Description
[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 021,186, filed on May 7, 2020, under 35 USC §119(e). U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 021,186 is hereby incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0003] The present invention relates to a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, which is cured to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive. The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive can be used in the process of manufacturing (opto)electronic devices such as flexible organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays. Background Art
[0004] In a typical process for manufacturing flexible OLED displays, an OLED is formed on a relatively rigid substrate (e.g., a thin film metal (oxide) or a metal (oxide) coated with a polyimide varnish), and a passivation layer is formed on the surface of the OLED opposite the substrate. The weak or brittle layer needs to be protected from damage (e.g., scratches or other impacts) during further processing.
[0005] In order to protect these layers during the manufacturing process, a protective film with low adhesion is required to prevent the layers (e.g., passivation layer) from being delaminated on the surface of the OLED module during the release of the protective film after use. If the adhesion control fails (or is too low), the protective film may be delaminated prematurely. If the adhesion is a little high so as to tightly hold the layers of the OLED module, the layers may be damaged when the protective film is removed. Therefore, there is a need in the industry to provide a protective film with appropriate adhesion to protect the layers during processing, but also to remove the layers without damaging them.
[0006] It is also important that the surface of the layer remains clean so that additional films or layers can be laminated thereto after the protective film is removed. Therefore, there is a need in the industry to provide a protective film with low migration so that after the protective film is removed, no adhesive from the protective film or minimal adhesive from the protective film remains on the surface of the layer in the flexible OLED device. Summary of the invention

Also provided is a method for preparing a protective film from an organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive film.

[0016] The starting material (A) can be prepared by a condensation reaction or an equilibrium reaction using a (meth)acryloyl functional silane reagent with reference to "Chemistry and Technology of Silicone", Noll, Academic Press, 1968, Chapter 5, pp. 190-245. Hereinafter, the actual method for preparing polydiorganosiloxane (A) is described as follows, but is not limited to these methods. For example, polydiorganosiloxane (A) can be prepared by a one-pot synthesis method using silanol fluid, (meth)acryloyl functional dialkoxysilane and a capping agent in the presence of a trifluoromethanesulfonic acid catalyst. Heptane or toluene is used to promote the removal of methanol by azeotropic distillation. Water is also added to the reaction to ensure the complete hydrolysis of 3-methacryloyloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane. After the reaction is completed, a neutralizing agent (such as calcium carbonate) is used to neutralize trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and filtered out after treatment. Another method can be prepared by pre-hydrolysis of (meth)acryloyl functional dialkoxysilane and subsequent condensation / disproportionation reaction involving silanol fluid and end-capping agent in the presence of phosphazene catalyst (described in U.S. Pat. No. 9,051,428 to Davio et al.). Toluene is used to reduce viscosity and facilitate removal of water / methanol by azeotropic distillation. After the reaction is completed, a neutralizing agent (such as trialkylamine and disilazane derivatives) is used to neutralize the acidic catalyst and filtered out after treatment.
[0017] Depending on the choice of the intermediate, various structures of the polydiorganosiloxane (A) can be obtained. The (meth)acryloyl functional dialkoxysilane can be selected from 3-[dimethoxy(methyl)silyl]propyl methacrylate (CAS#14513-34-9) and 3-[dimethoxy(methyl)silyl]propyl acrylate (CAS#13732-00-8).

[0051] The polyorganosilicate resins can be prepared by any suitable method, such as co-hydrolysis of the corresponding silanes or by a silica hydrosol end-capping method. The polyorganosilicate resins can be prepared by a silica hydrosol end-capping method, such as those disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 2,676,182 to Daudt et al.; U.S. Pat. No. 4,611,042 to Rivers-Farrell et al.; and U.S. Pat. No. 4,774,310 to Butler et al. The above-mentioned method of Daudt et al. involves reacting a silica hydrosol with a hydrolyzable triorganosilane (such as trimethylchlorosilane), a siloxane (such as hexamethyldisiloxane), or a mixture thereof under acidic conditions, and recovering a copolymer having M units and Q units. The resulting copolymer typically contains 2 to 5 weight percent hydroxyl groups.
[0052] The intermediates used to prepare the polyorganosilicate resin may have two, three or four hydrolyzable substituents per molecule, for example, they may be diorganoalkoxysilanes, triorganoalkoxysilanes and silanes or alkali metal silicates having four hydrolyzable substituents. The intermediates may have the formula R M 2SiX 1 2 and R M SiX 1 3, where R M Selected from the above R 1 , R 2 and R 3 , and X 1= represents a hydrolyzable substituent. A silane having four hydrolyzable substituents may have the formula SiX 2 4, where each X 2 is halogen, alkoxy or hydroxy. Suitable alkali metal silicates include sodium silicate.
[0053] The polyorganosilicate resins prepared as described above typically contain silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups, i.e., of the formula HOSi 3 / 2 , HOR M SiO 2 / 2 and / or HOR M 2SiO 1 / 2 The polyorganosilicate resin may contain up to 5% silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups. The concentration of silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups present in the polyorganosilicate resin may be determined using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy according to ASTM standard E-168-16. For certain applications, it may be desirable that the amount of silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups be 2% or less, alternatively less than 0.7%, alternatively less than 0.3%, alternatively less than 1%, and alternatively 0.3% to 0.8%. The silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups formed during the preparation of the polyorganosilicate resin may be converted to triorgano (e.g., trihydrocarbyl) siloxane groups or different hydrolyzable groups by reacting the organosilicate resin with a silane, disiloxane, or disilazane containing appropriate terminal groups. The silane containing the hydrolyzable group may be added in an excess molar amount of the amount required to react with the silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups on the polyorganosilicate resin.
[0054] Alternatively, the polyorganosilicate resin may further comprise 2% or less, alternatively 0.7% or less, and alternatively 0.3% or less, and alternatively 0.3% to 0.8% of the compound represented by formula X 2 SiO 3 / 2 , X 2 R M SiO 2 / 2 and / or X 2 R M 2SiO 1 / 2 Represents a unit, where R M and X 2 As mentioned above.
[0055] Alternatively, the polyorganosilicate resin may have a terminal aliphatic unsaturated group (R 3).

The type of photoradical initiator is not particularly limited, however, some photoradical initiators, especially those containing a thioether group, a phosphinate group or a phosphine oxide group, may inhibit the hydrosilylation reaction catalyst, and therefore, when such a photoradical initiator is included, it may be necessary to control the appropriate amounts of (D) the hydrosilylation reaction catalyst and (I) the additive and / or the curing temperature / time may be adjusted.
[0069] The amount of photoinitiator in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition will depend on various factors, including the desired reaction rate, the photoinitiator used, and the selection and amount of the starting materials (A) and (B) and their corresponding (meth)acryloyloxyalkyl group content, however, the amount may be 1 to 20 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the starting material (A). Alternatively, the amount of photoinitiator may be 0.1 to 10% by weight, alternatively 0.5 to 5% by weight, based on the combined weight of the starting materials (A), (B) and (C) in the composition.
[0070] (F) Hydrosilylation Reaction Inhibitor
[0071] The starting material (F) in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is a hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor (inhibitor) which can optionally be used to alter the rate of reaction of the silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms of the starting materials (A), (B) and (C) with the aliphatic unsaturated hydrocarbon groups compared to the reaction rate of the same starting materials but omitting the inhibitor. Examples of inhibitors are acetylenic alcohols such as dimethyl hexynol and 3,5-dimethyl-1-hexyn-3-ol, 1-butyn-3-ol, 1-propyn-3-ol, 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol, 3-methyl-1-butyn-3-ol, 3-methyl-1-pentyn-3-ol, 3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-ol, 4-ethyl-1-octyn-3-ol, 3,5-dimethyl-1-hexyn-3-ol and 1-ethynyl-1-cyclohexanol (ETCH), and combinations thereof; cycloalkenyl siloxanes such as methylvinylcyclosiloxanes, exemplified by 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-1,3,5,7-tetravinylcyclotetrasiloxane, 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-1,3,5,7-tetrahexenylcyclotetrasiloxane and combinations thereof; ene-yne compounds such as 3-methyl-3-pentene-1-yne, 3,5-dimethyl-3-hexene-1-yne and combinations thereof; triazoles such as benzotriazole; phosphines; thiols; hydrazines; amines such as tetramethylethylenediamine, 3-dimethylamino-1-propyne, n-methylpropargylamine, propargylamine and 1-ethynylcyclohexylamine; fumarate esters including fumarate dialkyl esters such as fumarate diethyl ester and / or fumarate dienyl esters such as fumarate diallyl ester and / or fumarate diallyloxyalkyl esters; maleates such as maleate diallyl ester and maleate diethyl ester; nitriles; ethers; carbon monoxide; olefins such as cyclooctadiene, divinyltetramethyldisiloxane; alcohols such as benzyl alcohol; and combinations thereof.
[0072] Alternatively, the inhibitor may be a silylated acetylenic compound. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the addition of a silylated acetylenic compound reduces the yellowing of the reaction product prepared by the hydrosilylation reaction compared to the reaction product obtained by the hydrosilylation of the starting materials that do not contain a silylated acetylenic compound or contain an organic acetylenic alcohol inhibitor such as those described above.
[0073] Examples of silylated acetylenic compounds are (3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)trimethylsilane, ((1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyl)oxy)trimethylsilane, bis(3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylsilane, bis(3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)silanemethylvinylsilane, bis((1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyl)oxy)dimethylsilane, methyl(tris(1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyloxy))silane, methyl(tris(3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy))silane, (3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylphenylsilane, (3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylhexenylsilane, (3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)tris((1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyl)oxy)silane) Ethylsilane, bis(3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)methyltrifluoropropylsilane, (3,5-dimethyl-1-hexyn-3-oxy)trimethylsilane, (3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)diphenylmethylsilane, (3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylphenylsilane, (3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylvinylsilane, (3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylhexenylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)dimethylhexenylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)dimethylvinylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)diphenylmethylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)trimethylsilane, and combinations thereof. Alternatively, silylated acetylenic compounds are exemplified by methyl(tris(1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyloxy))silane, ((1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyl)oxy)trimethylsilane, or combinations thereof. Silylated acetylenic compounds useful as inhibitors herein may be prepared by methods known in the art, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,677,740 discloses silylation of the above acetylenic alcohols by reacting the above acetylenic alcohols with chlorosilanes in the presence of an acid acceptor. Alternatively, the hydrosilylation inhibitor may be selected from: acetylenic alcohols, cycloalkenylsiloxanes, enyne compounds, triazoles, phosphines, thiols, hydrazines, amines, fumarates, maleates, nitriles, ethers, carbon monoxide, alcohols, and silylated acetylenic alcohols. Alternatively, the hydrosilylation inhibitor may be an acetylenic alcohol, such as ETCH.
[0074] The amount of inhibitor used herein will depend on various factors, including the desired reaction rate, the specific inhibitor used, and the selection and amount of starting materials (A), (B), and (C). However, when present, the amount of inhibitor may be 0.1 to 4 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of starting materials (A). Alternatively, the amount of inhibitor may be 0.0001 to 1% by weight based on the combined weight of starting materials (A), (B), and (C) in the composition.
[0075] (G) Free radical scavengers
[0076] Starting material (G) is a radical scavenger (scavenger) that can be used to control or suppress the radical reaction of the organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. Because the organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition includes reactive (meth) acrylate groups, there can be effective radical scavengers to prevent premature reactions, such as in storage and during the use of the protective film prepared using the organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. The scavenger comprising phenolic compounds is a class of such substances that can be used in the present invention, and these substances include, for example, 4-methoxyphenol (MEHQ, methyl ether of hydroquinone), hydroquinone, 2-methylhydroquinone, 2-tert-butylhydroquinone, tert-butylcatechol, butylated hydroxytoluene and butylated hydroxyanisole, a combination of two or more of them.

Alternatively, the radical scavenger can be selected from phenolic compounds, phenothiazine and anaerobic inhibitors.
[0077] Free radical scavengers are known, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 9,475,968 and are commercially available. The amount of scavenger in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition will depend on various factors, including the type and amount of (meth)acryloxyalkyl groups in the starting materials (A) and (B), however, the scavenger may be present in an amount of 0.001 to 1 part by weight per 100 parts by weight of the starting materials (A). Alternatively, the amount of the scavenger may be 0.001 to 0.5 parts by weight, alternatively 0.01 to 0.1 parts by weight, based on the combined weight of all starting materials in the composition.

The type of additive is not particularly limited, however, some additives, especially additives containing mercapto groups, phosphine or phosphine oxide groups, can inhibit the hydrosilylation reaction catalyst, therefore, when such additives are included, it is necessary to control the appropriate amount of (D) hydrosilylation reaction catalyst and (I) additive and / or adjust the curing temperature / time.

Examples are pentaerythritol tetrakis (3-mercaptopropionate) (CAS#7575-23-7; Sigma-Aldrich), trimethylolpropane tris (3-mercaptopropionate) (CAS#33007-83-9; Sigma-Aldrich), tris (trimethylsilyl) silane (CAS#1873-77-4, Alfa Aesar), 3-mercaptopropyl (dimethoxy) methyl silane (CAS#31001-77-1; TCI), (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxy silane (CAS#4420-74-0; TCI), mercaptosiloxane (CAS 102783-03-9; Gelest) and 1-hexanethiol (CAS#111-31-9, Sigma-Aldrich). The amount of the chain transfer agent may be 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, alternatively 0.1 to 2.0 parts by weight, per 1 part by weight of the photoinitiator (E).
[0085] Alternatively, the synergist may be a sensitizer, such as those disclosed in PCT Publication WO2015194654A1 and U.S. Patent No. 4,250,053. Available sensitizers include 2-isopropylthioxanthone, 1,3-diphenyl-2-pyrazoline, and 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran.

[0086] (J) Bis-SiH-terminated polydiorganosiloxane
[0087] Optionally, in addition to the starting material (C) in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, a bis-SiH-terminated polydiorganosiloxane may be used. The polydiorganosiloxane may have a unit formula M H 2D k , where M Hand D units are as described above, and the subscript k ≥ 1, alternatively 1 ≤ k ≤ 500. Suitable polydiorganosiloxanes for starting material (J) include dimethylhydrogensiloxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxane and dimethylhydrogensiloxy-terminated polydiphenylsiloxane. When present, the weight ratio of starting material (J) to starting material (C) [(J) / (C) ratio] may be 0.25 / 1 to 4 / 1.
[0088] When selecting starting materials for the above-described silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, there may be overlap between the types of starting materials because some of the starting materials described herein may have more than one function. For example, some reducing agents may also function as hydrosilylation reaction inhibitors (e.g., phosphines such as triphenylphosphine). When additional starting materials are added to the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, the additional starting materials are different from each other and from the desired starting materials in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition.
[0089] Method for preparing silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition
[0090] The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition can be prepared by a method comprising the steps of combining all starting materials by any convenient means, such as mixing at ambient temperature or elevated temperature. For example, when the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is prepared at elevated temperature and / or the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is prepared as a one-part composition, a hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor can be added before the hydrosilylation reaction catalyst.
[0091] Alternatively, the organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition can be prepared as a multi-part composition, for example, when the organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition will be stored for a long period of time before use. In the multi-part composition, the hydrosilylation reaction catalyst is stored in a separate part from any starting material having silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms (e.g., polyorganohydrogensiloxane), and the parts are combined just before the organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is used. For example, a two-part composition can be prepared by combining starting materials in any convenient manner (such as mixing) to form a base part, and these starting materials include starting material (C) polyorganohydrogensiloxane, all or part of starting materials (A) and (B) and optionally all or part of (H) solvent and optionally one or more other additional starting materials mentioned above. The curing agent can be prepared by combining starting materials in any convenient manner (such as mixing), and these starting materials include: starting material (D) hydrosilylation reaction catalyst and all or part of starting materials (A) and (H) and optionally one or more other additional starting materials mentioned above. The starting materials can be mixed at ambient temperature or at elevated temperature. The starting material (F) hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor may be included in one or more of the base part, the curing agent part or a separate additional part. The starting material (B) polyorganosilicate resin may be added to the base part, the curing agent part or a separate additional part. The starting material (E), the photoradical initiator and the starting material (G), the radical scavenger may be added to the base part or a separate additional part. When a two-part composition is used, the weight ratio of the amount of the base part to the amount of the curing agent part may be in the range of 1:1 to 10:1. The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition will be cured via a hydrosilylation reaction to form a pressure-sensitive adhesive.
[0092] Preparation of adhesive products
[0093] The above method may also include one or more additional steps. The organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition prepared as described above can be used to form an adhesive article, for example, a pressure-sensitive adhesive (prepared by thermally curing the above organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition) on the surface of a substrate. Therefore, the above method may also include applying the organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to a substrate.
[0094] The pressure-sensitive adhesive curable composition can be applied to the substrate by any convenient means. For example, the pressure-sensitive adhesive curable composition can be applied to the substrate by a spin coater, a gravure coater, a photographic coater, a photo-gravure coater, a roll coater, a reverse roll coater, an air knife coater, or a curtain coater.
[0095] Substrate can be any material that can withstand the curing conditions (described below) for curing the pressure-sensitive adhesive curable composition to form a pressure-sensitive adhesive on a substrate. For example, any substrate that can withstand the heat treatment of a temperature equal to or greater than 120°C, alternatively 150°C is suitable. Examples of materials suitable for such substrates include plastic films, such as polyimide (PI), polyetheretherketone (PEEK), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), liquid crystal polyarylate, polyamideimide (PAI), polyether sulfide (PES), or polyethylene terephthalate (PET), or PE (polyethylene), or PP (polypropylene). The thickness of the substrate is not critical, however, the thickness can be in the range of 25 microns to 300 microns. The substrate is preferably transparent, and alternatively, a substrate that allows the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive to be exposed to UV radiation can be used.
[0096] In order to improve the bonding of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive to the substrate, the method may also optionally include treating the surface of the substrate before applying the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. Treating the substrate may be performed in any convenient manner, such as applying a primer, or subjecting the substrate to corona discharge treatment, etching or plasma treatment before applying the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to the substrate.
[0097] Adhesive articles (such as protective films) can be prepared by applying the above-mentioned silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to the surface of the above-mentioned substrate. The method may also optionally include removing all or part of the solvent before and / or during curing. Removal of the solvent can be carried out in any convenient manner, such as heating at a temperature that evaporates the solvent without completely curing the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition via a hydrosilylation reaction, for example, heating at a temperature of 70°C to 120°C, alternatively 50°C to 100°C, and alternatively 70°C to 80°C for a time sufficient to remove all or part of the solvent (e.g., 30 seconds to 1 hour, alternatively 1 minute to 5 minutes). Therefore, the method also includes curing the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (which can remove part or all of the solvent when performing the drying step) via a hydrosilylation reaction at room temperature or by heating at a temperature of 60°C to 220°C, alternatively 70°C to 200°C, alternatively 80°C to 180°C, and alternatively 120°C to 160°C for a time sufficient to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive on the surface of the substrate (e.g., 30 seconds to one hour, alternatively 1 minute to 5 minutes). Drying and / or hydrosilylation curing can be performed by placing the substrate in an oven. The amount of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to be applied to the substrate depends on the specific application, however, the amount can be sufficient to make the thickness of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive after curing be 5 microns to 200 microns, and for the protective film, after curing via a hydrosilylation reaction, the thickness can be 10 microns to 50 microns, alternatively 20 microns to 40 microns, and alternatively 30 microns.
[0098] Therefore, a method for forming a protective film including a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on a surface of a substrate comprises:
[0099] 1) optionally treating the surface of the substrate as described above;
[0100] 2) applying the above organosilicon hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to the surface of a substrate, and
[0101] 3) The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is heated to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on the surface of the substrate.
[0102] The above method may also optionally include applying a removable release liner to the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer opposite the substrate, for example, to protect the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive prior to use. The release liner (e.g., protective film) may be removed prior to using the adhesive article.
[0103] The adhesive article (eg, protective film) prepared as described above is suitable for use in a (opto)electronic device (eg, flexible OLED display device) manufacturing process as a protective film.
[0104] A method for producing an (opto)electronic device may comprise:
[0105] 4) applying the protective film prepared as described above to the passivation layer in the device so that the silicone hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive contacts the passivation layer;
[0106] 5) using a protective film to protect the passivation layer in the device (e.g., during processing and / or transportation of the device); and thereafter
[0107] 6) exposing the protective film to UV radiation; thereby reducing the tack of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive. The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive layer of the above cured film obtained contains free (meth)acryloyl groups, which can be analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and their relative amount in the cured film and their reaction when exposed to UV radiation can be monitored by the vibration absorption intensity of unsaturated bonds in the FT-IR spectrum, as shown in the following literature: "UV coatings: basics, recent developments and new applications", page 33 (Elsevier; December 21, 2006), Schwalm; Polymer Chemistry., 2013; Vol. 4, No. 8: pp. 2449-2456, Espeel. At about 1296 cm -1 and 938cm 1 Free (meth)acryloyl groups in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive prepared by using the starting material (A) were detected at . Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that exposure to UV radiation results in the formation of (meth)acryloyloxyalkyl groups R 2 Further reaction and further crosslinking reduce the tack of the silicone hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive, which can allow the protective film to be removed from the passivation layer in the device while minimizing damage to the passivation layer and / or minimizing residual silicone hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive remaining on the passivation layer.
[0108] The step of exposing the protective film to UV radiation can be performed using a general ultraviolet irradiation device, for example, a surface type or conveyor type ultraviolet irradiation device, in which a low-pressure mercury lamp, a medium-pressure mercury lamp, a high-pressure mercury lamp, an ultrahigh-pressure mercury lamp, a xenon lamp, a metal halide lamp, an electrodeless lamp, an ultraviolet light emitting diode, etc. are used as a light source. The ultraviolet irradiation dose is generally 0.1 W / cm 2 Up to 5W / cm 2 Lasts for 5 to 60 seconds (=0.5 J / cm 2 Up to 300J / cm 2 If the adherend, such as an optoelectronic device, is sensitive and can be damaged by the heat or light generated by the UV lamp, an ultraviolet light emitting diode can be used, and the actual dose can be 0.5 J / cm2 To less than 10J / cm 2 Alternatively, exposure to UV radiation may be performed by any convenient means such as those disclosed in US Patent Application Publication No. 2002 / 0071958A1 and Korean Patent No. 101704548B1. Alternatively, the method described below in Reference Example 8 may be used.

[0122] In this Reference Example 7, a methacryloxy and vinyl functional polyorganosilicate resin shown as starting material B-3 in Table 4 was synthesized as follows. The following starting materials were charged into a 3-neck 2L flask of Dean Stark equipped with a thermocouple, a mechanical stirrer, a water-cooled condenser and a N2 bubbler: 742.2 g of a 75% xylene solution of (B-2) dimethylvinylated and trimethylated silica (Mn=4830, Mw=5030), 39.5 g of 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 0.20 g of 4-methoxyphenol and 120 g of toluene. Under vigorous stirring, 1.2 g of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (from Sigma-Aldrich) was slowly added and heated to 60°C. After 1 hour, 9.18 g of water was added and stirred for 2 hours. After 1 hour, the reflux temperature was gradually increased to 90°C to collect methanol. The reflux temperature was gradually increased to 127°C. In the above process, the water / methanol collected in the Dean Stark was discharged. After the anhydrous distillation, the flask contents were refluxed for another 2 hours while maintaining the temperature. Thereafter, the heat source was removed and 22.8 g of calcium carbonate (from Sigma-Aldrich) and 50 g of sodium sulfate (from Sigma-Aldrich) were added to the flask. The flask was cooled to RT. After stirring for 3 hours, the solids were filtered out through a 0.20 μm filter membrane. The resulting methacryloxy and vinyl functional polyorganosilicate resin was a liquid in a solvent (xylene and toluene) (solids content = 68.4%). The methacryloxy and vinyl functional polyorganosilicate resin is represented by the following average formula: (Me3SiO 1 / 2 ) 0.40 (ViMe2SiO 1 / 2 ) 0.039 (MaMeSiO 2 / 2 ) 0.024 (SiO 4 / 2 ) 0.537 (OH) 0.01 , where methacryloyl content = total R 4 1.79 mol %. Vinyl content = 2.86 mol % of total R; methyl content = 95.36 mol % of total R; b = 3.9 mol %, c + e + f = 2.4 mol % [methacryloyl content = 0.332 mmol / g, Vi content = 0.532 mmol / g, total reactive groups = 0.864 mmol / g].
[0123] In this Reference Example 8, a methacryloxy-functional polyorganosilicate resin shown as starting material B-4 in Table 4 was synthesized as follows. In a 500 mL three-necked flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, a thermometer and a Dean Stark trap; a mixture of 375.31 g of a solution containing 75% (B-1) MQ resin (Mn=3065, Mw=5664) dissolved in 25% xylene, 1.5 g of 11N KOH aqueous solution and toluene was refluxed to remove water for 2 hours. 46.47 g of Z-6033 and 0.11 g of (G-1) MEHQ were added to the mixture, and the resulting mixture was refluxed for 5 hours. After cooling to below 50° C., toluene, methanol, water were added and refluxed at 73° C. for 1 hour. Methanol and water were removed with toluene. Toluene corresponding to the toluene lost with methanol and water was added to the mixture. The resulting mixture was refluxed for another 3 hours. After cooling to room temperature, acetic acid was added. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour and then filtered. The resulting methacryloxy-functional polyorganosilicate resin was a liquid (solids content = 75%) in solvent (xylene and toluene). The methacryloxy-functional polyorganosilicate resin was represented by the following average formula: (Me3SiO 1 / 2 ) 0.496 (MaMeSiO 2 / 2 ) 0.039 (SiO 4 / 2 ) 0.465 (OH) 0.45 (OCH3) 0.03 , wherein the methacryloyl content = 2.49 mol % of the total R; ; methyl content = 97.51 mol % of the total R; b = 0 mol %, c+e+f = 3.9 mol % [methacryloyl content = 0.518 mmol / g, total reactive groups = 0.518 mmol / g].
[0124] In this reference example 9, the adhesion (initial adhesion) before UV irradiation is measured as follows. The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition for forming a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer applied to a polyethylene terephthalate (PET, 75 μm) film has a thickness of 50 μm-100 μm after curing. The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet is produced by heating the film for 3 minutes at 150 ° C. The obtained sheet is attached to a removable polyethylene terephthalate film by a laminator, and the resulting laminate is aged for 1 day at RT. The resulting sheet is cut into 2.54 cm (1 inch) wide tape strips, which are placed on a glass plate, and bonded to it by moving a rubber-lined roller with a weight of 2 kg back and forth twice on the strip. The assembly is kept at RT for 1 hour. The adhesive force (g / inch) required for the tape to be peeled off from the glass plate is pulled at a speed of 2,400 mm / min and an angle of 180 °.
[0125] To measure the adhesion after UV irradiation, the assemblies prepared as described above were kept at room temperature for 1 day. Then, the assemblies were irradiated with UV light under the following conditions: 1. TM FJ100) irradiated from the top surface of the substrate film at 1 W / cm 2 UV light under UV illumination. The total dose is 5J / cm 2 of UVA.
[0126] In this Reference Example 10, in order to check the residual adhesion rate in the present invention, the index indicating the migration amount of the migrating component after peeling was studied as follows. As described above in Reference Example 7, an adhesive article was prepared on a PET film. The resulting sheet was placed on a glass plate and bonded to it by moving a 2 kg weight rubber-lined pressure roller back and forth twice on the strip. After keeping the assembly at RT for 1 day, the assembly was irradiated with UV light under the same conditions as described above. Then, the resulting sheet was removed from the glass. In one, TESA TM 7475 (manufactured by TESA) as a reference acrylic tape was placed on the same area of glass adhered to / removed from the resulting sheet of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive layer and bonded thereto by moving a 2 kg-weighted rubber-backed pressure roller back and forth twice over the strip. TM 7475 was bonded to new glass in the same manner. The adhesion (g / inch) required to peel the tape from the steel plate by pulling at a speed of 300 mm / min and an angle of 180°. The degree of migration, called residual adhesion (%), was calculated as follows: Residual adhesion (%) = [Adhesion of test sample, gf / inch] / [Adhesion of standard sample, gf / inch].
[0127] In this reference example 11, a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition and a comparative composition are prepared. The starting materials (A) and (B) are soluble in a solvent. The general procedure is described as follows; for the preparation of Inv.1, a solution is prepared by mixing the following components in a mixer: 133.33 g of 100 g of the starting material (A-1) and 300 ppm (G-1) dissolved in toluene (H-1); 33.28 g of a solution of 24.96 g of the starting material (B-1) dissolved in a solvent; 1.33 g of polyorganohydrogensiloxane (C-1); 5.05 g of a photoradical initiator (E-1); 0.13 g of a hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor (F-1); 50 g of toluene (H-1). After mixing the above components, the obtained solution is further combined with 0.13 g of a hydrosilylation reaction catalyst (D-1). The above components are mixed with the above solution to produce a silicone-based pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. The obtained composition is used to manufacture an adhesive tape. The lamination characteristics and adhesion of the produced adhesive tape were evaluated. Comparative Examples and Inv.2-27 were prepared in the same manner using the starting materials and amounts in the table. Tables 2 and 3 show the starting materials used (described in detail in Table 1) and their amounts [based on solids in grams and (solutions in grams)]. The value (solution in grams) indicates that the starting material is first dissolved in the solvent and represents the weight of the solution in grams.

[0142] Industrial Applicability
[0143] The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition described herein can be cured to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive suitable for a protective film in a manufacturing process of (opto)electronic devices (e.g., flexible OLED display devices or other devices). The above examples show that the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition can be formulated to be cured via hydrosilylation to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive having an initial adhesion of 4 gf / inch to 385 gf / inch on glass (before UV irradiation), as tested by the method of Reference Example 7 described herein. Compared to the initial adhesion, after UV irradiation, the adhesion is reduced by at least 40%, alternatively at least 50%, alternatively 44% to 88%.
[0144] Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the adhesion properties on glass will provide comparable results on substrates (such as passivation layers) used in (optical) electronic device manufacturing processes, and it is expected that the combination of the above characteristics allows the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive film to be used as a protective film on these substrates during the manufacture of (optical) electronic devices. The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition can be heated to cure via a hydrosilylation reaction to produce a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive on a substrate (such as PET) to form a protective film. The resulting protective film can be used to protect the layer in the device during processing. Thereafter, the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive can be irradiated with UV radiation, which results in a reduction in adhesion. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the reduction in adhesion can allow the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive to be detached from the passivation layer when the passivation layer in the device is minimally damaged and / or minimal residue is left on the passivation layer in the device. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that a SiH / reactive group ratio of <2 contributes to the beneficial effect of modifying adhesion by ensuring that sufficient reactive groups are present after hydrosilylation cure to allow further reaction when the silicone hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive is irradiated with UV radiation.
[0145] For example, Comp.9-12 in Table 1 above show that when the SiH / reactive group ratio is higher than 2, the adhesion after UV irradiation is not greatly reduced. Using different amounts of the same starting material so that the SiH / reactive group ratio is 0.46 to 1.12, Inv.1 to Inv.4 and Inv.7 to Inv.9 in Table 2 show that silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives having an adhesion of 4.6 gf / inch to 11.2 gf / inch before irradiation (protective films suitable for passivation layers in OLED display devices) and an adhesion of 2.3 gf / inch to 4.4 gf / inch after UV irradiation can be prepared. Inv.5 and Inv.10 in Table 2 also show that when the SiH / reactive group ratio is less than 2, the adhesion after UV irradiation is effectively reduced by -52% to -83% at a relatively high resin / polymer (R / P) ratio of 0.99 to 1.94. This parameter can also be confirmed by using different types of polyorganosilicate (B-3) and polyorganohydrogensiloxane (C-3) through Inv. 11 to Inv. 18.
[0146] Furthermore, without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that in the unit formula of the polydiorganosiloxane (A), an m / n ratio of <500 / 1 contributes to the beneficial effect of modifying the adhesion by ensuring sufficient reactive groups to allow further sufficient reaction by UV irradiation. For example, Comp.13 shows that when the m / n ratio is 527 (>500 / 1), the adhesion after UV irradiation is not greatly reduced. Using different polydiorganosiloxanes, such that the m / n ratio is 20 / 1 to 260 / 1, Inv.8 (A-1, m / n=37 / 1), Inv.21 (A-2, 56 / 1), Inv.22 (A-3, 260 / 1), Inv.23 (A-4, 20 / 1) show that after UV irradiation, the adhesion is reduced by (at least) more than 40%. Inv.8, Inv.21 and Inv.23 show that when the m / n ratio is <100 / 1, the adhesion after UV irradiation is reduced by more than 50%. Thus, a lower m / n ratio helps to modify the adhesion benefits by ensuring that sufficient reactive groups are present after hydrosilylation cure to allow further reaction when the silicone hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive is irradiated with UV radiation.
[0147] Do not wish to be bound by theory, think that conventional organosilicon pressure sensitive adhesive may suffer from a shortcoming in the following shortcomings.If the adhesion of organosilicon pressure sensitive adhesive is too low, then protective film can easily delaminate or not adhere to passivation layer during the manufacture of (optical) electronic device, therefore provide insufficient protection.But if the adhesion of organosilicon pressure sensitive adhesive to passivation layer is too high, then passivation layer may not be easy to peel off, and may be impaired when protective film is removed.For industrial use, depending on the surface characteristics of adherend, in narrow range (for example, 3gf / inch, 4gf / inch, 5gf / inch, 6gf / inch, 7gf / inch, 8gf / inch, 9gf / inch, 10gf / inch, 11gf / inch, 12gf / inch) each different adhesion level at place should be controlled by some compositions specifically, to meet the requirement of being easy to attach and peel off.Therefore, organosilicon hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive as herein described can provide a kind of integrated solution to meet the requirement of the overall type of the surface characteristics of (optical) electronic device.
[0148] In addition, the residual migration of silicone based pressure-sensitive adhesives at the surface of adherends has become an unsolvable problem in the industrial field, which leads to the pollution of (optical) electronic devices. For example, Comp.1 to Comp.6 are conventional pressure-sensitive adhesives, which show 47% to 72%, mainly less than 70% residual adhesion rate (%), while Inv.1 to Inv.23 show 72% to> 99.9% residual adhesion rate (%). Among them, Inv.23 shows that under the lowest m / n ratio (20 / 1 of (A-4)), the highest residual adhesion rate (%) is> 99.9%, which shows that it may be related to the minimum migration of residual silicone caused by sufficient further reaction after UV irradiation. In addition, it is believed that the addition of additive (I) helps to improve the beneficial effect of residual silicone migration by allowing sufficient and effective further reaction through UV irradiation. For example, using the same starting materials with similar SiH / reactive group ratios, Inv.21 and Inv.24 showed that Inv.24 with the addition of additive (I-1) showed a residual adhesion rate (%) = 92% higher than 73% of Inv.21. When compared to Inv.7 to Inv.8 (97%-98%), Inv.26 to Inv.27 with the addition of additive (I-2) also showed improved residual adhesion rates (%) = > 99.9%.
[0149] Comp.14 and Comp.15 show that under the conditions tested herein, the (meth)acryloyl-functional polyorganosilicate (B-4) without vinyl groups is not as effective as the (meth)acryloyl-functional polyorganosilicate that additionally has vinyl groups in reducing adhesion after UV irradiation. Under the conditions tested herein, the performance of the (meth)acryloyl-functional polyorganosilicate (B-4) is different from that of the polyorganosilicate (B-3) that is both (meth)acryloyl- and vinyl-functional, as shown in Inv.11 to Inv.19. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it may be because the methacryloyl-functional polyorganosilicate (B-3) containing vinyl groups effectively participates in the hydrosilylation reaction promoted by the hydrosilylation catalyst, and therefore, it is uniformly incorporated into the curing matrix with the starting material (A) through the crosslinker (starting material (C)). In contrast, since the (meth)acryloyl group is less reactive than the vinyl group during the hydrosilylation reaction, the (meth)acryloyl-functional polyorganosilicate may not be well incorporated into the cured matrix. In this case, intermolecular reactions between the microphase-separated methacryloyl-functional polyorganosilicates may occur by UV irradiation, rather than reactions with the methacryloyl groups of the starting material A. Therefore, the adhesion reduction characteristics between the starting materials (B-3) and (B-4) are different.
[0150] Problems to be solved
[0151] Organic-based pressure-sensitive adhesives comprising polymers having hydrocarbon backbone polymer chains may have poor wettability to substrates used during the manufacture of (opto)electronic devices. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the rigidity of the hydrocarbon backbone contributes to this poor wettability, which may lead to difficulty in lamination and / or the formation of bubbles on the substrate. If pressure or heat is applied, this may cause damage to delicate surfaces such as passivation layers in (opto)electronic devices.
[0152] In the past, adhesives comprising physical mixtures of polyorganosiloxanes and UV-reactive organic molecules have been proposed. However, due to the poor compatibility of polyorganosiloxanes and organic molecules, it is difficult to obtain a uniform pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, which may have the disadvantage of forming a turbid or opaque pressure-sensitive adhesive. Such compositions are not suitable for (opto)electronic device manufacturing processes.
[0153] The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems because it can be cured to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive having suitable adhesion and wetting ability to surfaces such as passivation layers in (opto)electronic devices without trapping bubbles or requiring pressure or harsh conditions for adhesion that may damage the passivation layer. However, the silicone hybrid PSA may also have the ability to release from such surfaces with minimal damage and / or minimal residue after UV irradiation.
