The present invention relates to a pressure-sensitive adhesive agent convertible into an adhesive agent (hereinafter sometimes referred to as convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent), and more specifically, to a convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent with sinterability, which has pressure-sensitive adhesive property before being sintered, and has adhesive property after being sintered.
A sinterable adhesive agent typified by an aqueous dispersion of inorganic particles (see, for example, Patent Literature 1) does not have pressure-sensitive adhesive property. Therefore, the sinterable adhesive agent involves difficulty in reattachment of adherends to each other. In addition, such sinterable adhesive agent requires time or heat treatment before achieving fixation after being applied, and hence is difficult to cut into a sheet shape by punching or the like.
On the other hand, a pressure-sensitive adhesive agent (see, for example, Patent Literature 2) has an advantage of allowing adherends to be instantly fixed to each other. However, there is a problem in that, when exposed to a high-temperature atmosphere such as one in a fire, the pressure-sensitive adhesive agent is peeled from the adherends owing to decomposition of its polymer component.
An object of the present invention is to provide a convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent which allows adherends to be instantly fixed to each other, allows the adherends to be reattached to each other, is excellent in processability such as being able to be cut into a sheet shape, and is not peeled from the adherends even when exposed to a high-temperature atmosphere such as one in a fire.

According to the present invention, it is possible to provide the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent which allows adherends to be instantly fixed to each other, allows the adherends to be reattached to each other, is excellent in processability such as being able to be cut into a sheet shape, and is not peeled from the adherends even when exposed to a high-temperature atmosphere such as one in a fire. The convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention preferably has extremely excellent heat resistance.
A convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention has pressure-sensitive adhesive property before being sintered, and has adhesive property after being sintered. Herein, the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention means a convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent before being sintered. That is, the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention has pressure-sensitive adhesive property as it is, and its adhesive property is expressed by performing sintering.
The term “pressure-sensitive adhesive” as used in the present invention refers to, as defined in JIS, a kind of adhesive property which is temporary and can be exerted by applying only a slight pressure. In addition, the property involves cohesive strength and elasticity, and hence allows peeling from a hard smooth surface while exerting strong adhesive property. A pressure-sensitive adhesive agent is a soft solid, and does not cause a change in state unlike an adhesive agent. The pressure-sensitive adhesive agent wets an adherend and resists peeling while keeping its original state, and hence can instantly exert adhesive strength on a practical level upon attachment of adherends to each other. That is, the pressure-sensitive adhesive agent has liquid property to wet an adherend (fluidity) in combination with solid property to resist peeling (cohesive strength). The pressure-sensitive adhesive agent is a soft solid, and hence its contact area with an adherend gradually increases through the application of a pressure or the passing of time. In addition, the pressure-sensitive adhesive agent can keep the softness for a long time period, and hence has property of allowing peeling to be performed when the peeling is desired.
The term “adhesive” as used in the present invention refers to, as defined in JIS, property of allowing surfaces of solids of the same kind or different kinds to be attached to each other into integration. An adhesive agent is a liquid having fluidity when adherends are attached to each other, and wets the adherends and conforms thereto. After that, the adhesive agent is converted to a solid by heating or chemical reaction to firmly bond the adherends at their interface and to exert the ability to resist peeling. That is, the adhesive agent wets an adherend as a liquid and exerts adhesive property as a solid.
The convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention contains sinterable particles and a polymer component.

When the content ratio of the sinterable particles in the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention falls within the range, there can be sufficiently expressed such an effect that the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent is extremely hardly peeled from an adherend even when exposed to a high-temperature atmosphere such as one in a fire.
The sinterable particles in the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention preferably contain two or more kinds of sinterable particles having different deformation points.

When the deformation point of the sinterable particle having the lowest deformation point falls within the range, the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention can express extremely excellent heat resistance to an additional degree.

Such sinterable particles are preferably inorganic particles each having sinterability, more preferably sinterable particles each formed of at least one kind of component selected from silicic acid, boric acid, borosilicic acid, aluminum oxide, calcium oxide, sodium oxide, lithium oxide, and phosphorus oxide.

A specific method of measuring the pressure-sensitive adhesive strength is described later.

The convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention may be produced by any appropriate method as long as the production method can provide a convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent containing the sinterable particles and the polymer component.
As a preferred production method for the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention, there is given, for example, a method involving: partially polymerizing a polymerizable composition, which contains the monomer components to be used for forming the polymer component and any appropriate photopolymerization initiator, to prepare a polymerizable syrup; adding the sinterable particles to the polymerizable syrup, followed by uniform dispersion of the sinterable particles in the polymerizable syrup; then applying the dispersion onto any appropriate backing (such as a separator); and subjecting the resultant to photopolymerization (curing) by photoirradiation.
Any appropriate condition may be adopted as a condition for the photoirradiation, such as a light source, irradiation energy, an irradiation method, or an irradiation time.
An active energy ray to be used in the photoirradiation is, for example, an ionizing radiation such as an α-ray, a β-ray, a γ-ray, a neutron beam, or an electron beam, or UV light. Of those, UV light is preferred.
Irradiation with the active energy ray is performed by using, for example, a black-light lamp, a chemical lamp, a high-pressure mercury lamp, or a metal halide lamp.
Heating may be performed in the polymerization. Any appropriate heating method may be adopted as a heating method. Examples of the heating method include a heating method involving using an electrothermal heater and a heating method involving using an electromagnetic wave such as an infrared ray.

As apparent from Table 2, it was confirmed that the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agents of the present invention was peeled from the glass plate to a reduced degree even when exposed to a high temperature of 200° C., and was not peeled from the glass plate even when exposed to a higher temperature of 700° C. On the other hand, it was confirmed that each of the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesives agent according to Comparative Examples was peeled from a half or more of the glass plate when exposed to a high temperature of 200° C., and was completely peeled from the glass plate when exposed to a higher temperature of 700° C.
Thus, it is found that the convertible pressure-sensitive adhesive agent of the present invention allows adherends to be instantly fixed to each other, allows the adherends to be reattached to each other, is excellent in processability such as being able to be cut into a sheet shape, and is not peeled from the adherends even when exposed to a high-temperature atmosphere such as one in a fire, which means extremely excellent heat resistance.
