The present invention relates to electrically conductive ink compositions used in combination with agents which reduce the curing temperature of the ink compositions, and methods of producing these compositions. The compositions can be cured to form highly conductive metal traces on low temperature substrates.
Materials for printing electrical circuits on electrical conductor substrates are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,882,722, 6,036,889, 6,143,356 and 6,379,745, the entire disclosures of which are expressly incorporated herein by reference, and are known as PARMOD® materials. PARMOD® materials have been developed for printing conductive circuits on polymer or paper substrates such as those used for printed wiring boards, flexible circuits and RFID antennae. Using PARMOD® materials and a simple print-and-heat process for “chemical welding” of pure metals, electrical conductors made of a single-phase continuous well-bonded metal trace are produced, rather than conductors made of individual particles that may be in adventitious contact with each other, as are found in polymer thick film containing materials. PARMOD® materials provide a desirable alternative to the conventional polymer thick film compositions that are cured at high temperatures onto ceramic or glass based substrates. PARMOD® materials are cured at temperatures which polymer and paper based substrates can withstand, and provide electrical conductivity comparable to the pure metal and at least a factor of five greater than most known polymer thick films.
PARMOD® compositions have been printed on polyimide films coated with various adhesive layers and thermally cured to create flexible printed circuits. Suitable substrates are: KAPTON® type FN with a FEP TEFLON® coating; KAPTON types KJ and LJ with low melting polyimide coatings; and polyimide substrates with a polyamic acid coating. PARMOD® compositions have been printed directly on certain grades of FR-4 epoxy-glass laminates and thermally cured to produce well-bonded rigid printed circuits.
However, a significant problem in the manufacture of PARMOD® products is that thermal treatment of PARMOD® materials can damage low-temperature substrates such as polymer or paper, and cause mechanical and dimensional instability to the printed circuits. For example, the cure temperature for “chemically welding” PARMOD® silver into circuit traces is 200° C. This curing temperature limits the choice of substrates to those with high thermal resistance, such as polyimides and epoxies. Many polymer and paper substrates cannot be processed at these temperatures.
Although low temperature sintering of metal toners has been observed on certain substrates, see, e.g., WO 01/45935, specific temperature lowering additives to promote low temperature sintering have not heretofor been defined or shown to be advantageous in the manufacture of conductive ink compositions.
Thus, there is a need for PARMOD® methods and compositions such as inks which have a minimum cure temperature that is compatible with substrates of commercial interest and which still retain the highly conductive properties of the PARMOD® materials.
The present application provides ink compositions which include agents that lower the minimum curing temperature of the ink compositions. The ink compositions of the present invention may be used on low-temperature substrates in the manufacture of highly conductive electrical circuits.
It has been found that the minimum cure temperature for the ink compositions can be reduced by adding the agents directly to the ink compositions, or by coating the substrates onto which the ink compositions are applied with the temperature lowering agents.
Accordingly, in one embodiment the invention provides a conductive ink composition comprising a reactive organic medium (ROM), a metal powder or flake, and a cure temperature lowering agent.
Preferably, the ROM comprises a metallo-organic decomposition compound, an organic reactive reagent which can react with the metal powder or flake to form a metallo-organic decomposition compound, or a mixture thereof. The metal powder or flake may be silver or other suitable metal.
The cure temperature lowering agent is selected from halogen containing polymers including polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene vinyl chloride, or copolymers thereof; or organic glycol ethers, including dipropylene glycol methyl ether and the like.
The ink composition may also include an organic liquid vehicle to facilitate mixing and application of the mixture to the substrate.
The present invention also provides a method of preparing a solid pure metal conductor on a substrate comprising the steps of (a) mixing (i) a metallo-organic decomposition compound; (ii) a metal flake or powder in an amount 1 to 20 times the amount of the metallo-organic decomposition compound by weight; and (iii) a cure temperature lowering agent; (b) printing the mixture formed in step (a) onto the substrate; and (c) heating the substrate at a critical temperature less than 200° C. for a time sufficient to cure the printed mixture; wherein the printed mixture is converted into a well-consolidated well-bonded pure metal conductor.
The present invention further provides a method for preparing a solid pure metal conductor on a substrate comprising the steps of (a) mixing (i) a metallo-organic decomposition compound; (ii) a metal flake or powder in an amount 1 to 20 times the amount of the metallo-organic decomposition compound by weight; (b) coating the substrate with a cure temperature lowering agent; (c) printing the mixture formed in step (a) onto the substrate; and (d) heating the substrate at a critical temperature less than 200° C. for a time sufficient to cure the printed mixture; wherein the printed mixture is converted into a well-consolidated well-bonded pure metal conductor.
The composition of the invention is advantageously applied to low-temperature polymer substrates, paper and polyimide-based substrates using any suitable printing technique to provide circuit traces of high electrical conductivity.
PARMOD® mixtures contain a reactive organic medium (ROM) and metal flakes and/or metal powders. The ROM comprises either a metallo-organic decomposition compound or an organic reagent which can form such a compound upon heating in the presence of the metal flakes and/or metal powders, or a mixture thereof. The ingredients are blended together with organic vehicles, if necessary, to improve the viscosity or dispersibility of the ink composition. These ink compositions can be printed on temperature-sensitive substrates, and cured at commercially desirable temperatures low enough so that the substrate is not damaged, to form well-consolidated electrical conductors. The curing process occurs in seconds at temperatures as much as 500° C. below the temperatures used for conventional sintering of thick film inks and pastes. As used herein the term “critical temperature” means the temperature at which the composition decomposes and is cured. Using the PARMOD® process, the metal compositions decompose at temperatures far below their known normal decomposition temperatures. During the curing process, material deposited from decomposition of the metallo-organic decomposition compound “chemically welds” the powder constituents of the PARMOD® mixture together into a solid. A porous but continuous metal trace is produced which has a density approximately half that of bulk metal and an electrical conductivity per unit mass which may be as high as half that of the bulk metal.
The compositions of the present invention improve certain PARMOD® materials by including a cure temperature lowering agent. The cure temperature lowering agent is an agent that lowers the minimum curing temperature required to “chemically weld” the ink composition, thereby improving the application of the PARMOD® materials to various low-temperature substrates, especially those substrates which can only be exposed to temperatures below 150° C. during the curing process.
This invention provides a method for curing PARMOD® compositions at temperatures compatible with polymer and paper substrates while maintaining high metal conductivity after curing. This approach has been demonstrated on a number of rigid and flexible substrates such as FR4 epoxy-glass rigid board, various high temperature flexible substrates such as KAPTON® H, but is especially attractive in that it has also been demonstrated on low temperature substrates such as polyester at heat treating temperatures as low as 120° C. to 125° C. Thus, the compositions of the present invention are suitable for use with low temperature substrates such as polyester, as well as with substrates that can withstand higher temperatures, such as paper, and those that withstand even higher temperatures, such as epoxies.
The concentration of the additive is low enough to maintain significantly higher conductivity of the resulting metal circuit traces than with polymer thick film inks.
The cure temperature lowering agent may be added directly to the PARMOD® material. Alternatively, the temperature lowering agent may be coated directly onto the substrate prior to application of the conductive PARMOD® material. In either embodiment, the ink composition is in direct contact with the temperature lowering agent, which accelerates the chemical welding of the PARMOD® material to the substrate at a lower minimum curing temperature and does not significantly interfere with the physical and chemical properties of the conductive PARMOD® material, e.g., resistivity and conductivity.
Thus, in one embodiment, the compositions of the invention comprise 1) a metal powder; 2) a ROM in which the consolidation of the metal powder to a solid conductor takes place; and 3) a cure temperature lowering agent.
The metal component is present in the composition in an amount of about 1 to 20 times the amount of the metallo-organic decomposition compound. The metal constituent comprises metal powder. It will be understood in the art that “powder” is commonly used to include both powder and flake. The metal powders suitable for use in the invention preferably have an average particle size in the range of from about 0.05 to 15 μm. Commercially available metal powders may be used. Suitable metals include copper, silver, gold, zinc, cadmium, palladium, iridium, ruthenium, osmium, rhodium, platinum, iron, cobalt, nickel, indium, tin, antimony, lead, bismuth and mixtures thereof.
The ROM provides the environment in which the metal powder mixture is bonded together to form well-consolidated conductors. Many classes of organic compounds can function as the ROM. The common characteristic which they share and which renders them effective is that they have, or can form, a bond to the metal via a heteroatom. The heteroatoms can be oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorous, arsenic, selenium and other nonmetallic elements, preferably oxygen, nitrogen or sulfur. This bond is weaker than the bonds holding the organic moiety together, and can be thermally broken to deposit the metal. In most cases the reaction is reversible, so that the acid or other organic residue can react with metal to reform the metallo-organic compound. ROM compounds are described, e.g., in U.S. Pat. No. 6,379,745.
The ROM preferably comprises any metallo-organic compound which is readily decomposable to the corresponding metal, i.e., a metallo-organic decomposition compound, an organic reagent which can react with the metal to produce such a compound or mixtures thereof. Examples are metal soaps and the corresponding fatty acids. Other examples are metal amines and metal mercapto compounds and their corresponding amino and sulfide precursors. Specific examples of preferred ROM constituents are the carboxylic acids and the corresponding metallic soaps of neodecanoic acid and 2-ethyl hexanoic acid with silver and copper, such as silver neodecanoate.
The ROM compositions can be made by methods well known in the art and are capable of decomposition to the respective metals at relatively low temperatures.
The present invention involves the addition of certain agents to metal containing ink compositions which provide a significantly lowered minimum curing temperature to the ink compositions. The cure temperature lowering agent is added in an amount sufficient to cure the printed mixture on the substrate. The cure temperature lowering agent may be present in an amount of about 1 to 10% by weight. However, amounts outside this range, for example, as low as 0.5%, may also be used, or as are commercially or practically possible. For example, higher amounts will increase the thickness and increase decomposition time. The added cure temperature lowering agent does not adversely affect the PARMOD® cure chemistry process whereby the metal chemically welds into a continuous metal network. As a result, the conductivity of the PARMOD® materials remains significantly higher than that of polymer thick film inks.
The agents that have been shown to lower the minimum curing temperature of PARMOD® compositions to substrates include polymers, such as polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene vinyl chloride, and copolymers thereof. Other halogen containing compounds are suitable, for example, those containing Br and F.
Preferred minimum cure temperature lowering agents also include organic glycol ethers, for example dipropylene glycol methyl ether, and may include dipropylene glycol butyl ether, dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether, dipropylene glycol propyl ether, and the like.
In some cases it may be convenient to add an organic liquid vehicle in an amount of 0.05 to 100 times the amount of the metallo-organic decomposition compound by weight to the compositions of the invention to enhance the printing characteristics of the compositions of the invention. Such organic liquids may be used as diluents or rheology-enhancing agents to produce a range of viscosities of printable compositions and are not reactive in the consolidation process. However, organic liquid vehicles that may additionally participate in the “welding” reaction may also be used. For example, α-terpineol has been used to reduce the viscosity of copper and silver compositions to facilitate screen printing. α-terpineol also participates in the consolidation reaction by virtue of the acid character of the OH group bonded to an unsaturated ring. Other agents commonly used in conductive ink compositions can also be added as desired to the compositions of the invention.
The constituents of the compositions are weighed out in the appropriate proportions, mixed with diluents or viscosity modifiers if needed to provide the proper consistency, and milled together by hand roll milling or machine roll milling to provide a homogeneous, printable composition. The fineness of grind of the ink typically is less than 1μ.
Substrates to which these compositions can be applied include those onto which conductive circuits are typically printed. Suitable substrates include rigid epoxy laminates, polyimide films for flexible circuits, other polymer-based electronic components, paper, such as medium card stock from Wausau, metal pads and semiconductor components. Preferred substrates include polyester-based substrates such as polyethylene terephthalate, e.g., Melinex® or Mylar®, polyethylene naphthalate, paper-based substrates, polyimide-based susbstrates, such as Apical® or Kapton®, and epoxy-based substrates, known as FR-4.
The compositions of this invention may be applied to substrates using any suitable printing technology including screen printing, rotary screen printing, gravure printing, intaglio printing, flexographic printing, letterpress printing, lithographic printing, ink jet printing and electrostatic printing. The thickness and viscosity of the applied compositions will vary depending upon the printing technique used. The compositions may range from a thickness of 350 nm with 1 centepoise (cp) viscosity using electrostatic printing, 1 to 4 microns at 50 to 200 cp by gravure printing, 4 to 50 microns by screen printing with viscosities ranging from 30,000 to 100,000 cp, and 10 to 25 microns by rotary screen printing at 3,000 cp.
According to the present invention, the agents that lower the minimum curing temperature of PARMOD® compositions can also be coated directly onto the substrate, as an alternative to being added directly to the ink compositions. The cure temperature lowering agents, including polymers such as polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene vinyl chloride, and copolymers thereof, may be coated onto various substrates at a thickness of from about 1 to 15μ.
Accordingly, the ink compositions are prepared as described above, however, without the addition of the cure temperature lowering agent. The substrate is first coated with the cure temperature lowering agent, allowed to dry, and then the ink composition is applied to the substrate, using any of the printing methods described above.
The ink compositions containing the cure temperature lowering agents and the ink compositions on the substrates coated with the cure temperature lowering agents are cured by exposure to heat for a short period of time. The heating time depends upon the temperature to which the substrate can be safely exposed and can vary from about 10 seconds to 30 minutes to achieve a measurable resistivity. The curing temperature will generally be below 200° C., typically between about 120° C. to 200° C., however the temperature will depend upon the decomposition temperature of the metallo-organic compound. For example, for silver, the curing temperature of compositions of the invention will range from 120° C. to 180° C. Temperatures higher than 120° C. generally shorten curing times; thus the selection of curing temperature will be governed by practical considerations of time and commercial requirements.
The examples described below indicate how the individual constituents of the preferred compositions and the conditions for applying them function to provide the desired results. The examples will serve to further typify the nature of this invention but should not be construed as a limitation to the scope thereof which scope is defined solely in the appended claims.
