[0037] For Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2, the printing liquid Encapsulating materials The printing liquid Encapsulating materials The components in parts by weight are as follows: [Table 1]

[0038] The printing liquids provided in Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 Encapsulating materials The viscosity (rotational viscosity) and warpage of the adhesive are tested, and the specific test process is as follows:

[0039] 1. Rotational viscosity test method: The sample is kept at a constant temperature of 25°C, and the gum solution is placed in the 6R sleeve of the Brookfield viscometer. The SC4-14 rotor is selected, and the rotation speed of the viscometer is adjusted to 20 rpm. After 4 minutes, the viscosity value is read. The gum solution that has been successfully prepared is allowed to stand for 24 hours, and the rotational viscosity for 24 hours is measured according to the above rotational viscosity test method.

[0040] 2. Warpage test method: Apply the gum solution evenly to a glass slide, bake it at 150℃ for 1 hour, and then remove it after cooling naturally.

[0046] Although preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, other variations and modifications to these embodiments may be made by those skilled in the art upon learning the basic inventive concept. It is therefore intended that the appended claims be interpreted to include not only the preferred embodiments but also all variations and modifications that fall within the scope of the present invention.
