Abstract

Semiconductor packaging demands materials with precisely tuned properties. We demonstrate that the thermoset processing pathway strongly influences functional properties, including moisture and thermomechanical responses. Using a model epoxy system, our findings establish pathway control as a lever to engineer thermoset performance for reliable semiconductor packaging.
