles between the thermally conductive particles are melted by heating and alloyed with the thermally conductive particles to form a network, thereby achieving high thermal conductivity.

導熱組合物中的導熱粒子與低熔點金屬粒子的體積比優選為1以上,更優選為1.5以上,進一步優選為2以上。體積比的上限值優選為5以下,更優選為4以下,進一步優選為3以下。如果體積比為1以上,則與低熔點金屬粒子相比體積平均粒徑大的導熱粒子的體積比例增多,因此能夠抑制熔融的低熔點金屬粒子的流動。此外,低熔點金屬粒子即使對於不易潤濕的界面(例如,鋁)也難以發生分離,因此能夠抑制界面的材質的影響,界面材質的選擇性提高。The volume ratio of the thermally conductive particles to the low-melting-point metal particles in the thermally conductive composition is preferably 1 or more, more preferably 1.5 or more, and further preferably 2 or more. The upper limit of the volume ratio is preferably 5 or less, more preferably 4 or less, and further preferably 3 or less. If the volume ratio is 1 or more, the volume ratio of the thermally conductive particles having a larger volume average particle size than the low-melting-point metal particles increases, thereby suppressing the flow of the molten low-melting-point metal particles. In addition, the low-melting-point metal particles are difficult to separate even at an interface that is not easily wetted (for example, aluminum), thereby suppressing the influence of the material of the interface and improving the selectivity of the interface material.

第1混合物與導熱粒子和低熔點金屬粒子的混合方法與上述同樣,能夠使用利用攪拌葉片的攪拌等。The method of mixing the first mixture with the thermally conductive particles and the low-melting-point metal particles is the same as described above, and stirring using a stirring blade or the like can be used.

在第1混合物中混合導熱粒子和低熔點金屬粒子時,與樹脂混合工序同樣,可以在非活性氣體氣氛下一邊加熱一邊混合。非活性氣體能夠使用與上述樹脂混合工序同樣的非活性氣體。加熱溫度和加熱時間可以適當調製,可以設為與上述樹脂混合工序同樣的加熱溫度和加熱時間。When the thermally conductive particles and the low melting point metal particles are mixed in the first mixture, the mixture may be mixed while being heated in an inert gas atmosphere, similarly to the resin mixing step. The inert gas may be the same inert gas as in the resin mixing step. The heating temperature and heating time may be appropriately adjusted and may be the same as in the resin mixing step.

接下來,將第2混合物在熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂的熔點以上的溫度一邊加熱處理一邊成型為膜狀,製作具有膜狀的形狀的導熱組合物(加熱成型工序)。Next, the second mixture is molded into a film while being heat-treated at a temperature not lower than the melting point of the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin, thereby producing a thermally conductive composition having a film shape (heat molding step).

第2混合物的成型可以使用加熱至預定的加熱溫度的壓制装置來進行。加熱溫度可以設為與上述的樹脂混合工序同樣的加熱溫度。第2混合物可以在設置於壓制装置的具有預定的形狀的大小的離形膜上,一定量灌注,利用縫隙規夾持,以預定的壓力(例如,3.3MPa(0.6MPa的空氣壓)),預定時間(例如,5分鐘)加熱壓着而成型。The second mixture can be molded using a press device heated to a predetermined heating temperature. The heating temperature can be set to the same heating temperature as the resin mixing step described above. The second mixture can be molded by pouring a certain amount of it on a release film of a predetermined shape and size set in the press device, clamping it with a slit gauge, and heating and pressing it at a predetermined pressure (for example, 3.3 MPa (0.6 MPa air pressure)) for a predetermined time (for example, 5 minutes).

獲得的導熱組合物的主表面處的揮發成分的含量為5.0wt%以下。The content of volatile components on the main surface of the obtained thermally conductive composition is 5.0 wt % or less.

由此,獲得形成為片狀的本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物。Thus, the thermally conductive composition according to the present embodiment formed into a sheet shape is obtained.

這樣,本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物包含熱塑性樹脂、松香系樹脂、導熱粒子和低熔點金屬粒子,使熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂所包含的揮發成分的合計的含量為5.0wt%以下。本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物使揮發成分的合計的含量為5.0wt%以下,從而能夠抑制作為母材的熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂中所包含的間隙的量。本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物能夠抑制塗佈於基材時與基材的接触面所存在的揮發成分的量。因此,本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物在將導熱組合物加熱以使其固化時,能夠抑制由於揮發成分而產生的空隙的發生。由此,本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物在固化時,抑制基材與導熱組合物的固化物的界面所存在的空隙的發生,能夠實現高導熱率。Thus, the thermally conductive composition involved in the present embodiment includes a thermoplastic resin, a rosin-based resin, thermally conductive particles, and low-melting-point metal particles, so that the total content of volatile components contained in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin is 5.0wt% or less. The thermally conductive composition involved in the present embodiment makes the total content of volatile components less than 5.0wt%, thereby being able to suppress the amount of gaps contained in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin as the base material. The thermally conductive composition involved in the present embodiment is able to suppress the amount of volatile components present on the contact surface with the substrate when applied to the substrate. Therefore, when the thermally conductive composition involved in the present embodiment is heated to cure the thermally conductive composition, the occurrence of gaps caused by volatile components can be suppressed. Thus, when the thermally conductive composition according to the present embodiment is cured, the generation of voids at the interface between the substrate and the cured product of the thermally conductive composition is suppressed, thereby achieving high thermal conductivity.

本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物能夠使熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂的熔點為低熔點金屬粒子的熔點以下。在將本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物進行加熱處理時,熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂與低熔點金屬粒子快地熔融,因此低熔點金屬粒子能夠以維持粒子的狀態的狀態包含於熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂中。由此,本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物即使加熱處理,也能夠將低熔點金屬粒子以粒子狀的狀態分散於熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂中而包含,因此能夠更確實地具有高導熱率。The thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment can make the melting point of the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin lower than the melting point of the low-melting-point metal particles. When the thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment is subjected to heat treatment, the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin and the low-melting-point metal particles melt quickly, so that the low-melting-point metal particles can be contained in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin in a state of maintaining the particle state. Therefore, even if the thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment is subjected to heat treatment, the low-melting-point metal particles can be dispersed in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin in a particle state and contained, so that it can have a higher thermal conductivity more reliably.

If the thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment is heated at 110°C to 140°C, the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin can be surely melted, and the low-melting-point metal particles can be contained in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin. Therefore, if the thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment is heated at 110°C to 140°C, the low-melting-point metal particles can be dispersed in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin in a particle state and contained, so that it can surely have a high thermal conductivity.

The thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment contains the above components as a thermoplastic resin, so that the thermoplastic resin can become soft when heat-treated. Therefore, the thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment can contain low-melting-point metal particles in a state of being dispersed in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin resin by heat treatment, and can surely exert thermal conductivity.

The thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment contains the above-mentioned components as the rosin-based resin, so that the rosin-based resin can become soft during heat treatment.

As a result, the low-melting-point metal particles can reliably exhibit electrical conductivity, and thus the thermally conductive composition according to the present embodiment can reliably achieve thermal conductivity.

本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物能夠使導熱粒子的體積平均粒徑為1μm~100μm。由此,本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物能夠提高導熱粒子相對於低熔點金屬粒子的體積比例,因此本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物能夠進一步確實地具有高導熱率。The thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment can make the volume average particle size of the thermally conductive particles be 1 μm to 100 μm. Therefore, the thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment can increase the volume ratio of the thermally conductive particles relative to the low melting point metal particles, so the thermally conductive composition of the present embodiment can further reliably have a high thermal conductivity.

由此,獲得導熱片10。Thus, the thermal conductive sheet 10 is obtained.

另外,可以在本實施方式涉及的導熱片10的製造方法中,將本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物賦予至第1基材11和第2基材13的任一者上,使其固化,製作導熱粒子含有層12之後,在導熱粒子含有層12的第1基材11和第2基材13的一者被層疊的面的不同的面上,層疊第1基材11和第2基材13的另一者,製作導熱片10。In addition, in the method for manufacturing the thermally conductive sheet 10 involved in the present embodiment, the thermally conductive composition involved in the present embodiment is applied to either the first substrate 11 or the second substrate 13 and cured to produce the thermally conductive particle-containing layer 12, and then the other of the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 13 is stacked on a surface different from the surface on which the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 13 of the thermally conductive particle-containing layer 12 are stacked, thereby producing the thermally conductive sheet 10.

導熱片10如上所述,具有高導熱率,例如,藉由填充LSI等熱源與散熱器之間的微小的間隙,從而能夠適合用作兩者之間熱得以順利地流動那樣的熱界面材料(TIM)。因此,導熱片10中,作為TIM,例如,能夠用於根據溫度對於元件動作的效率、寿命等產生不良影響的CPU、MPU、功率電晶體、LED、鐳射二極體等各種電氣器件周邊等。由此,導熱片10能夠適合用於將實装有LED芯片或IC芯片的放熱基板與散熱器接著,構成功率LED模組或功率IC模組等時。As described above, the heat conductive sheet 10 has a high thermal conductivity, and can be used as a thermal interface material (TIM) to smoothly flow heat between a heat source such as an LSI, for example, by filling a tiny gap between the heat source and the heat sink. Therefore, the heat conductive sheet 10 can be used as a TIM, for example, around various electrical devices such as CPUs, MPUs, power transistors, LEDs, and laser diodes, which have adverse effects on the efficiency and life of the component operation due to temperature. Therefore, the heat conductive sheet 10 can be used to connect a heat dissipation substrate mounted with an LED chip or an IC chip to a heat sink to form a high-efficiency LED module or a power IC module.

散熱器為用於將電子部件的熱有效率地傳導至其它部件的構件。作為散熱器的材質,沒有特別限制,能夠根據目的適當選擇,可舉出例如,銅、鋁等。散熱器通常為平板形狀。A heat sink is a component for efficiently transferring heat from an electronic component to other components. The material of the heat sink is not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected according to the purpose. Examples thereof include copper and aluminum. A heat sink is generally in the form of a flat plate.

散熱器為用於將電子部件的熱放出至空氣中的構件。作為散熱器的材質,沒有特別限制,能夠根據目的適當選擇,可舉出例如,銅、鋁等。散熱器例如,具有複數的扇片。散熱器例如,具有基部,以及相對於基部的一個面,朝向非平行方向(例如,正交的方向)延伸的設置的複數的扇片。The heat sink is a component for releasing heat from electronic components into the air.

The heat sink, for example, has a plurality of fins. The heat sink, for example, has a base and a plurality of fins extending in a non-parallel direction (for example, an orthogonal direction) relative to one surface of the base.

放熱結構體具備導熱片10,因此能夠作為半導體装置使用。對於使用具備導熱片10的放熱結構體作為半導體装置的情況下的一例進行說明。圖3為表示半導體装置的一例的概略斷面圖。圖3所示那樣,半導體装置20具備導熱片21、電子部件22、散熱器23和散熱器24,放熱電子部件22的發熱。Since the heat dissipation structure has a heat conducting sheet 10, it can be used as a semiconductor device. An example of using the heat dissipation structure having the heat conducting sheet 10 as a semiconductor device is described. FIG3 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of a semiconductor device. As shown in FIG3, the semiconductor device 20 has a heat conducting sheet 21, an electronic component 22, a heat sink 23, and a heat sink 24, and dissipates the heat generated by the electronic component 22.

導熱片21具有2個導熱片21A和21B。導熱片21A和21B的至少一者使用上述本實施方式涉及的導熱片10。The thermally conductive sheet 21 includes two thermally conductive sheets 21A and 21B. The thermally conductive sheet 10 according to the present embodiment described above is used as at least one of the thermally conductive sheets 21A and 21B.

導熱片21A被固定於與散熱器23的電子部件22對置的主面23a,被挟持於電子部件22的上面22a與散熱器23的主面23a之間。導熱片21A與電子部件22相接,因此吸收電子部件22的發熱而傳熱至散熱器24,由散熱器24向外部放熱。The heat conductive sheet 21A is fixed to the main surface 23a of the heat sink 23 that is opposite to the electronic component 22, and is sandwiched between the upper surface 22a of the electronic component 22 and the main surface 23a of the heat sink 23. The heat conductive sheet 21A is in contact with the electronic component 22, so it absorbs the heat generated by the electronic component 22 and transfers the heat to the heat sink 24, and the heat is released to the outside by the heat sink 24.

導熱片21B設置於散熱器23的主面23a,被挟持於散熱器23與散熱器24之間。The heat conducting sheet 21B is provided on the main surface 23 a of the heat sink 23 , and is sandwiched between the heat sink 23 and the heat sink 24 .

電子部件22為例如,BGA等半導體元件,被實装於配線基板25。The electronic component 22 is, for example, a semiconductor element such as BGA, and is mounted on the wiring substrate 25 .

散熱器23例如,形成為方形板狀,具有與電子部件22對峙的主面23a、沿著主面23a的外周而立設的側壁23b以及主面23a的相反側的主面23c。The heat sink 23 is formed in a square plate shape, for example, and has a main surface 23a facing the electronic component 22, a side wall 23b standing along the outer periphery of the main surface 23a, and a main surface 23c opposite to the main surface 23a.

散熱器23在被側壁23b包圍的主面23a設置導熱片21,在主面23c設置導熱片21B。散熱器23中,側壁23b的前端面實装於配線基板25。散熱器23藉由側壁23b而隔開預定的距離以包圍電子部件22。Heat sink 23 has heat conducting sheet 21 provided on main surface 23a surrounded by side wall 23b, and heat conducting sheet 21B provided on main surface 23c. Heat sink 23 is mounted on wiring board 25 at the front end surface of side wall 23b. Heat sink 23 surrounds electronic component 22 at a predetermined distance by side wall 23b.

散熱器23具有高導熱率時,熱電阻減少,能夠效率良好地吸熱電子部件22的熱,例如,因此能夠使用導熱性良好的銅、鋁等來形成。When the heat sink 23 has high thermal conductivity, the thermal resistance is reduced and the heat of the electronic component 22 can be efficiently absorbed. Therefore, for example, the heat sink 23 can be formed using copper, aluminum, etc. having high thermal conductivity.

散熱器24設置於與導熱片21B的散熱器23側相反側的主面,在散熱器23的主面23c隔著導熱片21B而設置。The heat sink 24 is provided on the main surface of the heat conducting sheet 21B on the opposite side to the heat sink 23 side, and is provided on the main surface 23c of the heat sink 23 via the heat conducting sheet 21B.

半導體装置20中,在散熱器23的主面23a設置導熱片21A,在主面23c設置導熱片21B,因此利用導熱片21A和21B吸收電子部件22的發熱,由散熱器24得以放熱。In the semiconductor device 20 , the heat conducting sheet 21A is provided on the main surface 23 a of the heat sink 23 , and the heat conducting sheet 21B is provided on the main surface 23 c . Therefore, the heat generated by the electronic component 22 is absorbed by the heat conducting sheets 21A and 21B and dissipated by the heat sink 24 .

[揮發成分的含量] 首先,從包含熱塑性樹脂和低熔點助焊劑的混合物中作為試樣取質量1g~2g,迅速地採集於稱量罐,均勻地展開於鋁杯的底部。然後,對於鋁杯加蓋,直接使用電子天平進行稱量。稱量後,取蓋,置於稱量罐下,設置於乾燥器内,在(135±2)℃乾燥3小時。乾燥後,對於稱量罐直接加蓋,放入乾燥器,放冷直至室溫之後,稱量。由下式(1),求出熱塑性樹脂和低熔點助焊劑所包含的固體成分(%)。而且,由下式(2),從100減去求得的固體成分,從而算出熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂所包含的揮發成分的合計的含有比例。 固體成分(%)=((稱量罐+乾燥後的試樣的質量)-(稱量罐的質量))/((稱量罐+試樣的質量)-(稱量罐的質量))×100 ・・・(1) 揮發成分的合計的含有比例(%)=100-固體成分 ・・・(2) [Content of volatile components] First, take 1g to 2g of the mixture containing the thermoplastic resin and the low-melting point flux as a sample, quickly collect it in a weighing pot, and evenly spread it on the bottom of the aluminum cup. Then, cover the aluminum cup and weigh it directly using an electronic balance. After weighing, remove the lid, place it under the weighing pot, set it in a desiccator, and dry it at (135±2)℃ for 3 hours. After drying, cover the weighing pot directly, put it in a desiccator, cool it to room temperature, and then weigh it. From the following formula (1), calculate the solid content (%) contained in the thermoplastic resin and the low-melting point flux. Then, the total content ratio of volatile components contained in the thermoplastic resin and the rosin-based resin is calculated by subtracting the obtained solid content from 100 according to the following formula (2). Solid content (%) = ((Weighing tank + mass of sample after drying) - (mass of weighing tank)) / ((Weighing tank + mass of sample) - (mass of weighing tank)) × 100 ...

The laminated body is placed in a heat treatment drying device (STPH-102, manufactured by ESPEC Co., Ltd.) and continuously cured at 150°C for 60 minutes to cure the thermally conductive composition, thereby preparing a laminated body containing a cured product of the thermally conductive composition between the substrate and the copper substrate. The stacked body made using a glass substrate (20 mm × 20 mm × 1 mm) as a base material is referred to as "Stacked body 1", and the stacked body made using a Si substrate (20 mm × 20 mm × 0.775 mm) as a base material is referred to as "Stacked body 2".

(空隙面積的比例的測定) 將灰色部分進行2值化處理,從而算出空隙部分的面積。所得的圖像1和圖像2的空隙面積的比例(%)如以下那樣算出。 圖像中的面積計算使用Microsoft公司製的Excel。首先,將圖像以白黑50%(閾值128)進行二值化而作為位圖圖像進行保存。接下來,將製作的二值化位圖圖像作為二進製數據讀入Excel,取得圖像整體的像素數和白色部的像素數,計數白色部的像素數/整體的像素數,從而算出空隙面積的比例(%),圖像1(玻璃基板)和圖像2(Si基板)中,採用空隙面積的比例大的一者,採用下述基準進行評價。 -評價基準- A:空隙面積的比例小於5% B:空隙面積的比例為5%以上且小於20% C:空隙面積的比例為20%以上 (Measurement of the ratio of the void area) The gray part is binarized to calculate the area of the void part. The ratio (%) of the void area of the obtained image 1 and image 2 is calculated as follows. The area calculation in the image uses Excel made by Microsoft. First, the image is binarized at 50% white and black (threshold 128) and saved as a bitmap image. Next, the binary bitmap image is read into Excel as binary data, the number of pixels of the entire image and the number of pixels of the white part are obtained, and the number of pixels of the white part/the total number of pixels are counted to calculate the ratio (%) of the void area. The image 1 (glass substrate) and the image 2 (Si substrate) with the larger ratio of the void area are used for evaluation using the following criteria. -Evaluation criteria- A: The ratio of void area is less than 5% B: The ratio of void area is more than 5% and less than 20% C: The ratio of void area is more than 20%

[導熱率] (層疊體的製作) 在銅基板(30mm×30mm×2mm)上塗佈導熱組合物之後,配置高度0.125mm的隔離物,在隔離物上載置其它銅基板(30mm×30mm×2mm),在2張銅基板之間將導熱組合物以使厚度為0.125mm,1邊為20mm的方式夾持以製作出層疊體。將層疊體放入熱處理乾燥装置(STPH-102,ESPEC株式會社製),在150℃進行60分鐘連續固化,以使導熱組合物固化,從而製作出2張銅基板之間包含導熱組合物的固化物的層疊體。 [Thermal conductivity] (Preparation of a laminate) After applying a thermally conductive composition on a copper substrate (30 mm × 30 mm × 2 mm), a spacer with a height of 0.125 mm was placed, and another copper substrate (30 mm × 30 mm × 2 mm) was placed on the spacer. The thermally conductive composition was sandwiched between two copper substrates so that the thickness was 0.125 mm and one side was 20 mm to prepare a laminate. The laminate was placed in a heat treatment drying device (STPH-102, manufactured by ESPEC Co., Ltd.) and continuously cured at 150°C for 60 minutes to cure the thermally conductive composition, thereby preparing a laminate containing a cured product of the thermally conductive composition between two copper substrates.

(熱電阻的測定) 關於獲得的各層疊體,採用基於ASTM-D5470的方法,測定導熱組合物的固化物的一方與銅基板的界面的熱電阻(單位:℃・cm 2/W)。由其結果,減去2張銅基板的熱電阻,算出導熱組合物的固化物的熱電阻,由熱電阻與固化物的厚度,求出導熱率(W/m・K),基於下述評價基準進行評價。 -評價基準- A:導熱率為20W/m・K以上 B:導熱率為8.0W/m・K以上且小於20W/m・K C:導熱率小於8.0W/m・K (Measurement of thermal resistance) For each obtained stack, the thermal resistance (unit: ℃・cm 2 /W) of the interface between one side of the cured thermally conductive composition and the copper substrate was measured using a method based on ASTM-D5470. The thermal resistance of the two copper substrates was subtracted from the result to calculate the thermal resistance of the cured thermally conductive composition. The thermal conductivity (W/m・K) was calculated from the thermal resistance and the thickness of the cured product, and the evaluation was performed based on the following evaluation criteria. -Evaluation Criteria- A: Thermal conductivity is 20W/m・K or more B: Thermal conductivity is 8.0W/m・K or more and less than 20W/m・K C: Thermal conductivity is less than 8.0W/m・K

【表1】 【Table 1】

由表1,各實施例中,形成均勻的膜,導熱率為20W/m・K以上,但是各比較例中,導熱率小於20W/m・K,低。From Table 1, in each embodiment, a uniform film was formed, and the thermal conductivity was 20 W/m·K or more, but in each comparative example, the thermal conductivity was less than 20 W/m·K, which was low.

由此,確認了上述各實施例的導熱組合物包含熱塑性樹脂和松香系樹脂,將這些樹脂所包含的揮發成分的含量抑制為預定值以下,從而空隙面積的比例被抑制為20%以下,發揮優異的成膜性和導熱性。因此,本實施方式涉及的導熱組合物作為TIM能夠發揮高導熱性,因此例如,可以說能夠適合用於CPU、MPU、功率電晶體、LED、鐳射二極體等各種電氣器件的周邊等。Thus, it was confirmed that the thermally conductive composition of each of the above-mentioned embodiments contains a thermoplastic resin and a rosin-based resin, and the content of the volatile components contained in these resins is suppressed to below a predetermined value, thereby suppressing the ratio of the void area to below 20%, and exhibiting excellent film-forming properties and thermal conductivity. Therefore, the thermally conductive composition involved in this embodiment can exhibit high thermal conductivity as a TIM, so it can be said that it can be suitably used for the periphery of various electrical devices such as CPUs, MPUs, power transistors, LEDs, and laser diodes.
