Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a dual-curing adhesive composition that can effectively prevent the bleeding phenomenon of an adhesive and can achieve excellent adhesive force and reliability after curing. Background Art
[0002] A dual-cure adhesive of the type that performs main curing by heat after pre-curing by light irradiation is proposed for an adhesive used for assembling a camera module in order to minimize thermal damage to an image sensor or the like caused by high-temperature processing and satisfy adhesion, reliability, and production efficiency.
[0003] Furthermore, as camera modules have been recently miniaturized and thinned, components of the camera modules have also become finer, and thus the performance required of an adhesive for bonding and fixing the components has gradually become more complex.
[0004] Specifically, as the bonding area decreases, the bonding site of the adhesive is easily peeled off or damaged, and thus the adhesive is required to have an improved bonding strength per unit area and improved durability.
[0005] In addition, the material of the base material used in the camera module is mainly used after plasma treatment for adhesion improvement and cleaning. After the plasma treatment, the interface of the material shows hydrophilicity, and when a relatively high polarity adhesive is used, resin bleed out (RBO) occurs, in which the adhesive easily flows out. The resin that flows out in this way has the problem of weakening the adhesion or increasing the risk of corrosion of surrounding parts, resulting in reduced reliability, so it is necessary to be able to effectively prevent the resin bleed out phenomenon.
[0006] However, when an additive for reducing surface energy is used to prevent the resin bleeding phenomenon, there are still problems such as decreased adhesion, decreased reliability, or difficulty in adjusting viscosity.
[0007] Furthermore, there is therefore a need for an adhesive that can achieve excellent adhesion while effectively preventing the resin bleed-out phenomenon. Summary of the invention

[0082] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the dual-curing adhesive composition may be a one-component type or a two-component type, and may be usefully applicable as a structural adhesive. In addition, the adhesive composition may be a dual-curing adhesive composition. Specifically, the adhesive composition may form a first polymer network derived from a photopolymerizable multifunctional monomer by thermal curing and photocuring reactions, and form a second polymer network derived from a curing agent and an epoxy resin. The first polymer network and the second polymer network may densely form an interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) that is physically mixed and interpenetrated, thereby imparting high bonding strength and excellent reliability. Thus, the adhesive composition may not only be implemented by selecting photocuring, thermal curing or making it parallel dual curing according to the use environment or purpose, but may also effectively prevent resin exudation with the inclusion of the above-mentioned multifunctional compound, and may also simultaneously achieve excellent reliability under the conditions of bonding strength improved by dual curing and high temperature, humidity or thermal shock.
[0083] Although the adhesive composition according to one aspect has low viscosity before the curing reaction, after the primary curing reaction of the photocuring reaction, the viscosity increases sharply by forming the first polymer network. Thus, an adherend such as a camera module can be reliably supported on the substrate, and as the IPN is formed by the subsequent thermal curing reaction, the adherend can be firmly bonded and fixed on the substrate and can have excellent durability and reliability.
[0084] The photocuring can be performed under normal photocuring conditions and can be performed by irradiating a light source such as infrared rays, visible light, ultraviolet rays, electron rays, etc. having a wavelength of 800 nm or more, and the light source can be 100 to 3000 mW / cm 2 , 300 to 3000mW / cm 2 or 500 to 2000 mW / cm 2 The range is 1 to 20 seconds or 1 to 10 seconds. In addition, the light source irradiation means can include low-pressure mercury lamp, medium-pressure mercury lamp, high-pressure mercury lamp, ultra-high-pressure mercury lamp, excimer laser, chemical lamp, black light lamp, microwave excitation mercury lamp, metal halide lamp, sodium lamp, fluorescent lamp, LED SPOT type UV irradiator, xenon lamp, 365nm wavelength ultraviolet lamp or deep ultraviolet lamp, but are not limited thereto.
[0085] The thermal curing may be performed under conventional epoxy thermal curing conditions, and as an example, may be performed at a temperature of less than 150°C, less than 100°C, less than 90°C, or between 50 and 90°C for less than 6 hours, between 10 minutes and 5 hours, or between 30 minutes and 2 hours.
[0086] The present invention can provide a cured product prepared from the above-mentioned dual-curing adhesive composition. The cured product has a very outstanding RBO prevention effect, and at the same time has excellent adhesion after curing, and can also achieve excellent reliability at the same time under conditions of high temperature, high humidity or thermal shock. In this regard, the cured product according to one aspect can be usefully used as an adhesive, a sealant, a coating agent, etc. For example, it can be usefully applied as an adhesive layer between components such as camera modules that require high bonding strength and impact resistance per unit area, and it can also be used as a structural adhesive in the assembly of not only structures such as civil engineering and construction, but also in transportation means such as automobiles, airplanes, and ships. This can be used in many ways across industries by realizing excellent bonding properties between the same or different materials such as metal and metal, metal and glass, and metal and carbon fiber.
[0087] In addition, one aspect of the present invention provides a structure including the cured product. Specifically, the structure according to one aspect may include a first adherend, a second adherend, and an adhesive layer disposed between the first adherend and the second adherend, and the adhesive layer may be the cured product.
[0088] As an example, the first adherend and the second adherend may be parts of aluminum, brass or polycarbonate, etc. Specifically, the first adherend and the second adherend may be selected from lenses, lens holders and housings, etc., and part or the whole of them may be bonded with high bonding strength through the above-mentioned bonding layer to form a high-quality structure.
[0089] Specifically, the structure according to one aspect may be a camera module.
[0090] As an example, the structure may be a camera module mounted on a mobile device such as a smartphone, or a camera module for a vehicle.

[0103] [Evaluation Example 1] Evaluation of bleeding phenomenon (RBO)
[0104] After plasma treatment of a substrate made of polyimide (200W, N2, 5min), the dual-curing adhesive composition prepared in the embodiment and the comparative example was horizontally coated with a radius of 0.5mm, and after being placed at 25°C for 1 hour, it was moved to a hot plate set at 80°C and cured for 150 seconds. Figure 1 The difference between the radius (R0) of the first applied adhesive and the radius (R1) of the adhesive flowing out after final curing was calculated and the RBO value (R1-R0) was recorded in Table 2 below.
[0105] [Evaluation Example 2] Storage stability evaluation
[0106] The dual-cure adhesive compositions of the examples and comparative examples were stored in a plastic sealed container at 25° C. for 72 hours, and the viscosities before and after storage were measured. The storage stability was evaluated based on the following criteria, and the results are recorded in the following Table 2. At this time, the viscosity was measured using a Brookfield corn plate viscosity analyzer under the measurement conditions of 25° C., spindle 51z, and Rpm 5.0.
[0107] X: Increased by more than 20% compared to the initial viscosity
[0108] O: Less than 20% increase compared to initial viscosity
[0109] [Evaluation Example 3] Adhesion Evaluation
[0110] As in Figure 2 As observed in the embodiment, the dual-curing adhesive composition (discharge: 50 mg) prepared in the embodiment and the comparative example is distributed in a form of an inner diameter of 13.5 mm and an outer diameter of 15.5 mm under the conditions of nozzle spacing: 1.0 mm (19G) and speed 6.0 mm / sec at the aluminum first adherend (Holder) interface. Subsequently, the unit is prepared by bonding with the aluminum second adherend (Lens). At this time, the spacing between the first adherend and the second adherend is called 0.3 mm. The prepared unit uses four light sources for the first curing (1000 mW / cm2) while keeping the distance between the ultraviolet light of LED 365 nm and the adhesive composition and the light source at 25 mm in the horizontal direction of the unit. 2 , 7s), and then heated in a convection oven at 80°C for 1 hour and subjected to a second curing.
[0111] Subsequently, the adhesive force of the cured unit was measured using UTM (AMETEK LD50), and the tensile speed was set to 30 mm / min. The results are shown in Table 2 below.
[0112] [Evaluation Example 4] Reliability Evaluation
[0113] The same unit as in the adhesion evaluation was exposed for 500 hours in an environment maintained at 85°C, 85%RH using a temperature / humidity resister, and the adhesion was measured. The reliability for temperature / humidity resistance was evaluated according to the following criteria, and the results are recorded in Table 2 below.
[0114] In addition, the cured unit was placed at -40°C for 30 minutes and at 85°C for 30 minutes as one cycle, and the adhesive strength was measured after repeating 500 cycles. The reliability against thermal shock was evaluated according to the following criteria, and the results are recorded in the following Table 2.
[0115] X: Adhesion strength is reduced by 20% or more compared to the unit before reliability evaluation
[0116] O: Adhesion strength decreased by less than 20% compared to the unit before reliability evaluation
[0117] The physical properties of the dual-cure adhesive compositions prepared in Examples 1 to 11 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were evaluated and shown in Table 2 below.
[0118]
Table 2
[0119]
[0120] As shown in Table 2, it was confirmed that the dual-cure adhesive composition according to the embodiment of the present invention exhibited a very excellent RBO prevention effect while maintaining both excellent adhesion and reliability. On the contrary, in the case of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 not including the multifunctional compound according to one aspect, it was confirmed that the RBO prevention effect and stability were very poor.
[0121] In addition, the best RBO prevention effect, adhesiveness and reliability were confirmed in the case of Example 9. Thus, in the case of containing a partially hydrophobized multifunctional acrylate monomer (especially a multifunctional acrylate monomer whose terminal is hydrophobized with an alkyl group having 10 to 15 carbon atoms), it was confirmed that a more significant RBO prevention effect and excellent adhesiveness were simultaneously exhibited.
[0122] The effect of the present invention is analyzed. By using a dual-curing adhesive composition containing a multifunctional compound in which an alkyl group as a hydrophobic group is introduced into a hydrophilic substrate by plasma treatment, the hydrophilic functional group is converted into partial hydrophobicity, thereby reducing the affinity between the interface and the adhesive, thereby partially blocking the resin exudation, and through the embodiment, the degree of hydrophobization according to the carbon number of the alkyl group and the RBO prevention effect according to this are experimented. It is analyzed that when the carbon number is large, the bonding area between the interface of the alkyl group and the substrate increases, thereby relatively suppressing the resin exudation, but in the case where the carbon number is too large, the bonding force of the adhesive composition is reduced due to the steric hindrance of the alkyl group.
[0123] In other words, the dual-curing adhesive composition according to one aspect can have an excellent RBO prevention effect and can achieve a further improved adhesive force through dual curing. By achieving the above-mentioned physical properties, it is expected that it can be usefully applied as an adhesive layer between components such as camera modules that require high adhesive strength and water resistance per unit area and are miniaturized and thinned.
