[0072] The glass transition temperature (Tg) of a polymer can be determined by the theoretical glass transition temperature (theoretical value) calculated based on the Fox equation below. The Fox equation is a relationship between the glass transition temperature (Tg) of a polymer and the glass transition temperature (Tgi) of a homopolymer of the monomers constituting the polymer. In the Fox equation below, Tg represents the glass transition temperature (°C) of the polymer, Wi represents the weight fraction of the monomer i constituting the polymer, and Tgi represents the glass transition temperature (°C) of the homopolymer formed from the monomer i. The glass transition temperature of a homopolymer can be determined by literature values. For example, the glass transition temperatures of various homopolymers are listed in "Polymer Handbook" (4th edition, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1999) and "New Polymer Library 7: Introduction to Synthetic Resins for Paints" (Kiyozo Kitaoka, Polymer Publishing Association, 1995). Meanwhile, the glass transition temperature of a homopolymer of a monomer can also be determined by the method specifically described in JP 2007-51271 A. Fox formula 1 / (273+Tg)=Σ[Wi / (273+Tgi)] Examples of compounds that develop color upon reaction with an acid (color-forming compounds) include leuco dyes, triarylmethane dyes, diphenylmethane dyes, fluoran dyes, spiropyran dyes, and rhodamine dyes. The color-forming compounds may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0073] Examples of leuco dyes include 2'-anilino-6'-(N-ethyl-N-isopentylamino)-3'-methylspiro[phthalide-3,9'-[9H]xanthene], 3-dibutylamino-6-methyl-7-anilinofluoran, 3-dipropylamino-6-methyl-7-anilinofluoran, 3-diethylamino-6-methyl-7-anilinofluoran, 3-dimethylamino-6-methyl-7-anilinofluoran, 3-diethylamino-6-methyl-7-xylidinofluoran, and 3-(4-diethylamino-2-ethoxyphenyl)-3-(1-ethyl-2-methylindol-3-yl)-4-azaphthalide.

[0077] The acid generator used is preferably a photoacid generator that generates acid when irradiated with active energy rays. In this case, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 can change color in a portion irradiated with active energy rays as an external stimulus. Specifically, in the portion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 irradiated with active energy rays, acid is generated from the photoacid generator, and this acid causes the color-forming compound to develop a color. The portion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 irradiated with active energy rays is colored, for example, a black color, depending on the color developed by the color-forming compound. The type of active energy ray used as the external stimulus is determined by the type of photoacid generator (specifically, the wavelength of the active energy ray at which the photoacid generator generates an acid). Examples of active energy rays include ultraviolet light, visible light, infrared light, X-rays, α-rays, β-rays, and γ-rays. From the viewpoints of the versatility of equipment used and ease of handling, ultraviolet light is preferably used as the active energy ray.

[0078] Examples of photoacid generators include onium compounds that generate acid upon irradiation with ultraviolet light. The onium compounds are provided in the form of onium salts of onium cations and anions. Examples of onium cations include iodonium and sulfonium.

The photoacid generator is preferably a sulfonium compound and (C6F5)4B - Onium salts (onium compounds) consisting of sulfonium and C4F9HSO3 - Examples of suitable onium salts (onium compounds) include:

[0079] The amount of the acid generator blended per 100 parts by mass of the base polymer is, for example, 1 part by mass or more, preferably 2 parts by mass or more, more preferably 5 parts by mass or more, and even more preferably 6 parts by mass or more, and for example, 20 parts by mass or less, preferably 15 parts by mass or less, and more preferably 10 parts by mass or less.

[0081] The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may also contain a crosslinking agent from the viewpoint of introducing a crosslinked structure into the base polymer. Examples of crosslinking agents include isocyanate crosslinking agents, epoxy crosslinking agents, oxazoline crosslinking agents, aziridine crosslinking agents, carbodiimide crosslinking agents, and metal chelate crosslinking agents. The crosslinking agents may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0082] Examples of isocyanate crosslinking agents include tolylene diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, xylylene diisocyanate, hydrogenated xylylene diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, hydrogenated diphenylmethane diisocyanate, tetramethylxylylene diisocyanate, naphthalene diisocyanate, triphenylmethane triisocyanate, and polymethylene polyphenylisocyanate. Also included as isocyanate crosslinking agents are derivatives of these isocyanates. Examples of isocyanate derivatives include isocyanurate-modified products and polyol-modified products. Commercially available isocyanate crosslinking agents include, for example, Coronate L (a trimethylolpropane adduct of tolylene diisocyanate, manufactured by Tosoh), Coronate HL (a trimethylolpropane adduct of hexamethylene diisocyanate, manufactured by Tosoh), Coronate HX (an isocyanurate of hexamethylene diisocyanate, manufactured by Tosoh), and Takenate D110N (a trimethylolpropane adduct of xylylene diisocyanate, manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals).

[0083] Examples of epoxy crosslinking agents include bisphenol A, epichlorohydrin-type epoxy resins, ethylene glycidyl ether, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, glycerin diglycidyl ether, glycerin triglycidyl ether, 1,6-hexanediol glycidyl ether, trimethylolpropane triglycidyl ether, diglycidylaniline, diamine glycidylamine, N,N,N',N'-tetraglycidyl-m-xylylenediamine, and 1,3-bis(N,N-diglycidylaminomethyl)cyclohexane.

[0084] The crosslinking agent preferably includes an isocyanate crosslinking agent and an epoxy crosslinking agent, and more preferably includes a trimethylolpropane adduct of xylylene diisocyanate and 1,3-bis(N,N-diglycidylaminomethyl)cyclohexane.

[0085] The amount of crosslinking agent blended is, for example, 0.01 parts by mass or more, and preferably 0.03 parts by mass or more, per 100 parts by mass of the base polymer, from the viewpoint of ensuring the cohesive strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. From the viewpoint of ensuring good tackiness in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, the amount of crosslinking agent blended is, for example, 10 parts by mass or less, preferably 5 parts by mass or less, more preferably 3 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 1 part by mass or less, per 100 parts by mass of the base polymer.

[0086] When a crosslinked structure is introduced into the base polymer, a crosslinking catalyst may be used to effectively promote the crosslinking reaction. Examples of the crosslinking catalyst include metal-based crosslinking catalysts. Examples of the metal-based crosslinking catalyst include dibutyltin dilaurate, tetra-n-butyl titanate, tetraisopropyl titanate, nursem ferric iron, and butyltin oxide. The amount of the crosslinking catalyst used is, for example, 0.0001 parts by mass or more per 100 parts by mass of the base polymer. The amount used is, for example, 1 part by mass or less.

[0087] In addition, when an isocyanate crosslinking agent (specifically, a trimethylolpropane adduct of xylylene diisocyanate) is blended as the crosslinking agent and a metal-based crosslinking catalyst (specifically, dibutyltin dilaurate) is blended as the crosslinking catalyst, it is preferable to blend acetylacetone as a crosslinking inhibitor into the adhesive composition.

[0088] When acetylacetone is added, it coordinates with dibutyltin dilaurate. This makes it possible to suppress the progress of the crosslinking reaction before the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is applied to a release film (first release film 11) to form a coating film. Furthermore, as will be described in detail later, by heating and drying the composition when forming the coating film, the acetylacetone can be removed and the crosslinking reaction can proceed.

[0089] The amount of acetylacetone used is, for example, 100 parts by mass or more, preferably 10,000 parts by mass or more, and for example, 50,000 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the crosslinking catalyst.

[0090] The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may also contain other components as needed, such as a polymerizable compound and its cured product, a photopolymerization initiator, a silane coupling agent, a tackifier, a plasticizer, a softener, an antioxidant, a surfactant, and an antistatic agent.

[0091] Examples of the polymerizable compound include a monomer (monofunctional monomer) having one polymerizable functional group (ethylenically unsaturated double bond) and a monomer (polyfunctional monomer) having multiple polymerizable functional groups. Examples of the monofunctional monomer include monofunctional (meth)acrylate. Examples of the polyfunctional monomer include polyfunctional (meth)acrylate.

[0092] In addition, when the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition contains a polymerizable compound, the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition preferably further contains a photopolymerization initiator.

[0093] The adhesive composition is obtained by blending a base polymer, a compound that develops color upon reaction with an acid, an acid generator, a crosslinking agent that is optionally blended, a crosslinking catalyst that is optionally blended, acetylacetone that is optionally blended, and other components that are optionally blended in the above-mentioned ratios.

[0094] The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is formed from a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition by the method described below.

[0095] The adhesive layer 3 can be changed in color by an external stimulus.

[0096] Specifically, when the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition contains a photoacid generator, when the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is irradiated with active energy rays as an external stimulus, an acid is generated from the photoacid generator, and the color-forming compound develops color by reacting with the acid, thereby causing the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 to change color (the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 has a reduced visible light transmittance at a wavelength of 550 nm).

[0097] The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 has a discolored portion 10 that has changed color due to an external stimulus. More specifically, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 has the discolored portion 10 in at least a portion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. Preferably, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 has the discolored portion 10 in a portion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. The visible light transmittance of the discolored portion 10 at a wavelength of 550 nm is, for example, less than 20%.

[0098] The thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is, for example, 10 μm or more, or preferably 15 μm or more, from the viewpoint of ensuring sufficient adhesiveness to the adherend 2. From the viewpoint of handleability, the thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is, for example, 300 μm or less, preferably 100 μm or less, or more preferably 50 μm or less.

[0099] 4.Oxygen barrier layer The oxygen barrier layer 4 has an oxygen permeability equal to or lower than a predetermined value, and therefore, the oxygen barrier layer 4 can prevent oxygen from penetrating into the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. As a result, as will be described in detail later, deterioration of the discolored portion 10 due to external light can be prevented.

[0100] Specifically, the oxygen permeability of the oxygen barrier layer 4 is 200 cm 3 / m 2 ·day·atm or less, preferably 150cm 3 / m 2 ·day·atm or less, preferably 50cm 3 / m 2 ·day·atm or less, more preferably 20cm 3 / m 2 The oxygen permeability is, for example, 1 cm 3 / m 2 ·day·atm or more.

[0101] When the oxygen permeability of the oxygen barrier layer 4 is equal to or lower than the upper limit, it is possible to prevent oxygen from penetrating into the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. As a result, it is possible to prevent deterioration of the discolored portion 10 due to external light.

[0102] The oxygen permeability of the oxygen barrier layer 4 can be adjusted to the above range by adjusting the material of the polymer film (in other words, the type of oxygen barrier layer 4) described later and / or the thickness of the oxygen barrier layer 4 described later.

[0103] The oxygen permeability of the oxygen barrier layer 4 can be measured in accordance with JIS K7126-2 Appendix A at 23°C and a relative humidity of 55%.

[0104] The oxygen barrier layer 4 is, for example, a transparent polymer film. Examples of materials for the polymer film include polyester resin, (meth)acrylic resin (acrylic resin and / or methacrylic resin), olefin resin, polycarbonate resin, polyethersulfone resin, polyarylate resin, melamine resin, polyamide resin, polyimide resin, cellulose resin, and polystyrene resin.

[0105] Examples of polyester resins include polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate, and polyethylene naphthalate, preferably polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Examples of (meth)acrylic resins include polymethacrylate. Examples of olefin resins include polyethylene, polypropylene, and cycloolefin polymer (COP).

[0106] As the material for the polymer film, polyester resin and (meth)acrylic resin are preferred from the viewpoint of adjusting the oxygen permeability of the oxygen barrier layer 4 to the above range.

[0107] The polymer film materials may be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0108] Furthermore, the oxygen barrier layer 4 can also be a film formed from a biomass-derived component (for example, isosorbide).

[0109] Furthermore, in the second step of the method for producing the laminate 1 described below, when active energy rays are irradiated from the oxygen barrier layer 4 side, an oxygen barrier layer that transmits active energy rays is selected as the oxygen barrier layer 4.

[0110] An example of the oxygen barrier layer that transmits active energy rays is an oxygen barrier layer that transmits ultraviolet rays.

[0111] Examples of oxygen barrier layers that transmit ultraviolet light include the transparent polymer films described above.

[0112] The oxygen barrier layer that transmits ultraviolet rays has a total light transmittance (JIS K 7375-2008) of, for example, 80% or more, or preferably 85% or more.

[0113] The oxygen barrier layer 4 has a thickness of, for example, 10 μm or more, preferably 22 μm or more, more preferably 30 μm or more, and for example, 200 μm or less, preferably 100 μm or less.

[0114] 5. Manufacturing method of laminate The method for producing the laminate comprises a first step of arranging a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 on one surface in the thickness direction of an adherend 2, a second step of forming a discolored portion 10 in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 by an external stimulus, and a third step of arranging an oxygen barrier layer 4 on one surface in the thickness direction of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. Below, the method for producing the laminate 1 will be explained in order of each step.

[0115] Specifically, the first method and the second method are mentioned.

[0116] The first method is a method in which the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface of the adherend 2 in the thickness direction before the discolored portion 10 is formed in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3.

[0117] The second method is a method in which, after forming discolored portion 10 in pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface of adherend 2 in the thickness direction.

[0118] 5-1. 1st method In the first method, before forming discolored portion 10 in adhesive layer 3, adhesive layer 3 is placed on one surface in the thickness direction of adherend 2. That is, in the first method, adhesive layer 3 is placed on one surface in the thickness direction of adherend 2, and then discolored portion 10 is formed in adhesive layer 3. Because adhesive layer 3 is transparent when placed, it can be properly inspected for the presence of foreign matter and air bubbles.

[0119] Specifically, Method 1 includes Method 1A, Method 1B, and Method 1C. Method 1A involves carrying out Step 1, Step 2, and Step 3 in this order. Method 1B involves carrying out Step 3, Step 1, and Step 2 in this order. Method 1C involves carrying out Step 1, Step 3, and Step 2 in this order.

[0120] <Method 1A> In Method 1A, the first step, the second step, and the third step are carried out in this order.

[0121] In the first step, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface of an adherend 2 in the thickness direction.

[0122] To dispose the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2, first, the adherend 2 is prepared as shown in FIG. 2A.

[0123] Next, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is prepared.

[0124] The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 can be prepared, for example, by applying the above-mentioned pressure-sensitive adhesive composition onto a release film (first release film 11) to form a coating film, and then drying the coating film.

[0125] The release film may be, for example, a flexible plastic film. Examples of the plastic film include a polyethylene terephthalate film, a polyethylene film, a polypropylene film, and a polyester film. The thickness of the release film is, for example, 3 μm or more. The thickness is, for example, 200 μm or less. The surface of the release film is preferably subjected to a release treatment.

[0126] Examples of methods for applying the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition include roll coating, kiss roll coating, gravure coating, reverse coating, roll brushing, spray coating, dip roll coating, bar coating, knife coating, air knife coating, curtain coating, lip coating, and die coating. The drying temperature of the coating film is, for example, 50°C or higher. The drying temperature is, for example, 200°C or lower. The drying time is, for example, 5 seconds or longer. The drying time is, for example, 20 minutes or shorter.

[0127] When the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition contains a crosslinking agent, a crosslinking reaction proceeds simultaneously with the drying or by subsequent aging. The aging conditions are appropriately set depending on the type of crosslinking agent. The aging temperature is, for example, 20°C or higher. The aging temperature is, for example, 160°C or lower. The aging time is, for example, 1 minute or longer. The aging time is, for example, 7 days or shorter.

[0128] Furthermore, when the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition contains acetylacetone (in other words, when acetylacetone is coordinated with dibutyltin dilaurate), the acetylacetone coordinated with dibutyltin dilaurate is removed during drying, thereby allowing the crosslinking reaction to proceed.

[0129] Furthermore, before or after aging, a further release film (second release film) may be laminated on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 on the first release film 11. The second release film is, for example, a flexible plastic film that has been subjected to a surface release treatment. As the second release film, the same films as those described above for the first release film 11 can be used.

[0130] In this manner, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 can be produced in which the adhesive surface is covered and protected by a release film. Each release film is peeled off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 as necessary when the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is to be used.

[0131] 2B, this pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is transferred to one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2. In this way, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2.

[0132] In the second step, as shown in FIG. 2C, a discolored portion 10 is formed in the adhesive layer 3 by an external stimulus.

[0133] Specifically, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is irradiated with active energy rays as an external stimulus from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 side and / or the adherend 2 side through a mask pattern (not shown) for masking predetermined regions of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. This causes discoloration of the portions of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 that are not masked by the mask pattern.

[0134] In this step, an acid is generated from the photoacid generator in the area of ​​the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 that has been irradiated with active energy rays, and the color-forming compound reacts with the acid to develop color, thereby forming a discolored area 10 in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3.

[0135] 2D, in the third step, an oxygen barrier layer 4 is disposed on one surface in the thickness direction of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. In this way, a laminate 1 is obtained.

[0136] <Method 1B> In Method 1B, the third step, the first step and the second step are carried out in this order.

[0137] In the third step, the oxygen barrier layer 4 is disposed on one thickness-wise surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. To dispose the oxygen barrier layer 4 on one thickness-wise surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, first, as shown in Fig. 3A, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is formed on the first release film 11 by the method described above.

[0138] 3B, the oxygen barrier layer 4 is disposed on one thickness-wise surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. This results in a color-changeable adhesive sheet S having the first release film 11, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, and the oxygen barrier layer 4 in this order.

[0139] 3C, in the first step, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is placed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2. Specifically, the first release film 11 is peeled off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is placed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2.

[0140] 3D, in the second step, active energy rays are irradiated from the oxygen barrier layer 4 side and / or the adherend 2 side in the same manner as above to form discolored portions 10 in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. In this way, a laminate 1 is obtained. <Method 1C> In Method 1C, the first step, the third step, and the second step are carried out in this order.

[0141] In the first step, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface of the adherend 2 in the thickness direction using the same method as above.

[0142] Specifically, first, an adherend 2 is prepared as shown in Fig. 4A. Next, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is prepared on a first release film 11 using the same method as above. Next, as shown in Fig. 4B, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is transferred to one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2 using the same method as above. In this way, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2.

[0143] In the third step, as shown in FIG. 4C, an oxygen barrier layer 4 is disposed on one surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 in the thickness direction.

[0144] 4D, in the second step, active energy rays are irradiated from the oxygen barrier layer 4 side and / or the adherend 2 side in the same manner as above to form discolored portions 10 in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. In this way, a laminate 1 is obtained.

[0145] 5-2.Second method In the second method, after forming discolored portion 10 in pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is placed on one thickness-wise surface of adherend 2. Therefore, in the second method, discolored portion 10 can be formed in pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 without applying an external stimulus to adherend 2.

[0146] Specifically, the second method includes a second method, a second method, a first method, and a third method. In the second method, the second step, the first step, and the third step are carried out in this order. In the second method, the second step, the third step, and the first step are carried out in this order. In the second method, the third step, the second step, and the first step are carried out in this order.

[0147] <Method 2A> In Method 2A, the second step, the first step and the third step are carried out in this order.

[0148] In the second step, a discolored portion 10 is formed in the adhesive layer 3 by an external stimulus.

[0149] To form discolored portion 10 in pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 by an external stimulus, first, as shown in Fig. 5A, pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is prepared on first release film 11 by the same method as above. Next, as shown in Fig. 5B, active energy rays are irradiated from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 side and / or the first release film 11 side by the same method as above, to form discolored portion 10 in pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3.

[0150] 5C, in the first step, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is placed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2. Specifically, the first release film 11 is peeled off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is placed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2.

[0151] 5D, in the third step, an oxygen barrier layer 4 is disposed on one surface in the thickness direction of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. In this way, a laminate 1 is obtained.

[0152] <Method 2B> In Method 2B, the second step, the third step and the first step are carried out in this order.

[0153] In the second step, a discolored portion 10 is formed in the adhesive layer 3 by an external stimulus.

[0154] To form discolored portion 10 in pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 by an external stimulus, first, as shown in Fig. 6A, pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is prepared on first release film 11 by the same method as above. Next, as shown in Fig. 6B, active energy rays are irradiated from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 side and / or the first release film 11 side by the same method as above, to form discolored portion 10 in pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3.

[0155] In the third step, as shown in FIG. 6C, an oxygen barrier layer 4 is disposed on one surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 in the thickness direction.

[0156] In the first step, as shown in Fig. 6D, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2. Specifically, the first release film 11 is peeled off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2. In this way, the laminate 1 is obtained.

[0157] <Method 2C> In the 2C method, the third step, the second step, and the first step are carried out in this order.

[0158] In the third step, the oxygen barrier layer 4 is disposed on one thickness-wise surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. To dispose the oxygen barrier layer 4 on one thickness-wise surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, first, as shown in Fig. 7A, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is formed on the first release film 11 by the method described above.

[0159] 7B, the oxygen barrier layer 4 is disposed on one thickness-wise surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. This results in a color-changeable adhesive sheet S having the first release film 11, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, and the oxygen barrier layer 4 in this order.

[0160] In the second step, a discolored portion 10 is formed in the adhesive layer 3 by an external stimulus.

[0161] To form a discolored area 10 in the adhesive layer 3 by an external stimulus, as shown in Figure 7C, active energy rays are irradiated from the oxygen barrier layer 4 side and / or the first release film 11 side in the same manner as described above, thereby forming a discolored area 10 in the adhesive layer 3.

[0162] In the first step, as shown in Fig. 7D, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2. Specifically, the first release film 11 is peeled off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is disposed on one surface in the thickness direction of the adherend 2. In this way, the laminate 1 is obtained.

[0163] 6. Effects The laminate 1 has an oxygen permeability of 200 cm 3 / m 2 The oxygen barrier layer 4 has a temperature of 100°C / day atm or less, which can prevent deterioration of the discolored portion 10 due to external light.

[0164] Specifically, when the discolored portion 10 is exposed to oxygen, deterioration of the discolored portion 10 due to external light is accelerated. On the other hand, the laminate 1 has an oxygen permeability of 200 cm 3 / m 2 The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 has an oxygen barrier layer 4 with a viscosity of 100 ppm or less per day, thereby preventing oxygen from penetrating the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. As a result, deterioration of the discolored portion 10 due to external light can be prevented.

[0165] The method for producing the laminate 1 is to form a film having an oxygen permeability of 200 cm on one surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 in the thickness direction. 3 / m 2 The method further includes a third step of disposing an oxygen barrier layer 4 having an oxygen barrier property of 1000 ppm or less. This makes it possible to manufacture a laminate 1 that can suppress deterioration of discolored portion 10 due to external light.

[0166] 7. Variations Next, modified examples of the embodiment will be described. In the following modified examples, the same components and steps as those in the above-described embodiment will be denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted. Furthermore, the modified examples can be combined as appropriate. Furthermore, the modified examples can achieve the same effects as those in the embodiment, unless otherwise specified.

[0167] In the above description, the external stimulus is active energy rays, but the external stimulus may also be heat.

[0168] In the above explanation, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is prepared on the upper surface of the release film 11, and then the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is transferred (placed) on the adherend 2. On the other hand, it is also possible to apply the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition directly to the adherend 2 without preparing the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 on the upper surface of the release film 11, and then place the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 on the adherend 2.

[0169] In the above description, the laminate 1 includes the adherend 2, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, and the oxygen barrier layer 4, arranged in this order toward one side in the thickness direction. The laminate 1 may further include an active energy ray-blocking layer 5. Specifically, the laminate 1 may further include an active energy ray-blocking layer 5 on one surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4 and / or on the other surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 8A , the laminate 1 may further include an active energy ray-blocking layer 5 on one surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 8B , the laminate 1 may further include an active energy ray-blocking layer 5 on the other surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 8C , the laminate 1 may further include an active energy ray-blocking layer 5 on one surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4 and on the other surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4.

[0170] When the laminate 1 includes the active energy ray-blocking layer 5, further discoloration of the discolored portion 10 due to active energy rays can be suppressed.

[0171] The active energy ray blocking layer 5 may be, for example, an ultraviolet ray blocking layer.

[0172] The ultraviolet blocking layer is a layer that blocks (absorbs or reflects) ultraviolet rays. When the laminate 1 is provided with an ultraviolet blocking layer, further discoloration of the discolored portion 10 due to ultraviolet rays can be suppressed.

[0173] Specific examples of the ultraviolet blocking layer include an ultraviolet absorbing layer and an ultraviolet reflecting layer.

[0174] Examples of the ultraviolet absorbing layer include a resin film containing an ultraviolet absorbing agent and an adhesive tape containing an ultraviolet absorbing agent.

[0175] The average transmittance of the ultraviolet absorbing layer in the wavelength range of 300 nm or more and 400 nm or less is, for example, 15% or less, or preferably 10% or less.

[0176] The ultraviolet reflective layer is a layer that reflects ultraviolet light by utilizing light scattering, and examples of the ultraviolet reflective layer include multilayer optical films.

[0177] The active energy ray-blocking layer 5 is disposed on the other surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4 and / or on the other surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4 via, for example, a known adhesive.

[0178] Furthermore, in the above-described method for producing the laminate 1, there is no particular limitation on the timing of disposing the active energy ray-blocking layer 5. When the second step of forming discolored portion 10 in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 by ultraviolet light is carried out after disposing an ultraviolet blocking layer as the active energy ray-blocking layer 5, the discolored portion 10 is formed in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 by irradiating with ultraviolet light from the side opposite to the ultraviolet blocking layer.

[0179] The active energy ray-blocking layer 5 has a thickness of, for example, 10 μm or more, or preferably 50 μm or more, and for example, 1000 μm or less, or preferably 300 μm or less.

[0180] The laminate 1 may further include a substrate 20. The position of the substrate 20 in the laminate 1 is not particularly limited.

[0181] The substrate 20 is, for example, a flexible plastic film. Examples of materials constituting the plastic film include polyolefin, polyester, polyamide, polyimide, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, cellulose, polystyrene, and polycarbonate. Examples of polyolefins include polyethylene, polypropylene, poly-1-butene, poly-4-methyl-1-pentene, ethylene-propylene copolymer, ethylene-1-butene copolymer, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-ethyl acrylate copolymer, and ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer. Examples of polyesters include polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, and polybutylene terephthalate. Examples of polyamides include polyamide 6, polyamide 6,6, and partially aromatic polyamide.

[0182] The laminate 1 may further include an intermediate layer 30. The position of the intermediate layer 30 in the laminate 1 is not particularly limited.

[0183] As the intermediate layer 30, for example, the same materials as those exemplified for the adherend 2, the oxygen barrier layer 4, and the substrate 20 can be used.

[0184] Examples of the intermediate layer 30 include an adhesive layer formed from a known adhesive, an optical film, and various functional layers.

[0185] As described above, the laminate 1 can further include at least one selected from the group consisting of the active energy ray-blocking layer 5, the substrate 20, and the intermediate layer 30.

[0186] A specific example of such a case is a laminate 1 having an adherend 2, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, an intermediate layer 30, an active energy ray-blocking layer 5, and an oxygen barrier layer 4 in that order toward one side in the thickness direction, as shown in Figure 9A.

[0187] Another specific example is a laminate 1 having an adherend 2, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, a substrate 20, an active energy ray-blocking layer 5, and an oxygen barrier layer 4 in that order toward one side in the thickness direction, as shown in Figure 9B.

[0188] Another specific example is a laminate 1 having an adherend 2, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, an oxygen barrier layer 4, an active energy ray-blocking layer 5, and a substrate 20 in that order toward one side in the thickness direction, as shown in Figure 9C.

[0189] As a specific example, as shown in FIG. 9D, there is a laminate 1 having an adherend 2, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, an intermediate layer 30, a substrate 20, an active energy ray-blocking layer 5, and an oxygen barrier layer 4 in that order toward one side in the thickness direction.

[0190] As a specific example, as shown in FIG. 9E, there is a laminate 1 having an adherend 2, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, an intermediate layer 30, an active energy ray-blocking layer 5, an oxygen barrier layer 4, and a substrate 20 arranged in this order toward one side in the thickness direction.

[0191] Furthermore, the laminate 1 may further include a surface protection layer 40 on the outermost surface (one surface in the thickness direction) of the laminate 1 from the viewpoint of surface protection.

[0192] The surface protection layer 40 may be, for example, a resin film.

[0193] An embodiment in which the laminate 1 includes the surface protective layer 40 will be described with reference to the laminate 1 shown in FIG. 9B.

[0194] 10, the surface protective layer 40 is disposed on the outermost surface (one thickness-wise surface of the oxygen barrier layer 4) of the laminate 1. That is, the laminate 1 includes, in order toward one thickness-wise side, an adherend 2, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, a substrate 20, an active energy ray-blocking layer 5, an oxygen barrier layer 4, and a surface protective layer 40.

[0195] In the above description of surface protection layer 40, the laminate 1 shown in Figure 9B was mentioned, but the same applies to other laminates (for example, the laminates shown in Figures 1, 8A to 8C, 9A, 9C and 9D).

[0196] 8. Color-changing adhesive sheet 11, the color-changeable adhesive sheet S comprises, in this order toward one side in the thickness direction, a first release film 11, an adhesive layer 3, and an oxygen barrier layer 4. More specifically, the color-changeable adhesive sheet S comprises a first release film 11, an adhesive layer 3 disposed directly on the upper surface (one surface in the thickness direction) of the first release film 11, and an oxygen barrier layer 4 disposed directly on the upper surface (one surface in the thickness direction) of the adhesive layer 3. When the oxygen barrier layer 4 is disposed directly on the upper surface (one surface in the thickness direction) of the adhesive layer 3, excellent oxygen barrier properties are achieved.

[0197] The variable color adhesive sheet S has an oxygen permeability of 200cm 3 / m 2 Therefore, the laminate 1 can be manufactured in such a way that deterioration of the discolored portion 10 due to external light can be suppressed.

[0198] The color-changeable adhesive sheet S may further include an active energy ray-blocking layer 5. Specifically, the color-changeable adhesive sheet S may include an active energy ray-blocking layer 5 on the other surface in the thickness direction of the adhesive layer 3 and / or on one surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4 and / or on the other surface in the thickness direction of the oxygen barrier layer 4.

[0199] The active energy ray-blocking layer 5 is preferably an ultraviolet absorbing layer, more preferably an adhesive tape containing an ultraviolet absorbing agent. [Example]

[0213] <Evaluation> (oxygen permeability) The oxygen permeability of each oxygen barrier layer was measured at 23° C. and a relative humidity of 55% in accordance with JIS K7126-2 Appendix A. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0214] (Weather resistance test) For the laminates of each example and each comparative example, the samples were irradiated with ultraviolet light. Specifically, the adhesive sheet (adhesive layer) of the sample was irradiated with ultraviolet light from the Eagle Glass side through the glass in an environment of 23°C and relative humidity of 50% (the UV irradiation caused a reaction between the leuco dye and the photoacid generator in the adhesive layer). For this UV irradiation, a UV-LED lamp with a wavelength of 365 nm in a UV-LED irradiation device (model number "QEL-350-RU6W-CW-MY") manufactured by Quark Technology was used as the light source, and the cumulative irradiation light amount was 8000 mJ / cm. 2 (The cumulative amount of light irradiated in the wavelength range of 320 to 390 nm). In this manner, a colored laminate was produced. Next, the average transmittance, L * , a * , and , b * The values ​​were measured.

[0215] Next, the oxygen barrier layer side was irradiated for 24 hours with a super xenon lamp having an illuminance of 120 W in the wavelength range of 300 to 400 nm using a Super Xenon Weather Meter SX75 manufactured by Suga Test Instruments Co., Ltd. This gave a laminate after 24 hours of irradiation.

Then, the average transmittance, L, at wavelengths of 400 nm to 700 nm was measured. * , a * , and , b * The values ​​of each were measured.

[0218] In detail, the average transmittance (T1) of the laminate in the wavelength range of 400 nm to 700 nm and the L * (L1 * ) and a for the laminate * (a1 * ) and b for the laminate * (b1 * ) and the average transmittance (T2) of the laminate at wavelengths of 400 nm to 700 nm after 24 hours of irradiation, and the L * (L2 * ) and a for the laminate after 24 hours of irradiation * (a2 * ) and b for the laminate after 24 hours of irradiation * (b2 * ) and were measured, respectively.
