The adhesion strength of epoxy ortho-cresol novolac (EOCN) resin monomer to aluminum atom was calculated using Density Functional Theory (DFT). EOCN is used as a component of the epoxy molding compound which encapsulates semiconductor products. The monomer of EOCN was optimized using hybrid density...
