This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. Section 119 to Japanese Patent Application No. 2019-230738 filed on Dec. 20, 2019, which is herein incorporated by references.
The present invention relates to a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape.
In recent years, along with a trend of the sophistication of various kinds of performance of a mobile device, the sophistication of various kinds of performance of various constituent members adopted in the mobile device has been required. In the mobile device, a double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape is sometimes adopted for the bonding of a casing or the like. The sophistication of various kinds of performance of the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape has also been required in recent years.
There is a risk in that the mobile device falls depending on its use form. Accordingly, a mobile device having high impact resistance has been required. An impact-absorbing member is sometimes arranged outside the casing of the mobile device for improving the impact resistance of the mobile device. However, in such form, the size of the mobile device may increase or its design property may be impaired.
In view of the foregoing, it is desired that excellent impact resistance be imparted to the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape that may be arranged in the mobile device.
A double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet having impact resistance has recently been reported (Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 2015-120876). The double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet includes a base material made of a foam as an essential component for expressing the impact resistance. However, when the foam is extended to a certain extent or more, or a force is applied thereto, the foam is torn to have a smaller area or to become thinner. As a result, there is a problem in that the cell portions of the foam occupy a large part of an adhesion portion between the sheet and an adherend to reduce an adhesive property therebetween.
Further, the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet to be used for the mobile device is often bonded to an expensive member, and hence is required to have satisfactory reworkability in rebonding or the like. However, the related-art double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet may cause a problem of, for example, being torn during reworking, and the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet to be used for the mobile device has been required to have excellent reworkability.
An object of the present invention is to provide a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape that can express both of excellent impact resistance and excellent reworkability.
According to at least one embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, including: a base material layer; and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer arranged on at least one side of the base material layer, wherein the base material layer has a specific gravity of 0.8 g/cm3 or more, and wherein the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape has a 100% modulus at 23° C. and 50% RH of 50 MPa or less.

When the impact resistance is so low as to fall outside the ranges, there is a risk in that a laminate that can express high impact resistance cannot be provided.
The base material layer may be a single layer, or may include two or more layers. In the case of two or more layers, all of the base material layers may have the same composition, or at least one of the base material layers may be different from the other(s) in composition.

The base material layer is preferably formed of a resin film containing a resin material as a main component.
As used herein, the term “main component” means a component blended at the highest ratio, typically a component contained at more than 50 wt %.
The content of the resin material in the resin film is preferably more than 50 wt % and 100 wt % or less, more preferably from 60 wt % to 100 wt %, still more preferably from 70 wt % to 100 wt %, still more preferably from 80 wt % to 100 wt %, particularly preferably from 90 wt % to 100 wt %, most preferably from 95 wt % to 100 wt %.
As used herein, the term “resin film” typically refers to a substantially unfoamed resin film. That is, herein, the resin film may be substantially free of cells that are present inside the resin film (voidless). Therefore, herein, the concept of “resin film” is distinguished from a so-called foam film. In addition, herein, the resin film is typically a substantially non-porous film, which is a concept to be distinguished from a so-called nonwoven fabric or woven fabric. Herein, the following may be preferably adopted as the resin film: a base material free of a porous layer, such as a foam, a nonwoven fabric, or a woven fabric, that is, a base material formed of a non-porous layer. The resin film generally tends to be excellent in mechanical strength, such as tensile strength, as compared to a foam, a nonwoven fabric, or a woven fabric.
Examples of the resin material for forming the resin film include a polyolefin-based resin (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene, an ethylene-propylene copolymer, or an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer), a polyvinyl chloride-based resin (typically a soft polyvinyl chloride-based resin), a polyvinyl acetate-based resin, a polyurethane-based resin (e.g., ether-based polyurethane, ester-based polyurethane, or carbonate-based polyurethane), a urethane (meth)acrylate-based resin, a thermoplastic elastomer (e.g., an olefin-based elastomer, a styrene-based elastomer, or an acrylic elastomer), a polyester-based resin (e.g., polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, or polybutylene naphthalate), a polycarbonate-based resin, a polyamide-based resin, a polyimide-based resin, a fluororesin, and a cellulose-based resin, such as a cellophane resin. Those resin materials may be used alone or in combination thereof. A preferred example of the resin material for forming the resin film is at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a polyolefin-based resin, a polyvinyl chloride-based resin, a polyurethane-based resin, and a polyester-based resin, and a more preferred example is a polyolefin-based resin or a polyurethane-based resin. That is, a preferred example of the resin film is at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a polyolefin-based resin film, a polyvinyl chloride-based resin film, a polyurethane-based resin film, and a polyester-based resin film, and a more preferred example is a polyolefin-based resin film or a polyurethane-based resin film. When the resin film is the above-mentioned resin film, a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape that can express both of more excellent impact resistance and more excellent reworkability can be provided.
In at least one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the resin film is a polyolefin-based resin film containing a polyolefin-based resin as a main component. Specifically, the content of the polyolefin-based resin in the polyolefin-based resin film as a whole is preferably from 50 wt % to 100 wt %, more preferably from 70 wt % to 100 wt %, still more preferably from 90 wt % to 100 wt %, particularly preferably from 95 wt % to 100 wt %, most preferably substantially 100 wt %. When the resin film as a whole contains the polyolefin-based resin as a main component, the effect of the present invention can be further expressed.
Herein, a case described as “substantially 100 wt %” means that a trace amount of an impurity or the like may be contained to such an extent that the effect of the present invention is not impaired, and such case may be generally described as “100 wt %”.
The resin film as a whole may contain only one kind of polyolefin-based resin, or two or more kinds of polyolefin-based resins.
Any appropriate polyolefin-based resin may be adopted as the polyolefin-based resin to such an extent that the effect of the present invention is not impaired. From the viewpoint that the effect of the present invention can be further expressed, an example of such polyolefin-based resin is at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a polyethylene-based resin, a polypropylene-based resin, and a polybutene-based resin, and a preferred example is at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a polyethylene-based resin and a polypropylene-based resin.
Any appropriate polyethylene-based resin may be adopted as the polyethylene-based resin to such an extent that the effect of the present invention is not impaired. An example of such polyethylene-based resin is at least one kind selected from the group consisting of low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), ultralow-density polyethylene, medium-density polyethylene (MDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), ultrahigh-density polyethylene, and a copolymer of ethylene and another monomer (e.g., an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, an ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer, an ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer, an ethylene-acrylic acid ester copolymer, an ethylene-methacrylic acid ester copolymer, an ethylene-butene-1 copolymer, an ethylene-propylene-butene-1 copolymer, a copolymer of ethylene and an α-olefin having 5 to 12 carbon atoms, or an ethylene-non-conjugated diene copolymer), and a preferred example is at least one kind selected from the group consisting of low-density polyethylene and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
The polyethylene-based resin may be a metallocene-catalyzed polyethylene-based resin obtained using a metallocene catalyst.

The polypropylene-based resin may be a metallocene-catalyzed polypropylene-based resin obtained using a metallocene catalyst.

The polybutene-based resin may be a metallocene-catalyzed polybutene-based resin obtained using a metallocene catalyst.
In at least one other exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the base material layer is a polyurethane-based resin film containing a polyurethane-based resin as a main component. The polyurethane-based resin film is typically formed from a material showing substantially no yield point. The polyurethane-based resin film can also achieve satisfactory physical properties without even the addition of, for example, an additive component, such as a plasticizer, and hence can serve as a base material layer that is preferred in the technology disclosed herein also because of the prevention of such additive component from bleeding out.
Specifically, the content of the polyurethane-based resin in the polyurethane-based resin film as a whole is preferably from 50 wt % to 100 wt %, more preferably from 70 wt % to 100 wt %, still more preferably from 90 wt % to 100 wt %, particularly preferably from 95 wt % to 100 wt %, most preferably substantially 100 wt %. When the resin film as a whole contains the polyurethane-based resin as a main component, the effect of the present invention can be further expressed.
The polyurethane-based resin film may be a film formed of a polymer blend of the polyurethane-based resin and another resin. The other resin is preferably, for example, at least one kind selected from the group consisting of an acrylic resin, a polyolefin-based resin, a polyester-based resin, and a polycarbonate-based resin.
The polyurethane-based resin is a polymer compound synthesized by subjecting a polyol (e.g., a diol) and a polyisocyanate (e.g., a diisocyanate) to a polyaddition reaction at a predetermined ratio. The NCO/OH ratio of polyurethane only needs to be appropriately set on the basis of common general technical knowledge of a person skilled in the art so as to achieve desired mechanical characteristics (e.g., breaking strength, elongation at break, and tensile recovery).
Examples of the polyol that may be used in the synthesis of the polyurethane-based resin include: a diol, such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol, 1,4-butanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, neopentyl glycol, 1,6-hexanediol, 1,8-octanediol, polyoxytetramethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, or polypropylene glycol; a polyester polyol, which is a polycondensate of the diol and a dicarboxylic acid (e.g., adipic acid, azelaic acid, or sebacic acid); and a carbonate diol, such as a polyalkylene carbonate diol. Those polyols may be used alone or in combination thereof.
Examples of the polyisocyanate that may be used in the synthesis of the polyurethane-based resin include aromatic, aliphatic, and alicyclic diisocyanates, and multimers (e.g., dimers and trimers) of the diisocyanates. Examples of the diisocyanates include tolylene diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, xylylene diisocyanate, hydrogenated xylylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, hydrogenated diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 1,5-naphthylene diisocyanate, 1,3-phenylene diisocyanate, 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate, butane-1,4-diisocyanate, 2,2,4-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate, 2,4,4-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate, cyclohexane-1,4-diisocyanate, dicyclohexylmethane-4,4-diisocyanate, 1,3-bis(isocyanatomethyl)cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane diisocyanate, and m-tetramethylxylylene diisocyanate. Those diisocyanates may be used alone or in combination thereof. Of the diisocyanates, an aromatic diisocyanate is preferred because the effect of the present invention can be further expressed.
Another copolymerization component may be introduced into the polyurethane-based resin in addition to the polyol and the polyisocyanate. Examples of the other copolymerization component include a monocarboxylic acid, a dicarboxylic acid, a polycarboxylic acid that is tri- or higher functional, a hydroxycarboxylic acid, an alkoxycarboxylic acid, and derivatives thereof. The other copolymerization components may be used alone or in combination thereof.
It is appropriate that the ratio of the other copolymerization component be set to about less than 30 wt % (e.g., less than 10 wt %, typically less than 5 wt %) in the polyurethane-based resin.
The base material layer may contain any appropriate additive as required. Examples of the additive that may be contained in the base material layer include a release agent, a UV absorber, a heat stabilizer, a filler, a lubricant, a colorant (e.g., a dye), an antioxidant, an anti-build up agent, an anti-blocking agent, a foaming agent, and polyethyleneimine. Those additives may be used alone or in combination thereof. The content of the additive in the base material layer is preferably 10 wt % or less, more preferably 7 wt % or less, still more preferably 5 wt % or less, particularly preferably 2 wt % or less, most preferably 1 wt % or less.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer may be a single layer, or may include two or more layers. In the case of two or more layers, all of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers may have the same composition, or at least one of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers may be different from the other(s) in composition.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed from a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed from the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition by any appropriate method. Examples of such method include: a method (direct method) involving applying the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition serving as a formation material for the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer onto any appropriate base material (e.g., a base material film), and drying the composition as required, to form the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on the base material; and a method (transfer method) involving applying the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to a surface having releasability (release surface), and drying the composition as required, to form the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on the surface having releasability (release surface), and transferring the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer onto any appropriate base material (e.g., a base material film). The surface having releasability (release surface) is, for example, the surface of the release liner described in the foregoing.
Any appropriate application method may be adopted as a method of applying the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to such an extent that the effect of the present invention is not impaired. Examples of such application method include roll coating, gravure coating, reverse coating, roll brushing, spray coating, an air knife coating method, and extrusion coating with a die coater or the like. Active energy ray irradiation, such as UV irradiation, may be performed for curing an applied layer formed by the application.
The drying of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may be performed under heating from the viewpoints of, for example, the acceleration of the cross-linking reaction of the composition and an improvement in production efficiency of the tape. A drying temperature may be typically set to, for example, from 40° C. to 150° C., and is preferably from 60° C. to 130° C. After the drying of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, aging may be further performed for the purposes of, for example, adjusting the migration of a component in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, advancing the cross-linking reaction, and alleviating strain that may be present in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.
The thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is preferably from 10 μm to 1,000 μm because the effect of the present invention can be further expressed, and the thickness is more preferably from 20 μm to 700 μm, still more preferably from 30 μm to 500 μm, particularly preferably from 40 μm to 300 μm, most preferably from 50 μm to 200 μm.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition contains at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a monomer component (m) and a polymer component (P) obtained by the polymerization of the monomer component (m). That is, typically, the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may have any one of the following forms: a form that contains the polymer component (P) and is substantially free of the monomer component (m) (form 1); a form that contains the monomer component (m) and is substantially free of the polymer component (P) (form 2); and a form that contains both of the monomer component (m) and the polymer component (P) (form 3).

The form that contains the monomer component (m) and is substantially free of the polymer component (P) (form 2) is a form in which, at the stage of the preparation of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, substantially no polymerization of the monomer component (m) occurs, and hence the polymer component (P) has not been formed yet. In the form, the polymer component (P) may be formed by, for example, curing the applied layer formed by the application of the prepared pressure-sensitive adhesive composition through active energy ray irradiation, such as UV irradiation.
The form that contains both of the monomer component (m) and the polymer component (P) (form 3) is a form in which, at the stage of the preparation of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, part of the molecules of the monomer component (m) are polymerized to form a partial polymer, and the molecules of the monomer component (m) that are unreacted remain. In the form, the polymer component (P) may be formed by, for example, curing the applied layer formed by the application of the prepared pressure-sensitive adhesive composition through active energy ray irradiation, such as UV irradiation.
In the case of the form 1 (form that contains the polymer component (P) and is substantially free of the monomer component (m)), the content of the polymer component (P) in the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is as follows: when the total amount of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is set to 100 parts by weight, the content of the polymer component (P) is preferably from 50 wt % to 100 wt %, more preferably from 60 wt % to 100 wt %, still more preferably from 70 wt % to 100 wt %, particularly preferably from 80 wt % to 100 wt %.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may contain any appropriate colorant from the viewpoint of, for example, adjusting its light transmissivity (light-shielding property) to such an extent that the effect of the present invention is not impaired. A conventionally known pigment or dye may be used as such colorant.

When a case in which the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape according to at least one embodiment of the present invention includes, as illustrated in
Now, the present invention is described specifically by way of Examples. However, the present invention is by no means limited to Examples. Test and evaluation methods in Examples and the like are as described below. The term “part(s)” in the following description means “part(s) by weight” unless otherwise specified, and the term “%” in the following description means “wt %” unless otherwise specified.
A weight-average molecular weight was determined from a value in terms of standard polystyrene obtained by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). An apparatus available under the model name “HLC-8320 GPC” (column: TSKgel GMH-H(S), manufactured by Tosoh Corporation) was used as a GPC apparatus.
A double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape obtained in each of Examples and Comparative Examples was cut into a size measuring 10 mm wide by 50 mm long to produce a test piece. The test piece was pulled up and down in respective perpendicular directions at a chuck-to-chuck distance of 20 mm and a rate of 50 mm/min, and the force was measured and converted into a stress.
A double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape obtained in each of Examples and Comparative Examples sandwiched between release liners was punched into a frame shape having a width of 2 mm and an outer shape of 24.5-millimeter square to provide an evaluation sample. The evaluation sample was arranged between a square stainless-steel plate having a thickness of 2 mm and an outer shape measuring 50 mm by 50 mm, the plate having a hole measuring 20 mm long by 20 mm wide in its central portion, and a square stainless-steel plate (having an outer shape of 25 mm square and a thickness of 3 mm), and was pressure-bonded onto the plates (62 N×10 seconds) so that a force was uniformly applied to the sample in the gravity direction. After that, the resultant was left at rest under 80° C. for 30 minutes and taken out. After that, the resultant was returned to an environment at 23° C. to provide a test piece. A columnar measuring stand having a length of 50 mm, an outer diameter of 49 mm, and an inner diameter of 43 mm was arranged on the pedestal of a Du Pont-type impact tester (manufactured by Toyo Seiki Seisaku-sho, Ltd.), and the test piece was mounted thereon so that the square stainless-steel plate was on a lower side. A stainless-steel impact shaft having a tip radius of 3.1 mm was mounted on the test piece, and the weight of a falling weight and its falling height were changed as follows to increase energy until the peeling of the tape occurred: when the weight was 100 g, the height was changed from 50 mm to 500 mm in increments of 50 mm; when the weight was 150 g, the height was changed from 350 mm to 500 mm in increments of 50 mm; when the weight was 200 g, the height was changed from 400 mm to 500 mm in increments of 50 mm; and when the weight was 300 g, the height was changed from 350 mm to 500 mm in increments of 50 mm. At this time, no test was performed for energy that had already been evaluated, and the load and the height were set so that the amounts of energy did not overlap each other. After that, energy immediately before the peeling was calculated from the expression “loadxheight”, and was adopted as a result. An energy until the peeling of 0.3 J or more is required in actual use.
The double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape obtained in each of Examples and Comparative Examples sandwiched between release liners on both sides was cut into a size measuring 10 mm wide by 50 mm long to produce a test piece.
One release liner of the test piece was peeled off, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer surface of the test piece was pressure-bonded to a stainless-steel plate (SUS304BA plate) (manufactured by Nippon Kinzoku Co., Ltd.), which had been washed with toluene, by one pass back and forth with a 2 kg roller. The resultant was stored under heating at 50° C. for 24 hours. After that, the other release liner was peeled off, and a short-side end portion of the test piece was peeled from the stainless-steel plate and continued to be pulled in a direction perpendicular to the adherend to determine whether or not the test piece was peelable without being torn. A case in which the test piece was able to be peeled off without being torn was judged as “o”, and a case in which the test piece was unable to be peeled off was judged as “x”.

After that, the other release liner was peeled off, and a short-side end portion of the test piece was peeled from the stainless-steel plate and continued to be pulled at an angle of 30° with respect to the adherend to determine whether or not the test piece was peelable without being torn. A case in which the test piece was able to be peeled off without being torn was judged as “o”, and a case in which the test piece was unable to be peeled off was judged as “x”.
<Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive Strength with Respect to SUS>

Under an environment at 23° C. and 50% RH, the peel strength of the measurement sample (pressure-sensitive adhesive strength with respect to SUS) (N/20 mm) was measured with a tensile tester in conformity with JIS Z0237:2000 under the conditions of a peel angle of 180° and a peel rate of 300 mm/min. A universal tensile and compression testing machine (apparatus name: “Tensile and Compression Testing Machine, TCM-1kNB” manufactured by Minebea Co., Ltd.) was used as the tensile tester. In the measurement, as required (for example, when a base material is liable to deform), the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape serving as a measurement object may be reinforced by bonding an appropriate backing material thereto. For example, a PET film having a thickness of about 50 μm may be used as the backing material, and this backing material was used in each of Examples and Comparative Examples described herein.
