In addition, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments described herein. However, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the embodiments described herein can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, methods, procedures, and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the related relevant feature being described. Also, the description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the embodiments described herein. The drawings are not necessarily to scale, and the proportions of certain parts may be exaggerated to better illustrate details and features of the present disclosure.

[0014] The term "comprising," when utilized, means "including, but not necessarily limited to"; it specifically indicates open-ended inclusion or membership in the so-described combination, group, series, and the like.

[0015] An exemplary embodiment of a resin composition comprises a styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer. The resin composition further comprises a plurality of hydrated inorganic substances and/or a plurality of microcapsule particles dispersed in the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer. The hydrated inorganic substances form anhydrous inorganic substances by chemical dehydration at a dehydration temperature greater than 250 degrees Celsius. Each microcapsule particle comprises a housing and an embedded object encapsulated therein. The embedded object will largely volatilize from the housing at an escaping temperature greater than 250 degrees Celsius.

[0016] In at least one embodiment, the resin composition comprises 100 parts by weight of the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer, at least one of about 1 part by weight to about 50 parts by weight of the hydrated inorganic substances and about 5 parts by weight to about 50 parts by weight of the microcapsule particles.

[0017] In at least one embodiment, the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer has a chemical structural formula of

##STR00001##

wherein the degree of polymerization x is about 30 to about 90, the degree of polymerization y is about 10 to about 70, the degree of polymerization m and the degree of polymerization n each is a natural number greater than 1.

[0018] In at least one embodiment, the hydrated inorganic substances can be selected from at least one of aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide. The embedded object can be selected from at least one of essence and essential oil. For example, the embedded object can be cis-Jasmone.

[0019] Each microcapsule particle has a diameter of about 3 .mu.m to about 12 .mu.m.

[0020] FIG. 1 illustrates an embodiment of a removable adhesive layer 15 made by curing the resin composition. At least one embodiment, the resin composition is cured for 15 mins at 110 degrees Celsius to form the removable adhesive layer 15. The removable adhesive layer 15 is a semi-cured layer.

[0021] In at least one embodiment, the resin composition comprises the hydrated inorganic substances or the microcapsule particles. When a temperature of the removable adhesive layer 15 is less than the dehydration temperature or the escaping temperature, the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer in the removable adhesive layer 15 further will react with each other, to reduce an adhesion of the removable adhesive layer 15 and prevent the removable adhesive layer 15 from becoming brittle. When the temperature of the removable adhesive layer 15 is greater than or equal to the dehydration temperature or the escaping temperature, gas is produced from the hydrated inorganic substances in the removable adhesive layer 15 and/or the microcapsule particles in the removable adhesive layer 15. The gas is released from the removable adhesive layer 15, to cause the removable adhesive layer 15 to be peeled off more easily, and prevent residue of the removable adhesive layer 15 from remaining.

[0022] In another embodiment, the resin composition comprises the hydrated inorganic substances and the microcapsule particles. When a temperature of the removable adhesive layer 15 is less than the dehydration temperature and/or the escaping temperature, the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer in the removable adhesive layer 15 further will react with each other, to reduce an adhesion of the removable adhesive layer 15 and prevent the removable adhesive layer 15 from becoming brittle. When the temperature of the removable adhesive layer 15 is greater than or equal to the dehydration temperature and the escaping temperature, gas is produced from the hydrated inorganic substances in the removable adhesive layer 15 and/or the microcapsule particles in the removable adhesive layer 15. The gas is released from the removable adhesive layer 15, to cause the removable adhesive layer 15 to be peeled off more easily, and prevent residue of the removable adhesive layer 15 from remaining.

[0023] FIG. 2 illustrates an embodiment of an integrated circuit (IC) substrate 1. The IC substrate 1 comprises a carrier 10, a circuit structure 13, and the removable adhesive layer 15 attached between the carrier 10 and the circuit structure 13.

[0024] FIG. 3 illustrates a flowchart of an IC packaging process using the resin composition in accordance with an exemplary embodiment. The exemplary IC packaging process is provided by way of example, as there are a variety of ways to carry out the method. Each block shown in the figure represents one or more processes, methods, or subroutines, carried out in the exemplary method. Furthermore, the illustrated order of blocks is by example only, and the order of the blocks can change. Additional blocks may be added, or fewer blocks may be utilized, without departing from this disclosure. The exemplary IC packaging process can begin at block 301.

[0025] At block 301, referring to FIG. 2, an IC substrate 1 is provided. The IC substrate 1 comprises a carrier 10, a circuit structure 13, and the removable adhesive layer 15 attached between the carrier 10 and the circuit structure 13.

[0026] At block 302, referring to FIG. 4, an integrated circuit 2 is mounted on a side of the circuit structure 13 facing away from the carrier 10 by surface mount technology. The surface mount technology applies in a mounting temperature of about 250 degrees Celsius, and each of the dehydration temperature and the escaping temperature is greater than the mounting temperature of the surface mount technology. So that, the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer in the removable adhesive layer 15 further will react with each other, to reduce an adhesion of the removable adhesive layer 15 and prevent the removable adhesive layer 15 from becoming brittle.

[0027] At block 303, referring to FIG. 5, the integrated circuit 2 is encapsulated on the IC substrate 1 by a packaging structure 3, thereby forming an intermediate structure 6.

[0028] In at least one embodiment, the packaging structure 3 is formed on the side of the IC substrate 1 with the integrated circuit 2 directly by a molding techniques.

[0029] At block 304, when the removable adhesive layer 15 comprises the hydrated inorganic substances or the microcapsule particles, the intermediate structure 6 is heated by a temperature greater than or equal to the dehydration temperature or the escaping temperature. Gas is produced by the hydrated inorganic substances or the microcapsule particles, and releases from the removable adhesive layer 15, to cause the removable adhesive layer 15 to be peeled off more easily, and prevent residue of the removable adhesive layer 15 from remaining. When the removable adhesive layer 15 comprises the hydrated inorganic substances and the microcapsule particles, the intermediate structure 6 is heated by a temperature greater than or equal to the dehydration temperature and the escaping temperature, so gas is produced by the hydrated inorganic substances and the microcapsule particles, and releases from the removable adhesive layer 15, to cause the removable adhesive layer 15 to be peeled off more easily, and prevent residue of the removable adhesive layer 15 from remaining.

[0030] At block 305, referring to FIG. 6, the removable adhesive layer 15 is peeled off from the circuit structure 13 to obtain an integrated circuit package board 5. The circuit package board 5 comprises the circuit structure 13, the integrated circuit 2, and the packaging structure 3.

[0031] Depending on the embodiment, certain of the steps of methods described may be removed, others may be added, and the sequence of steps may be altered. It is also to be understood that the description and the claims drawn to a method may include some indication in reference to certain steps. However, the indication used is only to be viewed for identification purposes and not as a suggestion as to an order for the steps.

[0039] According to Table 1 and FIGS. 7, 8 and 9, the removable adhesive layer 15 of the example retains copper peeling strength after heated at 230 degrees Celsius and 270 degrees Celsius, which is less than the copper peeling strength of the adhesive layer of the comparative example 1 after heated at 230 degrees Celsius and 270 degrees Celsius. So that the removable adhesive layer 15 of the example can be removed more easily and without residue. The removable adhesive layer 15 of the example will not be peeled off when at a mounting temperature about 250 degrees Celsius of surface mount technology, but the adhesive layer of the comparative example 2 will be peeled off when at the mounting temperature about 250 degrees Celsius of surface mount technology.
