Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an integrated encapsulating sheet, a light-emitting electronic component, and a method for manufacturing the same. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, displays using extremely small light-emitting diodes known as mini-LEDs or micro-LEDs have been attracting attention. There are two main methods known for using such extremely small light-emitting diodes in displays. One is to arrange a large number of light-emitting diodes on a substrate to form a backlight for an LCD and locally control the brightness of the backlight. The other is to have light-emitting diodes of each color (red, green, and blue) emit light and send that color light to the viewer's eyes on a pixel-by-pixel basis.

[0003] Light-emitting diodes such as mini-LEDs or micro-LEDs are generally arranged on a substrate. When multiple light-emitting diodes (referred to as light-emitting elements) are arranged on a substrate, it is necessary to provide light shielding between adjacent light-emitting elements. As a method for providing light shielding between multiple light-emitting elements using a resin with a light-shielding function, for example, a method using a dry film is known (see Patent Document 1). A dry film is a film obtained by applying a light-shielding resin composition to a protective film and drying it.

[0004] When a dry film is pressed onto a substrate over multiple light-emitting elements, a light-shielding resin layer is formed not only in the gaps between the light-emitting elements but also on the upper surfaces (light-emitting surfaces) of the light-emitting elements. Under such circumstances, the resin layer may block light from reaching the viewer of the display. To prevent this, the above-mentioned conventional technology employs a method in which the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting element is etched using a plasma treatment or other etching method to remove the resin layer on the light-emitting surface, and then the removed surface is covered with a light-transmitting sealant. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2022-22562 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] However, the above-mentioned conventional techniques require a long time for the etching process, which increases manufacturing costs. Furthermore, it is difficult to completely remove the resin layer on the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting element, making it difficult to completely prevent the diffusion of light that should reach the viewer side of the display. Furthermore, the etching process requires a step of laminating a highly transparent sealing film, which increases the number of manufacturing processes.

[0007] In view of the above problems, prior to the present invention, the present inventors developed an integrated encapsulating sheet in which one or more curable resin layers are formed on one surface of a film substrate. The inventors discovered that by press-bonding the integrated encapsulating sheet to a light-emitting element so that the curable resin layer side faces the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting element and curing the curable resin layer, it is possible to reduce light diffusion between light-emitting elements and realize a structure that does not block light emitted from the light-emitting element.

[0008] The above-described one-piece encapsulating sheet developed prior to the present invention also has further improvements. The integrated encapsulating sheet has a black curable resin layer in which a black pigment or the like is mixed with a curable resin. However, the black curable resin layer flows during thermocompression bonding, causing a change in film thickness, which can lead to uneven black color and a decrease in uniformity in appearance. Furthermore, if the black curable resin layer remains on the light-emitting element during the manufacturing process of the light-emitting electronic component, uneven emission color due to changes in brightness is likely to occur.

[0009] Therefore, the present invention aims to provide an integrated encapsulating sheet that has little black color unevenness, improves the uniformity of appearance, and is less likely to cause color unevenness in emitted light even if a black resin layer remains on a light-emitting element, a light-emitting electronic component using said sheet, and a method for manufacturing the same.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the embodiments described below do not limit the invention according to the claims, and not all of the elements and combinations thereof described in the embodiments are necessarily essential to the solution of the present invention. In this application, "main component" means a component that accounts for 50% by mass or more of the total solid content of the entire composition.

Fig. 2 shows a cross-sectional view, as seen from Fig. 1, of the integrated encapsulating sheet of Fig. 1 when the black curable resin layer is placed in contact with the top surface of the light-emitting element of the element-mounted substrate.

Fig. 4 shows a cross-sectional view, as seen from Fig. 1, of a state in which the protective sheet on the base material layer has been peeled off and a curing treatment has been performed, proceeding further from the stage of Fig. 3.

[0015] 1. Integrated encapsulating sheet The integrated encapsulating sheet 1 according to the present embodiment is an integrated encapsulating sheet 1 to be pressure-bonded to a surface of an element-mounted substrate 2 on which a plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23 are arranged, the surface having the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23 arranged on a substrate 20, and includes at least a black curable resin layer 10 capable of blocking light emitted from the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23, a transparent curable resin layer 11 having higher light transmittance than the black curable resin layer 10, and a base layer 12. The transparent curable resin layer 11 is arranged between the black curable resin layer 10 and the base layer 12.

[0016] The integrated encapsulating sheet 1 is in a state prior to a curing process of an integrated encapsulating cured sheet 3 provided in a light-emitting electronic component 5, which will be described later. The integrated encapsulating sheet 1 is a laminate in which at least a black curable resin layer 10, a transparent curable resin layer 11, and a base material layer 12 are laminated in this order. The integrated encapsulating sheet 1 is used so that the surface of the black curable resin layer 10 is pressure-bonded to a plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 during a pressure-bonding process, which will be described later. The black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 are in an uncured state until a curing process, which will be described later, is performed. That is, the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 are cured in the curing process to become a black resin layer 30 and a transparent resin layer 31, respectively.

[0017] In the present application, the term "light transmittance" refers to light transmittance measured by various known methods, and may be, for example, total light transmittance measured using a haze meter in accordance with JIS K 7361-1.

[0018] For ease of handling, the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 may further include a protective sheet on the outer surface of either or both of the black curable resin layer 10 and the substrate layer 12. FIG. 1 shows an example of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 in which protective sheets 13, 14 are provided on the outer surfaces of both the black curable resin layer 10 and the substrate layer 12. More specifically, the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 has a structure in which the protective sheet 14, the substrate layer 12, the transparent curable resin layer 11, the black curable resin layer 10, and the protective sheet 13 are laminated in this order. Each layer constituting the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 will be described below.

[0019] (1) Black curable resin layer The black curable resin layer 10 is a layer for blocking light between the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. It also serves to improve the contrast of the display. The black curable resin layer 10 also serves to sufficiently fill the spaces between the multiple light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 arranged on the element-mounted substrate 2 in a compression bonding process such as thermocompression bonding, thereby preventing poor appearance due to expansion of unfilled gaps in a curing process such as thermosetting, and damage to the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 due to external factors in subsequent processes.

[0020] [Filler] The black curable resin layer 10 contains a filler (not shown) in a curable resin composition described below. In this specification, "filler" refers to a transparent or non-black colored pigment, excluding black pigments. The filler is not particularly limited as long as it is a material other than a black pigment, and suitable fillers from known inorganic fillers and / or organic fillers can be used as appropriate. A transparent filler is preferred because it does not block light emission even when the black curable resin layer 10 remains on the top surface of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, preventing a decrease in brightness. The filler material is preferably at least one of silica, acrylic resin, polyurethane resin, and / or silicone resin. Using these materials as fillers can improve the light diffusion properties of the black curable resin layer 10, promote light absorption in the layer 10, and increase the blackness.

[0021] The black curable resin layer 10 contains a filler, which can diffuse external light incident on the substrate 20 from the outside. The black resin layer 30 (black curable resin layer 10 after curing), which will be described later, diffuses and absorbs incident light internally, thereby suppressing reflection toward the viewer of the display. This increases the degree of blackness when viewed from the outside when the display is turned off. Furthermore, the amount of black pigment contained in the black curable resin layer 10 can be reduced, and even if the black curable resin layer 10 remains on the top surfaces of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 in the filling step, which will be described later, a decrease in brightness can be prevented, and color unevenness during light emission can be reduced.

[0022] Furthermore, the cohesive force of the filler acts to suppress displacement of the black cured resin layer 10 between the light-emitting elements, which is subject to less stress for flowing, compared to the top surfaces of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, which is subject to greater stress for flowing. This makes it difficult for the film thickness of the black cured resin layer 10 to change, and black color unevenness when the light is off is not visible.

[0023] The shape of the filler is not particularly limited, and fillers of any shape can be used. The shape of the filler may be, for example, irregular particulate, spherical, fibrous, or needle-like, and from the viewpoint of ensuring the fluidity of the black curable resin layer 10, a spherical shape is particularly preferred.

[0024] When silica is used as the filler, the type of silica is not particularly limited, and various known silicas can be used. Examples include amorphous silica and crystalline silica, with spherical silica being particularly preferred. The filler surface may also be surface-treated with a known surface treatment agent, such as a silane coupling agent having a methacrylic group, a vinyl group, an amino group, an epoxy group, a mercapto group, or the like. This improves the dispersibility of the filler in the curable resin composition, allowing for more effective control of the total light transmittance and diffusivity.

[0025] In this application, "acrylic resin" refers to a resin having an acrylic skeleton and / or a methacrylic skeleton. Various known acrylic resins can be used as the acrylic resin for the filler, including polymers of acrylic monomers such as acrylic acid esters or methacrylic acid esters, and copolymers of acrylic monomers with other monomers. A specific example of such a polymer is polymethyl methacrylate resin (PMMA resin). A combination of multiple types of these acrylic resins may also be used.

[0026] In this application, "polyurethane resin" refers to a resin having a urethane bond in the molecule. Examples of polyurethane resins used in the filler include polyether-type polyurethane resins containing ether bonds in the main chain in addition to urethane bonds, polyester-type polyurethane resins containing ester bonds in the main chain, and polycarbonate-type polyurethane resins containing carbonate bonds in the main chain. A combination of two or more of these polyurethane resins may be used.

[0027] When a silicone resin is used as the filler, any of various known silicone materials having a siloxane bond in the main chain, excluding silicone oil, can be used.

[0028] The average particle diameter of the filler in the black curable resin layer 10 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 10 μm or less, more preferably 0.1 to 10 μm, even more preferably 0.5 to 5 μm, and even more preferably 1.0 to 4 μm. When the average particle diameter of the filler is within the above numerical range, it is easy to ensure appropriate dispersibility of the filler. Furthermore, it is possible to impart appropriate diffusibility to the black curable oil layer 10, which promotes absorption of external light and, as a result, makes it easy to increase the blackness of the display when it is turned off. Note that, in this specification, the average particle diameter of the filler is the cumulative average diameter D in the volume-based particle size distribution determined by a laser diffraction / scattering method. 50 The measurement device used in the laser diffraction / scattering method is the MT3300EXII manufactured by Microtrack Bell.

[0029] When the average particle diameter of the filler is equal to or greater than the lower limit, light diffusion is easily ensured. When the average particle diameter of the filler is equal to or less than the upper limit, a decrease in blackness due to diffuse reflection of light can be prevented. In addition, since coarse particles are less likely to be mixed in, a decrease in blackness in only the area where the coarse particles are present can be prevented. Furthermore, it is possible to prevent local stress caused by the mixing in of coarse particles, which makes it difficult to remove the black curable resin layer 10 from the top surface of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. As a result, black color unevenness is less likely to occur.

[0030] If the average particle diameter of the filler is within the range of 0.5 to 5 μm, the thickness of the remaining black curable resin layer 10 will be close to the average particle diameter of the filler when the black curable resin layer 10 remains on the top surfaces of the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. This reduces the light diffusion property and reduces the light absorption of the remaining black curable resin layer 10, making it less likely that uneven color emission will occur even if the black curable resin layer 10 remains on the light emitting elements.

[0031] The content of the filler in the black curable resin layer 10 is not particularly limited as long as it does not prevent light from reaching the viewer side, but is preferably 100 parts by mass or less, more preferably 1 to 50 parts by mass, even more preferably 2.5 to 40 parts by mass, and particularly preferably 5 to 30 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total resin solid content of the black curable resin layer 10. Within the above numerical range, it is easy to ensure appropriate dispersibility of the filler.

[0032] If the content of the filler in the black curable resin layer 10 is equal to or less than the upper limit, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the degree of blackness due to diffuse reflection of light.

[0033] When the content of the filler in the black curable resin layer 10 is equal to or greater than the above lower limit, the black curable oil layer 10 can be given appropriate diffusibility, which promotes absorption of external light and, as a result, makes it easier to increase the blackness of the display when it is turned off.

[0034] If the filler content in the black curable resin layer 10 is 5 to 30 parts by mass, it is easy to achieve both a high level of blackness of the display when the light is off and a high level of brightness when the black curable resin layer 10 remains on the top surfaces of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23.

[0035] [L*a*b* value] The L*a*b* values of the black curable resin layer 10 in a cured state, as measured in accordance with JIS Z 8781-4 using a D65 light source, a 2° field of view, a reflection method, and the SCE method, are preferably L*: 0 to 30, a*: -10 to 10, and b*: -20 to 20, and more preferably L*: 1.5 to 30, a*: -5 to 5, and b*: -15 to 15. The L*a*b* values are measured using a standard white calibration plate. Because the light transmittance of the black curable resin layer 10 is low, the influence of the standard white calibration plate is minimal. By ensuring that the L*a*b* values in the cured state are within the preferred range, the black curable resin layer 10 can, after curing, shield light from the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, thereby further improving the contrast of the display. The same indices apply to the uncured black curable resin layer 10.

[0036] [Total light transmittance] In the present application, the total light transmittance of the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 described below in their cured states is calculated as follows. When calculating the total light transmittance of the black curable resin layer 10 in its cured state, first, the total light transmittance of the protective sheet 13 described below alone is measured using a haze meter (e.g., NDH5000 manufactured by Nippon Denshoku Industries Co., Ltd.) in accordance with JIS K 7361-1. Next, a laminate sheet is prepared in which the cured black curable resin layer 10 (i.e., the black resin layer 30) is laminated on the protective sheet 13, and the total light transmittance is measured in the same manner. From the obtained measured values, a value excluding the influence of the protective sheet 13 is calculated, and this value is the total light transmittance of the black curable resin layer 10 in its cured state. When calculating the total light transmittance of the transparent curable resin layer 11 in its cured state, the black curable resin layer 10 is replaced with the transparent curable resin layer 11, and the protective sheet 13 is replaced with the base layer 12 described below, and the calculation is otherwise performed in the same manner as above.

[0037] The total light transmittance of the black curable resin layer 10 in its cured state is lower than the total light transmittance of the transparent curable resin layer 11 (described later) in its cured state. Specifically, the total light transmittance of the black curable resin layer 10 in its cured state is adjusted to be 0 to 30%. The total light transmittance of the black curable resin layer 10 in its cured state is adjusted to be preferably 0.01 to 20%, more preferably 0.02 to 10%. When the total light transmittance is equal to or less than an upper limit value such as 50%, 40%, or 30%, the black curable resin layer 10 can achieve light shielding between the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 after curing. The total light transmittance in the cured state can be changed mainly by whether or not carbon black is blended, and the blending amount of carbon black. The total light transmittance in the cured state can also be changed by the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 and the type of resin composition.

[0038] [Haze value] In the present application, the haze value of the black curable resin layer 10 in a cured state can be measured and calculated in accordance with JIS K 7136 using a haze meter or the like, in the same manner as the total light transmittance described above. The haze value is preferably adjusted to 70% or more, more preferably 80% or more, even more preferably 90 to 99.95%, and particularly preferably 95 to 99.9%. If the haze value is equal to or greater than the lower limit, the blackness of the black curable resin layer 10 can be increased. If the haze value is equal to or less than the upper limit, it becomes easier to achieve compatibility with the luminance transmittance described below.

[0039] [Storage modulus] In the present application, the storage modulus can be measured, for example, by a method in accordance with JIS K 7244. The storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 in an uncured state is preferably smaller than the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 in an uncured state. The storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 in an uncured state at 100°C is preferably 1.0 × 10 5 Pa or less, and more preferably 1.0×10 1 ~1.0×10 5Pa, and even more preferably 1.0×10 2 ~5.0×10 4 Pa. When the storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 at 100°C in an uncured state is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, the black curable resin layer 10 exhibits sufficient fluidity when pressure-bonded to the element-mounted substrate 2, and can conform to the unevenness of the element-mounted substrate 2 formed by the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, thereby sufficiently filling the spaces between the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. When the storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 at 100°C in an uncured state is equal to or greater than the preferred lower limit, it is possible to prevent uneven pressure during thermocompression bonding of the black curable resin layer 10, and to maintain a uniform appearance. It is also possible to prevent the resin from leaking outside a predetermined range, ensuring a film thickness after pressure bonding.

[0040] The storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 at 60°C after heat treatment at 120°C for 1 hour is preferably 7×10 8 ~2×10 10 Pa. When the storage modulus is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, it is possible to prevent cracks from occurring in the cured black curable resin layer 10 when cutting the edge of the substrate 20. When the storage modulus is equal to or more than the preferred lower limit, it is possible to prevent the cured black curable resin layer 10 from deforming and expanding and contracting when cutting the edge of the substrate 20, and to prevent the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 on the edge side of the substrate 20 from becoming wavy.

[0041] The storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 in an uncured state at 150° C. is preferably 5.0×10 5 Pa or less, and more preferably 5.0 × 10 2 ~5.0×10 5 Pa, and even more preferably 1.0×10 3 ~1.0×10 5Pa. When the storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 at 150°C in an uncured state is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, cracks due to cure shrinkage are less likely to occur during thermal curing. When the storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 at 150°C is equal to or greater than the preferred lower limit, flow during thermal curing can be suppressed, and poor appearance after curing, such as repellency, can be suppressed.

[0042] [Curable resin composition] The black curable resin layer 10 includes a curable resin composition. An example of the curable resin composition is a curable resin composition containing at least one resin selected from epoxy resin, acrylic resin, polyester resin, polyurethane resin, and silicone resin, and a curing agent. Among the above curable resin compositions, an epoxy resin composition that can be cured at low temperatures and has excellent heat resistance and reliability is preferred. In this specification, an epoxy resin composition refers to a composition containing an epoxy resin as a main component, or a composition containing an epoxy resin and a curing agent as main components. Furthermore, the curable resin composition of the black curable resin layer 10 contains the above-mentioned filler added thereto.

[0043] When the black curable resin layer 10 is composed of an epoxy resin composition, it may contain a curing agent for epoxy resins other than the modified elastomer having a functional group reactive with an epoxy group. Examples of other curing agents include known curing agents such as phenol-based curing agents, acid anhydride-based curing agents, and amine-based curing agents. Two or more of the other curing agents may be used in combination.

[0044] (epoxy resin) In this application, an epoxy resin is a compound having an epoxy group in the molecule. The epoxy resin used in the present invention is preferably one having two or more epoxy groups in one molecule. This is because a crosslinked structure is formed by reaction with a modified resin having a functional group reactive with the epoxy group, and the cured product can exhibit high heat resistance. Furthermore, when an epoxy resin having two or more epoxy groups is used, the degree of crosslinking with a curing agent having a functional group reactive with the epoxy group is sufficient, and sufficient heat resistance can be obtained in the cured product.

[0045] Examples of epoxy resins include bifunctional epoxy resins having two epoxy groups per molecule, multifunctional epoxy resins having three or more epoxy groups per molecule, and high-molecular-weight epoxy resins having a weight-average molecular weight of 10,000 or more. These may also be hydrogenated epoxy resins. In this application, epoxy resins having a weight-average molecular weight of 10,000 or more are not classified as bifunctional or multifunctional epoxy resins, but as high-molecular-weight epoxy resins, regardless of the number of epoxy groups per molecule. The weight-average molecular weight of an epoxy resin is the molecular weight in terms of polystyrene measured by gel permeation chromatography.

[0046] Examples of epoxy resins include bisphenol-based epoxy resins such as bisphenol A type epoxy resin, bisphenol F type epoxy resin, or phenoxy resins obtained by polymerizing these resins, and hydrogenated versions of these resins; novolac type epoxy resins such as phenol novolac epoxy resin, o-cresol novolac epoxy resin, bisphenol A novolac epoxy resin, xylene structure-containing novolac epoxy resin, and naphthol novolac type epoxy resin; glycidyl ester-based epoxy resins such as phthalic acid diglycidyl ester, isophthalic acid diglycidyl ester, terephthalic acid diglycidyl ester, p-hydroxybenzoic acid glycidyl ester, tetrahydrophthalic acid diglycidyl ester, succinic acid diglycidyl ester, adipic acid diglycidyl ester, sebacic acid diglycidyl ester, and trimellitic acid triglycidyl ester; ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, propylene glycol diglycidyl ether, 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether, 1,6-hexanediol diglycidyl ether, glycidyl ether-based epoxy resins such as glycidyl ether, trimethylolpropane triglycidyl ether, pentaerythritol tetraglycidyl ether, tetraphenylglycidyl ether ethane, triphenylglycidyl ether ethane, polyglycidyl ether of sorbitol, and polyglycidyl ether of polyglycerol; glycidylamine-based epoxy resins such as triglycidyl isocyanurate and tetraglycidyldiaminodiphenylmethane; linear aliphatic epoxy resins such as epoxidized polybutadiene and epoxidized soybean oil; and special skeleton epoxy resins such as brominated bisphenol A-type epoxy resins, phosphorus-containing epoxy resins, fluorine-containing epoxy resins, dicyclopentadiene skeleton-containing epoxy resins, naphthalene skeleton-containing epoxy resins, anthracene-type epoxy resins, tertiary butylcatechol-type epoxy resins, triphenylmethane-type epoxy resins, tetraphenylethane-type epoxy resins, biphenyl-type epoxy resins, and bisphenol S-type epoxy resins, but are not limited to these.

[0047] Examples of high molecular weight epoxy resins that can be used include phenoxy resin, epoxy-modified polybutadiene, copolymers of glycidyl methacrylate and methyl methacrylate, modified polymers obtained by epoxy-modifying other resins, etc. These epoxy resins may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0048] Among the above epoxy resins, polyfunctional epoxy resins are preferred as the epoxy resin used in the black curable resin layer 10 from the viewpoint of increasing the crosslink density after curing. Among polyfunctional epoxy resins, novolac-type epoxy resins are particularly preferred for the following reasons. Novolac-type epoxy resins are epoxy resins that can be appropriately introduced with a flexible skeleton, allowing for adjustment of flexibility and softening point. This makes the cured product less susceptible to brittle fracture, improving the performance stability of the cured product of the epoxy resin composition over long-term use and increasing the crosslink density. Additionally, the heat resistance of the cured product is also improved.

[0049] Specific examples of novolac-type epoxy resins include "YX7700" manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, "NC7000L", "XD1000", and "EOCN-1020" manufactured by Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd., "ESN485" manufactured by Nippon Steel Chemical & Material Co., Ltd., and "N-660", "N-690", "N-695", and "HP-7200H" manufactured by DIC Corporation.

[0050] The blending amount of the polyfunctional epoxy resin in the black curing resin layer 10 is preferably 10 to 99 mass%, more preferably 40 to 95 mass%, and even more preferably 60 to 90 mass%, relative to 100 mass% of the total resin solid content of the black curing resin layer 10. When the blending amount is equal to or greater than the lower limit, the crosslinking density can be increased, thereby imparting chemical resistance and heat resistance. When the blending amount is equal to or less than the upper limit, the storage modulus during thermocompression bonding can be adjusted, thereby ensuring the fluidity of the black curing resin layer 10.

[0051] The black curable resin layer 10 preferably does not contain a high-molecular-weight epoxy resin. This makes it easier to ensure sufficient fluidity of the black curable resin layer 10 during thermocompression bonding. When the black curable resin layer 10 contains a high-molecular-weight epoxy resin, the blending amount of the high-molecular-weight epoxy resin is preferably less than 50% by mass, more preferably less than 30% by mass, and even more preferably less than 10% by mass, relative to 100% by mass of the total resin solid content of the black curable resin layer 10.

[0052] From the viewpoint of ensuring sufficient fluidity during thermocompression bonding, the black curable resin layer 10 preferably contains an epoxy resin having a softening point or melting point of 100° C. or less. From the viewpoint of handleability and heat resistance of the cured product, the black curable resin layer 10 more preferably contains an epoxy resin having a softening point or melting point of 40 to 95° C. By containing an epoxy resin having a softening point or melting point within the above range, it becomes easier to control the storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10.

[0053] The total amount of epoxy resin in the black curing resin layer 10 is preferably 10 to 100% by mass, more preferably 20 to 99% by mass, and even more preferably 35 to 95% by mass, relative to 100% by mass of the total resin solids content of the black curing resin layer 10. Within this range, it is easy to control the storage modulus of the black curing resin layer 10, and appropriate fluidity during thermocompression bonding can be ensured. Furthermore, when the amount is equal to or greater than the above lower limit, the heat resistance of the black curing resin layer 10 after curing can be improved.

[0054] (Elastomer) The black curable resin layer 10 preferably contains an elastomer in addition to a resin such as an epoxy resin. The inclusion of an elastomer makes it easier to control the storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10, i.e., to control the fluidity. This makes it possible to prevent uneven pressure during thermocompression bonding of the black curable resin layer 10, reduce unevenness in the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 after thermocompression bonding, and make it less likely that unevenness in the blackness will occur.

[0055] As the elastomer, a thermosetting elastomer, commonly called "rubber," is preferred because it provides excellent heat resistance. Examples of thermosetting elastomers include acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), which is a random copolymer of butadiene and acrylonitrile, acrylic rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, vinyl acetate resin, and silicone resin. Among these, NBR is preferred. NBR has good compatibility with epoxy resins, making it easy to control the fluidity of the black curable resin layer 10 at around 100°C, resulting in good adhesion between the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 and the element-mounted substrate 2.

[0056] The weight-average molecular weight of the elastomer is preferably 100,000 to 1,000,000, more preferably 120,000 to 500,000, and even more preferably 150,000 to 300,000. When the weight-average molecular weight of the elastomer is within the above range, the storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 can be easily controlled, and fluidity during thermocompression bonding can be ensured. When the weight-average molecular weight of the elastomer is equal to or less than the above upper limit, compatibility between the elastomer and the epoxy resin is improved, and fluidity during thermal curing of the black curable resin layer 10 can be more effectively controlled.

[0057] In particular, when the black curable resin layer 10 is composed of an epoxy resin composition, it preferably contains a modified elastomer having a functional group reactive with an epoxy group. The modified elastomer having a functional group reactive with an epoxy group also functions as a curing agent for the epoxy resin. Furthermore, because the modified elastomer can react and bond with the epoxy resin, the heat resistance and thermal shock resistance of the cured black curable resin layer 10 are improved. Furthermore, the difference in polarity between the functional group reactive with the epoxy resin and the resin backbone favorably affects dispersibility, improving the dispersibility of pigments such as carbon black and the above-mentioned fillers contained in the black curable resin layer 10.

[0058] Examples of functional groups that can react with epoxy groups include acid groups such as carboxy groups, sulfo groups, nitro groups, and phosphate groups, as well as their acid anhydride groups, hydroxyl groups, and amino groups. Among these, acid groups and acid anhydride groups are preferred because they allow curing at low temperatures and ensure a long usable time. For the same reasons, carboxy groups and carboxylic acid anhydride groups are particularly preferred.

[0059] That is, when the black curable resin layer 10 is composed of an epoxy resin composition, it preferably contains an acid-modified elastomer having an acid group or an acid anhydride group, more preferably contains an acid-modified elastomer having a carboxy group, and even more preferably contains modified NBR having a carboxy group.

[0060] The modified NBR having a carboxy group is preferably a carboxylated acrylonitrile rubber into which acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, maleic anhydride, etc. have been introduced. Commercially available carboxylated acrylonitrile rubbers include "NX775" and "1072CGJ" manufactured by Zeon Corporation. Two or more types of modified elastomers having functional groups reactive with epoxy groups may be used in combination.

[0061] The amount of elastomer in the black curable resin layer 10 is preferably 0.01 to 90% by mass, more preferably 1 to 80% by mass, and even more preferably 5 to 65% by mass, relative to 100% by mass of the total resin solids content of the black curable resin layer 10. Within this range, the storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 can be easily controlled, ensuring appropriate fluidity of the black curable resin layer 10 during thermocompression bonding. Furthermore, when the amount is equal to or greater than the lower limit, the dispersibility of pigments such as carbon black and the above-mentioned fillers in the epoxy resin composition is improved. Furthermore, the film-forming properties of the epoxy resin composition are improved, allowing for a narrower film thickness distribution when the epoxy resin composition is applied to form a film.

[0062] (hardening agent) When the black curable resin layer 10 is composed of an epoxy resin composition, it may contain a curing agent for epoxy resins other than the modified elastomer having a functional group reactive with an epoxy group. Examples of other curing agents include known curing agents such as phenol-based curing agents, acid anhydride-based curing agents, and amine-based curing agents. Two or more of the other curing agents may be used in combination.

[0063] (curing catalyst) When the black curable resin layer 10 is composed of an epoxy resin composition, it may contain a curing catalyst that promotes the curing reaction of the epoxy resin. Examples of curing catalysts include imidazole-based, tertiary amine-based, and phosphorus compound-based catalysts. Among these, imidazole-based catalysts are preferred because they are compatible with epoxy resins and less likely to cause yellowing. Among imidazole-based curing catalysts, those containing a cyanoethyl group are particularly preferred because they are easily soluble in epoxy resins. The blending amount of the curing catalyst is preferably 0.01 to 5 parts by mass, more preferably 0.05 to 4 parts by mass, and even more preferably 0.1 to 3 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total resin solids content of the black curable resin layer 10. Within the above ranges, the curing of the black curable resin layer 10 can be sufficiently promoted, ensuring the usable life of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1. Two or more curing catalysts may be used in combination.

[0064] (Black pigments such as carbon black or black dyes) The black curable resin layer 10 is colored black. For coloring, it preferably contains a black pigment or black dye, more preferably contains black pigments such as carbon black, titanium oxide, or iron oxide, and even more preferably contains carbon black. By coloring the black curable resin layer 10 black, it is possible to achieve light blocking between the multiple light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 of the element-mounted substrate 2.

[0065] The particle size of carbon black is preferably 10 to 500 nm, more preferably 10 to 300 nm, and even more preferably 10 to 100 nm. The particle size refers to the average particle size, and in this specification, the average particle size of carbon black refers to the average particle size measured by dynamic light scattering. An example of a measuring device using dynamic light scattering is the NANOTRAC WAVE II UT151 manufactured by Microtrack Bell.

[0066] As the carbon black, one or more types of known carbon black such as gas black, channel black, furnace black, thermal black, and lamp black can be used. Resin-coated carbon black may also be used. Furthermore, carbon nanofibers and carbon nanotubes may also be used.

[0067] Among the above carbon blacks, gas black is preferred because it has many surface functional groups and high dispersibility, and therefore exhibits sufficient light-blocking properties even when added in a small amount. Furthermore, when the black curable resin layer 10 contains a modified elastomer having functional groups reactive with epoxy resins, the dispersibility is further enhanced due to the interaction between the surface functional groups of the gas black and the functional groups of the modified elastomer having functional groups reactive with epoxy resins, thereby ensuring good light-blocking properties and coating liquid stability.

[0068] The blending amount of carbon black is preferably 0.05 to 15 mass %, more preferably 0.1 to 5 mass %, relative to 100 mass % of the total resin solid content of the black cured resin layer 10. When the blending amount of carbon black is equal to or greater than the above lower limit, sufficient light-blocking properties can be obtained. When the blending amount of carbon black is equal to or less than the above upper limit, the thixotropy of the black cured resin layer 10 can be reduced, and the fluidity of the black cured resin layer 10 during thermocompression bonding can be increased. This allows the black cured resin layer 10 to sufficiently fill the spaces between the multiple light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 of the element-mounted substrate 2.

[0069] (Other ingredients) The black curable resin layer 10 may further contain, as needed, resins other than epoxy resins and elastomers, thickeners, antifoaming agents and / or leveling agents, adhesion promoters such as coupling agents, and flame retardants.

[0070] (2)Transparent curable resin layer The transparent curable resin layer 11 is a layer for sufficiently pressing the black curable resin layer 10 into spaces between the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23 arranged on the element-mounted substrate 2 in the compression bonding and filling steps described below. The transparent curable resin layer 11 is formed between the black curable resin layer 10 and a base layer 12 described below.

[0071] [Total light transmittance] The total light transmittance of the transparent curable resin layer 11 in a cured state is higher than the total light transmittance of the black curable resin layer 10. As described above, in the present application, the total light transmittance of the transparent curable resin layer 11 in a cured state is a value calculated excluding the influence of the base layer 12 alone. The total light transmittance of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is preferably adjusted to be 50 to 99%, more preferably adjusted to be 60 to 99%, and even more preferably adjusted to be 70 to 99%.

[0072] [Storage modulus] The storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 in an uncured state is preferably greater than that of the black curable resin layer 10. Similarly, at 100°C and 150°C, the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is preferably greater than that of the black curable resin layer 10.

[0073] The storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is preferably greater than that of the black curable resin layer 10 at 100 to 150°C. When the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is greater than that of the black curable resin layer 10 at 100°C and 150°C, the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is usually greater than that of the black curable resin layer 10 over the entire range of 100 to 150°C.

[0074] The storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 100° C. is preferably 1.0×10 3 ~1.0×10 7 Pa, and more preferably 5.0×10 3 ~5.0×10 5 It is Pa.

[0075] When the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 100°C is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, the transparent curable resin layer 11 can have an appropriate flexibility that does not hinder the flow of the black curable resin layer 10 when pressure-bonded to the element-mounted substrate 2. In addition, the transparent curable resin layer 11 can sufficiently fill the spaces between the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23.

[0076] When the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 100°C is equal to or greater than the preferred lower limit, the fluidity of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is suppressed, and the surface of the transparent curable resin layer 11 can be made smoother after thermocompression bonding to fit the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. As a result, the appearance can be improved, and appearance defects such as repellency, which causes depressions on the layer surface during thermal curing, can be made less likely to occur.

[0077] The storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 150°C is preferably 1.0×10 4 Pa or more, more preferably 1.0×10 4 ~5.0×10 7 Pa, and even more preferably 1.0×10 5 ~5.0×10 6 Pa. When the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 150°C is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, cracks due to cure shrinkage are less likely to occur during thermal curing. When the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 150°C is equal to or greater than the preferred lower limit, flow of the transparent curable resin layer 11 during thermal curing can be suppressed, and poor appearance after curing, such as repellency, can be suppressed. Furthermore, problems are less likely to occur when etching is performed in a subsequent process.

[0078] The storage elastic modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 100°C is preferably 10 to 1,000 times, and more preferably 30 to 500 times, the storage elastic modulus of the black curable resin layer 10. The storage elastic modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 150°C is preferably 5 to 10,000 times, and more preferably 10 to 1,000 times, the storage elastic modulus of the black curable resin layer 10. When the storage elastic modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is higher than that of the black curable resin layer 10 at 100°C and 150°C, the storage elastic modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is usually higher than that of the black curable resin layer 10 over the entire temperature range from 100 to 150°C.

[0079] The storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 60°C after heat treatment at 120°C for 1 hour is preferably 7×10 8 ~2×10 10 Pa. When the storage modulus is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, cracks can be prevented in the cured transparent curable resin layer 11 when the edge of the substrate 20 is cut. When the storage modulus is equal to or more than the preferred lower limit, deformation and expansion / contraction of the cured transparent curable resin layer 11 can be prevented when the edge of the substrate 20 is cut. As a result, wavy distortion of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 can be prevented on the edge side of the substrate 20.

[0080] [Curable resin composition] The transparent curable resin layer 11 is composed of a curable resin composition. As with the black curable resin layer 10, the curable resin composition may be, for example, a curable resin composition containing at least one resin selected from epoxy resin, acrylic resin, polyester resin, polyurethane resin, and silicone resin, and a curing agent. Among these, an epoxy resin composition is preferred because it can be cured at low temperature and has excellent heat resistance and reliability.

[0081] (epoxy resin) Examples of epoxy resins used in the transparent curable resin layer 11 include the same types as those used in the black curable resin layer 10. From the viewpoint of being able to impart an appropriate viscosity during compression bonding to the transparent curable resin layer 11, the transparent curable resin layer 11 preferably contains a high-molecular-weight epoxy resin having a weight-average molecular weight of 10,000 to 100,000. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of having good compatibility with other resin components and being able to dissolve without mixing with a high-boiling-point solvent that may remain in the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 even after drying, the transparent curable resin layer 11 more preferably contains a high-molecular-weight epoxy resin having a weight-average molecular weight of 10,000 to 35,000.

[0082] The transparent curable resin layer 11 contains a high-molecular-weight epoxy resin with a weight-average molecular weight of 10,000 to 100,000, and thus has an appropriate viscosity when heated. Therefore, the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at 100 to 150°C can be adjusted to a preferred range. The high-molecular-weight epoxy resin is preferably a phenoxy resin because of its good compatibility with other epoxy resins.

[0083] Phenoxy resin has a relatively large molecular weight among epoxy resins and has an appropriate viscosity when heated. Therefore, the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 containing phenoxy resin can be adjusted within a preferred range within a temperature range of 100 to 150°C. Furthermore, unlike other thermoplastic resins such as polyester, phenoxy resin can be cured as an epoxy resin. Therefore, phenoxy resin increases crosslink density and does not impair the heat resistance of the cured product or the reliability of its performance over long periods of use. From the viewpoint of ensuring a storage modulus sufficient to compress the black curable resin layer 10 during thermocompression bonding, the glass transition temperature of the phenoxy resin used in the transparent curable resin layer 11 is preferably 100°C or higher.

[0084] Specific examples of phenoxy resins include "1256," "YX7200," "YX8100," and "YX7180" manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, "YP-50," "YP-50S," and "YP-70" manufactured by Nippon Steel Chemical & Material Co., Ltd., and "N-690," "H-157," and "EXA-192" manufactured by DIC Corporation.

[0085] The blending amount of the high molecular weight epoxy resin in the transparent curable resin layer 11 is preferably 30 to 80 mass %, more preferably 40 to 70 mass %, and even more preferably 45 to 60 mass %, relative to 100 mass % of the total resin solid content of the transparent curable resin layer 11. The same is true for the preferred blending amount of the phenoxy resin in the transparent curable resin layer 11.

[0086] When the blending amount is within the above range, it becomes easy to control the storage modulus. This ensures a storage modulus sufficient to compress the transparent curable resin layer 11 during thermocompression bonding. Furthermore, flow during thermal curing can be suppressed, and poor appearance after curing, such as repellency, can be suppressed. Furthermore, problems are less likely to occur when etching is performed in a subsequent process. Furthermore, toughness is improved, and crack-like defects are less likely to occur during thermocompression bonding. Furthermore, when the blending amount is equal to or less than the above upper limit, the crosslink density of the transparent curable resin layer 11 in the cured state can be increased, and heat resistance and chemical resistance can be improved.

[0087] Furthermore, the epoxy resin used in the transparent curable resin layer 11 preferably contains a multifunctional epoxy resin. The multifunctional epoxy resin increases the crosslink density, thereby further improving the stability of the performance of the cured product of the epoxy resin composition over long-term use and improving heat resistance. Furthermore, the viscosity of the multifunctional epoxy resin is lower than that of the phenoxy resin in the range of 100 to 150°C. Therefore, by combining the multifunctional epoxy resin with the phenoxy resin, the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 can be adjusted.

[0088] Specific examples of polyfunctional epoxy resins include "YX7700," "157S70," and "1032S60" manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, "NC7000L," "XD1000," and "EOCN-1020" manufactured by Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd., "ESN485" manufactured by Nippon Steel Chemical & Material Co., Ltd., and "N-660," "N-690," "N-695," and "HP-7200H" manufactured by DIC Corporation.

[0089] The blending amount of the polyfunctional epoxy resin in the transparent curable resin layer 11 is preferably 90% by mass or less, more preferably 10 to 80% by mass, and even more preferably 25 to 60% by mass, relative to 100% by mass of the total resin solid content of the transparent curable resin layer 11. Within the above ranges, the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 during thermocompression bonding can be controlled, and heat resistance and chemical resistance can be imparted in the cured state.

[0090] From the viewpoint of ensuring sufficient fluidity during thermocompression bonding, the transparent curable resin layer 11 preferably contains an epoxy resin having a softening point or melting point of 120° C. or less, and from the viewpoint of handleability and heat resistance of the cured product, more preferably contains an epoxy resin having a softening point or melting point of 50 to 105° C. By containing an epoxy resin having a softening point or melting point within the above range, it becomes possible to control the storage modulus.

[0091] The total amount of epoxy resin in the transparent curable resin layer 11 is preferably 10 to 100% by mass, more preferably 30 to 99% by mass, and even more preferably 50 to 95% by mass, relative to 100% by mass of the total resin solids content of the transparent curable resin layer 11. Within this range, control of the storage modulus is easy. This ensures a storage modulus sufficient to compress the black curable resin layer 10 during thermocompression bonding. Furthermore, within this range, flow during thermal curing can be suppressed, and poor appearance after curing, such as repellency, can be suppressed. Furthermore, problems are less likely to occur when etching is performed in a subsequent step. Furthermore, if the amount is equal to or greater than the lower limit, heat resistance in the cured state is improved.

[0092] (Elastomer) The transparent curable resin layer 11 preferably contains an elastomer in addition to a resin such as an epoxy resin. The inclusion of an elastomer makes it easier to control the storage modulus. Examples of elastomers include the same types as those used for the black curable resin layer 10. Among them, NBR is preferred for the following reasons: NBR has good compatibility with epoxy resins. Furthermore, it can increase the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 at around 150°C, thereby improving the adhesion between the transparent curable resin layer 11 and the black curable resin layer 10. The preferred weight-average molecular weight of the elastomer is the same as that of the black curable resin layer 10.

[0093] In particular, when the transparent curable resin layer 11 is composed of an epoxy resin composition, it preferably contains a modified elastomer having a functional group capable of reacting with an epoxy group. The modified elastomer also functions as a curing agent for the epoxy resin. Furthermore, because it reacts with and bonds to the epoxy resin, it improves heat resistance and reliability against thermal shock. Furthermore, the difference in polarity between the functional group and the resin backbone favorably affects dispersibility. This allows for favorable dispersibility when carbon black is incorporated into the transparent curable resin layer 11.

[0094] Examples of functional groups capable of reacting with an epoxy group include the same types as those of the black curable resin layer 10. Among them, an acid group or an acid anhydride group is preferred, and a carboxy group or a carboxylic acid anhydride group is particularly preferred, because they can be cured at low temperatures and ensure a long usable time.

[0095] When the transparent curable resin layer 11 is composed of an epoxy resin composition, it particularly preferably contains modified NBR having a carboxy group. Examples of modified NBR having a carboxy group include the same types as those used for the black curable resin layer 10. Two or more types of modified elastomers having a functional group reactive with an epoxy group may be used in combination.

[0096] The amount of elastomer in the transparent curable resin layer 11 is preferably 0 to 50% by mass, more preferably 1 to 50% by mass, and even more preferably 5 to 50% by mass, relative to 100% by mass of the total resin solids content of the transparent curable resin layer 11. Within this range, the storage modulus can be controlled. Furthermore, when the amount is equal to or less than the upper limit, a storage modulus sufficient to compress the black curable resin layer 10 during thermocompression bonding can be ensured. Furthermore, flow during thermal curing can be suppressed, and poor appearance after curing, such as repellency, can be suppressed. Furthermore, problems are less likely to occur when etching is performed in a subsequent process. Furthermore, when the amount is equal to or greater than the lower limit, good dispersibility can be obtained when carbon black is added. Furthermore, film-formability is improved, and the film thickness distribution can be narrowed when the epoxy resin composition is applied to form a film.

[0097] (hardening agent) When the transparent curable resin layer 11 is composed of an epoxy resin composition, it may contain, in addition to the modified elastomer having a functional group reactive with an epoxy group, other curing agents for epoxy resins. Examples of other curing agents include the same curing agents as those used in the black curable resin layer 10. Two or more types of other curing agents may be used in combination.

[0098] (curing catalyst) When the transparent curable resin layer 11 is made of an epoxy resin composition, it may contain a curing catalyst that accelerates the curing reaction of the epoxy resin. Examples of the curing catalyst include the same curing catalysts as those used for the black curable resin layer 10, and preferred embodiments are also the same.

[0099] The blending amount of the curing catalyst is preferably 0.01 to 5 parts by mass, more preferably 0.05 to 4 parts by mass, and even more preferably 0.1 to 3 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total resin solid content of the transparent curing resin layer 11. Within the above range, curing can be sufficiently promoted, and the usable life of the one-piece encapsulating sheet 1 can be ensured. Two or more types of curing catalysts may be used in combination.

[0100] (Other ingredients) The transparent curable resin layer 11 may contain a black pigment or black dye to suppress uneven light emission and uneven color.

[0101] When the transparent curable resin layer 11 contains carbon black, the amount of carbon black is preferably less than 5 parts by mass, more preferably 1 part by mass or less, and even more preferably 0.1 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total resin solids content. The transparent curable resin layer 11 may further contain, as necessary, a resin other than the epoxy resin and elastomer, a thickener, a defoaming agent and / or a leveling agent, an adhesion imparting agent such as a coupling agent, and a flame retardant.

[0102] [Film thickness] The thickness of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 10 to 250 μm, more preferably 20 to 225 μm, and even more preferably 25 to 150 μm.

[0103] (3) Base material layer The substrate layer 12 is a layer for protecting the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23 from external physical impacts, humidity, moisture, etc. The substrate layer 12 also serves as a base for forming layers such as the black curable resin layer 10, the transparent curable resin layer 11, and the hard coat layer 15 described below. The substrate layer 12 is a cured layer.

[0104] [Total light transmittance] The total light transmittance of the base layer 12 can be measured using a haze meter or the like in accordance with JIS K 7361-1. The total light transmittance is preferably adjusted to 30 to 99%, more preferably adjusted to 35 to 95%, and even more preferably adjusted to 40 to 95%. When the total light transmittance of the base layer 12 is equal to or greater than the lower limit, light is not prevented from reaching the viewer's side.

[0105] [Storage modulus] The storage modulus of the base layer 12 at 60°C is preferably 7×10 8 ~2×10 10 Pa, and more preferably 1×10 9 ~1×1010 Pa, and even more preferably 2×10 9 ~6×10 9 When the storage modulus at 60° C. of the base layer 12 is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, cracking of the base layer 12 can be reduced.

[0106] [resin] The substrate layer 12 may be composed of a thermoplastic resin or a thermosetting resin. Examples of resins that may be used for the substrate layer 12 include polyethylene terephthalate resin, polybutylene terephthalate resin, polyethylene 2,6-naphthalate resin, polyamide resin, polycarbonate resin, polycarbonate copolymer resin, triacetyl cellulose resin, polymethylpentene resin, phenoxy resin, syndiotactic polystyrene resin, and polyimide resin. In terms of heat resistance, weather resistance, availability, cost, and other factors, the substrate layer 12 preferably contains at least one resin selected from polyethylene terephthalate resin, polyethylene 2,6-naphthalate resin, polycarbonate resin, polycarbonate copolymer resin, and polyamide resin. The inclusion of these resins can prevent deformation during pressure bonding. The substrate layer 12 may also contain a black pigment or black dye to suppress uneven light emission and color.

[0107] [Film thickness] The thickness of the base material layer 12 is preferably 10 to 250 μm, more preferably 20 to 225 μm, and even more preferably 25 to 150 μm. When the thickness of the base material layer 12 is equal to or greater than the preferred lower limit, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of wrinkles when the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 is thermocompression bonded to the plurality of light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, and also to improve the handleability. When the thickness of the base material layer 12 is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, it is possible to improve the visibility and reduce the cost.

[0108] (4) Protective sheet The protective sheets 13 and 14 have a role of protecting the integrated encapsulating sheet 1. When the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 is formed, the protective sheet 13 can also be used as a sheet to which a coating liquid of a curable resin composition is applied.

[0109] The protective sheets 13 and 14 may be sheets made of thermoplastic resins such as polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate and polyethylene naphthalate, polyimide, polyamide-imide, polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene, or surface-treated paper.

[0110] Among these, polyester sheets are preferred from the viewpoints of heat resistance, mechanical strength, ease of handling, etc. The thickness of the protective sheets 13, 14 is not particularly limited and may be selected appropriately depending on the application within the range of approximately 10 to 150 μm. The surface of the protective sheet 13 on which the black curable resin layer 10 is to be provided may be subjected to a release treatment.

[0111] 2. Manufacturing method of integrated encapsulating sheet To obtain the integrated encapsulating sheet 1, first, a protective sheet 13 is prepared by applying a coating liquid of a curable resin composition for the black curable resin layer 10 containing the above-mentioned filler to the protective sheet 13 and drying the same (A), and a substrate layer 12 is prepared by applying a coating liquid of a curable resin composition for the transparent curable resin layer 11 to the substrate layer 12 and drying the same (B).

[0112] Thereafter, the above-mentioned (A) and (B) are laminated together so that the transparent curable resin layer 11 and the black curable resin layer 10 are in contact with each other, thereby obtaining a laminate in which the black curable resin layer 10, the transparent curable resin layer 11, and the base layer 12 are laminated in this order on the protective sheet 13. A protective sheet 14 may be laminated on the outer surface of the base layer 12, if necessary.

[0113] The coating liquid of the curable resin composition for the black curable resin layer 10 and / or the coating liquid of the curable resin composition for the transparent curable resin layer 11 preferably contains an organic solvent in an amount sufficient to achieve a viscosity that allows for smooth application. The organic solvent is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include ketones, aromatic hydrocarbons, glycol ethers, glycol ether acetates, esters, alcohols, aliphatic hydrocarbons, and petroleum-based solvents. Specific examples include ketones such as methyl ethyl ketone, cyclohexanone, methyl butyl ketone, and methyl isobutyl ketone; aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene, xylene, and tetramethylbenzene; glycol ethers such as cellosolve, methyl cellosolve, butyl cellosolve, carbitol, methyl carbitol, butyl carbitol, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol diethyl ether, and triethylene glycol monoethyl ether; ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol diethyl ether, and triethylene glycol monoethyl ether; and ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, and ethyl acetate. Examples of suitable solvents include esters such as propylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, dipropylene glycol methyl ether acetate, propylene glycol methyl ether acetate, propylene glycol ethyl ether acetate, and propylene glycol butyl ether acetate; alcohols such as ethanol, propanol, 2-methoxypropanol, n-butanol, isobutyl alcohol, isopentyl alcohol, ethylene glycol, and propylene glycol; aliphatic hydrocarbons such as octane and decane; petroleum solvents such as petroleum ether, petroleum naphtha, hydrogenated petroleum naphtha, and solvent naphtha, as well as N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), tetrachloroethylene, and turpentine. When incorporating carbon black into the coating liquid, carbon black powder may be added to the coating liquid, or a liquid in which carbon black has been previously dispersed (carbon black dispersion) may be added.

[0114] Examples of methods for applying the curable resin composition include methods using various coaters such as a die coater, gravure coater, roll coater, curtain flow coater, spin coater, bar coater, reverse coater, kiss coater, fountain coater, rod coater, air doctor coater, knife coater, blade coater, cast coater, screen coater, etc. The drying temperature is preferably 60 to 160°C, more preferably 80 to 130°C, and even more preferably 90 to 120°C.

[0115] The temperature during lamination is preferably 20 to 120°C, more preferably 30 to 100°C, and even more preferably 40 to 80°C. By setting the temperature at or above the preferred lower limit, it is possible to ensure adhesion between the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 that allows handling even in uncured states. Furthermore, by setting the temperature at or below the preferred upper limit, it is possible to prevent air bubbles from being trapped between the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 and the occurrence of wrinkles in the layers 10 and 11. Lamination can be performed using, for example, a roll laminator, a press, a vacuum press, or the like.

[0116] 3. Substrate with elements As shown in Fig. 2, the element-mounted substrate 2 has a plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 arranged on a substrate 20. Fig. 2 and other figures schematically show a portion where three light-emitting elements (light-emitting element 21, light-emitting element 22, and light-emitting element 23) are arranged.

[0117] There is no limitation on the material of the substrate 20, but known printed circuit boards can be suitably used, such as glass epoxy boards, fluororesin boards, ceramic boards, and glass boards.

[0118] The light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 are typically light-emitting diodes. This embodiment is particularly suitable for cases where the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 are extremely small. For example, light-emitting diodes with a height of 1000 nm to 200 μm and a side length of 0.001 to 0.5 mm can be used. The element-mounted substrate 20 for obtaining mini LEDs or micro LEDs can use light-emitting diodes of three colors (R, G, and B) or blue light-emitting diodes as the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. Furthermore, the heights of the multiple light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 on the substrate 20 do not all need to be the same, and may be different from each other, preferably at least at one point.

[0119] 4. Light-emitting electronic components and manufacturing methods thereof The light-emitting electronic component 5 of this embodiment comprises an element-mounted substrate 2 having a plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23 arranged on a substrate 20, and an integrated encapsulating cured sheet 3 pressed against the surface of the element-mounted substrate 2 on which the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23 are arranged.

[0120] The integrated encapsulating cured sheet 3 is capable of blocking light emitted from the plurality of light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, and includes at least a black resin layer 30 containing the above-described filler, a transparent resin layer 31 having higher light transmittance than the black resin layer 30, and a base layer 12, with the black resin layer 30, the transparent resin layer 31, and the base layer 12 laminated in this order from the side in contact with the element-mounted substrate 2. The black resin layer 30 and the transparent resin layer 31 are cured layers obtained by thermally curing the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11, respectively. That is, the integrated encapsulating cured sheet 3 is a sheet obtained by curing the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1.

[0121] The thickness of the transparent resin layer 31 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.1 to 5.0 times the height of the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. The thickness of the black resin layer 30 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.1 to 0.9 times the height of the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23.

[0122] (Luminance transmittance) In the present application, the "luminance transmittance" refers to the transmittance calculated from the luminance of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 on the element-mounted substrate 2 before and after pressure-bonding of the cured sheet for integral encapsulation 3. Specifically, the luminance of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 on the element-mounted substrate 2 when lit (hereinafter also referred to as "pre-mounting luminance") before pressure-bonding of the cured sheet for integral encapsulation 3, and the luminance of the light-emitting electronic component 5 when lit (hereinafter also referred to as "post-mounting luminance") are measured. Then, the luminance transmittance is calculated by substituting each measured value into the following formula (I). That is, the luminance transmittance is calculated by dividing the value of the post-mounting luminance by the value of the pre-mounting luminance. The luminance transmittance is preferably 65% or more, more preferably 70 to 90%, and even more preferably 75 to 85%. Luminance transmittance (%) = (luminance after mounting / luminance before mounting) × 100 (I)

[0123] (L* value of light-emitting electronic components) In the present application, the L* value of the light-emitting electronic component 5 is measured from the side of the base material layer 12 or the hard coat layer 15 described below using a D65 light source, a 2° field of view, and a reflection method using the SCE method in accordance with JIS Z 8781-4. The coefficient of variation of the L* value of the light-emitting electronic component 5 (hereinafter also referred to as the "post-mounted L* value") is determined by measuring the post-mounted L* values of multiple light-emitting electronic components 5 and calculating the average and standard deviation of those values. In other words, it is calculated by dividing the standard deviation by the average value. The coefficient of variation is preferably 30% or less, more preferably 25% or less, and even more preferably less than 20%. A coefficient of variation of less than the upper limit indicates that the black resin layer 30 has little color unevenness.

[0124] The method for manufacturing a light-emitting electronic component according to the present embodiment includes the steps of: pressure-bonding the black curable resin layer 10 side of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 to the surface of the element-mounted substrate 2 on which the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23 are arranged, the surface having the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23 arranged on the substrate 20 (hereinafter referred to as the pressure-bonding step); filling the spaces between the plurality of light-emitting elements 21, 22, 23 with at least a portion of the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 (hereinafter referred to as the filling step); and curing the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 (hereinafter referred to as the curing step). Hereinafter, the method for manufacturing a light-emitting electronic component according to an embodiment (also simply referred to as the "manufacturing method according to an embodiment") will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4.

[0125] (i) Crimping process In the manufacturing method of this embodiment, first, the protective sheet 13 is peeled off to expose the black curable resin layer 10, and then pressure bonding of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 is started, with the black curable resin layer 10 in contact with the surface of the element-mounted substrate 2 on which the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 are arranged, as shown in Figure 2.

[0126] Before compression bonding, the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 is preferably 10 to 95% of the height of the light emitting elements 21, 22, 23. The lower limit is more preferably 15% or more, and even more preferably 30% or more. The upper limit is more preferably 85% or less, and even more preferably 75% or less.

[0127] When the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 is 10% or more of the height of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, the black curable resin layer 10 has sufficient light-shielding function between the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. Furthermore, when the black curable resin layer 10 has a relatively low storage modulus and high fluidity, the resin can be sufficiently filled between the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. When the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 is 15% or more of the height of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, crack-like defects are less likely to occur on the surface even when the fluidity of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is relatively low. When the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 is 30% or more of the height of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, the black curable resin layer 10, which has a light-shielding function, can be appropriately filled between the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23.

[0128] If the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 is 95% or less of the height of the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, leakage of the black curable resin layer 10 to the outside during thermocompression bonding can be prevented, and light from the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 is less likely to be hindered from reaching the viewer. If the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 is 85% or less of the height of the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, fluctuations in the film thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 that flows after pressing are less likely to occur, and variations in black shading are less likely to occur. If the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 is 75% or less of the height of the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, the black curable resin layer 10, which has a light-blocking function, can be appropriately filled between the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23.

[0129] The thickness of the transparent curable resin layer 11 before compression bonding is preferably 10 to 500% of the height of the light emitting elements 21, 22, 23. The lower limit is more preferably 20% or more, and even more preferably 30% or more. The upper limit is more preferably 200% or less, and even more preferably 150% or less.

[0130] When the thickness of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is 10% or more of the height of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, the transparent curable resin layer 11 easily functions as a sealing layer covering the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. Furthermore, when the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is relatively high and the fluidity of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is suppressed, the transparent curable resin layer 11 can be prevented from flowing together with the black curable resin layer 10 during thermal curing, making it less likely for poor appearance to occur on the surface. When the thickness of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is 20% or more of the height of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, the range in which the transparent curable resin layer 11 can flow is sufficient, making it less likely for crack-like defects to occur on the surface. When the thickness of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is 30% or more of the height of the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, the transparent curable resin layer 11 easily functions as a sealing layer covering the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. Furthermore, when the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is relatively high and the fluidity of the layer 11 is suppressed, the transparent curable resin layer 11 can sufficiently press into the black curable resin layer 10.

[0131] The total thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 before compression bonding is preferably 110 to 550% of the height of the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. When the total thickness is equal to or greater than the above-mentioned lower limit value with respect to the height of the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, a part of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 can be sufficiently embedded between the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. When the total thickness is equal to or less than the above-mentioned upper limit value with respect to the height of the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23, thickness unevenness is unlikely to occur during compression bonding, and poor appearance is unlikely to occur on the surface.

[0132] The ratio of the thickness of the black curable resin layer 10 before compression bonding to the total thickness of the transparent curable resin layer 11 and the black curable resin layer 10 before compression bonding is preferably 10 to 90%, more preferably 15 to 70%. If this thickness ratio is equal to or greater than the above-mentioned lower limit, the degree of blackness can be increased and the contrast of the display can be sufficiently improved. If this thickness ratio is equal to or less than the above-mentioned upper limit, the black curable resin layer 10 is less likely to remain on the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 during compression bonding, and brightness can be sufficiently improved.

[0133] (ii) Filling process Next, pressure bonding is continued to embed at least a part of the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 between the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 as shown in FIG. 3. At this time, the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 are filled between the plurality of light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. At this time, if the storage modulus of the black curable resin layer 10 is relatively low and the fluidity of the layer 10 is ensured, the black curable resin layer 10 will easily follow the unevenness of the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 and fill between the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23.

[0134] The temperature in the thermocompression bonding is preferably 80 to 120°C, more preferably 90 to 110°C. By setting the temperature to 80°C or higher, the fluidity of the black curing resin layer 10 of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 is easily ensured. Furthermore, by setting the temperature to 120°C or lower, the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 are less likely to be damaged. By setting the temperature to 90 to 110°C, the fluidity of the black curing resin layer 10 can be controlled more precisely, and the occurrence of unevenness and crack-like defects can be suppressed.

[0135] The pressure in the thermocompression bonding is 0.05 to 5.0 MPa, preferably 0.05 to 1.0 MPa, and more preferably 0.1 to 0.5 MPa. By setting the pressure to a preferred lower limit or higher, the black curable resin layer 10 can be sufficiently filled between the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. By setting the pressure to a preferred upper limit or lower, damage to the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 is reduced. The thermocompression bonding is preferably performed using a vacuum press capable of molding in a vacuum state. This makes it easier to avoid defects caused by air being mixed into the resulting light-emitting electronic component 5.

[0136] (iii) Curing process After the pressure-bonding, as shown in FIG. 4, the protective sheet 14 is peeled off and then thermally cured, so that the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 become a black resin layer 30 (a cured layer of the black curable resin layer 10) and a transparent resin layer 31 (a cured layer of the transparent curable resin layer 11), thereby obtaining a light-emitting electronic component 5.

[0137] The curing temperature is preferably 100 to 160°C, and more preferably 110 to 150°C. By setting the curing temperature to 100°C or higher, the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 of the integrated encapsulating sheet 1 can be reliably cured. By setting the curing temperature to 110°C or higher, the curing time of the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 can be shortened. Furthermore, by setting the curing temperature to the above upper limit temperature or lower, the light emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 are less likely to be damaged.

[0138] The curing time varies depending on the curing temperature, but is preferably 30 to 360 minutes, more preferably 45 to 180 minutes. If the storage modulus of the transparent curable resin layer 11 is relatively high and the fluidity of the layer 11 is suppressed at the curing temperature, poor appearance of the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 after curing can be suppressed.

[0139] 2 to 4 , a light-emitting electronic component 5 is obtained in which the integrated encapsulating cured sheet 3 is pressure-bonded to the surface of the element-mounted substrate 2 on which the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23 are arranged, the surface being the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23. In the obtained light-emitting electronic component 5, the black curable resin layer 10 and the transparent curable resin layer 11 are cured to form the black resin layer 30 and the transparent resin layer 31. At least a portion of the black resin layer 30 and the transparent resin layer 31 are filled between the light-emitting elements 21, 22, and 23.

[0140] (Second embodiment) Next, a second embodiment will be described. Portions common to the first embodiment will be assigned the same reference numerals and description thereof will be omitted. Fig. 5 shows a cross-sectional view of an integrated encapsulating sheet according to another embodiment, taken in the same manner as Fig. 1. Fig. 6 shows a cross-sectional view of a light-emitting electronic component according to another embodiment manufactured using the integrated encapsulating sheet of Fig. 5, taken in the same manner as Fig. 1.

[0141] 1. Integrated encapsulating sheet The integrated encapsulating sheet 1a according to another embodiment further includes a hard coat layer 15 on the surface of the substrate layer 12 opposite to the surface in contact with the transparent curable resin layer 11. Hereinafter, the hard coat layer will be described.

[0142] (5) Hard Coat Layer The hard coat layer 15 is formed on the surface of the base layer 12 opposite to the surface on which the transparent curable resin layer 11 is formed. The hard coat layer 15 has a scratch-proof effect on the base layer 12 and is a layer for protecting the light-emitting electronic component 5 from scratches. The hard coat layer 15 is a cured layer.

[0143] [hardness] The pencil hardness of the surface of the hard coat layer 15 is preferably H or higher, more preferably 2H or higher, and even more preferably 3H or higher.

[0144] [Surface roughness] The arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) of the surface of the hard coat layer 15 is preferably 0.1 to 1 μm, more preferably 0.2 to 1 μm, and even more preferably 0.3 to 1 μm. When the Ra of the hard coat layer 15 is equal to or greater than the preferred lower limit, the reflectance of the surface of the hard coat layer 15 can be reduced. When the Ra of the hard coat layer 15 is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, production can be facilitated.

[0145] [Total light transmittance] The hard coat layer 15 is preferably prepared so that the total light transmittance is 30 to 99%, more preferably 50 to 99%, and even more preferably 60 to 99%. When the total light transmittance of the hard coat layer 15 is equal to or greater than the lower limit, light reaching the viewer side is not hindered.

[0146] [resin] The hard coat layer 15 may be composed of either a thermoplastic resin or a thermosetting resin, and is preferably composed of a thermosetting resin. Examples of the thermosetting resin that constitutes the hard coat layer 15 include acrylic resin, polyurethane resin, silicone resin, melamine resin, etc., and the hard coat layer 15 may contain one or more of these. The hard coat layer 15 may also contain a black pigment or black dye.

[0147] [Fine particles] The hard coat layer 15 preferably contains fine particles. As the fine particles, inorganic fine particles, organic fine particles, or both can be used. Examples of inorganic fine particles include silica fine particles and titanium fine particles. Examples of organic fine particles include polymethyl methacrylate resin (PMMA resin) and polyurethane resin. Among these, silica fine particles are preferred. By containing fine particles, the surface roughness of the hard coat layer 15 can be adjusted and the surface hardness can be improved.

[0148] [Film thickness] The thickness of the hard coat layer 15 is preferably 1 to 20 μm, more preferably 2 to 10 μm, and even more preferably 3 to 8 μm. When the thickness of the hard coat layer 15 is equal to or greater than the preferred lower limit, sufficient hardness can be ensured. When the thickness of the hard coat layer 15 is equal to or less than the preferred upper limit, problems such as curling do not occur.

[0149] 2. Manufacturing method of integrated encapsulating sheet To obtain the integrated encapsulating sheet 1a according to the present embodiment, for example, a protective sheet 13 obtained in the same manner as in the first embodiment is coated with a coating liquid of a curable resin composition for the black curable resin layer 10 and dried, and a substrate layer 12 on which a hard coat layer 15 has been formed in advance is coated with a coating liquid of a curable resin composition for the transparent curable resin layer 11 on the surface opposite to the hard coat layer 15 and dried.

[0188] [Table 1]

[0189] <Evaluation method> [Measurement of storage modulus of each curable resin layer at 100°C] The storage modulus at 100°C of the black curable resin layer and transparent curable resin layer (hereinafter also referred to as each curable resin layer) according to each Example and Comparative Example was measured using a viscoelasticity measuring device (RSA-G2 manufactured by TA Instruments) under conditions of a measurement frequency of 1 Hz and a temperature rise rate of 5°C / min in accordance with JIS K7244. Specifically, each layer was coated on release PET 1-E (Nippa Corporation, release film, thickness 50 μm) so that the transparent curable resin layer had a dry film thickness of 30 μm and the black curable resin layer had a dry film thickness of 50 μm, and each curable resin layer was peeled off from 1-E and measured according to the above conditions. As a result, the storage modulus at 100°C of the transparent curable resin layer was 5.72 × 10 5 The storage modulus at 100° C. of the black curable resin layer according to each example and comparative example is shown in Table 2 below.

[0190] [Measurement of total light transmittance and haze value of black resin layer] The black layer laminated sheets according to each of the Examples and Comparative Examples obtained as described above were heated in an oven at 120°C for 1 hour to thermally cure the black curable resin layer, resulting in black test sheets in which the black resin layer was supported by release PET 1-E. The total light transmittance and haze value of each test black sheet were measured using a haze meter (NDH5000, manufactured by Nippon Denshoku Industries Co., Ltd.) according to JIS K 7361-1 and JIS K 7136. Similarly, the total light transmittance and haze value of the release PET 1-E alone were also measured. The total light transmittance and haze values calculated from the measured values of each test sheet, excluding the influence of release PET 1-E, are shown in Table 2 below.

[0191] [Calculation of luminance transmittance] The luminance of the light-emitting element on the evaluation element-mounted substrate before the integrated encapsulant sheet was crimped and filled was defined as the pre-mounted luminance, and the luminance of the light-emitting element of the light-emitting electronic component was defined as the post-mounted luminance. For the measurement, nine locations were randomly selected from the light-emitting elements on the evaluation element-mounted substrate as measurement locations. The pre-mounted luminance and post-mounted luminance of the nine selected locations were measured using a Konica Minolta CA-410 luminance meter. The luminance transmittance was calculated using the following formula (I). The average of the calculated luminance transmittances was calculated and is shown in Table 2 below. An average luminance transmittance of 65% or more was deemed to have passed, and an average luminance transmittance of less than 65% was deemed to have failed. Luminance transmittance (%) = (luminance after mounting / luminance before mounting) × 100 (I)

[0192] [Measurement of L* value and calculation of the coefficient of variation of L* value after mounting] For the black layer laminate sheets according to each Example and Comparative Example obtained as described above, the L* values were measured from the release PET 1-E side using a Konica Minolta CR-5 colorimeter in accordance with JIS Z 8781-4, using a light source of D65, a field of view of 2°, and a reflection method using the SCE method. The measured L* values are shown in Table 2. Furthermore, for the integrated encapsulation cured sheets for the mounted light-emitting electronic components, the L* values were similarly measured from the hard coat layer side with the light-emitting elements turned off (hereinafter referred to as "post-mounted L* values"). For the measurements, nine locations on the light-emitting elements on the light-emitting electronic components were randomly selected as measurement locations. Furthermore, the coefficient of variation of the post-mounted L* values for each Example and Comparative Example was calculated according to the following formula (II) from the average and standard deviation of the measured L* values at the nine locations. The calculated coefficients of variation are shown in Table 2 below. A coefficient of variation of less than 20 was considered acceptable, and a coefficient of variation of 20 or greater was considered unacceptable. Coefficient of variation of L* value after mounting (%) = (standard deviation of L* value after mounting / average L* value after mounting) × 100 (II)

[0193] Table 2 shows the results of each evaluation test.

[0194] [Table 2]

[0195] The integrated encapsulating sheets according to each example passed both the coefficient of variation of the L* value after mounting and the luminance transmittance. On the other hand, the integrated encapsulating sheets according to each comparative example failed the coefficient of variation of the L* value after mounting or the luminance transmittance. Therefore, the integrated encapsulating sheet according to the present application was able to achieve both high uniformity of blackness in a light-emitting electronic component and suppression of color unevenness during light emission.
