Resin compositions for sealing semiconductors.

摘要

A resin composition for sealing semiconductors which comprises (a) an epoxy resin having a specific structure, a modified epoxy resin composed of (i) an epoxy resin having a specific strucure or a graft polymer of an epoxy resin having a specific structure and a vinyl polymer and (ii) a silicone polymer in an oily state or as particles having an average particle size of not more than 1.0 micron, which are uniformly dispersed in the epoxy resin or the graft polymer, (b) a hardening agent (c) an inorganic filler and (d) a special polymaleimide is herein provided. The resin composition for sealing semiconductors exhibits a low thermal expansion coefficient and a low elastic modulus, generates low stress when thermal shock is applied thereto and exhibits high heat resistance during soldering even after moisture absorption. Therefore, if the composition is used to seal large-scale semiconductor devices having high degree of integration or small-sized, this semiconductors such as flat packages, there semiconductors provide high reliability.
