Abstract

Commercial and model epoxy die-attach adhesives, with and without silver filler, were investigated to examine the effect the silver filler has on the outgassing characteristics of the organic matrix. The materials were subjected to typical temperature processing schedules including cure, preseal bake, and burn-in. The volatile species outgassing during each of the processing periods were analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Thermogravimetric and calorimetric analyses were also performed. It was determined that silver in the adhesive leads to a greater mass loss and a marked change in the outgassing species relative to the same adhesive system without silver.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
