Definitions
- the present invention relates to an optical adhesive sheet.
- a display panel has a laminated structure including elements such as a pixel panel, a polarizing film, and a cover film.
- elements such as a pixel panel, a polarizing film, and a cover film.
- an optically transparent adhesive sheet optical adhesive sheet is used to bond the elements included in the laminated structure.
- optical adhesive sheets having water peeling properties
- the optical adhesive sheet is an optical adhesive sheet that can reduce the adhesive strength by infiltrating droplets of an aqueous liquid (water droplets, etc.) into the interface between the adherend and the adhesive sheet after being attached to an adherend. After being attached to an adherend, such an optical adhesive sheet can be easily peeled from the adherend using water as necessary.
- a defect such as misalignment
- the adhesive sheet can be peeled from the adherend using water, and a replacement optical adhesive sheet can be used for the attachment work (water reworkability).
- Such water peeling optical adhesive sheets for display panel applications are described, for example, in Patent Document 1 below.
- Patent Document 1 describes an optical adhesive sheet containing an acrylic-based polymer and a surfactant.
- the surfactant is dispersed in a free state in the adhesive sheet.
- the presence of the surfactant on the adhesive surface results in water removability.
- the surfactant has low compatibility with the acrylic-based polymer.
- the surfactants gradually gather together on the adhesive surface, causing uneven dispersion of the surfactant (non-uniformity of the surfactant).
- Non-uniformity of the surfactant reduces the water removability of the optical adhesive sheet and impairs its water reworkability.
- the present inventors have obtained this knowledge regarding the adhesive sheet of Patent Document 1.
- the present invention provides an optical adhesive sheet that can sustainably ensure good water reworkability.
- the present invention [1] includes an optical adhesive sheet containing a base polymer, wherein the base polymer is a photopolymer of a polymerizable component containing a reactive surfactant, and the optical adhesive sheet has an adhesive strength Fn1 of 1.4 N/10 mm or more in the initial peel test described below, and an adhesive strength Fw1 of 1.2 N/10 mm or less in the first water peel test described below.
- Initial peel test First, a 10 mm wide ⁇ 100 mm long adhesive sheet piece of the optical adhesive sheet is attached to an alkaline glass plate prepared by a float process to obtain a laminate (preparation step). Next, the laminate is subjected to a heating and pressurizing treatment under conditions of 50° C., 0.5 MPa and 15 minutes (heating and pressurizing step), and then the laminate is left to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes (standing step). Next, the adhesive sheet piece is peeled off from the alkaline glass plate by pulling one end of the adhesive sheet piece in the longitudinal direction under conditions of 25°C, relative humidity of 50%, peel angle of 180° and pulling speed of 300 mm/min, and the adhesive strength is measured (measurement step).
- First water peel test The method is the same as the initial peel test, except that a water supplying step is performed after the standing step and before the measurement step.
- a water supplying step 20 ⁇ L of distilled water is supplied onto the alkali glass plate of the laminate so that the distilled water contacts one end of the adhesive sheet piece in the longitudinal direction at the interface between the alkali glass plate and the adhesive sheet piece.

- Second water peel test The test was the same as the first water peeling test, except that in the standing step, the laminate was stood at room temperature for 72 hours.
- the present invention [5] includes the optical adhesive sheet according to the above [4], which has an adhesive strength Fn2 in the following room temperature peel test, and the ratio of the adhesive strength Fw2 to the adhesive strength Fn2 is 0.4 or less.
- Room temperature peel test The test was the same as the initial peel test, except that in the standing step, the laminate was stood at room temperature for 72 hours.
- the optical adhesive sheet of the present invention has a base polymer that is a photopolymer of a polymerizable component containing a reactive surfactant, and has an adhesive strength Fn1 of 1.4 N/10 mm or more in an initial peel test, and an adhesive strength Fw1 of 1.2 N/10 mm or less in a first water peel test. That is, the optical adhesive sheet contains a base polymer having a portion derived from a reactive surfactant (surfactant-derived portion), and has an adhesive strength Fw1 (initial adhesive strength under water supply conditions) of 1.2 N/10 mm or less with respect to an adhesive strength Fn1 of 1.4 N/10 mm or more (initial adhesive strength under water non-supply conditions).
- such an optical adhesive sheet After being bonded to an adherend, such an optical adhesive sheet can ensure sufficient water peelability and good water reworkability.
- the surfactant since the surfactant is substantially fixed in the base polymer, the surfactant is prevented from becoming non-uniform on the adhesive surface of the optical adhesive sheet. This ensures the stability of water reworkability over time in the optical adhesive sheet. Therefore, the optical adhesive sheet of the present invention can continuously ensure good water reworkability.
