A novel evaluation method was investigated for measuring the ability of acid amplification of acid amplifier. The method was based on the measurement of conductivity change by the acid generation according to UV radiation. It was found that the decrease of conductivity was caused by photopolymerization of epoxy monomer during UV curing process of ink film and by the rate of UV curing. In this paper, the novel acid amplifiers were synthesized and measured thermal stability by means of DSC. It was found that mono-type acid amplifiers were more stable than di-type. It was possible to make the dynamical evaluation of the curing rate of UV curable ink in curing process by this method.

UV-Curing technology can be classified into two categories for radical curing and cation curing. It also has mainly focused on surface finishing technology to improve functionality of various substrates such as plastics and metals. On the other hand, EB technology has dealt with cross-linking reactions as well as polymerization process to create novel functional materials. Both technologies have advantages in energy utilizing efficiency and environmental friendly when compared to conventional thermoset coatings. Consequently, UV cured coatings also permits a reduction in the $CO_2$ and VOCs emitted in the drying and curing process. This review mainly shows radical curing technology which is commonly used in UV curing coatings and also describes the technology trends of cation curing which has been attracted attention recently.

UV curable acryl resin, pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs), are used in many different parts in the world. In particular, PSAs has been used in the wafer manufacturing process of semiconductor industry. As wafers become much thinner, UV curable PSAs require more proper adhesion performance. In this study, acrylic PSAs containing hydroxyl groups were synthesized using monomers of 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate, styrene monomer and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. Isocyanate modified UV curable PSAs were then prepared by the adduct reaction that facilitates the UV curing property via controlling the amount of methacryloyloxyehtyl isocyanate. The proper adhesion performance and UV curing behavior of UV curable PSAs with various hydroxyl values were studied, and experimental conditions were then optimized to raise the efficiency of wafer manufacturing process. It was found that in case of using the equivalent ratio of 1 : 1 isocyanate hardener used in the UV curable PSAs, the peel strength before the UV curing process decreased as the amount of hydroxyl groups increased in the PSAs. The peeling adhesive strength was also decreased with increasing UV dose due to high curing characteristics.

Many methods for cross-linking acrylic PSAs have been discussed previously. For high cross-linking density, epoxy functionalized monomer and methyl aziridines as cross-linking agents were used in this study. Additionally, photopolymerization using different UV doses was investigated to synthesize a binder because of its rapid productivity. FT-IR analysis, curing behaviours and adhesion performance were examined for the relationship between UV doses and temperature as curing conditions. According to the results, the gel fraction was over 50% even at $120^{\circ}C$ after UV curing at a dose of $800mJ/cm^2$. On the other hand, while gel fractions of all samples reached approximately 80% only at $180^{\circ}C$ in thermal curing for 1 hour, gel fractions of the samples after thermal curing for 3 hours increased rapidly above $120^{\circ}C$ regardless of UV doses and reached approximately 100% at $180^{\circ}C$. This means that the second cross-linking reaction, esterification, is mainly dependent on the curing temperature.

미국의 매엽 전문 이노새사들이 양질의 품질로 보담하는 UV인쇄에 매료되는 데는 많은 이유가 있다. 먼저, UV인쇄에 사용되는 공식 잉크들은 경화되거나 장기 보존처리를 위해 인쇄물 표면이 UV방사선에 노출되는 결과를 통해 시각적으로는 고광택을 발휘하며 이 외에도 은은한 코팅, 빛나는 색깔, 살아있는 섬세함, 심지어 현재 인기가 오르고 있는 비코팅 매엽 인쇄물까지 잘 표현하고 있다. 물론 여기에는 잉크가 즉시 경화된다는 사실이 전해진다.

In this study, a silver paste capable of UV curing without using any solvent was developed. The viscosity and viscoelasticity of the silver paste developed as a solvent-free type were measured. And after printing the pattern by screen printing, an electrode coating film was formed by UV curing. Conductivity, pencil hardness, and adhesive force of the formed electrode coating film were evaluated. Finally, the curing characteristics of the electrode coating film were evaluated by TGA and FT-IR. Summarizing these results, in terms of conductivity, adhesion, and curing characteristics, it was found that Paste (4), that is, silver paste obtained by mixing 1.2 ㎛ spherical silver powder and 50 nm silver powder at 72:8% had the best physical properties.

The UV hard coating materials are attracting more and more attention to modern industry, in terms of the development of low or non solvent coating materials which will contribute to economizing both materials and energy and to reducing pollution. This study was performed in order to invent UV curable coating materials containing colloidal silica which have actual industrial applications. As results of experiments, the oligomers type and the concentration of colloidal silica acrylate oligomer (SAOC) have an influence on various especially, The properties of UV hardening cooling, such as chemical, abrasion resistance and weatherability, were greatly enhanced, the impact properties of coated polycarbonate substrate were improved compared with the noncoated that. The UV cured films containing 30 wt% SAOC obtained showed the best properties.

Raw sap of essential oil in Korean Dendropanax lacquer was extracted with ethanol, and which was cured by using ROMP (ring opening metathesis polymerization, one of olefin metathesis). Curing behavior with subsequent film properties were studied and compared with conventional curing (under ambient conditions) and UV photo curing. The compositional changes of major ingredients in the lacquer before and after curing were studied by using GC-MS (gas chromatography mass spectrometry). ROMP-cured coating film showed higher gel contents (40%) as compared to those of conventional (8%) and UV curing (25%). ROMP curing with 2 wt% Grubbs' catalyst at $100^{\circ}C$ completed curing reaction within 2 h, which was much faster than that of conventional curing. The quality of coating film prepared with ROMP was more homogeneous and wrinkle-free as compared with that with UV curing. It was found that major ingredients of sesquiterpenes, such as ${\alpha}$-selinene, ${\beta}$-selinene, and ${\delta}$-cadinene were reacted in ROMP, as well as polyacetylenes.

UV curable adhesives with different acrylic functionalities were synthesized for temporary bonding and debonding process in 3D multi-chip packaging process. The aim is to study various factors which have an influence on UV curing. The properties and curing behaviors were investigated by gel fraction, peel strength, probe tack, and shear adhesion failure temperature. The results show that the properties and curing behaviors are dependent on not only acrylic functionalities of binders but also UV doses and coating thickness.
