Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing a laminate suitable for flexible packaging materials used for packaging foods, medicines, cosmetics, detergents, miscellaneous goods, etc. [Background technology]
[0002] Two-component curing urethane adhesives used in flexible packaging materials for foods, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, detergents, miscellaneous goods, etc. have traditionally been available in solvent-based and solventless types, with solventless adhesives being preferred from the standpoint of environmental considerations such as eliminating the use of organic solvents and improving work efficiency by eliminating the need for a drying process. Solvent-free adhesives do not contain solvents and must have low viscosity in order to exhibit coatability, and typically contain low molecular weight polyols and polyisocyanates.
[0003] On the other hand, the structure of flexible packaging materials varies depending on the contents and the desired physical properties. In addition to two-layer structures in which two substrates are bonded together with an adhesive, multi-layer structures in which multiple substrates are bonded together with an adhesive are also commonly used. However, when a solventless adhesive is used to produce a composite film with a multilayer structure (e.g., a three-layer structure) by successively performing the first and second lamination processes, the laminated film formed in the first lamination process can peel off (hereinafter also referred to as delamination) when the adhesive is applied in the second lamination process, resulting in a defect in which air gets mixed in. Furthermore, in the second lamination process, slight misalignment occurs in the laminated film formed in the first lamination process, and this misalignment accumulates, resulting in a defect known as telescoping, in which the end of the roll becomes deformed into a bamboo shoot shape when the film is wound up in the second lamination process. This is presumably because, as mentioned above, the molecular weights of the polyol and polyisocyanate contained in the solventless adhesive are low, resulting in a low initial cohesive strength of the adhesive layer that is formed. Therefore, when manufacturing a three-layer laminate film using a solvent-free adhesive, it was necessary to carry out aging for a certain period of time or more between the first lamination process and the second lamination process to improve the cohesive strength of the adhesive layer formed in the first lamination process.
[0004] One possible way to solve this problem is to increase the curing speed of the adhesive to shorten the aging time. However, since solventless adhesives are generally produced by retaining a mixed solution of polyol and polyisocyanate on a roll and applying it to a substrate using a roll coater, if the curing speed is increased by adding a catalyst or the like to shorten the aging time, there are problems in that the pot life is significantly shortened and the adhesive thickens on the roll, causing a deterioration in appearance. To address the above-mentioned problems, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique in which a polyol and a polyisocyanate are applied to separate substrates and then bonded together. By applying the polyol and the polyisocyanate separately, the curing speed can be freely adjusted using additives and the like without having to consider the pot life issue.

[0005] [Patent Document 1] International Publication No. 2019 / 082683 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0006] However, the method described in Patent Document 1 cannot be applied to existing coating machines, requiring modification or the introduction of new equipment. Furthermore, while the method described in Patent Document 1 shortens the aging time, it does not solve the aforementioned problems of the laminated film formed in the first lamination step peeling off and air being mixed in when applying the adhesive in the second lamination step (also known as delamination), and the occurrence of telescoping, in which the end of the roll is deformed into a bamboo shoot shape when winding in the second lamination step. Therefore, it is currently difficult to produce a three-layer laminate by consecutively performing the first lamination step and the second lamination step. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a laminate that can perform a second lamination step consecutively after the first lamination step without aging, and that is free from delamination and telescoping. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] Another embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for producing the above-mentioned laminate, wherein the difference in viscosity between the first solvent-free adhesive and the second solvent-free adhesive at 60°C is 1,000 mPa·s or more.

[0015] According to the present invention, it is possible to carry out the second lamination step consecutively after the first lamination step without carrying out aging, and it is possible to provide a method for producing a laminate without delamination or telescoping. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0016] The present invention relates to a method for producing a laminate having a first substrate layer, a first adhesive layer, an intermediate substrate layer, a second adhesive layer, and a second substrate layer in this order, the method comprising: applying a first solventless adhesive containing a polyol (A1) and a polyisocyanate (B1) and having a viscosity of 50 to 6,000 mPa·s at 60°C onto the first substrate; and then pressing the first solventless adhesive onto the intermediate substrate to obtain an intermediate laminate having the first substrate layer, the first adhesive layer, and the intermediate substrate layer in this order. The method comprises a first step, and a second step of applying a second solvent-free adhesive containing a polyol (A2) and a polyisocyanate (B2) and having a viscosity of 50 to 5,000 mPa·s at 40°C to the intermediate substrate of the intermediate laminate obtained in the first step 1, followed by pressing the applied adhesive to a second substrate to obtain a laminate, wherein the difference in viscosity at 40°C between the first solvent-free adhesive and the second solvent-free adhesive is 2,000 mPa·s or more.
[0017] The present invention can solve the above problem by providing a first solvent-free adhesive having a viscosity of 50 to 6,000 mPa·s at 60°C, a second solvent-free adhesive having a viscosity of 50 to 5,000 mPa·s at 40°C, and a viscosity difference between the first and second solvent-free adhesives of 2,000 mPa·s or more.
[0018] First, the first solvent-free adhesive applied in the first step has a high viscosity of 50 to 6,000 mPa·s at 60°C, so it has a certain initial cohesive strength even in an uncured state. Therefore, if the second step is carried out without aging, it is possible to prevent the formed laminate film from peeling off and air from getting mixed in. On the other hand, if the second solvent-free adhesive is also as viscous and tacky as the first, when the second adhesive is applied using a roll coater and pressed onto the intermediate laminate, the intermediate laminate film will be momentarily removed from the coating roll, the initial cohesive force of the first adhesive layer will be lost, and the first substrate will peel away from the intermediate substrate, inducing air intrusion. Therefore, by making the viscosity of the second solvent-free adhesive 50 to 5,000 mPa·s at 40°C and by making the viscosity difference from the first solvent-free adhesive 2,000 mPa·s or more, it is possible to reduce tack on the coating roll and prevent the film from being removed. In addition, the initial cohesive force of the first adhesive is overcome by the tack of the second solvent-free adhesive on the roll, and the film is momentarily taken up onto the coating roll, causing slight misalignment in the intermediate laminate, even if it does not result in air being mixed in. If winding continues with this slight misalignment, telescoping problems will gradually occur. However, by making the difference in viscosity between the first and second solvent-free adhesives 2,000 mPa·s or more, slight misalignment in the intermediate laminate can be prevented, and telescoping can be suppressed. The present invention will be described in detail below.
[0019] <First and second solvent-free adhesives> The first solventless adhesive used in the present invention contains a polyol (A1) and a polyisocyanate (B1). It is important that the viscosity at 60°C is 50 to 6,000 mPa·s. Having a viscosity at 60°C within this range ensures that the adhesive has a certain initial cohesive strength even in an uncured state, and when the second step is carried out without aging, it is possible to prevent the first substrate and intermediate substrate in the formed laminated film from peeling off and air from being mixed in. The second solventless adhesive used in the present invention contains a polyol (A2) and a polyisocyanate (B2). Furthermore, it is important that the viscosity at 40°C is 50 to 5,000 mPa·s. Having a viscosity at 40°C within this range reduces tackiness on the coating roll, and when the second adhesive is applied by roll coating and pressure-bonded to the intermediate laminate, the intermediate laminate film is not momentarily removed from the coating roll. As a result, peeling between the first substrate and the intermediate substrate and air intrusion can be prevented.
[0020] The viscosity of the solventless adhesive in this specification refers to the viscosity measured within 10 minutes after mixing the polyol and polyisocyanate and heating the adhesive to 60°C or 40°C. The viscosity can be measured using a cone and plate viscometer in accordance with JIS K 5600-2-3:2014. The viscosity of the first solventless adhesive at 60°C is preferably in the range of 500 to 6,000 mPa·s, more preferably 1,000 to 5,500 mPa·s, and even more preferably 1,500 to 5,000 mPa·s. The viscosity of the second solventless adhesive at 40°C is preferably in the range of 300 to 3,000 mPa·s, and more preferably 500 to 2,000 mPa·s.
[0021] As mentioned above, it is important that the first solventless adhesive has a viscosity at 40°C that is at least 2,000 mPa·s higher than that of the second solventless adhesive. The difference in viscosity at 40°C is preferably 2,000 mPa·s or more and 25,000 mPa·s or less, and more preferably 4,500 to 20,000 mPa·s. The difference in viscosity between the first solvent-free adhesive at 60°C and the second solvent-free adhesive at 60°C is preferably 1,000 mPa·s or more. The difference in viscosity at 60°C is preferably 1,000 mPa·s or more and 6,000 mPa·s or less, more preferably 1,000 to 5,000 mPa·s. Such a difference in viscosity at 40°C and 60°C prevents film removal and prevents the first substrate from peeling off from the intermediate substrate, resulting in air getting mixed in. It also prevents slight misalignment of the intermediate laminate and suppresses telescoping. The viscosity of the first solventless adhesive at 40°C is preferably in the range of 4,000 to 25,000 mPa·s, and more preferably 6,000 to 22,000 mPa·s. The viscosity of the second solventless adhesive at 60°C is preferably in the range of 100 to 1000 mPa·s, and more preferably 100 to 600 mPa·s.
[0022] [Polyols (A1), (A2)] The polyols (A1) and (A2) may be compounds having two or more hydroxyl groups, and each may be independently selected from known polyols, such as polyester polyols, polycarbonate polyols, polycaprolactone polyols, polyvalerolactone polyols, polyether polyols, polyolefin polyols, polyurethane polyols, acrylic polyols, silicone polyols, castor oil-based polyols, fluorine-based polyols, and polyhydroxyalkanes. Furthermore, examples of the polyol that can be used include glycols such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol, 1,4-butanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, 3-methyl-5-pentanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, neopentyl glycol, methylpentane glycol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, bishydroxyethoxybenzene, 1,4-cyclohexanediol, 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol, and triethylene glycol; polyalkylene glycols having a number average molecular weight of 200 to 3,000; trifunctional or tetrafunctional aliphatic alcohols such as glycerin, trimethylolpropane, and pentaerythritol; and polyols in which the above-mentioned glycols or polyols are added to the above-mentioned trifunctional or tetrafunctional aliphatic alcohols. The polyols may be used singly or in combination of two or more. From the viewpoints of leveling ability and adhesive performance to a substrate, the polyols (A1) and (A2) are preferably polyester polyols or polyether polyols.

The above carboxyl group components and hydroxyl group components may be used singly or in combination of two or more.
[0024] The polyester polyol preferably has a number average molecular weight in the range of 100 to 5,000, more preferably 500 to 4,000. When the number average molecular weight is in the above range, fluidity is achieved at room temperature or by heating, which is preferable. The polyester polyol preferably has an acid value in the range of 0 to 5.0 mgKOH / g, more preferably 0 to 3.0 mgKOH / g, which is preferable because a rapid increase in viscosity after mixing the two liquids can be suppressed if the acid value is in the above range. The polyester polyol preferably has a hydroxyl group concentration in the range of 10 to 300 mgKOH / g, more preferably 30 to 200 mgKOH / g, since this range allows the number average molecular weight to be adjusted to a range suitable for use in solventless adhesives.
[0025] (Polyether polyol) Polyether polyols are compounds that contain two or more hydroxyl groups and two or more ether bonds in the molecule, including polyalkylene glycols such as polyethylene glycol, polytrimethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, polytetramethylene glycol, and polybutylene glycol; polyethylene glycol / polypropylene glycol block copolymers; and propylene oxide / ethylene oxide random polyethers. Alternatively, an addition polymer obtained by addition polymerization of an oxirane compound such as ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide, or tetrahydrofuran to a low molecular weight polyol such as water, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, trimethylolpropane, glycerin, sorbitol, or sucrose may be used as the polyether polyol. Examples of the addition polymer include propylene glycol propylene oxide adducts, glycerin propylene oxide adducts, sorbitol-based propylene oxide adducts, and sucrose-based propylene oxide adducts.
[0026] These polyols may be acid-modified polyols in which some of the hydroxyl groups in the polyol have been acid-modified, or may be polyols in which carboxyl groups have been introduced by reacting with an acid anhydride, or polyols in which urethane bonds have been introduced by reacting with a diisocyanate. Examples of the acid anhydrides include pyromellitic anhydride, mellitic anhydride, trimellitic anhydride, and trimellitic ester anhydrides. Examples of the trimellitic ester anhydrides include ethylene glycol bisanhydrotrimellitate and propylene glycol bisanhydrotrimellitate.

[0027] The viscosity of the polyols (A1) and (A2) is not particularly limited, as long as it is adjusted so that the viscosity of the first and second solventless adhesives obtained by mixing them with the polyisocyanates (B1) and (B2) described below falls within a predetermined range. To achieve the above ranges, the viscosity of polyol (A1) at 60°C may be in the range of 100 to 5,000 mPa·s or 500 to 4,000 mPa·s, and the viscosity of polyol (A2) at 40°C may be in the range of 50 to 3,000 mPa·s or 500 to 2,000 mPa·s.
[0028] [Polyisocyanates (B1), (B2)] The polyisocyanates (B1) and (B2) react with the polyols (A1) and (A2) to cure the adhesive. Examples of such polyisocyanates include, independently, aromatic isocyanate compounds, araliphatic isocyanate compounds, aliphatic isocyanate compounds, alicyclic polyisocyanate compounds, and modified products thereof.

Such other components may be blended with either the polyol or the polyisocyanate, or may be added when blending the polyol and the polyisocyanate. These other components may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0035] (Silane coupling agent) The first and second solventless adhesives may contain a silane coupling agent to improve adhesive strength to the substrate. Examples of the silane coupling agent include trialkoxysilanes having a vinyl group, such as vinyltriethoxysilane and vinyltriethoxysilane; trialkoxysilanes having an amino group, such as 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane; and trialkoxysilanes having a glycidyl group, such as 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 2-(3,4-epoxycyclohexyl)-ethyltrimethoxysilane and 3-glycidoxypropyltriethoxysilane. The content of the silane coupling agent is preferably 0.1 to 5 mass %, more preferably 0.2 to 3 mass %, based on the polyol (A1) or (A2). By setting it within this range, the adhesive strength to metal can be improved.
[0036] (phosphoric acid or phosphoric acid derivatives) The first and second solventless adhesives may contain phosphoric acid or a phosphoric acid derivative to improve adhesive strength to the substrate. The phosphoric acid may be any phosphoric acid having at least one free oxygen acid, such as hypophosphorous acid, phosphorous acid, orthophosphoric acid, or hypophosphoric acid; or condensed phosphoric acids such as metaphosphoric acid, pyrophosphoric acid, tripolyphosphoric acid, polyphosphoric acid, or ultraphosphoric acid. Phosphoric acid derivatives include, for example, phosphoric acids obtained by partially esterifying the above-mentioned phosphoric acids with alcohols while leaving at least one free oxygen acid. Examples of such alcohols include aliphatic alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, and glycerin; and aromatic alcohols such as phenol, xylenol, hydroquinone, catechol, and phloroglucinol. The content of phosphoric acid or a derivative thereof is preferably 0.001 to 10 mass %, more preferably 0.005 to 5 mass %, and particularly preferably 0.01 to 1 mass %, based on the mass of the first and second solventless adhesives.
[0037] (Leveling agent or defoaming agent) The first and second solventless adhesives may further contain a leveling agent or antifoaming agent to improve the appearance of the laminate.

[0038] (Other additives) The first and second solventless adhesives may contain various additives within the scope of the present invention, such as inorganic fillers such as silica, alumina, mica, talc, aluminum flakes, and glass flakes, layered inorganic compounds, stabilizers (antioxidants, heat stabilizers, UV absorbers, hydrolysis inhibitors, etc.), rust inhibitors, thickeners, plasticizers, antistatic agents, lubricants, antiblocking agents, colorants, fillers, and nucleating agents.
[0039] <Production of laminate> The method for producing a laminate of the present invention includes the following steps. First step: A step of applying the first solvent-free adhesive described above onto a first substrate, and then pressing it with an intermediate substrate to obtain an intermediate laminate having a first substrate layer, a first adhesive layer, and an intermediate substrate layer in that order. Second step: A step of applying the second solventless adhesive described above to the intermediate substrate of the intermediate laminate obtained in the first step 1, and then pressing it with a second substrate to obtain a laminate.
[0040] The method for applying the first or second solvent-free adhesive layer and pressing it onto another substrate is not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected from conventionally known lamination methods. However, since solvent-free adhesives have high viscosity, roll coating is generally the preferred application method. The thickness of the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer is not particularly limited, but each independently is preferably in the range of 0.5 to 3.5 μm, more preferably 1.0 to 2.5 μm. In particular, by setting the thickness of the first adhesive layer in the range of 1.0 to 2.5 μm, delamination and telescoping can be further suppressed.
[0041] The first and second steps may be carried out continuously in-line, or the second step may be carried out after a winding step. In either case, the manufacturing method of the present invention allows a multilayer laminate to be obtained without carrying out an aging step between the first and second steps.
[0042] Furthermore, if the roll coating temperature when applying the first solvent-free adhesive is T1° C. and the roll coating temperature when applying the second solvent-free adhesive is T2° C., then temperature T1 is preferably 50 to 90° C., more preferably 50 to 80° C., and even more preferably 60 to 80° C. By setting temperature T1 within the above range, the leveling properties of the adhesive are excellent and the cohesive force of the first adhesive is maintained, resulting in better telescoping prevention. The temperature T2 is preferably 30 to 70° C., more preferably 35 to 65° C., and even more preferably 40 to 60° C. By setting the temperature T2 within the above range, the leveling properties of the adhesive are excellent and the cohesive force of the second adhesive is maintained, resulting in better suppression of telescoping. T1 and T2 can be adjusted appropriately depending on the viscosity of the adhesive, the amount of application, etc., but are usually used such that T1>T2.
[0043] [First substrate] The first substrate may be a conventional plastic film commonly used for packaging materials. Examples of such plastic films include polyester resin films such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), and polylactic acid (PLA); polyolefin resin films such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP); polystyrene resin films; polyamide resin films such as nylon (NY) 6 and poly-p-xylylene adipamide (MXD6 nylon); polycarbonate resin films; polyacrylonitrile resin films; polyimide resin films; and composites or mixtures thereof (e.g., nylon 6 / MXD6 / nylon 6, nylon 6 / ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer / nylon 6). The thickness of the plastic film is preferably 5 to 50 μm. The first substrate may be a laminate of multiple such plastic films, or may be a vapor-deposited film having a vapor-deposited layer of a metal oxide such as silica or alumina, or may have a printed layer on the substrate.
[0044] The printed layer is a layer on which any desired printed pattern such as letters, numbers, pictures, figures, symbols, or designs is formed for decoration, indication of contents, expiration date, manufacturer, seller, or other indication or aesthetic purposes, and includes solid printed layers. The printed layer is generally formed using printing ink containing a colorant such as a pigment or dye. The method for forming the printed layer is not particularly limited, and examples include gravure coating, flexo coating, roll coating, bar coating, die coating, curtain coating, spin coating, and inkjet coating. The thickness of the printed layer is preferably 0.1 to 10 μm.
[0045] [Intermediate substrate] As the intermediate substrate, in addition to the plastic films listed above as the first substrate, metallized films, metal foils, etc. can be used. Examples of metallized films include aluminum-deposited films, and examples of metal foils include aluminum foils.
[0046] [Second substrate] As the second substrate, in addition to the substrates exemplified above as the first substrate and intermediate substrate, a sealant substrate can also be used. Examples of sealant base materials include polyethylene such as low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), acid-modified polyethylene, solid polypropylene (CPP), acid-modified polypropylene, copolymerized polypropylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer, ethylene-(meth)acrylic acid copolymer, and ionomer. The thickness of the sealant substrate is preferably 10 to 150 μm, taking into consideration processability into packaging materials, heat sealing properties, and the like. The first substrate, intermediate substrate, and second substrate may be a single layer or a laminate in which multiple layers are laminated. [Example]

[0086] <Preparation of laminate> [Example 1] Using a solventless adhesive laminator with the coating roll temperature set to 60°C, adhesive 1-1 was applied at a rate of 1.5 g / m onto a 12 μm thick, 600 mm wide polyethylene terephthalate film ("Ester Film E5102" manufactured by Toyobo Co., Ltd.). 2 The adhesive was applied at a coating speed of 150 m / min. Thereafter, the adhesive-coated surface was bonded to an aluminum foil having a thickness of 7 μm and a width of 600 mm (first step). Next, using a solventless adhesive laminator with the coating roll temperature set to 40°C, adhesive 2-1 was applied to the aluminum foil of the obtained laminate in an amount of 2.0 g / m 2 The adhesive was applied at a coating speed of 150 m / min. Thereafter, a 70 μm thick, 600 mm wide unstretched polypropylene film (Toray Industries, Inc., "Torayfan ZK207") was bonded to the adhesive-coated surface (second process). Approximately 4000 m of the laminate was produced by the above steps. The difference in viscosity between adhesive 1-1 and adhesive 2-1 at 40°C was 5,230 mPa·s, and the difference in viscosity at 60°C was 1,250 mPa·s.
[0087] [Example 2~ 8、10~ 17. Comparative Example 1] A laminate was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the adhesive, substrate, and coating conditions were changed as shown in Table 8. A 15 μm-thick nylon film ("Emblem ONBC" manufactured by Unitika Ltd.) was used as the intermediate substrate in Examples 11 to 15 and the first substrate in Example 17. A 100 μm-thick linear low-density polyethylene film ("TUX-FCD" manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals Tohcello Inc.) was used as the second substrate in Examples 15 to 17. A 12 μm-thick aluminum-deposited PET ("Diallaster H27" manufactured by Reiko Co., Ltd., VMPET) was used as the intermediate substrate in Example 17.
[0088] <Evaluation of laminate> obtained The following evaluations were carried out on the phenomena occurring during processing in step 2. The results are shown in Tables 8 and 9.
[0089] Delamination between the first substrate and the intermediate substrate The second process was divided into four steps: the first step, in which the coating speed was increased to 150 m / min; the second step, from 150 m / min until the coating volume stabilized; the third step, in which the laminate continued to form after the coating volume stabilized; and the fourth step, in which the processing stop button was pressed to decelerate. At each step, the film of the intermediate laminate formed in the first step was removed, and it was checked whether delamination had occurred between the first substrate and the intermediate substrate. Delamination results in the incorporation of air. If the film of the intermediate laminate was removed to the extent that delamination occurred between the first substrate and the intermediate substrate, abnormal noise was generated in the coating area, and the presence or absence of abnormal noise was used to determine whether delamination had occurred. Evaluation was based on the following criteria. A: No delamination occurs in any process (good) B: Delamination does not occur in the second and third steps, but delamination occurs in the first and fourth steps (usable) C: Delamination does not occur in the third step, but occurs in the first, second, and fourth steps. Or, delamination occurs in all steps (unusable).
[0090] [Telescope] In the second step, the stage at which telescoping occurred in the wound roll of the approximately 4000 m laminate was visually observed, and the results were evaluated according to the following criteria. A: No telescope (good) B: No telescope below 2000m, telescope occurs above 2000m (usable) C: Telescope occurs below 2000m (unusable)
[0091] [Table 8]
[0092] According to the evaluation results, by setting the difference in viscosity between the first adhesive and the second adhesive at 40°C to 2,000 mPa·s or more, delamination between the first substrate and the intermediate laminate and telescoping due to misalignment of the intermediate laminate did not occur, and a good three-layer laminate could be produced. In particular, as in Examples 1 to 4, even when an adhesive containing an aliphatic polyisocyanate with a slow curing rate was used as the first solvent-free adhesive, by increasing the difference in viscosity with the second solvent-free adhesive, it was possible to produce a good three-layer laminate without performing aging between the first and second steps, demonstrating the usefulness of this manufacturing method. On the other hand, the comparative example 1 is However, because the difference in viscosity between the first adhesive and the second adhesive at 40°C was small, less than 2,000 mPa·s, it was not possible to solve the delamination between the first substrate and the intermediate laminate, or the telescoping due to misalignment of the intermediate laminate.
