Abstract

Abstract An epoxy resin composition which comprises a curable epoxy resin, a hardener, and a block copolymer formed by the reaction of a triphenol-alkane type resin or a polymer thereof with a specific organopoly-siloxane. The composition provides a cured product having a high glass transition point, a low coefficient of expansion, good crack resistance, and is less likely to exert stress to the semiconductor devices. It exhibits distinct characteristics when used as a sealing compound for semiconductor devices, especially in the case where the element is bonded directly to a printed circuit board or heat sink. It is very unlikely that a semiconductor device sealed with it would become warped.
