Abstract
The electrical properties of isotropic conductive adhesives (ICAs) with two different types of silicone-based binder containing Ag particles were examined. The ICAs were printed on glass substrates in order to prepare specimens for evaluating the electrical properties. In the case of adhesives containing a denatured silicone binder, both the curing and cooling steps in the isothermal curing process generated electrical conductivity. Adhesives that were cured at 120°C to 200°C exhibited similar values of electrical resistivity regardless of the different curing temperatures. By contrast, electrical conductivity was generated only during the cooling step when adhesives containing a dimethyl methylvinyl siloxane were isothermally cured. In this case, adhesives cured above 160°C exhibited high electrical resistivity. In evaluating the temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity, we found physical annealing to have significantly different effects on these specimens. In addition, we were able to make small sensitive variations in the properties of silicone-based ICAs by controlling the isothermal annealing and thermal cycling processes.
