Abstract
A reworkable epoxy underfill encapsulant is provided for use in an electronic packaged system which incorporates an integrated circuit, an organic printed wire board, and at least one eutectic solder joint formed therebetween. A preferred embodiment of the encapsulant includes: a cycloaliphatic diepoxide; an organic hardener; a curing accelerator; a silica filler; and an additive, with the additive providing thermal reworkability to the composition. A method is also provided for forming the aforementioned reworkable epoxy underfill encapsulants.
