An epoxy resin composition having excellent heat resistance and moisture resistance, which is a mixture of a phenol resin and an inorganic filler such as fused silica or crystalline silica, is used. However, in recent years, in the market trend of miniaturization, weight reduction, and high performance of electronic devices, semiconductor elements have been highly integrated year by year, and surface mounting of semiconductor devices has been promoted. The demands on the epoxy resin composition used are becoming increasingly severe. Particularly in the current situation where surface mounting of semiconductor devices is becoming common, the absorbed semiconductor device is exposed to high temperature during solder reflow processing, and peels off at the interface between the semiconductor element or lead frame and the cured product of the epoxy resin composition. Occurs, resulting in cracks in the semiconductor device, which greatly impair the reliability of the semiconductor device, and prevention of these defects, that is, improvement of solder crack resistance is a major issue.

Replacement of lead-free solder is underway. Since the solder containing no lead has a higher melting point than the conventional solder, the reflow temperature during surface mounting is about 20 ° C. higher than that of the conventional solder.
0 ° C is required. By changing the solder reflow temperature for soldering that does not contain lead, peeling at the interface between the cured product of the epoxy resin composition and the pad, and peeling at the interface between the semiconductor element and the semiconductor resin paste The problem of cracks has arisen. These solder cracks and peeling are considered to be caused by moisture absorption by the semiconductor device itself before the solder reflow treatment, and the moisture causing steam explosion at high temperature during the solder reflow treatment. Techniques such as imparting low hygroscopicity to the composition are used. As one of the methods for reducing the hygroscopicity, for example, in the general formula (1) of low hygroscopicity, X 1 , X 2 ,
An epoxy resin composition using an epoxy resin in which Y 1 and Y 2 are both H, and a phenol resin in which X 3 , X 4 , Y 3 , and Y 4 are both H, which are represented by the general formula (2) and have low hygroscopicity. There is a method for reducing the moisture absorption of the cured product. However, even with an epoxy resin composition using this low hygroscopic resin component,
It has been insufficient as an epoxy resin composition compatible with lead-free solder. Therefore, in order to improve the solder crack resistance during surface mounting at 260 ° C., improvements including further lowering of water absorption are desired for the cured product of the epoxy resin composition.

In recent years, there has been a movement to reduce or eliminate substances that may be harmful due to the importance of corporate activities that consider the global environment. Epoxy resin compositions with excellent flame retardancy without using halogen-based flame retardants or antimony compounds. Development is required. Examples of environment-friendly flame retardants that can replace these include metal hydroxides such as aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide, and phosphorus-based flame retardants.However, epoxy resin compositions containing a large amount of the former have both moldability and curability. However, there is a problem that it is not sufficiently satisfactory, and a semiconductor device using an epoxy resin composition containing the latter even in a small amount deteriorates the stability of electric characteristics under high temperature and high humidity, that is, the resistance value of the semiconductor device is less than time. However, there is a problem that the semiconductor element increases in number with the occurrence of defective conduction, and it is not possible to meet all requirements.

The epoxy resin represented by the general formula (1) used in the present invention has two or more epoxy groups in one molecule, has a hydrophobic structure between each epoxy group, and has X 1 , X 2 ,
At least one of Y 1 and Y 2 is other than H. A cured product of an epoxy resin composition using an epoxy resin represented by the general formula (1) has a long distance between cross-linking points due to a hydrophobic structure between epoxy groups, and therefore has a modulus of elasticity in a high temperature range exceeding a glass transition temperature. Low, X 1 in the general formula (1),
Compared with a cured product of an epoxy resin composition using an epoxy resin in which X 2 , Y 1 and Y 2 are both H, it has a feature that the moisture absorption rate is lower because it contains many hydrophobic structures.
As a result, it is possible to develop the feature of being able to withstand the thermal stress at the time of surface mounting soldering at 260 ° C. In addition, since the distance between the cross-linking points is long due to the hydrophobic structure between the epoxy groups, the cured product of the epoxy resin composition becomes very soft at the temperature during combustion, so the heat generated inside the cured product during combustion is The decomposed gas expands the cured product layer like rubber to form a foamed layer, and the foamed layer blocks oxygen to the unburned part and has an adiabatic effect, which is extremely flame retardant. is doing. In this case, the elastic modulus in the temperature range during combustion is important, and if the layer of the cured product is too hard, the pyrolysis gas generated inside the cured product does not form a foam layer and cracks occur in the cured product. On the contrary, if the layer of the cured product is too soft, the foamed layer is formed but the foamed layer is easily broken, so that the flame retardancy is considered to be lowered.

It is preferably 0.1 to 10, more preferably 0.2 to 5. This is because when the proportion of phenol is high, the curability and strength are improved, but the moisture absorption resistance is lowered, and when the proportion of alkylphenol is high, the moisture absorption resistance is improved, but the curability and strength are lowered. Alkylphenols used are ortho, para, and meta.
There are two types of isomers, and two or more types may be used in combination. For example, when Z 1 is CH 3 , it is preferable to use an ortho or a mixture of three kinds because it is easily available as an industrial product. Further, in that case, the aldehyde source used for the synthesis is not particularly limited, but formaldehyde or paraformaldehyde is preferable because it is industrially mass-produced and inexpensive.

ある。In the present invention, one or more phenolic resins selected from the group consisting of the phenolic resin represented by the general formula (2) and the phenolic resin represented by the general formula (3) are used. It is more preferable to use the phenol resin of both the general formula (2) and the general formula (3) as a material compatible with no solder. By using the phenol resin represented by the general formula (3) in combination with the general formula (2), the melt viscosity upon heating is further lower than that of the epoxy resin composition using only the phenol resin represented by the general formula (2). Since it is an epoxy resin composition, the low elasticity of the general formula (2),
While maintaining the characteristic of low moisture absorption to some extent, the fluidity of the epoxy resin composition is improved, the inorganic filler can be further highly filled, and even higher strength can be obtained. The crack of the semiconductor device generated during the solder reflow treatment is caused by peeling at the interface between the cured product of the epoxy resin composition and the lead frame or peeling at the interface between the cured product of the epoxy resin composition and the semiconductor element. By obtaining an epoxy resin composition having low moisture absorption and high strength, peeling of these can be reduced, and the solder crack resistance of the semiconductor device can be significantly improved. The weight ratio [(2) / (3)] of the phenol resin represented by the general formula (2) and the phenol resin represented by the general formula (3) is 0.1 to 10
Is preferred. If it is less than 0.1, the moisture absorption and elasticity of the cured product of the epoxy resin composition are not sufficient, and the flame retardancy of the cured product is reduced, while if it exceeds 10, the inorganic filler is highly filled. In some cases, the cured product cannot be sufficiently strengthened.

た方が好ましい。The content of the inorganic filler is preferably 65 to 95% by weight based on the total epoxy resin composition. If the lower limit is exceeded, the moisture absorption of the cured product of the epoxy resin composition will increase, and since the strength at the solder processing temperature will decrease, cracks will easily occur in the semiconductor device during solder processing, while the upper limit If it exceeds, the fluidity of the epoxy resin composition at the time of molding may be lowered, and unfilling or pad shift of a semiconductor element may easily occur. If the inorganic filler is blended as much as possible, the moisture absorption rate of the cured product of the epoxy resin composition will be decreased and the solder crack resistance will be improved, so the blending amount was as much as possible within the range in which the fluidity during molding is allowed. Is preferred.
