[0002] In the fields of automobile and electronic component manufacturing, there is a growing demand for recycling, which involves disassembling and recovering parts after use. To meet this demand, adhesives that can bond materials together during the manufacturing process of automobiles and electronic components, while also possessing a certain degree of release properties when the parts are disassembled, are sometimes used.
[0003] As an adhesive that achieves the above-mentioned peelability, an adhesive that can be peeled off by applying a voltage to the adhesive layer (electro-peelable adhesive) is known. For example, Patent Document 1 describes an electro-peelable adhesive comprising a thermosetting resin precursor, a curing agent, an electrolyte, and a filler, wherein the thermal conductivity after curing is 1.0 W / m·K or higher. In the electro-peelable adhesive of Patent Document 1, the adhesive strength weakens when a voltage is applied, allowing it to be peeled off. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0012] <� <Two-component Adhesive Composition> The two-component adhesive composition of the present invention comprises at least one component comprising a first component containing at least one non-aromatic epoxy compound selected from aliphatic epoxy compounds having a hydroxyl group and two or more epoxy groups and cyclohexene oxide epoxy compounds, an aromatic epoxy compound, rubber particles, and an ionic liquid, and a second component containing at least one curing agent selected from amines having two or more amino groups in their molecule, acid anhydride curing agents, phenolic curing agents, mercaptan curing agents, and polysulfide curing agents. Polymerization is initiated and curing occurs when the first component and the second component are mixed. Hereinafter, the mixture obtained by mixing the first component and the second component before curing will also be referred to as the "adhesive".
[0013] (Non-aromatic epoxy compounds) Aliphatic epoxy compounds having a hydroxyl group and two or more epoxy groups, and cyclohexene oxide-based epoxy compounds are collectively referred to as "non-aromatic epoxy compounds." Aliphatic epoxy compounds having a hydroxyl group and two or more epoxy groups (also called epoxy compounds having a hydroxyl group) include aliphatic polyol polyglycidyl ethers and hydroxyaliphatic carboxylic acid polyglycidyl esters. "Aliphatic polyol" is an aliphatic compound having two or more hydroxyl groups. The aliphatic portion may further have substituents other than hydroxyl groups. Examples of such substituents include alkoxy groups having 1 to 6 carbon atoms. Examples of aliphatic polyols include alkyl polyols. The alkyl in alkyl polyols is preferably alkyl with 3 to 30 carbon atoms, and more preferably alkyl with 3 to 16 carbon atoms. The alkyl may be linear or branched, and may have substituents other than hydroxyl groups, similar to the aliphatic compounds described above. In this specification, "polyglycidyl ether" means two or more glycidyl ethers, and examples include diglycidyl ether, triglycidyl ether, tetraglycidyl ether, pentaglycidyl ether, etc. Examples of alkyl polyol polyglycidyl ethers include glycerol polyglycidyl ether, trimethylolpropane polyglycidyl ether, trimethylolethane polyglycidyl ether, pentaerythritol polyglycidyl ether, diglycerol polyglycidyl ether, polyglycerol polyglycidyl ether, castor oil modified polyglycidyl ether, propoxylated glycerol triglycidyl ether, and sorbitol polyglycidyl ether. Among these, sorbitol polyglycidyl ether is preferred, sorbitol polyglycidyl ether with an epoxy equivalent of 143 to 234 g / eq is more preferred, and sorbitol polyglycidyl ether with an epoxy equivalent of 173 g / eq is particularly preferred. In this specification, "equivalent" means the value obtained by dividing the molecular weight by the number of corresponding functional groups. For example, the epoxy equivalent (hereinafter also referred to as EEW) is the value obtained by dividing the molecular weight of the epoxy compound by the number of epoxy groups contained in the epoxy compound. A commercially available product is Denacol EX-614B (sorbitol polyglycidyl ether with an epoxy equivalent of 173 g / eq) (also known as EX-614B), provided by Nagase ChemteX Corporation.
[0014] Examples of hydroxyaliphatic carboxylic acid polyglycidyl esters include hydroxyaliphatic carboxylic acid polyglycidyl esters containing two or more carboxyl groups, with hydroxyalkyl carboxylic acid polyglycidyl esters containing two or more carboxyl groups being preferred. "Polyglycidyl ester" means two or more glycidyl esters, and examples include diglycidyl esters, triglycidyl esters, tetratriglycidyl esters, etc. As for the alkyl of the hydroxyalkyl carboxylic acid, alkyls having 2 to 30 carbon atoms are preferred, and alkyls having 2 to 16 carbon atoms are more preferred. The alkyl may be linear or branched, and may further have substituents other than hydroxyl and carboxyl groups. Examples of such substituents include alkoxy groups having 1 to 6 carbon atoms. Examples of hydroxyalkyl carboxylic acid polyglycidyl esters containing two or more carboxyl groups include dihydroxydicarboxylic acid polyglycidyl ester of tartaric acid, monohydroxytricarboxylic acid polyglycidyl ester of citric acid, trihydroxyglutaric acid polyglycidyl ester, polyhydroxydicarboxylic acid polyglycidyl ester of saccharic acid, and monohydroxydicarboxylic acid polyglycidyl ester of malic acid.
[0015] When the non-aromatic epoxy compound contains only epoxy compounds having hydroxyl groups, the content of the epoxy compound having hydroxyl groups in the first component may be, for example, 30% to 70% by weight, preferably 33% to 68% by weight, relative to 100% by weight of the first component. Also, relative to 100% by weight of the total of the first and second components, it may be, for example, 27% to 66% by weight, preferably 29% to 64% by weight. Furthermore, relative to 100% by weight of the total of the epoxy compound having hydroxyl groups and the aromatic epoxy compound, the content of the epoxy compound having hydroxyl groups may be, for example, 60% to 95% by weight, preferably 61% to 93.5% by weight, and even more preferably 62% to 92.5% by weight. It is believed that the presence of epoxy compounds having hydroxyl groups, which are polar groups, in such a certain proportion as described above makes it easier for current to flow when a voltage is applied to the cured product of the two-component adhesive composition.
[0016] In addition to or instead of the above-mentioned epoxy compounds having a hydroxyl group, cyclohexene oxide epoxy compounds can be used. Examples of cyclohexene oxide epoxy compounds include 3,4-epoxycyclohexylmethyl 3,4-epoxycyclohexanecarboxylate and bis[(3,4-epoxycyclohexyl)methyl]adipate. If the non-aromatic epoxy compound contains only cyclohexene oxide epoxy compounds, the content of the cyclohexene oxide epoxy compounds is the same as the content of the epoxy compounds having hydroxyl groups described above. If the first agent contains both epoxy compounds having hydroxyl groups and cyclohexene oxide epoxy compounds, the sum of the content of both is considered the content of the non-aromatic epoxy compound. This content is the same as the content of the epoxy compounds having hydroxyl groups described above.
[0017] (Aromatic epoxy compounds) Aromatic epoxy compounds are compounds having at least two epoxy groups and at least one aromatic ring in their molecule. Examples of aromatic epoxy compounds include phenol-type epoxy compounds and aromatic carboxylic acid glycidyl esters. Phenolic epoxy compounds are compounds having at least two epoxy groups and a phenol skeleton in their molecule. Phenolic epoxy compounds preferably contain two or more phenol skeletons in their molecule, and examples include bisphenol-type epoxy compounds, biphenyl-type epoxy compounds, phenol novolac-type epoxy compounds, cresol novolac-type epoxy compounds, bisphenol A novolac-type epoxy compounds, and glycidyl ether-type epoxy resins such as other polyfunctional phenol-type epoxy resins. Among these, bisphenol-type epoxy compounds are preferred. Examples of bisphenol-type epoxy compounds include bisphenol A-type epoxy compounds, bisphenol F-type epoxy compounds, bisphenol AD-type epoxy compounds, and bisphenol S-type epoxy compounds. Among these, bisphenol A type epoxy compounds are preferred, bisphenol A type epoxy compounds with an EEW of 245 to 330 g / eq are more preferred, and bisphenol A type epoxy compounds with an EEW of approximately 301 g / eq are particularly preferred. The aromatic epoxy compound may also be in the form of a solution in which rubber particles described later are dispersed or dissolved, i.e., a rubber particle dispersion described later.
[0018] As aromatic carboxylic acid glycidyl esters, glycidyl esters having 6 or more carbon atoms and a divalent or greater aromatic ring are preferred, and examples include diglycidyl phthalate, diglycidyl isophthalate, diglycidyl terephthalate, and triglycidyl trimellitic acid.
[0019] The content of the aromatic epoxy compound in the first agent is, for example, 4% by weight or more and less than 25% by weight, preferably 5% by weight or more and 24% by weight or less, based on 100% by weight of the first agent. Also, the content of the aromatic epoxy compound relative to 100% by weight of the total of the first and second agents is, for example, 3% by weight or more and less than 23.5% by weight, preferably 4% by weight or more and 23% by weight or less. Furthermore, relative to 100% by weight of the total of the non-aromatic epoxy compound and the aromatic epoxy compound, the content of the aromatic epoxy compound is, for example, 5% by weight or more and 40% by weight or less, preferably 6.5% by weight or more and 39% by weight or less, and more preferably 7.5% by weight or more and 38% by weight or less. The proportion of the aromatic epoxy compound relative to 100% by weight of the rubber particle dispersion described later is, for example, greater than 55% by weight and 75% by weight or less, preferably 60% by weight or more and 70% by weight or less.
[0020] The total content of non-aromatic epoxy compounds and aromatic epoxy compounds in the first agent is, for example, 50% to 80% by weight, preferably 52% to 75% by weight, based on 100% by weight of the first agent.
[0021] (rubber particles) The rubber particles may contain or consist of a polymer having rubber elasticity. The rubber particles may also be core-shell type particles. A core-shell type particle is a particle having a core portion containing or consisting of a polymer having rubber elasticity, and a shell layer covering the core portion. The shell layer may be one layer or two or more layers. Core-shell type particles are preferred as rubber particles. The shell layer preferably contains a polymer different from the core portion. In this specification, core-shell type particles having a core portion made of a polymer having rubber elasticity are also referred to as "core-shell type rubber particles." Examples of polymers for the core portion of core-shell type rubber particles include diene-based rubber-like polymers, silicone-based rubber-like polymers, aromatic vinyl-based rubber-like polymers, and vinyl cyanide-based rubber-like polymers. Among these, diene-based rubber-like polymers are preferred. Examples of diene-based rubber-like polymers include polymers of butadiene, isoprene, and / or chloroprene. Among these, polymers of butadiene are preferred, polybutadiene is more preferred, and cross-linked butadiene rubber is particularly preferred. Examples of polymers for the shell layer of core-shell type rubber particles include polymers obtained by polymerizing at least one monomer selected from acrylic acid ester monomers, methacrylic acid ester monomers, and aromatic vinyl monomers, or silicone resin. From the viewpoint of compatibility with epoxy compounds, acrylic copolymers are preferred as the polymer for the shell layer. More preferably, the rubber particles are core-shell type rubber particles having a core made of crosslinked butadiene rubber and a shell layer made of an acrylic copolymer.
[0022] Core-shell type rubber particles, in which the core is a diene-based rubbery polymer, can be used in the form of a fine powder. In this case, it is desirable to disperse the fine powder of the core-shell type rubber particles as uniformly as possible in the epoxy compound to prevent the formation of aggregates or clumps. Alternatively, a rubber particle dispersion may be prepared by pre-dispersing core-shell type rubber particles, in which the core is a diene-based rubbery polymer, in an epoxy compound, and this rubber particle dispersion may be used by blending it with other epoxy compounds. In the rubber particle dispersion, the epoxy compound for dispersing the core-shell type rubber particles, in which the core is a diene-based rubbery polymer, is preferably liquid at 25°C. Examples of such epoxy compounds include epoxy compounds having hydroxyl groups and aromatic epoxy compounds. Among these, aromatic epoxy compounds are preferred, and bisphenol A type epoxy compounds are even more preferred. The content of the diene-based rubbery polymer per 100% by weight of the rubbery particle dispersion is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 25% by weight or more and less than 45% by weight, preferably 30% by weight or more and 40% by weight or less.
[0023] Examples of commercially available rubber particle dispersions include the Kaneka MX series (e.g., MX-150, MX-153, MX-257, MX-154) manufactured by Kaneka Corporation. Among these, Kaneka MX-154 (bisphenol A type epoxy dispersion with a core-shell rubber particle concentration of 40% by weight) (also known as MX-154) is preferred.
[0024] The average particle size of the rubber particles is preferably 1 nm to 300 nm in volume average particle diameter, more preferably 20 nm to 200 nm, and particularly preferably 50 nm to 150 nm. The volume average particle diameter can be measured using a NanoTrac particle size distribution analyzer (Nikkiso Co., Ltd.).
[0025] With respect to 100% by weight of the first agent, the upper limit of the rubber particle content in the first agent may be, for example, 18% by weight, 16% by weight, 13% by weight, or 10% by weight, and the lower limit may be, for example, 2% by weight, 3% by weight, 5% by weight, or 7% by weight. The upper and lower limit values can be combined arbitrarily. Possible combinations include, for example, 2% by weight or more and 18% by weight or less, 3% by weight or more and 16% by weight or less, and preferably 3.5% by weight or more and 13% by weight or less. The upper limit of the rubber particle content, relative to 100% by weight of the total of the first and second agents, may be, for example, 17%, 15%, 12.5%, or 9.5% by weight, and the lower limit may be 1.5%, 2.5%, 4.5%, or 6.0% by weight. The upper and lower limit values can be combined arbitrarily. For example, a combination of 1.5% to 17% by weight is preferred, preferably 2.5% to 15% by weight, and more preferably 4.5% to 12.5% by weight. The presence of rubber particles in the composition at a certain ratio can increase the adhesive strength of the cured product before application.
[0026] (Ionic liquid) Ionic liquids are salts that contain cations and anions and are liquid at room temperature; they are also called room-temperature molten salts. Ionic liquids possess properties such as non-flammability, non-volatility, and chemical stability. In the present invention, the ionic liquid is 10 -4 S / cm or more 10 -1 It has an ionic conductivity of S / cm or less. Having an ionic conductivity within this range allows the adhesive composition to be sufficiently imparted with the property of being peeled off by the application of voltage. The ionic conductivity is 10 -3 S / cm or more 10 -1 It is more preferable that the ionic conductivity is less than or equal to S / cm. The ionic conductivity can be measured by the AC impedance method using, for example, a Solartron 1260 frequency response analyzer.

For example, even if the adhesive composition of the present invention does not contain a filler (especially a non-conductive filler), insufficient adhesive properties or viscosity problems will not occur.
[0044] (Corrosion inhibitor) The first component of the adhesive composition of the present invention may optionally contain a corrosion inhibitor for the purpose of suppressing metal corrosion. The corrosion inhibitor is useful when the metal is a conductive adherend. The corrosion inhibitor is not particularly limited, and known corrosion inhibitors can be used. Examples include carbodiimide compounds, adsorption-type inhibitors, and chelate-forming metal deactivators. These can be used alone or in combination of two or more corrosion inhibitors.
[0045] Examples of carbodiimide compounds include 1-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-3-ethylcarbodiimide, 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, N,N'-diisopropylcarbodiimide, 1-ethyl-3-tert-butylcarbodiimide, N-cyclohexyl-N'-(2-morpholinoethyl)carbodiimide, N,N'-di-tert-butylcarbodiimide, 1,3-bis(p-tolyl)carbodiimide, and polycarbodiimide resins using these as monomers. These carbodiimide compounds can be used individually or in combination of two or more. When a carbodiimide compound is included in the first agent, the content is, for example, 0.01 parts by weight or more and 20 parts by weight or less per 100 parts by weight of the total of each epoxy compound.
[0046] Examples of adsorption-type inhibitors include compounds having polar groups centered around atoms with high electronegativity, such as O, N, and S, and nonpolar groups centered around C and H. Adsorption-type inhibitors may include, for example, alkylamines, carboxylates, carboxylic acid derivatives, and alkyl phosphates. Adsorption-type inhibitors can be used alone or in combination of two or more. When the first agent contains an adsorption-type inhibitor, the content is, for example, 0.01 parts by mass or more and 20 parts by mass or less, per 100 parts by mass of the total of each epoxy compound in the first agent.
[0047] Examples of chelate-forming metal deactivators include triazole group-containing compounds or benzotriazole group-containing compounds. These compounds have a high deactivating effect on the surface of metals such as stainless steel and aluminum, and do not significantly affect adhesion when included in adhesive components. Chelate-forming metal deactivators can be used alone or in combination of two or more. When a chelate-forming metal deactivator is included in the first agent, the content is, for example, 0.01 parts by mass or more and 20 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the total of each epoxy compound.
[0048] When a corrosion inhibitor is included in the first agent, the total content is preferably 0.01 parts by mass or more and 30 parts by mass or less, based on 100 parts by mass of the total of each epoxy compound.
[0049] A preferred two-component adhesive composition is, for example, an alkyl polyol polyglycidyl ether, a bisphenol-type epoxy compound, a cation selected from pyridinium-based cations and imidazolium-based cations, and (FSO2)2N - and (CF3SO2)2N - It consists of a first agent comprising an ionic liquid containing an anion selected from and core-shell type rubber particles, and a second agent comprising a polyamine compound having an alkyl main chain with 2 to 12 carbon atoms.
[0050] (Method for producing a two-component adhesive composition) The method for producing a two-component adhesive composition is not particularly limited. For example, the first component can be produced by appropriately stirring a non-aromatic epoxy compound, an aromatic epoxy compound, rubber particles, an ionic liquid, and other additives as needed, using a known method. Stirring is preferably carried out using a rotation-and-revolving mixer. A rotation-and-revolving mixer is a machine that stirs the materials in a container by tilting the container containing the materials and causing the container to rotate and revolve at high speed. By using this mixer, the first component can be stirred more uniformly. The second component may be an amine-based curing agent itself. If the second component further contains other additives, the second component can be produced by appropriately stirring the amine-based curing agent and the other additives using a known method.
[0051] (Uses of two-component adhesive compositions) The two-component adhesive composition of the present invention can be used to bond solid objects of various materials and shapes. Bonding can be performed by first mixing the first and second components to prepare an adhesive, then applying the adhesive to the object, and finally curing the adhesive. The adhesive prepared from the two-component adhesive composition of the present invention can be used in the same way as conventional one-component epoxy adhesives. Details of the method for curing the adhesive will be described later. The shape of the object to be bonded is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, film, plate, rod, mesh, fibrous, etc. The material of the object may be either conductive or non-conductive. When electrolytically peeling off the cured product, the two-component adhesive composition of the present invention is used for bonding conductive objects. By attaching a conductive auxiliary material to a non-conductive object, the non-conductive object can also be indirectly electrolytically peeled off via the conductive auxiliary material. Any adhesive or tack (collectively referred to as "adhesive") can be used to attach the conductive auxiliary material. Examples of conductive materials include metals such as iron, aluminum, copper, silver, and gold, as well as alloys of these metals and conductive resins. Examples of non-conductive materials include resins, glass, ceramics, paper, cloth, fibers, wood, and bamboo. Examples of conductive auxiliary materials include plates, films, and meshes made of conductive materials.
[0052] Once the two-component adhesive composition of the present invention has cured, the cured material can be easily peeled off by applying a voltage. Therefore, the two-component adhesive composition of the present invention can be suitably used for bonding opaque materials that cannot be subjected to UV irradiation, or materials that are sensitive to heat. Furthermore, the two-component adhesive composition of the present invention can be suitably used for fixing materials that require high processing accuracy, or for fixing materials that are difficult to physically fix, such as thin metal plates or substrates. For example, the two-component adhesive composition of the present invention can be used for temporary fixing of components in the electronic component manufacturing process (for example, temporary fixing of wafers during dicing of LSI chips). The temporary fixing can be easily released by applying a voltage to the cured material.
[0053] The two-component adhesive composition of the present invention is also useful from the viewpoint of recycling and reuse. For example, products such as automobiles, home appliances, mobile phones, and PCs may contain parts with high scarcity value, parts that need to be safely recovered, and parts that need to be reused. If such parts are fixed in the product with the two-component adhesive composition of the present invention, the fixed parts can be easily recovered by applying a voltage to the fixed parts after the product has been discarded and recovered. Another application is the bonding of sensors to conductive objects. In this application as well, the sensors can be easily recovered by detaching them by applying a low voltage, and the sensors can be reused repeatedly, making it economical.
[0054] <Curing method for two-component adhesive compositions> In the curing method for the two-component adhesive composition of the present invention, first, a mixture (i.e., adhesive) is obtained by appropriately mixing the first and second components of the two-component adhesive composition using a known method. The components of the first and second components are as described above. Next, the obtained adhesive is cured by curing at room temperature or by heating. From the viewpoint of shortening the curing time, it is preferable to cure the adhesive by heating. As an example of the method for curing the adhesive, first, the adhesive is applied to at least a part of the surface of the first conductor, and the surface of the second conductor is brought into contact with the applied surface and overlapped to form a composite. Next, the adhesive is cured by curing the formed composite at room temperature or by heating. The thickness of the applied adhesive layer is not particularly limited and may be, for example, 0.01 mm or more and 10 mm or less. The method for heating the adhesive is not particularly limited and can be heated using known equipment such as a hot air circulation oven, an infrared heater, a heat gun, and a high-frequency induction heating device. The heating temperature is not particularly limited, but the upper limit may be, for example, less than 150°C, 120°C, and 100°C, and the lower limit may be, for example, 40°C, 50°C, 70°C, 80°C, and 90°C. If heated above 150°C, the reaction will proceed, but electrical delamination may not occur even when a voltage is applied. The heating time is not particularly limited, but the upper limit may be, for example, 24 hours, 18 hours, 12 hours, and 6 hours, and the lower limit may be 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, and 4 hours. If the heating time exceeds 24 hours, depending on the heating temperature, the reaction may proceed too much, resulting in decomposition or no reduction in adhesive strength even when a voltage is applied. If the heating time is less than 30 minutes, depending on the heating temperature, the reaction may not proceed and the adhesive may not harden. As for combinations of temperature and time in heating, for example, if the heating temperature is 50°C or higher and less than 80°C, the heating time may be longer than 2 hours and 24 hours or less. When the heating temperature is 80°C or higher but less than 120°C, the heating time may be longer than 1 hour but 2 hours or less. When the heating temperature is 120°C or higher but less than 150°C, the heating time may be 30 minutes or more but 1 hour or less. When curing at room temperature, the temperature is, for example, 10°C to 40°C, preferably 15°C to 40°C. When curing at room temperature, the time is, for example, 24 hours or more but 120 hours or less.
[0055] <Electrorelease cured product> The electropenetrating cured product of the present invention (hereinafter also simply referred to as "cured product") is a substance obtained by curing an adhesive prepared from the two-component adhesive composition of the present invention. The curing of the adhesive is as described in the curing method above. Preferably, the cured product is formed between the surface of the first conductor and the surface of the second conductor. This allows the first conductor and the second conductor to be bonded together via the cured product. The materials of the first and second conductors are the same as those of the conductive objects described above. The materials of the first and second conductors may be the same or different.
[0056] The method for bonding the first conductor and the second conductor is as described in the curing method above. The thickness of the cured layer is not particularly limited and may be, for example, 0.01 mm or more and 10 mm or less. The adhesive strength of the electropeelable cured product of the present invention before application is not particularly limited, but is, for example, 1.0 MPa or more, preferably 1.5 MPa or more, more preferably 3 MPa or more, and even more preferably 5 MPa or more. The method for measuring the adhesive strength of the cured product is as described in the examples below.
[0057] <Method for removing electrolyzable cured materials> The present invention relates to a method for removing an electropeelable cured product, which involves applying a voltage to an electropeelable cured product in a composite in which a first conductor and a second conductor are bonded together via the electropeelable cured product. The application of voltage significantly reduces the adhesive strength of the electropeelable cured product, allowing it to be easily removed from the conductors. The removal itself can be performed, for example, by peeling the conductors off with one's hands or a suitable tool. Referring to Figure 1A, the application of voltage to the electropeelable cured product 2 can be performed, for example, by connecting the terminals of a wire with terminals connected to a DC power supply 4 to the first conductor 1 and the second conductor 3, respectively, and then starting the power supply. Referring to Figure 1B, the application of voltage energizes the electropeelable cured product 2 through the first conductor 1 and the second conductor 3, allowing the electropeelable cured product 2 to be removed from the conductors. In the example in Figure 1B, the electropeelable cured product is removed from the first conductor, but the present invention is not limited to this example. In electrolytically cured materials to which voltage is applied, the adhesive strength decreases and peeling occurs mainly from the positive electrode side. However, whether the cured material peels from the first or second conductor depends on how the force applied for peeling is handled, etc.
[0058] The electropeelable cured product of the present invention can achieve electropeelability at low voltages, but this does not preclude its use at high voltages. The range of applied voltage can be determined by selecting an upper limit from, for example, 500V, 450V, 400V, 350V, 300V, 250V, 200V, 150V, 100V, 90V, 80V, 70V, 60V, and 50V, and a lower limit from 0.5V, 1V, 2V, 3V, 4V, 5V, 6V, 7V, 8V, 9V, and 10V. The range of applied voltage is preferably 1V to 200V, more preferably 20V to 120V, and even more preferably 30V to 100V. The voltage application time is not particularly limited as long as it can cause electrolysis in the composite, but is usually 1 second to 1200 seconds, preferably 1 second to 600 seconds, more preferably 1 second to 300 seconds, even more preferably 1 second to 180 seconds, particularly preferably 1 second to 120 seconds, and particularly more preferably 30 seconds to 90 seconds. A combination of voltage and application time is, for example, 1V to 200V for 1 second to 1200 seconds, preferably 30V to 100V for 30 seconds to 90 seconds. The reduction in adhesive strength after application of the electropenetrating cured product of the present invention is, for example, 50% or more, preferably 60% or more, more preferably 70% or more, and particularly preferably 80% or more. The definition of the reduction in adhesive strength after application will be explained in the examples.
[0059] When bonding a non-conductive object and a conductive object using the adhesive composition of the present invention, the bonding can be done indirectly via a conductive auxiliary material, as described above. For example, referring to Figure 2A, first, the first conductor 1 is attached to the non-conductive object 5 as a conductive auxiliary material. The attachment is done using an adhesive 6. Then, the attached conductive auxiliary material (first conductor 1) and the second conductor 3 are bonded together using the adhesive composition of the present invention to form a cured product. As a result, the non-conductive object 5 and the second conductor 3 are bonded together via the conductive auxiliary material and the electropenetrating cured product 2, forming a composite. When peeling off the electropenetrating cured product 2 from this composite, the terminals of a wire with terminals connected to a DC power supply 4 are connected to the conductive auxiliary material (first conductor 1) and the second conductor 3, respectively, to form a circuit. Referring to Figure 2B, by applying a voltage, current is passed through the conductive auxiliary material (first conductor 1) and the second conductor 3 to the electropeelable cured product 2, allowing the electropeelable cured product 2 to be peeled off from the conductor.
[0060] In a composite formed by bonding a non-conductive object and a conductive object, the electropenetrating cured product can also be peeled off by using a second conductor as a conductive auxiliary material. Referring to Figure 3A, first, the second conductor 3 is attached to the non-conductive object 5 as a conductive auxiliary material. The attachment is done using adhesive 6. Then, the attached conductive auxiliary material (second conductor 3) and the first conductor 1 are bonded together using the adhesive composition of the present invention to form a cured product. As a result, the non-conductive object 5 and the first conductor 1 are bonded together via the conductive auxiliary material and the electropenetrating cured product 2, forming a composite. To peel off the electropenetrating cured product 2 in this composite, the terminals of a wire with terminals connected to a DC power supply 4 are connected to the conductive auxiliary material (second conductor 3) and the first conductor 1, respectively, to form a circuit. Referring to Figure 3B, by applying a voltage, current is passed through the conductive auxiliary material (second conductor 3) and the first conductor 1 to the electropeelable cured product 2, allowing the electropeelable cured product 2 to be peeled off from the conductor.
[0061] In a composite formed by bonding non-conductive objects using both the first and second conductors as conductive auxiliary materials, the electropenetrating cured product can also be peeled off. Referring to Figure 4A, first, the first conductor 1 and the second conductor 3 are attached to the non-conductive objects 5 and 5', respectively, as conductive auxiliary materials. The attachment is done using adhesive 6. Then, the first conductor 1 and the second conductor 3, which have been attached as conductive auxiliary materials, are bonded together using the adhesive composition of the present invention to form a cured product. As a result, the non-conductive objects 5 and 5' are bonded together via the first conductor 1, the electropenetrating cured product 2, and the second conductor 3, forming a composite. To peel off the electropenetrating cured product 2 in this composite, terminals of a wire with terminals connected to a DC power supply 4 are connected to each of the first conductor 1 and the second conductor 3, which are conductive auxiliary materials, to form a circuit. Referring to Figure 4B, by applying a voltage, current is passed through the first conductor 1 and the second conductor 3 to the electropeelable cured product 2, allowing the electropeelable cured product 2 to be peeled off from the conductors.
[0062] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. [Examples]
[0063] <Preparation of a two-component adhesive composition> [Example 1] Ten parts by weight of EMI-FSI (Daiichi Kogyo Seiyaku Co., Ltd.) and ten parts by weight of MX-154 (Kaneka Corporation) were added to a container for a rotary-orbit mixer. The mixture was then uniformly stirred at room temperature using a rotary-orbit mixer (Awatori Rentaro, AR-100, Shinki Co., Ltd.). After that, ten parts by weight of EX-614B (Nagase ChemteX Corporation) were added and stirred further to obtain 30 parts by weight of the first component. Two parts by weight of TETA (Tokyo Chemical Industries, Ltd.) were used as the second component. [Comparative Example 1] EX-614B was used as the first component at 100 parts by weight, and TETA was used as the second component at 10 parts by weight.
[0064] <Adhesive strength test> Each weight of the first agent obtained in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 was added to a beaker, and each weight of the second agent obtained in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 was added and stirred with a stirrer to obtain the adhesives of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1. The adhesive was applied to the longitudinal edge of a 75 mm × 25 mm, 1.0 mm thick aluminum plate that had been degreased with acetone, so that the bonding area was 25 mm × 12.5 mm and the adhesive layer was 0.16 mm thick. The longitudinal edge of another aluminum plate of the same size was bonded to the adhesive-coated surface. The bonded aluminum plates were heated in an oven (VO-320, Advantec Co., Ltd.) at 120°C for 1 hour to obtain a composite (also called a test specimen) (see Figure 5A). The adhesive strength of the test specimen was measured using a tensile testing machine (5582, Instron Japan Co., Ltd.) at 23°C and 50% RH at a tensile speed of 1 mm / min, as per JIS K6850 (1999). The measurement results are summarized in Table 1 as the adhesive strength before application.
[0065] <Electropeel test> Test specimens were prepared using each adhesive in the same manner as in the adhesive strength test described above. Electrodes were attached to both ends of the longitudinal direction of each test specimen (see Figure 5B). A voltage of 100V or 30V was applied to each test specimen for 60 seconds under conditions of 23°C and 50%RH. The adhesive strength of the test specimens after application was measured in the same manner as in the adhesive strength test described above. The measurement results are shown in Table 1. The percentage decrease in adhesive strength is also shown in these tables. The percentage decrease in adhesive strength was calculated by dividing the difference between the adhesive strength before application and the adhesive strength after application by the adhesive strength before application. In the "Electropeelability" column of each table, "A" was written if the percentage decrease in adhesive strength was 80% or more, "B" was written if the percentage decrease was 50% or more, and "C" was written if the percentage decrease was less than 50%. Cases with a percentage decrease in adhesive strength after application of 50% or more were designated as examples.
[0066] [Table 1]
[0067] Referring to the results of Example 1, the adhesive strength before application was 3.00 MPa, indicating good adhesion. After application at 30 V for 60 seconds and at 100 V for 60 seconds, the adhesive strength was 0.27 MPa (decrease rate 91%) and 0.35 MPa (decrease rate 88%), respectively, and the peelability of the cured product was also very good. This suggests that electrolysis can be performed at a voltage of at least 30 V to 100 V. On the other hand, referring to the results of Comparative Example 1, the adhesive strength before application was 6.81 MPa, but no current was conducted even when voltage was applied. This suggests that current will not be conducted unless an ionic liquid is added.
[0068] <Preparation of a two-component adhesive composition> [Example 2] 12 parts by weight of EMI-FSI and 10 parts by weight of MX-154 were added to a container for a rotational-orbital mixer, and the mixture was uniformly stirred at room temperature using the rotational-orbital mixer. Then, 30 parts by weight of EX-614B was added and stirred further to obtain 52 parts by weight of the first component. 4 parts by weight of TETA was used as the second component. [Example 3] The first component was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2, except that 24 parts by weight of EMI-FSI were added instead of 12 parts by weight, and 70 parts by weight of EX-614B were added instead of 30 parts by weight. 8.4 parts by weight of TETA was used as the second component. [Example 4] The first component was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2, except that 15 parts by weight of EMI-FSI were added instead of 12 parts by weight, and 20 parts by weight of MX-154 were added instead of 10 parts by weight. 4.7 parts by weight of TETA was used as the second component. [Example 5] The first component was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2, except that 18 parts by weight of EMI-FSI were added instead of 12 parts by weight, and 30 parts by weight of MX-154 were added instead of 10 parts by weight. 6.7 parts by weight of TETA was used as the second component. [Comparative Example 2] The first agent was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2, except that instead of adding 30 parts by weight of EX-614B, 15 parts by weight of EX-614B and 15 parts by weight of JER828 (bisphenol A diglycidyl ether, Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation) were added. 52 parts by weight of the first agent was prepared. 4 parts by weight of TETA was used as the second agent. [Comparative Example 3] The first component was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2, except that instead of adding 30 parts by weight of EX-614B, 21 parts by weight of EX-614B and 9 parts by weight of JER828 were added. 4 parts by weight of TETA was used as the second component.
[0069] <Adhesive strength test> The adhesive strength of each test specimen was measured in the same manner as the adhesive strength test described above, except that the first and second agents obtained in Examples 2-5 were used instead of those in Examples 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3. The results are summarized in Table 2 as the adhesive strength before application.
[0070] <Electropeel test> The adhesive strength of each test specimen was measured after application, using the same procedure as the electropenetration test described above, except that the voltage application conditions were limited to 100V for 60 seconds. The measurement results are summarized in Table 2, which shows the adhesive strength after application. The evaluation criteria for electropenetration were the same as described above.
[0071] [Table 2]
[0072] Referring to Example 2, the adhesive strength before application was 7.32 MPa, which is good adhesive strength and approximately 2.5 times stronger than that of Example 1. The adhesive strength after application at 100V for 60 seconds was 0.69 MPa (a decrease of 91%), and the peelability of the cured product was also very good. In Examples 2-5 of Table 2, Example 2 had the highest pre-application adhesive strength, while Example 4 had the lowest. Even the lowest value, with an adhesive strength of 6.27 MPa, indicates good adhesive strength. Furthermore, in Examples 2-5 of Table 2, Example 5 had the lowest rate of decrease in adhesive strength after application, with a decrease of 59%, which was also a good result. The results in Table 2 suggest that the preferred range for the rubber content in the first agent is 2% to 18% by weight. Comparative Examples 2 and 3 reduced the proportion of EX-614B while increasing the proportion of JER828, a bisphenol A type epoxy. As a result, the decrease in adhesive strength after application was 10% and 13%, respectively, which did not reach the 50% decrease. Therefore, it was suggested that the proportion of bisphenol A type epoxy is also important in the present invention. Next, using the composition of Example 2, which had the highest pre-application strength and good electropeelability, as a baseline, experiments were conducted in which the amine-based curing agent of solution B was changed.
[0073] <Preparation of a two-component adhesive composition> [Example 6] 52 parts by weight of the first component were prepared in the same manner as in Example 2. 4 parts by weight of DBU (Tokyo Chemical Industries, Ltd.) were used as the second component. [Comparative Example 4] 52 parts by weight of the first component was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2. 4 parts by weight of DMA (N,N-dimethylaniline, Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) was used as the second component. [Comparative Example 5] 52 parts by weight of the first component were prepared in the same manner as in Example 2. 4 parts by weight of DBA (N,N-dibutylaniline, Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) were used as the second component. [Example 7] 52 parts by weight of the first agent was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2. 4 parts by weight of 2E4MZ-CN (Tokyo Chemical Industries, Ltd.) was used as the second agent.
[0074] <Adhesive strength test> Instead of the first and second agents used in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3, the first and second agents obtained in Examples 6 and 7 and Comparative Examples 4 and 5 were used. For the adhesion strength test in Example 7, the adhesion strength of the test specimens was measured in the same manner as described above. For the adhesion strength tests in Example 6, Comparative Examples 4 and 5, the adhesion strength of each test specimen was measured in the same manner as described above, except that the heating conditions were 120°C for 18 hours. These results are summarized in Table 3 as the adhesion strength before application.
[0075] <Electropeel test> The adhesive strength of each test specimen was measured after application, using the same procedure as described above, except that the voltage application conditions were limited to 100V for 60 seconds. The measurement results are summarized in Table 2, which shows the adhesive strength after application. The evaluation criteria for electropeelability are the same as described above.
[0076] [Table 3]
[0077] Referring to Example 6, the adhesive strength before application was 4.30 MPa, which is higher than the 3 MPa adhesive strength before application in Example 1, indicating good adhesion. Furthermore, the adhesive strength after application at 100V for 60 seconds was 1.26 MPa (decrease rate of 71%), indicating good peelability of the cured product. Comparative Examples 4 and 5 resulted in uncured products. This suggests that the curing reaction between epoxy and amine did not proceed. In Example 7, the reduction rate of adhesive strength after application was high at 86%, indicating good peelability of the cured product. The results in Table 3 suggest that some amine compounds cannot be used as curing agents. The results in Tables 1-3 suggest that TETA, 2E4MZ-CN, and DBU are amine-based curing agents with good reactivity with the first agent and good peelability of the cured product. Among these, TETA showed particularly good reactivity, suggesting that amine-based curing agents having two or more primary amino groups have particularly high reactivity. Next, the heating time was changed with the same composition as in Example 2.
[0078] <Preparation of a two-component adhesive composition> [Examples 8-10] The first and second components of Examples 8-10 were obtained with the same composition and weight as in Example 2. <Adhesive strength test> Instead of the first and second agents used in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3, the first and second agents obtained in Examples 8-10 were used. For the adhesive strength tests in Examples 8-10, the adhesive strength of each test piece was measured in the same manner as above, except that the heating conditions were the temperature and time listed in Table 4. These results are summarized in Table 4 as the adhesive strength before application.
[0079] <Electropeel test> The adhesive strength of each test specimen was measured after application, using the same procedure as the electropenetration test described above, except that the voltage application conditions were limited to 100V for 60 seconds. The measurement results are summarized in Table 4, which shows the adhesive strength after application. The evaluation criteria for electropenetration were the same as described above.
[0080] [Table 4]
[0081] Referring to Examples 8, 9, and 10, the pre-treatment adhesive strengths were 4.71 MPa, 4.88 MPa, and 5.54 MPa, respectively. The pre-treatment adhesive strength tended to increase with increasing heating temperature, and this was also suggested by the results of Example 2, which was heated at 120°C for 1 hour. Referring to Examples 8, 9, and 10, the reduction rate of adhesive strength after treatment was also 85% or more, indicating very good results. Based on the results of Example 2 and Examples 8, 9, and 10, it was suggested that the curing time decreased as the heating temperature increased. [Explanation of symbols]
