Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a polyfunctional phenolic resin and a polyfunctional epoxy resin having low viscosity and having excellent mechanical properties and heat resistance of a cured product to be obtained, a curable resin composition containing these, and a cured product thereof. Specifically, provided are a polyfunctional phenolic resin formed with a naphthol structure optionally having a substituent on an aromatic ring and a catechol structure optionally having a methyl group as a substituent on an aromatic ring bonded together via a methylene group optionally having a substituent, a polyfunctional epoxy resin obtained by epoxidizing the polyfunctional phenolic resin, a curable resin composition containing any of these, and a cured product thereof.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A polyfunctional phenolic resin formed with a naphthol structure optionally having a substituent on an aromatic ring and a catechol structure optionally having a methyl group as a substituent on an aromatic ring bonded together via a methylene group optionally having a substituent; wherein the polyfunctional phenolic resin is represented by Structural Formula (1) below: in Structural Formula (1), R is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, or an aryl group; R 1 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; R 2 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; n is an integer of 0 to 3; m is an integer of 0 to 6; 1 is an integer of 1 to 4; n+1 is 4; and a plurality of R 1 and R 2 are optionally same as or different from each other. 2. The polyfunctional phenolic resin according to claim 1 , wherein R, R 1 , and R 2 in Structural Formula (1) above are hydrogen atoms. 3. A curable resin composition comprising: the polyfunctional phenolic resin according to claim 1 ; and a curing agent (X). 4. A cured product of the curable resin composition according to claim 3 . 5. A fiber-reinforced composite material comprising: the curable resin composition according to claim 3 ; and reinforcing fibers. 6. A fiber-reinforced molded article as a cured product of the fiber-reinforced composite material according to claim 5 . 7. A semiconductor sealing material comprising: the curable resin composition according to claim 3 ; and an inorganic filler. 8. A semiconductor device comprising a cured product of the semiconductor sealing material according to claim 7 . 9. A prepreg as a semi-cured product of an impregnated base material comprising the curable resin composition according to claim 3 and a reinforcing base material. 10. A circuit board comprising: a plate-shaped body of the curable resin composition according to claim 3 ; and copper foil. 11. A build-up film comprising: a cured product of the curable resin composition according to claim 3 ; and a base film. 12. A polyfunctional epoxy resin as a reaction product of a polyfunctional phenolic compound formed with a naphthol structure optionally having a substituent on an aromatic ring and a catechol structure optionally having a methyl group as a substituent on an aromatic ring bonded together via a methylene group optionally having a substituent and epihalohydrin; wherein the polyfunctional epoxy resin is represented by Structural Formula (2) below: in Structural Formula (2), G is a glycidyl group; R is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, or an aryl group, R 1 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; R 2 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; n is an integer of 0 to 3; m is an integer of 0 to 6; 1 is an integer of 1 to 4; n+1 is 4; and a plurality of R 1 and R 2 are optionally same as or different from each other. 13. The polyfunctional epoxy resin according to claim 12 , wherein R, R 1 and R 2 in Structural Formula (2) above are hydrogen atoms. 14. A curable resin composition comprising: the polyfunctional epoxy resin according to claim 12 ; and a curing agent (Y). 15. A cured product of the curable resin composition according to claim 14 . 16. A fiber-reinforced composite material comprising: the curable resin composition according to claim 14 ; and reinforcing fibers. 17. A semiconductor sealing material comprising: the curable resin composition according to claim 14 ; and an inorganic filler.
