Resumen:
This work focuses on the thermosetting materials area with applications in coatings or encapsulates for microelectronic devices and it seeks to obtain materials with better durability that after their working life, could be degraded and let the recuperation of the electronic material, which means a great advantage for the environment. The strategy followed has been the copolymerization of diglycidylether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) with mono--lactones and condensed bis--lactones using several rare earth triflates and BF3·MEA as cationic initiators and several tertiary amines as anionic iniciators. This strategy lets the introduction of ester linkages, thermal and chemically cleavable and at the same time the reduction of the shrinkage which is produced during the curing process. The incorporation of aliphatic chains, that come from lactones, between cross-linking points increases the flexibility of the polymeric network and decreases the fragility of the material. The improvement of the mechanical properties also was studied adding layered montmorillonites.
