Adhesive Preparation

[0107] In a brown glass reaction vessel was placed Irgacure 651 and Ethyl Acetate in the amounts shown in Table 13. Once all of the solids were dissolved, Polyacrylate A was added and the resulting mixture was mixed well. To this mixture was added either EBECRYL 1561 or EPON 828 or ERL 4221; TTE; CD1012 and Benzophenone (BZP) in the amounts shown in Table 13.

Laminate Preparation

[0108] After mixing, the solution for example 12 was coated onto the non-metallized side of an AR Film, dried at 70° C. for 10 minutes to yield a 37.5 μm thick dry PSA tape.

[0117] The adhesive samples described in Examples 4, 5, and 7 were used to prepare protective coatings on KE Film. The adhesive solution was coated onto the T-30 Release Liner, dried at 70° C. for 10 minutes to yield a 50.8 μm thick dry PSA film. Two samples of this PSA film were laminated onto each surface of a KE Film to form a laminate of release liner / adhesive / KE Film / adhesive / release liner. The laminates were irradiated (through the release liners) with a Fusion UV Curing System “D” bulb, 50 feet / minute, 2 passes for each side, for a total UVA (320-390 nm) dose of about 1 J / cm2 for each side. The release liner was removed from the cured adhesive after 24 hours. The laminate of cured adhesive / KE Film / cured adhesive was then aged for 500 hours using the test methods outlined above, the results are shown in Table 20.

Abstract

Described are curable adhesives containing a polyacrylate component and an epoxy component, and that are preferably optically clear, as well as methods of using such adhesives and optical components and optical elements prepared from the adhesives.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional of U.S. Ser. No. 10 / 005,669, filed Nov. 2, 2001, now allowed, the disclosure of which is herein incorporated by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The invention relates to curable adhesives, particularly including a polyacrylate and any epoxy component. The invention further relates to methods of using such adhesives and to articles prepared using the adhesives, such as optical products. BACKGROUND [0003] Curable adhesives are useful in industry. An example of curable adhesives is the type described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,252,694. Specific applications for pressure sensitive adhesives, having sufficient clarity, involve the preparation of optical elements. See, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,180,200 and 5,897,727. Curable pressure sensitive adhesives can be useful and preferred due to their ability to be applied to substrates while the adhesive is tacky like a pressure sensitive adhesive, and to subsequently cure the adhesive to form a secure ...
