The present invention is directed to coverlay compositions derived from two-layer polyamic acid-based composites having a cover layer and adjacent thereto an adhesive layer wherein the cover layer comprises polyamic acid and other additives allowing the composition to be photosensitive and aqueous base developable, and where the adhesive layer can form a polyimide having a glass transition temperature between 170 and 250° C. The two-layer coverlay compositions of the present invention are used to encapsulate metal circuit traces formed on a flexible printed circuit base substrate. These two-layer compositions are particularity useful due to having an overall in-plane CTE between 10 and 40 ppm/° C. a range that is useful in avoiding unwanted curling of a flexible printed circuit when used as a polyimide-based coverlay material.
本发明涉及由双层聚酰胺酸基复合材料衍生的覆盖层组合物,该组合物具有覆盖层和与之相邻的粘合剂层,其中覆盖层包括聚酰胺酸和其他添加剂,使组合物具有光敏性和
水基显影性,粘合剂层可形成
玻璃化转变温度在170-250℃之间的聚
酰亚胺。这些双层组合物特别有用,因为它们具有介于 10 至 40 ppm/° C 之间的整体平面内 CTE,当用作基于聚
酰亚胺的覆盖层材料时,该范围有助于避免柔性印刷电路不必要的卷曲。
