Epoxy resin composition for semiconductor encapsulation and semiconductor device produced by using the same

Abstract

An epoxy resin composition for semiconductor encapsulation, which comprises: (A) an epoxy resin having at least two epoxy groups in a molecule thereof; (B) a compound having at least two phenolic hydroxyl groups in a molecule thereof; and (C) particles of a compound represented by general formula (1), the particles having a maximum particle diameter of not greater than 30 μm and a standard deviation of not greater than 5 μm, the particles being dispersed in the epoxy resin composition: wherein X1 to X5, which may be the same or different, are each a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 9 carbon atoms, or a fluorine atom. The epoxy resin composition is an encapsulation material excellent in pot life, fluidity and curability, and has a lower chloride ion content. The epoxy resin composition provides a highly reliable semiconductor device excellent in moisture resistant reliability.
