Problems solved by technology

However, in order to satisfy this physical property, it is necessary to manipulate the components in the resin composition. In order to satisfy this physical property, the adjustable range of the material of the resin composition and the component ratio in the composition is limited, and it is also difficult to ensure other physical properties such as elasticity.
In addition, in the case of a resin with an excessively high elongation, there is a limit to the ability to follow the substrate, and it is difficult to sufficiently follow the substrate during curing after bonding to prevent the occurrence of gaps.
In addition, when an external pressure is generated on the touch panel having a cured product layer formed of a curable resin composition, or when strain is generated on the substrate due to an environmental load, there is also a problem that the peeling of the substrate cannot be effectively prevented only by the adhesiveness.

no. 1 approach

[0127] figure 1 It is a process drawing which shows 1st Embodiment of the manufacturing process of the optical member using the ultraviolet curable resin composition of this invention.

[0128] This method is a method of obtaining an optical member by bonding the liquid crystal display unit 1 and the transparent substrate 2 together.

[0129] The liquid crystal display unit 1 is a liquid crystal display unit in which a liquid crystal material is sealed between a pair of substrates on which electrodes are formed, and includes a polarizing plate, a driving circuit, a signal input cable, and a backlight unit.

[0130] The transparent substrate 2 is a glass plate, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) plate, polycarbonate (PC) plate, alicyclic polyolefin polymer (COP) plate, acrylic resin, polyethylene terephthalate and other transparent substrates. For transparent substrates, hard coat treatment and anti-reflection treatment can be performed on one or both sides.

Abstract

This invention provides a UV-curable resin composition for use in a touchscreen. Said resin composition makes it possible to obtain, with high productivity, an optical member, such as a display unit, that exhibits good curing performance and adhesion. When said resin composition is applied to optical substrates and cured via exposure to ultraviolet light after said optical substrates are bonded together, the resulting cured-resin layer follows the contours of the substrates, minimizing gaps. Said resin composition, which is used to bond two or more optical substrates together, is characterized by containing a liquid softening component (A), a solid softening component (B), a photopolymerizable oligomer (C), a photopolymerizable monomer (D), and a photopolymerization initiator (E), wherein the mass ratio between the liquid softening component (A) and the solid softening component (B) is between 51:49 and 99:1.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an ultraviolet curable resin composition for bonding at least two optical substrates together and a method for producing an optical member using the composition. Background technique [0002] In recent years, display devices in which a touch panel is bonded to a display screen of a display device such as a liquid crystal display, a plasma display, or an organic electroluminescent (EL) display to enable screen input have been widely used. This touch panel has a structure in which a glass plate or a resin film formed with a transparent electrode is bonded facing each other with a small gap, and a transparent protective plate made of glass or resin is bonded to the touch surface as necessary. [0003] There is a technology of using a double-sided adhesive sheet for bonding a glass plate or film on which a transparent electrode is formed in a touch panel and a transparent protective plate made of glass or resin, or for bond...
