Definitions
- the present invention relates to copper powder. Moreover, this invention relates to the manufacturing method of copper powder, and the electroconductive composition containing it.
- Copper powder is used for electrical conduction between the external electrode of the electronic device and the printed wiring of the printed wiring board. It is also used for a conductive paste for an interlayer connection material that fills a wiring layer of a printed wiring board, a through-through hole provided in a multilayer printed wiring board, a via that is a non-through hole, or the like.
- copper powder is used in various applications such as conductive paste used for EMI shielding and electronic device connection, wiring paste for ceramic fired electronic parts such as capacitors and alumina substrates, etc. Appropriately shaped copper powder is used.
- the above-mentioned copper powder is often used in the form of a conductive composition mixed with a binder resin or an organic solvent, for example, in the form of a conductive paste.
- the conductivity of the conductor formed from the conductive composition depends on the proportion of the copper powder contained in the conductive composition. Even when the same proportion of copper powder is contained, the shape of the copper particles Affects the conductivity of the conductor. For example, in the case of copper powder composed of spherical copper particles, the conductivity of the conductor is greatly influenced by the content ratio of the copper powder, and it is not easy to increase the conductivity unless the content ratio of the copper powder is increased.
- dendritic copper particles are less affected by the content of copper powder on the conductivity of the conductor than spherical particles. In other words, the conductivity of the conductor is unlikely to depend on the content ratio of the copper powder. This is because dendritic copper particles have more contact points between particles than spherical copper particles.
- dendritic copper powder is not easy to be contained in a high content ratio in the conductive composition due to the low tap density. Further, dendritic copper powder is strongly aggregated and it is not easy to prepare a conductive composition with good dispersibility, and it is not easy to reduce the thickness of a conductor film formed from the conductive composition. Furthermore, it is difficult to fill the inside of a small diameter via, and it is difficult to cope with fine wiring.
- rod-shaped copper powder In addition to spherical and dendritic copper powder, rod-shaped copper powder is also known.

- the bar-shaped copper particles described in Patent Document 1 are agglomerated pieces as described above, since the tap density is high and the primary particles are coarse, the content ratio of the copper powder is increased similarly to the spherical copper particles. Otherwise, it is not easy to increase the conductivity of the conductor.
- the average particle size is a relatively large particle size of around 10 ⁇ m, it is not easy to reduce the thickness of the conductor film, it is not easy to fill the inside of a small diameter via, and it is easy to form a pattern of fine wiring Not.

東京精密社製表面粗さ形状測定器サーフコム480Bを用いて、導体膜の算術平均粗さ(Ra)を測定した。その値が1μm以下のものを表面性状良好とし(A)とし、1μm以上のものを不良(B)とした。
〔導電性組成物のビアへの充填性〕
ガラスクロス絶縁層の両面に銅箔が張り合わされた積層板上に絶縁層(厚さ50μm)/極薄銅箔層(厚さ2μm)/キャリア銅箔層(厚さ18μm)を積層して基板を得た。この基板における表面銅箔に向けてCO2レーザーを照射し、キャリア銅箔層から絶縁層にかけて有底ビアを形成した。有底ビアの開口部最大直径は60μであった。このようにして、有底ビア付プリント配線板を得た。スクリーン印刷機を用いて、比抵抗R10の測定に用いられた導電性組成物を、この有底ビアに充填した。次いで、キャリア付銅箔を剥がし、窒素雰囲気下に160℃で1時間にわたり硬化させることで有底ビア内部に導電体が充填されたプリント配線板を得た。このプリント配線板の有底ビア部の断面を研磨し、得られた断面を走査型電子顕微鏡(倍率1,000倍)で観察した。10個の有底ビアを観察し、有底ビア内部に発生した5μm以上のボイド発生率(空隙率)が10%以下の場合を良好とし(A)とし、10%未満の場合を不良(B)とした。
これに対して、比較例1の球状銅粒子からなる銅粉を用いると、導体膜の抵抗が実施例よりも高くなってしまい、また抵抗が銅粉の配合量に影響を受けやすいことが判る。比較例2のフレーク状銅粒子からなる銅粉についても比較例1と同様の傾向が観察される。樹枝状銅粉を解砕せずにそのまま用いた比較例3の銅粉を用いたのでは、分散性が極めて低いことに起因して、導電性組成物を調製できなかった。比較例4の銅粉は粒径が大きいことに起因して小径のビアへの充填性に欠けるものであった。
