An epoxy-based solder paste (ESP) is a promising alternative to conventional solder pastes to improve the reliability of fine-pitch electrical joining because the epoxy encapsulates the solder joint. However, development of an appropriate epoxy formulation and investigation of its reaction mechanism with solder powder is challenging. In this study, we demonstrate a newly designed ESP consisting of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F (DGEBF) resin, Sn-3.0 Ag-0.5 Cu (SAC305) solder powder, and L-glutamic acid (Glu), which is a proteinogenic amino acid for biosynthesis of proteins in living systems. The mechanism of the thermochemical reaction was explored and tentatively proposed, which reveals that the products of the reaction between SAC305 and Glu function as catalysts for the etherification of epoxides and alcohols produced by chemical bonding between DGEBF and Glu, consequently leading to highly crosslinked polymeric networks and an enhancement of impact resistance. Our findings provide further insight into the mechanism of the reaction between various formulations comprising an epoxy, amino acid, and solder powder, and their potential use as ESPs for electrical joining. |
