Abstract:
A curable flux composition is provided, comprising, as initial components: a resin component having at least two oxirane groups per molecule; a fluxing agent represented by formula I: wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 are independently selected from a hydrogen, a substituted C1-80 alkyl group, an unsubstituted C1-80 alkyl group, a substituted C7-80 arylalkyl group and an unsubstituted C7-80 arylalkyl group; and wherein zero to three of R1, R2, R3 and R4 is(are) hydrogen; and, optionally, a curing agent. Also provided is a method of soldering an electrical contact using the curable flux composition.
Abstract:
A flux composition is provided, comprising, as initial components: a carboxylic acid; and, a polyamine fluxing agent represented by formula I: with the proviso that when the polyamine fluxing agent represented by formula I is according to formula Ia: then zero to three of R1, R2, R3 and R4 is(are) a hydrogen. Also provided is a method of soldering an electrical contact using the flux composition.

Abstract:
The aqueous abrasive-free composition is useful for chemical mechanical polishing of a patterned semiconductor wafer containing a nonferrous metal. The composition includes an oxidizer, an inhibitor for the nonferrous metal, 0 to 15 weight percent water soluble modified cellulose, 0 to 15 weight percent phosphorus compound, 0.005 to 5 weight percent of an acidic polymer, and water. The acidic polymer has a methacrylic acid portion having a carbon number of 4 to 250. The methacrylic acid portion includes either methacrylic acid or an acrylic acid/methacrylic acid copolymer. The acidic polymer including a segment from a mercapto-carboxylic acid chain transfer agent.
Abstract:
This invention is directed to a method for eliminating or reducing pinhole defects in cataphoretically deposited films without interfering with the electrolysis of water needed for electrodeposition. This method comprises decreasing the evolution of hydrogen gas at the cathode by adding a compound to the emulsion. This compound is reduced by the hydrogen produced at the cathode during the electrodeposition. The hydrogen reacts with the this non-gaseous compound rather than becoming hydrogen gas and forming bubbles which lead to pinhole defects.
Abstract:
Photoresist compositions and methods suitable for depositing a thick photoresist layer in a single coating application are provided. Such photoresist layers are particularly suitable for use in chip scale packaging, for example, in the formation of metal bumps.
