Abstract

Abstract An epoxy resin composition for semiconductor sealing which comprises, as essential components, (A) an epoxy resin comprising 50-100% by weight, based on total epoxy resin amount, of a polyfunctional epoxy resin represented by the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein n and m are each an integer of 0 or more, n+m=1-10, and R 1 , R 2 and R 3 which may be the same or different, are each selected from hydrogen atom, an alkyl group and a halogen atom, with the proviso that all of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 must not be hydrogen atom simultaneously, (B) a phenolic resin curing agent, (C) a silica filler, and (D) a curing accelerator.
