[0001] (CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS) This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 021178, filed May 7, 2020. U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 021178 is incorporated herein by reference.
[0002] FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition that cures to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive that is capable of adhering to uneven surfaces. [Background technology]
[0003] Using conventional silicone pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) to coat substrates with uneven surfaces (e.g., substrates with features on their surfaces, common in the fabrication of electronic devices) can be difficult due to the elastic properties (resilience to pressure) of conventional PSAs, regardless of their adhesive strength. However, if the crosslink density is reduced to create a PSA with inelastic properties (ultra-low crosslinking) to coat such uneven surfaces, the PSA may have insufficient physical stability (e.g., the PSA may flow or deform under the conditions of fabrication or use of the electronic device). Ultra-low crosslinking PSAs may also suffer from the problem of not being reworkable due to the possibility of easy cohesive failure, or the problem of not being able to firmly hold the substrate to protect the surface of the electronic device for a long period of time. Therefore, there is a need in the industry for pressure-sensitive adhesives that can adhere to and conform to uneven surfaces but still have sufficient crosslink density to overcome these problems.

[0012] If the starting material (A) has the subscript p=2 and the subscripts o=q=r=s=0, then the starting material (A) has the unit formula MM2D m D' n (wherein the total number (m+n) is 100 to 10,000, and the ratio m / n is 1 / 1 to 500 / 1). Alternatively, the total number (m+n) may be 200 to 9,900. Alternatively, the total number (m+n) may be 300 to 7,000, or 400 to 6,000. Alternatively, the total number (m+n) may be 1,000 to 5,000.

[0013] The starting material (A) can be prepared through a condensation or equilibration reaction using a (meth)acrylic-functional silane reagent, as described in "Chemistry and Technology of Silicone" by Noll, Academic Press, 1968, Chapter 5, pp. 190-245. Practical methods for preparing polydiorganosiloxane (A) are described below, but are not limited to these methods. For example, polydiorganosiloxane (A) can be prepared via a one-pot synthesis using a silanol fluid, a (meth)acrylic-functional dialkoxysilane, and an endblocking agent in the presence of triflic acid catalyst. Heptane or toluene was used to facilitate methanol removal by azeotropic distillation. Water was also added to the reaction to ensure complete hydrolysis of 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane. After the reaction was complete, the triflic acid was neutralized using a neutralizing agent such as calcium carbonate, and the resulting mixture was filtered. Another method involves pre-hydrolysis of (meth)acrylic-functional dialkoxysilanes followed by a condensation / disproportionation reaction involving a silanol fluid and an end-capping agent in the presence of a phosphazene catalyst (as described in U.S. Patent No. 9,051,428 to Davio et al.). Toluene was used to reduce viscosity and facilitate water / methanol removal by azeotropic distillation. After the reaction was complete, the acidic catalyst was neutralized using a neutralizing agent such as a trialkylamine or a disilazane derivative, followed by filtration.

The (meth)acrylic-functional dialkoxysilane can be selected from 3-[dimethoxy(methyl)silyl]propyl methacrylate (CAS#14513-34-9) and 3-[dimethoxy(methyl)silyl]propyl acrylate (CAS#13732-00-8). The silanol fluid can be selected from hydroxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (CAS#70131-67-8), hydroxy-terminated vinylmethylsiloxane-dimethylsiloxane copolymer (CAS#67923-19-7), hydroxy-terminated polyvinylmethylsiloxane (CAS#68083-20-5), hydroxy-terminated polyphenylmethylsiloxane (CAS#80801-30-5), and diphenylsilanediol (CAS#947-42-2). The endblocking agent may be selected from hexamethyldisiloxane (CAS#107-46-0), 1,3-divinyltetramethyldisiloane (CAS#2626-95-4), and dimethylvinylsiloxy terminated polydimethylsiloxane (CAS#68083-19-2). Additionally, dialkoxy or dichlorosilanes such as dimethoxydiphenylsilane (CAS#6843-66-9), dimethoxymethylvinylsilane (CAS#16753-62-1), dichlorodiphenylsilane (CAS#80-10-4), 3-mercaptopropylmethyldimethoxysilane (CAS#31001-77-1), dimethoxy(methyl)(3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)silane (CAS#358-67-8), diethoxy(methyl)phenylsilane (CAS#775-56-4), diethoxymethylsilane (CAS#2031-62-1), dimethoxymethylsilane (CAS#16881-77-9) may be added as co-reactants. Additionally, trialkoxysilanes and tetraalkoxysilanes, such as trimethoxy(methyl)silane (CAS#1185-55-3), 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (CAS#2530-85-0), 3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (CAS#21142-29-0), and tetramethyl orthosilicate (CAS#681-84-5), can be added to obtain T″ and Q branched structures.Typical catalysts for condensation reactions are summarized in US Pat.

[0021] Polyorganosilicate resins can be prepared by any suitable method, such as cohydrolysis of the corresponding silanes or silica hydrosol capping. Polyorganosilicate resins can be prepared by silica hydrosol capping processes, such as those disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 2,676,182 to Daudt et al., U.S. Patent No. 4,611,042 to Rivers-Farrell et al., and U.S. Patent No. 4,774,310 to Butler et al. The Daudt et al. method involves reacting silica hydrosol with a hydrolyzable triorganosilane, such as trimethylchlorosilane, a siloxane, such as hexamethyldisiloxane, or a mixture thereof, under acidic conditions, and recovering a copolymer having M and Q units. The resulting copolymer can contain 1 to 5 weight percent hydroxyl groups.
[0022] The intermediates used to prepare the polyorganosilicate resins can have two, three, or four hydrolyzable substituents per molecule, such as diorganoalkoxysilanes, triorganoalkoxysilanes, and silanes having four hydrolyzable substituents, or alkali metal silicates. M 2SiX 1 2 and R M Six 1 3 (wherein, R M is the above R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 and X is selected from the group consisting of 1 represents a hydrolyzable substituent). A silane having four hydrolyzable substituents can have the formula SiX 2 4 (in the formula, each 2 is halogen, alkoxy, or hydroxyl. Suitable alkali metal silicates include sodium silicates.
[0023] The polyorganosilicate resins prepared as described above typically contain silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups, i.e., the formula HOSi 3 / 2 , HOR M SiO 2 / 2 , and / or HOR M 2SiO 1 / 2The polyorganosilicate resin may contain up to 5% silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups. The concentration of silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups present in the polyorganosilicate resin can be determined using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy according to ASTM Standard E-168-16. For certain applications, it may be desirable for the amount of silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups to be 2% or less, alternatively less than 0.7%, alternatively less than 0.3%, alternatively less than 1%, or even between 0.3% and 0.8%. The silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups formed during the preparation of the polyorganosilicate resin can be converted to triorgano (e.g., trihydrocarbyl) siloxane groups or different hydrolyzable groups by reacting the silicone resin with a silane, disiloxane, or disilazane containing the appropriate end groups. The silane containing hydrolyzable groups may be added in molar excess over the amount required to react with the silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups in the polyorganosilicate resin.
[0024] Alternatively, the polyorganosilicate resin contains 2% or less, alternatively 0.7% or less, alternatively 0.3% or less, or alternatively 0.3% to 0.8% of a compound of formula X 2 SiO 3 / 2 , X 2 R M SiO 2 / 2 , and / or X 2 R M 2SiO 1 / 2 (In the formula, R M and X 2 is as defined above).
[0025] Alternatively, the polyorganosilicate resin may have a terminal aliphatic unsaturated group (R 3) may be present. Polyorganosilicate resins having terminal aliphatic unsaturation can be prepared by reacting the product of Daudt et al. with an unsaturated organic group-containing endblocking agent and (optionally) an endblocking agent free of aliphatic unsaturation in an amount sufficient to provide 3 to 30 mole percent unsaturated organic groups in the final product. Examples of endblocking agents include, but are not limited to, silazanes, siloxanes, and silanes. Suitable endblocking agents are known in the art and are exemplified in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,584,355, 4,591,622, and 4,585,836. A single endblocking agent or a mixture of such agents can be used to prepare such resins.
[0026] As prepared, the polyorganosilicate resin comprises the above units, and the polyorganosilicate resin further comprises units having silanol (silicon-bonded hydroxyl) groups and has the formula Si(OSiR M 3)4 (in the formula, R M The neopentamer may include Si as described in Reference Example 2 of column 32 of U.S. Pat. No. 9,593,209. 29 Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy can be used to measure the molar ratio of M and Q units, where the ratio is expressed as {M(resin) + (M(neopentamer)} / {Q(resin) + Q(neopentamer)}, which represents the molar ratio of the total number of triorganosiloxy groups in the resin and neopentamer portions of the polyorganosilicate resin to the total number of silicate groups (Q units) in the resin and neopentamer portions (M:Q ratio).
[0027] The Mn of the polyorganosilicate resin is determined by the R MThe Mn of the polyorganosilicate resin depends on various factors, including the type of hydrocarbyl group represented by the formula (I). The Mn of the polyorganosilicate resin refers to the number average molecular weight measured using gel permeation chromatography (GPC) according to the procedure in Reference Example 1, column 31 of U.S. Pat. No. 9,593,209, when the peak representing the neopentamer is excluded from the measurement. Alternatively, the Mn of the polyorganosilicate resin may be from 1,500 g / mol to 5,000 g / mol.

[0033] The methylsilylsilane may be selected from the group consisting of (3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl acrylate (CAS#4369-14-6), 3-[diethoxy(methyl)silyl]propyl methacrylate (CAS#65100-04-1), 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (CAS#2530-85-0), 3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (CAS#21142-29-0), methacryloxypropyltrichlorosilane (CAS#7351-61-3), and (3-acryloxypropyl)trichlorosilane (CAS#38595-89-0).
[0029] Another method for preparing a (meth)acryloxy-functional polyorganosilicate resin suitable for use as starting material (B) is the hydrosilylation reaction between a hydrosilyl (—SiH)-functional polyorganosilicate and a (meth)acrylic-functional alkene or alkyne, or between an alkenyl-functional polyorganosilicate and a (meth)acrylic-functional hydrosilane, as described in U.S. Patent No. 4,503,208 to Lin et al. and Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Vol. 292, No. 5, pp. 666-673 (2007). The (meth)acrylic-functional alkene or alkyne can be selected from allyl methacrylate (CAS# 96-05-9) and propargyl acrylate (CAS# 10477-47-1). The (meth)acrylic functional hydrosilane can be selected from methacryloxypropyltris(dimethylsiloxy)silane (CAS#17096-08-1) and 2-propenoic acid, 2-methyl-3-(1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxanyl)propyl ester (CAS#96474-12-3).
[0030] (C) Polyorganohydrogensiloxane The starting material (C) in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is a compound having the unit formula M t M H u D v D H w T x T H y Q z (wherein M, D, and Q represent units in the formula shown above, M H is the formula (HR 1 2SiO 1 / 2 ) and D H is the formula (HR 1 SiO 2 / 2 ) and T represents a unit of the formula (R 1 SiO 3 / 2 ) represents the unit of T H is the formula (HSiO 3 / 2the subscripts t, u, v, w, x, y, and z have values such that t≧0, u≧0, v≧0, w≧0, x≧0, y≧0, z≧0, the sum (u+w+y)≧3, and the sum (t+u+v+w+x+y+z) is sufficient to impart to the polyorganohydrogensiloxane a viscosity of 3 mPa·s to 1,000 mPa·s at 25°C, alternatively 5 mPa·s to 500 mPa·s at 25°C; R 1 are as defined above). Alternatively, the total number (t+u+v+w+x+y+z) may be 3 to 2,000, alternatively 3 to 1,000, or alternatively 3 to 500. Alternatively, when the subscripts x=y=z=0, the polyorganohydrogensiloxane has the unit formula M t M H u D v D H w where the total number (t+u)=2 and the total number (u+w)≧3.
[0031] The polyorganohydrogensiloxane (C) for the starting material is Ci) dimethylhydrogensiloxy-terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane / methylhydrogensiloxane), Cii) dimethylhydrogensiloxy-terminated polymethylhydrogensiloxane; Ciii) trimethylsiloxy-terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane / methylhydrogensiloxane), Civ) Trimethylsiloxy-terminated polymethylhydrogensiloxane Cv) dimethylhydrogensiloxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxane, and Cvi) A combination of two or more of Ci) to Cv) This is exemplified by:
[0032] Methods for preparing polyorganohydrogensiloxanes suitable for use as starting material C) are well known in the art, such as the hydrolysis and condensation of organohalosilanes. Furthermore, polyorganohydrogensiloxanes are known in the art and are commercially available, for example, from Dow Silicones Corporation (Midland, Michigan, USA).
[0033] Starting materials (A), (B), and (C), and the amount of each, depend on the ratio of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in starting material (C) to aliphatically unsaturated monovalent hydrocarbon groups R in starting materials (A) and / or (B) of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. 3 It is sufficient that the molar ratio (SiH / Vi ratio) to be greater than 0.2 / 1. Alternatively, the SiH / Vi ratio may be 0.21 / 1 to 22.0 / 1, alternatively, the SiH / Vi ratio may be 0.23 / 1 to 12.5 / 1, alternatively, the SiH / Vi ratio may be 0.23 / 1 to 0.9 / 1, or alternatively, the SiH / Vi ratio may be 0.23 / 1 to 0.6 / 1.
[0034] Starting materials (A), (B), and (C), and the amount of each, are sufficient to provide a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition having a molar ratio of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in starting material (C) to reactive groups in starting materials (A) and / or (B) (SiH / reactive group ratio) of <0.34 / 1, the reactive groups being R 2 and R 3 (as defined above). The SiH / reactive group ratio is less than the SiH / vinyl ratio. Alternatively, the SiH / reactive group ratio may be from 0.05 / 1 to 0.33 / 1, alternatively from 0.05 / 1 to 0.3 / 1, alternatively from 0.07 / 1 to 0.27 / 1, alternatively from 0.1 / 1 to 0.25 / 1.
[0035] (D) Hydrosilylation reaction catalyst The starting material (C) in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is a hydrosilylation catalyst. Examples of the hydrosilylation catalyst include platinum group metal catalysts. For example, the hydrosilylation catalyst may be a metal selected from Di) platinum, rhodium, ruthenium, palladium, osmium, and iridium. Alternatively, the hydrosilylation catalyst may be Dii) a compound of such a metal, such as chloridetris(triphenylphosphane)rhodium(I) (Wilkinson's catalyst), a rhodium diphosphine chelate such as [1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane]dichlorodirhodium or [1,2-bis(diethylphospino)ethane]dichlorodirhodium, chloroplatinic acid (Speier's catalyst), chloroplatinic acid hexahydrate, or platinum dichloride; or Diii) a complex of such a compound with a low molecular weight organopolysiloxane. Alternatively, the hydrosilylation catalyst may be a compound microencapsulated in a matrix or core / shell structure (Div). For example, a platinum complex of a low molecular weight organopolysiloxane may be a platinum complex of 1,3-diethenyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane (Karstedt's catalyst). Alternatively, the hydrosilylation catalyst may be a complex microencapsulated in a resin matrix (Dv). Exemplary hydrosilylation catalysts are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,159,601, 3,220,972, 3,296,291, 3,419,593, 3,516,946, 3,814,730, 3,989,668, 4,766,176, 4,784,879, 5,017,654, 5,036,117, and 5,175,325, and European Patent No. 0 347 895(B). Suitable hydrosilylation catalysts are known in the art and commercially available. For example, SYS-OFF™ 4000 catalyst and SYL-OFF™ 2700 are available from Dow Silicones Corporation (Midland, Michigan, USA).
[0036] The amount of catalyst used herein will depend on various factors, including the selection of starting materials A), B), and C), their respective aliphatically unsaturated monovalent hydrocarbon group and silicon-bonded hydrogen atom content, and the presence or absence of inhibitors, but the amount of catalyst will be sufficient to catalyze the hydrosilylation reaction of SiH and aliphatically unsaturated monovalent hydrocarbon groups, or the amount of catalyst will be sufficient to provide from 1 ppm to 1000 ppm, based on the combined weight of all starting materials in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, alternatively from 2 ppm to 500 ppm, alternatively from 10 ppm to 100 ppm, based on the same basis, of platinum group metal.
[0037] (E) Photoradical initiator The starting material (E) in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is a photoradical initiator. Suitable photoradical initiators include UV initiators such as benzophenone derivatives, acetophenone derivatives (α-hydroxyketones), benzoin and its alkyl esters, phosphine oxide derivatives, xanthone derivatives, oxime ester derivatives, and camphorquinone. Photoradical initiators are commercially available.For example, suitable photoradical initiators for use herein include 2,6-bis(4-azidobenzylidene)cyclohexanone, 2,6-bis(4-azidobenzylidene)-4-methylcyclohexanone, 1-hydroxy-cyclohexyl-phenyl-ketone (IRGACURE™ 184), 2-methyl-1[4-(methylthio)phenyl]-2-morpholinopropan-1-one (IRGACURE™ 907), and 2,6-bis(4-azidobenzylidene)-4-methylcyclohexanone. 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-propan-1-one (DAROCUR® 1173); a mixed initiator of 50% IRGACURE® 184C and 50% benzophenone (IRGACURE® 500); a mixed initiator of 20% IRGACURE® 184C and 80% DAROCUR® 1173 (IRGACURE® 1000); 2-hydroxy-1-[4-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)methyl]propan-1-one (DAROCUR® 1173); [4-(hydroxyethoxy)phenyl]-2-methyl-1-propanone (IRGACURE™ 2959); methyl benzoyl formate (DAROCUR™ MBF); alpha,alpha-dimethoxy-alpha-phenylacetophenone (IRGACURE™ 651); 2-benzyl-2-(dimethylamino)-1-[4-(4-morpholinyl)phenyl]-1-butanone (IRGACURE™ 369); a mixed initiator of 30% IRGACURE™ 369 and 70% IRGACURE™ 651 (IRGACURE™ 1300); diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide (IRGACURE™ TPO), ethyl (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phenylphosphinate (IRGACURE™ TPO-L), propriethioxime ester compounds (Adeka N-1919, NCI-831, NCI-930, NCI-730, and NCI-100 supplied by NCI Corporation), thioxanthen-9-one; 10-methylphenothiazine; isopropyl-9H-thioxanthen-9-one; 2,4-diethyl-9H-thioxanthen-9-one; 2-chlorothioxanthen-9-one; 1-chloro-4-propoxy-9H-thioxanthen-9-one; or a combination of two or more thereof.DAROCUR™ and IRGACURE™ brand photoradical initiators are commercially available from BASF SE (Ludwigshafen, Germany). Alternatively, the photoradical initiator may be selected from the group consisting of Ei) benzophenone, Eii) substituted benzophenone compounds, Eiii) acetophenone, Eiv) substituted acetophenone compounds, Ev) benzoin, Evi) alkyl esters of benzoin, Evii) substituted phosphine oxide compounds, Eviii) xanthone, and Eix) substituted xanthone, and Ex) combinations of two or more of Ei)-Eix). Alternatively, the photoradical initiator may be a substituted acetophenone, such as 1-hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone. The type of photoradical initiator is not particularly limited. However, some photoradical initiators, particularly those containing a thioether group, a phosphinate group, or a phosphine oxide group, may inhibit the hydrosilylation reaction catalyst. Therefore, when such a photoradical initiator is contained, it is necessary to control the amounts of the (D) hydrosilylation reaction catalyst and the (I) additive appropriately, and / or to adjust the curing temperature / time.
[0038] The amount of photoradical initiator in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition will depend on various factors, including the desired reaction rate, the photoinitiator used, and the selection and amount of starting materials (A) and (B) and their respective (meth)acryloxyalkyl group content, but the amount can be from 0.1% to 10% by weight, based on the combined weight of starting materials (A), (B), and (C), or from 1% to 5% by weight on the same basis.
[0039] (F) Hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor Starting material (F) in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is a hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor (inhibitor) that may optionally be used to alter the rate of reaction of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms with the aliphatically unsaturated hydrocarbon groups of starting materials (A), (B), and (C) compared to the reaction rate of the same starting material except for omitting the inhibitor. Inhibitors include acetylenic alcohols such as dimethylhexynol, and 3,5-dimethyl-1-hexyn-3-ol, 1-butyn-3-ol, 1-propyn-3-ol, 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol, 3-methyl-1-butyn-3-ol, 3-methyl-1-pentyn-3-ol, 3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-ol, 4-ethyl-1-octyn-3-ol, 3,5-dimethyl-1-hexyn-3-ol, and 1-ethynyl-1-cyclohexanol (ETCH), and combinations thereof; cycloalkenylsiloxanes such as methylvinylcyclosiloxanes exemplified by 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-1,3,5,7-tetravinylcyclotetrasiloxane, 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-1,3,5,7-tetrahexenylcyclotetrasiloxane, and combinations thereof; ene- amines such as tetramethylethylenediamine, 3-dimethylamino-1-propyne, n-methylpropargylamine, propargylamine, and 1-ethynylcyclohexylamine; dialkyl fumarates such as diethyl fumarate, and / or dialkenyl fumarates such as diallyl fumarate, and / or maleic esters such as dialkoxyalkyl fumarates, diallyl maleate, and diethyl maleate; nitriles; ethers; carbon monoxide; alkenes such as cyclooctadiene, divinyltetramethyldisiloxane; alcohols such as benzyl alcohol; and combinations thereof.
[0040] Alternatively, the inhibitor may be a silylated acetylenic compound. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that the addition of the silylated acetylenic compound reduces yellowing of the reaction product prepared from the hydrosilylation reaction compared to reaction products from the hydrosilylation of starting materials that do not contain the silylated acetylenic compound or that contain an organic acetylenic alcohol inhibitor such as those described above.
[0041] The silylated acetylene compounds are (3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)trimethylsilane, ((1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyl)oxy)trimethylsilane, bis(3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylsilane, bis(3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)silanemethylvinylsilane, bis((1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyl)oxy)dimethylsilane, methyl(tris(1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyloxy))silane, methyl(tris(3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy))silane, (3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylphenylsilane, (3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylhexenylsilane, (3-methyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)triethylsilane, bis(3-methyl-1- cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)dimethylhexenylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)dimethylvinylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)diphenylmethylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)trimethylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)trifluoropropylsilane, (3,5-dimethyl-1-hexyn-3-oxy)trimethylsilane, (3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)diphenylmethylsilane, (3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylphenylsilane, (3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylvinylsilane, (3-phenyl-1-butyn-3-oxy)dimethylhexenylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)dimethylvinylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)diphenylmethylsilane, (cyclohexyl-1-ethyn-1-oxy)trimethylsilane, and combinations thereof. Alternatively, the silylated acetylenic compound is exemplified by methyl(tris(1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyloxy))silane, ((1,1-dimethyl-2-propynyl)oxy)trimethylsilane, or a combination thereof. The silylated acetylenic compounds useful as inhibitors herein can be prepared by methods known in the art. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,677,740 discloses silylation of the acetylenic alcohols by reacting them with chlorosilanes in the presence of an acid acceptor.Alternatively, the hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor may be selected from the group consisting of acetylenic alcohols, cycloalkenylsiloxanes, ene-yne compounds, triazoles, phosphines, mercaptans, hydrazines, amines, fumarates, maleates, nitriles, ethers, carbon monoxide, alcohols, and silylated acetylenic alcohols. Alternatively, the hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor may be an acetylenic alcohol, such as ETCH.
[0042] The amount of inhibitor used herein will depend on a variety of factors, including the desired reaction rate, the particular inhibitor used, and the selection and amount of starting materials (A), (B), and (C). However, if present, the amount of inhibitor may be from 10 ppm to 5,000 ppm, based on the combined weight of starting materials (A), (B), and (C), or from 20 ppm to 2,000 ppm on the same basis.
[0043] (G) Free radical scavengers The starting material (G) is a free radical scavenger (scavenger) that can be used to control or inhibit the radical reaction of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. Because the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition contains reactive (meth)acrylate groups, a viable free radical scavenger can be present, for example, to prevent premature reaction during storage and use of a protective film prepared using the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. Scavengers containing phenolic compounds are one class of materials that can be used in the present invention, including, for example, 4-methoxyphenol (MEHQ, the methyl ether of hydroquinone), hydroquinone, 2-methylhydroquinone, 2-t-butylhydroquinone, t-butylcatechol, butylated hydroxytoluene, and butylated hydroxyanisole, as well as combinations of two or more thereof. Other scavengers that can be used include phenothiazines and anoxic inhibitors, such as NPAL-type inhibitors (tris-(N-nitroso-N-phenylhydroxylamine) aluminum salts) manufactured by Albemarle Corporation (Baton Rouge, La.). Alternatively, the free radical scavenger may be selected from the group consisting of phenolic compounds, phenothiazines, and anoxic inhibitors.
[0044] Free radical scavengers are known, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 9,475,968, and are commercially available. The amount of scavengers in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition depends on various factors, including the type and amount of (meth)acryloxyalkyl groups in the starting materials (A) and (B), but the scavengers can be present in an amount of 5 ppm to 2,000 ppm, based on the combined weight of the starting materials (A), (B), and (C), or 10 ppm to 1,500 ppm on the same basis.
[0045] (H) Solvent The starting material (H) in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is a solvent. A solvent may be added during the preparation of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, for example, to aid in the mixing and delivery of one or more starting materials and / or to facilitate coating the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition on a substrate, as described below. When preparing the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, certain starting materials, such as the polyorganosilicate resin and / or the hydrosilylation reaction catalyst, may be delivered in a solvent. Suitable solvents include organic liquids, exemplified by, but not limited to, aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons, ketones, esters, ethers, glycols, and glycol ethers.

[0046] However, the amount of solvent will vary depending on various factors, such as the type of solvent selected and the amounts and types of other starting materials selected, etc. However, when present, the amount of solvent may be from 0 to 90% by weight, based on the total weight of all starting materials in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, or from 0 to 60% by weight on the same basis.
[0047] (I) Additives The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may optionally further comprise additives such as Ii) synergists, Iii) chain transfer agents (hydrogen donors), Iiii) sensitizers, or combinations of two or more of additives Ii)-Iv). The above additives may help improve UV sensitivity and reduce one or more of the oxygen inhibition and adhesive strength of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive when exposed to UV radiation. Suitable types of additives are summarized in Husar, Branislav et al., "The formulator's guide to anti-oxygen inhibition additives," Progress in Organic Coatings 77.11 (2014):1789-1798, and WO 2017182638(A1). The type of additive is not particularly limited. However, some additives, particularly those containing mercapto groups, phosphine, or phosphine oxide groups, can inhibit the hydrosilylation catalyst. Therefore, when such additives are used, it is necessary to control the amounts of (D) the hydrosilylation catalyst and (I) the additive appropriately, and / or adjust the curing temperature / time. The amount of additive may be 0 to 5 parts by weight, or 0 to 2 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the starting material (A). Examples of commercially available additives are listed below.
[0048] The synergist may be selected from amine-containing compounds consisting of tertiary amines, glycine, oximes, aminobenzoates, acrylated amines, amine-modified acrylates, and combinations of at least two of these synergists.

The amount of synergist may be 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, alternatively 0.1 to 2.0 parts by weight, per part by weight of photoinitiator (E).
[0049] The chain transfer agent can be selected from mercapto-containing compounds and any other hydrogen donors. Examples include pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate) (CAS#7575-23-7; Sigma-Aldrich), trimethylolpropane tris(3-mercaptopropionate) (CAS#33007-83-9, Sigma-Aldrich), tris(trimethylsilyl)silane (CAS#1873-77-4, Alfa Aesar), 3-mercaptopropyl(dimethoxy)methylsilane (CAS#31001-77-1, TCI), (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (CAS#4420-74-0; TCI), mercaptosiloxane (CAS102783-03-9, Gelest), and 1-hexanethiol (CAS#111-31-9, Sigma-Aldrich). The amount of chain transfer agent may be 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, alternatively 0.1 to 2.0 parts, per 1 part by weight of photoinitiator (E).
[0050] Alternatively, the synergist may be a sensitizer such as those disclosed in WO 2015 / 194654(A1) and U.S. Pat. No. 4,250,053. Useful sensitizers include 2-isopropylthioxanthone, 1,3-diphenyl-2-pyrazoline, and 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran. Other examples of sensitizers include anthracene compounds, 4-methoxy-1-naphthol, fluorene, pyrene, and stilbene.

The amount of sensitizer may be 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, alternatively 0.1 to 2.0 parts, per part by weight of photoinitiator (E).
[0051] (J) Filler The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may optionally further comprise an inorganic filler, for example, a silica filler such as fumed silica and / or precipitated silica. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that adhesive articles prepared using the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may be weak against certain external pressures due to their very low crosslink density, and therefore the addition of a filler may reinforce the cohesive strength (or mechanical strength or toughness). However, the amount and type of filler must be selected so that the filler does not significantly affect the ability of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to adhere to and conform to uneven surfaces. Examples of surface-treated fumed silicas for use include treated silicas commercially available, for example, under the trade name AEROSIL™, such as AEROSIL™ R8200, R9200, R812, R812S, R972, R974, R805, R202 from Degussa Corporation; under the trade name CAB-O-SIL™ ND-TS, TS610, or TS710 from Cabot Corporation; and under the trade name REOLOSIL™, such as DM-10, DM-20S, DM-30, HM-30S, MT-10, PM-20L, QS-10, QS-20A, and QS-25C from Tokuyama. Although the amount of starting material (J) will depend on various factors, including the additives selected and the conditions for preparing the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, the amount of filler may be from 0% to 30% by weight, alternatively from 1% to 30% by weight, alternatively from 1% to 20% by weight, or alternatively from 5% to 15% by weight, based on the combined weight of starting materials (A) and (B).
[0052] (K) Bis-SiH-terminated polydiorganosiloxane Optionally, a bis-SiH terminated polydiorganosiloxane may be used in addition to the starting material (C) in the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. This polydiorganosiloxane has the unit formula M H 2D k (In the formula, M Hand D units are as defined above, and may have the subscript k≧1, or alternatively, 1≦k≦500. Suitable polydiorganosiloxanes for starting material (K) include dimethylhydrogensiloxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxanes and dimethylhydrogensiloxy-terminated polydiphenylsiloxanes. When present, the weight ratio of starting material (K) to starting material (C) [(K) / (C) ratio] may be from 0.25 / 1 to 4 / 1.
[0053] When selecting starting materials for the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition described above, there may be overlap between types of starting materials, as certain starting materials described herein may have more than one function. For example, certain reducing agents may also function as hydrosilylation reaction inhibitors (e.g., phosphines such as triphenylphosphine). When additional starting materials are added to the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, the additional starting materials differ from each other and from the starting materials required for the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition.
[0054] Method for preparing a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition can be prepared by a method that includes combining all of the starting materials by any convenient means, such as by mixing at room temperature or at an elevated temperature. For example, if the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is prepared at an elevated temperature and / or if the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is prepared as a one-part composition, the hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor may be added before the hydrosilylation reaction catalyst.
[0055] Alternatively, for example, when the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is to be stored for an extended period of time before use, the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may be prepared as a multi-part composition. In a multi-part composition, any starting material having silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms, such as a hydrosilylation reaction catalyst, is stored in a separate part from the polyorganohydrogensiloxane, and the parts are combined immediately before use of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. For example, a two-part composition may be prepared by combining starting materials, including starting material (C) a polyorganohydrogensiloxane, all or a portion of starting materials (A) and (B), optionally all or a portion of (H) a solvent, and optionally one or more other additional starting materials described above, by any convenient means, such as mixing, to form a base part. The curing agent may be prepared by combining starting materials, including starting material (D) a hydrosilylation reaction catalyst, all or a portion of starting materials (A) and (H), and optionally one or more other additional starting materials described above, by any convenient means, such as mixing. The starting materials can be mixed at ambient or elevated temperatures. The starting material (F) hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor can be included in one or more of the base part, the curing agent part, or a separate additional part. The starting material (B) polyorganosilicate resin can be added to one or more of the base part, the curing agent part, or a separate additional part. The starting material (E) photoradical initiator and the starting material (G) free radical scavenger can be added to the base part or a separate additional (e.g., third) part. When a two-part composition is used, the weight ratio of the amount of base part to the curing agent part can range from 1:1 to 10:1. The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition cures via a hydrosilylation reaction to form a pressure-sensitive adhesive.
[0056] Preparation of Adhesive Articles The above-mentioned method may further comprise one or more additional steps. The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition prepared as described above can be used to form an adhesive article on the surface of a substrate, for example, a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive (prepared by thermally curing the above-mentioned silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition). Thus, the above-mentioned method may further comprise applying the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to a substrate, for example, a web-based substrate.
[0057] The application of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to a web-based substrate can be carried out by any convenient means. For example, the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition can be applied to a web-based substrate by a gravure coater, an offset coater, an offset gravure coater, a roller coater, a reverse roller coater, an air knife coater, or a curtain (slot die) coater.
[0058] The substrate may be any material capable of withstanding the curing conditions (described below) used to cure the pressure-sensitive adhesive curable composition to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive on the substrate. For example, any substrate capable of withstanding heat treatment at temperatures of 120°C or higher, or even 150°C or higher, is suitable. Examples of materials suitable for such substrates include plastic films such as polyimide (PI), polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), liquid crystal polyarylate, polyamide imide (PAI), polyether sulfide (PES), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), PE (polyethylene), and PP (polypropylene). The thickness of the substrate is not critical, but may range from 25 micrometers to 300 micrometers. The substrate is preferably transparent; alternatively, non-transparent substrates may be used as long as they allow the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive to be exposed to UV radiation.
[0059] To improve bonding of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive to the substrate, the method may optionally further comprise treating the surface of the substrate prior to applying the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. Treatment of the substrate may be carried out by any convenient means, such as applying a primer or subjecting the substrate to a corona discharge treatment, etching, or plasma treatment prior to applying the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to the substrate.
[0060] Adhesive articles, such as protective films, can be prepared by applying the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition described above to the surface of the substrate described above. The method may optionally further comprise removing all or a portion of the solvent (if present) before and / or during curing. Solvent removal may be carried out by any convenient means, such as heating the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition at a temperature that evaporates the solvent but does not completely cure it via a hydrosilylation reaction, for a time sufficient to remove all or a portion of the solvent (e.g., 30 seconds to 1 hour, or 1 minute to 5 minutes), e.g., 70°C to 120°C, or 50°C to 100°C, or 70°C to 80°C. The method then further includes curing the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (which may have some or all of the solvent removed when a drying step is performed) via a hydrosilylation reaction at room temperature, or by heating at a temperature of 60°C to 220°C, alternatively 70°C to 170°C, alternatively 80°C to 160°C, for a time sufficient to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive on the surface of the substrate (e.g., 30 seconds to 1 hour, alternatively 15 minutes to 45 minutes). The drying and / or hydrosilylation reaction curing may be carried out by placing the substrate in an oven. The amount of silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition applied to the substrate depends on the specific application, but the amount may be sufficient such that, after curing via the hydrosilylation reaction, the thickness of the cured silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive can be 50 micrometers to 1,000 micrometers, alternatively 100 micrometers to 700 micrometers, alternatively 200 micrometers to 600 micrometers.
[0061] Thus, a method for forming an adhesive article comprising a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on a surface of a substrate comprises: Optionally, 1) treating the surface of the substrate; 2) applying the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to the surface of the substrate; Optionally, 3) removing all or part of the solvent, if present; 4) heating the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition to form a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on the surface of the substrate; and Includes.
[0062] If desired, steps 2) through 4) above may be repeated one or more times to increase the thickness of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive. (Desired thicknesses are described in the "Use Method" section below.) The method may optionally further include applying a removable release liner to the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive on the side opposite the substrate, for example, to protect the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive prior to use. The release liner may be removed before use of the adhesive article. The resulting silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive layer of the cured film contains free (meth)acrylic groups that can be analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The relative amount of the cured film and its response upon exposure to UV radiation can be monitored by the absorption intensity of the vibrations of unsaturated bonds in the FT-IR spectrum, as shown below: "UV Coatings: Basics, Recent Developments and New Applications," p. 33 (Elsevier; 2006 Dec. 21) to Schwalm; Polymer Chemistry. 2013; 4(8):2449-56 to Espeel. The free (meth)acrylic groups in the silicone hybrid sensitive adhesive prepared by using starting material (A) are approximately 1296 cm -1 and 938 cm -1 was detected.
[0063] How to use The adhesive article is 5) applying the adhesive article (prepared as described above) to the textured surface so that the surface of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer opposite the substrate contacts the textured surface; Optionally, 6) applying heat and / or pressure to the adhesive article and the textured surface; 7) exposing the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer to UV radiation; thereby causing the silicone hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive layer to conform to the uneven surface; and The textured surface may be any part of an (opto)electronic device having features thereon, such as all or part of a ball grid array or a land grid array.
[0064] The uneven surface may have a linear, circular, or rectangular pattern, and the pattern may be concave or convex. The width of the line, the diameter of the circle, and one side of the rectangle may be 0.1 mm to 10 mm. The height of the thickness unevenness applied to the member is not particularly limited, but may be in the range of 1 μm to 600 μm. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of the effects of thin film formation and thickness unevenness recovery, the ratio of the thickness of the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer to the height of the thickness unevenness (thickness of silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer / height of thickness unevenness) may be 1.1 to 5, or 1.5 to 4. Specific examples of lamination to uneven surfaces in the industrial field are described in U.S. Patent No. 8,920,592, U.S. Patent Application No. 13 / 722,276 (Optical Devices), U.S. Patent No. 6,906,425 to Stewart, U.S. Patent No. 6,000,603, WO 2015 / 182816 (Electronic Devices), and U.S. Patent Application No. 16 / 244,860 (U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 20190148598, Micro-Assembled Optical Devices). Instead of the adhesives in these references, silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive compositions and methods for their preparation and use may be used.
[0065] The temperature at which the adhesive article tends to conform well to the 3D features of the uneven surface can be between RT and 200°C. When applying pressure to the adhesive article to conform to the uneven surface, the applied pressure can be generally 0.05 MPa or more, alternatively 0.1 MPa or more, and 2 MPa or less, alternatively 1 MPa or less. To completely remove voids (to obtain a bubble-free laminate), a vacuum of generally 25 Torr or less, alternatively 5 Torr or less, can be applied during lamination, depending on the complexity of the 3D features of the uneven surface.
[0066] The ultraviolet irradiation in step 7) may be carried out using a general ultraviolet irradiation device, such as a counter-type or conveyor belt-type ultraviolet irradiation device that uses a low-pressure mercury lamp, a medium-pressure mercury lamp, a high-pressure mercury lamp, an ultra-high-pressure mercury lamp, a xenon lamp, a metal halide lamp, an electrodeless lamp, an ultraviolet light-emitting diode, etc. as a light source. The ultraviolet irradiation dose is generally 0.1 to 5 W / cm. 2 for 5 seconds to 120 seconds (=0.5 to 600 J / cm 2 ) [Example]

[0079] In this Reference Example 9, a methacryloxy-functional polyorganosilicate resin designated as Starting Material B-4 in Table 4 was synthesized as follows. The following starting materials were charged into a three-necked 2-L flask equipped with a thermocouple, a mechanical stirrer, a Dean-Stark tube fitted with a water-cooled condenser, and a N bubbler: 450.37 g of (B-2) trimethylated silica (Mn=3065, Mw=5664) 75% in xylene, 55.76 g of 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 0.13 g of (G-1) MEHQ, and 120 g of toluene.

[0080] In Reference Example 10, a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition and a comparative composition were prepared. Starting materials (A) and (B) may be dissolved in a solvent. The general procedure was as follows: To prepare a sample designated as Inventive Example 1, a solution was prepared by mixing the following starting materials in a mixer: 133.33 g of starting material (A-1) dissolved in toluene (H-1) containing approximately 300 ppm of (G-1); 140 g of starting material (B-3) dissolved in toluene (H-1) containing 100 g of starting material (A-1); 10.8 g of polyorganohydrogensiloxane (C-2); 8.3 g of photoradical initiator (E-1); and 0.2 g of hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor (F-1). After mixing the starting materials, the resulting solution was further mixed with 0.3 g of hydrosilylation reaction catalyst (D-1). A silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition was prepared by mixing the starting materials with the aforementioned solution. The resulting composition was used to manufacture adhesive tapes. The resulting adhesive tapes were evaluated for lamination properties and adhesive strength. Comparative Examples and Inventive Examples 2-25 were similarly prepared using the starting materials and amounts listed in the table. To prepare a solvent-free sample designated Inventive Example 26, a solution was prepared by mixing the following starting materials in a mixer: 100 g of starting material (A-6) containing approximately 300 ppm of (G-1) and 312.5 g of starting material (B-4). Then, xylene and toluene were evaporated under reduced pressure at 110°C. Next, 2.8 g of polyorganohydrogensiloxane (C-2); 6.2 g of photoradical initiator (E-1); and 0.1 g of hydrosilylation reaction inhibitor (F-1) were added. After mixing the above components, the resulting fluid was further mixed with 0.1 g of hydrosilylation reaction catalyst (D-1). Invention Examples 27-29 were similarly prepared using the starting materials and amounts listed in the table. Tables 2-5 show the starting materials (detailed in Table 1) used and their amounts (based on grams solids and grams solution). The values (grams solution) indicate that the starting material was initially dissolved in the solvent and represent the weight of the solution in grams. The values based on solids indicate the amount of starting material excluding the solvent.
[0081] In Reference Example 11, a silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive tape was formed using the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive composition prepared according to Reference Example 9. The solvent-containing compositions (Comparative Examples 1-12 and Inventive Examples 1-25) were coated onto a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film (50 μm), and the coated film was then dried by heating at 110°C for 20 minutes, followed by 150°C for 4 minutes, until the thickness reached 200 μm. Each composition was repeatedly coated onto the dried surface, and the coated film was then dried by heating at 110°C for 20 minutes, followed by 150°C for 6 minutes. The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer had a total thickness of 400 μm after curing. The solvent-free compositions (Inventive Examples 26-29) were coated onto a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film (50 μm), and the coated film was then dried by heating at 110°C for 20 minutes, followed by 150°C for 5 minutes, until the thickness reached 400 μm. The resulting silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet was attached to a fluoro-coated polyethylene terephthalate film (release liner) using a laminator, and the resulting product was then aged at room temperature for 1 day.
[0082] In Reference Example 11, the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive tape prepared according to Reference Example 10 was evaluated for adhesion to an uneven surface. The resulting silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet was then cut into 1-inch-wide tape strips and placed on the uneven surface. A ball grid array (or BGA package) (supplied by Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited, product name BGA-320P-M06) with a substrate size of 27 mm x 27 mm x 2.46 mm and a 320-pin (ball) array on its surface, with a ball diameter of 0.75 mm, a ball height of 0.35 mm, and a center pitch of 1.27 mm was used as the uneven surface. The tape strip was adhered to the BGA package using a laminator at room temperature for 30 minutes or at 90°C for 30 minutes. A pressure of 0.5 MPa was applied to the laminate under a vacuum of <1 Torr (Vacuum Laminator, purchased from Shindo Eng. Lab. Ltd.). After removing the laminate from the chamber, it was transferred to a UV curing machine and then irradiated with UV light from above the base film. The light source was a 365 nm LED (FireJet™ FJ100). Power = 0.6 mW, time = 30 seconds. Finally, a visual inspection was performed using a microscope to confirm whether the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive tape was well laminated without delamination and / or voids. The visual inspection results are shown in Tables 2-4 below. A value of "A" means that the sample had no delamination or voids. A value of "B" means that the sample had partial delamination and / or voids. A value of "C" means that the sample was completely delaminated.
[0083] In Reference Example 12, the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes prepared according to Reference Example 10 were evaluated for adhesion to flat surfaces. Each silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive tape was placed on a stainless steel (SUS) plate and adhered to it by moving a 2 kg rubber-covered pressure roller back and forth twice over the strip. The assembly was held at room temperature for 1 hour. The tape was then exposed to UV light from above the base film. The light source was a 365 nm LED (FireJet™ FJ100). Power = 0.6 mW, time = 30 seconds. Finally, the adhesive force (g / in) required to peel the tape from the stainless steel plate by pulling at a speed of 300 mm / min and an angle of 180° was measured and recorded in Tables 2-5 below. All adhesive forces recorded in Tables 2-5 were measured when "adhesive failure" occurred. "Adhesive failure" indicates that the pressure-sensitive adhesive on the base film was removed from the steel plate without leaving any adhesive residue. "Measurement failure" means that due to insufficient crosslinking, the pressure-sensitive adhesive either tore or remained on both the fluorocoated film (release liner) and the base film when removed (stripped) from the fluorocoated film prepared in Reference Example 10. "Cohesive failure" indicates that the pressure-sensitive adhesive remained on both the base film and the stainless steel plate (or adherend) after the tape was removed.
[0084] In Reference Example 13, silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes prepared according to Reference Example 10 were evaluated for adhesion to flat surfaces under three different conditions: before and after UV irradiation, and UV irradiation followed by heat treatment. Each silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive tape was placed on a stainless steel (SUS) plate and adhered to it by moving a 2 kg rubber-covered pressure roller back and forth over the strip twice. The assembly was held at room temperature for 1 hour. The adhesion force (g / in) required to peel the tape from the stainless steel plate at a speed of 300 mm / min and an angle of 180° was then measured under three different conditions: 1) adhesion force before UV irradiation, 2) adhesion force after UV irradiation (light source: 365 nm LED (FireJet™ FJ100), power = 0.6 mW, time = 30 seconds), and 3) adhesion force after UV irradiation followed by exposure to 125°C in a convection oven for 1 hour and cooling to room temperature. All adhesion forces reported in Table 7 were measured at the time when "adhesion failure" occurred.
[0085] Tables 2-5 show the starting materials (detailed above) and their amounts (in grams) used, as well as the test results after lamination onto an uneven surface, as described in Reference Example 9. The tables also show adhesion to a flat stainless steel (SUS) surface after UV radiation curing, as described in Reference Example 10.

[0094] Comparative Examples 1-5 demonstrate the effect of not using any (meth)acryloxyalkyl-functional siloxane in the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. Comparative Examples 1, 2, 4, and 5 were unable to adhere to the uneven surface or had voids. Comparative Example 3 demonstrated that the pressure-sensitive adhesive laminated without voids but did not have sufficient crosslink density, as indicated by cohesive failure on a stainless steel (flat) surface, where the pressure-sensitive adhesive tore and remained on the surface after the tape was removed.
[0095] Comparative Examples 6 and 9 showed that when the SiH / Vi ratio was too low (<0.2), the adhesive strength of the samples could not be measured. This was because inadequate crosslinking on the base film caused the pressure-sensitive adhesive to become flowable or tear when the fluoro-coated film prepared in Reference Example 10 was removed. Comparative Examples 7, 8, 10, and 11 showed that when the SiH / reactive group ratio was too high (>0.34), the samples failed to adhere to uneven surfaces or had voids. Working Examples 1 and 2 (containing the same starting materials as Comparative Examples 6 and 7) with different SiH / Vi and SiH / reactive group ratios of 0.845 and 0.554, and 0.331 and 0.217, showed that silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives laminated to uneven surfaces without voids could be prepared by laminating at 90°C for 30 minutes and then irradiating with UV under the conditions described in Reference Example 11. After UV irradiation, further crosslinking reactions occur and adhesion can be measured without cohesive failure, which is in contrast to the behavior of Comparative Example 3. Working Examples 1 and 2 exhibited reworkable properties without leaving any residue on the surface after UV irradiation.
[0096] Comparative Example 8 showed that when the SiH / reactive group ratio was 0.423 (>0.34), the sample failed to adhere to the uneven surface or had voids. In contrast, Working Examples 3 and 4, which use the same starting materials, had SiH / reactive group ratios of 0.317 and 0.183, respectively, and were laminated at 90°C for 30 minutes, followed by UV irradiation under the conditions described in Reference Example 11, allowing the preparation of silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives that laminated to uneven surfaces without voids. Working Example 4, which has a lower SiH / reactive group ratio than Working Example 3, was not heated for 30 minutes, but was then UV-irradiated, allowing the sample to be laminated at room temperature without voids. After UV irradiation, further crosslinking reactions occurred, allowing the adhesive strength to be measured without cohesive failure.
[0097] Comparative Examples 10 and 11 showed that when the SiH / reactive group ratio was 0.401 and 0.604, respectively, the samples failed to adhere to the uneven surface or had voids. In contrast, Working Examples 5-11, which used the same starting materials, were able to prepare silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives laminated to uneven surfaces without voids by laminating at 90°C for 30 minutes and then irradiating with UV under the conditions described in Reference Example 11 when the SiH / reactive group ratio was 0.110 to 0.279. Furthermore, Working Examples 14-20, which used a different crosslinker (C-2), were able to prepare silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives laminated to uneven surfaces without voids by laminating at 90°C for 30 minutes and then irradiating with UV under the conditions described in Reference Example 9 when the SiH / Vi ratio was 0.331 and 0.597 and the SiH / reactive group ratio was 0.176 and 0.262.
[0098] Working Examples 2, 4, 6, 8-12, and 17-20 showed that when the SiH / reactive group was between 0.111 and 0.223, the samples were successfully laminated onto uneven surfaces at room temperature without heating. Working Examples 1, 3, 5, 7, 14-16 had slightly higher crosslink densities and showed that when the SiH / reactive group was between 0.25 and 0.40, applying heat, e.g., 90°C, during lamination helped to laminate onto uneven surfaces without voids.
[0099] Working Examples 19, 21, and 22 have a SiH / Vi ratio of 0. 176 ~0. 216 and the SiH / reactive group ratio is 0. 182 ~0. 250 The results showed that the samples were laminated onto the uneven surface without voids when the (m+o) / n ratio was 521 / 1. However, Comparative Example 12 using starting material (A-5) showed cohesive failure even after UV irradiation when the (m+o) / n ratio was 521 / 1, indicating that UV irradiation did not cause sufficient further crosslinking under the tested conditions. On the other hand, the results showed that the starting materials (A-2 to A-3) with (m+o) / n ratios of 37 / 1 to 260 / 1 4Working Examples 19, 21, and 22 using ) showed "adhesion failure" after UV exposure without leaving any residue on the surface.
[0100] Optional starting materials such as (I) additives and (J) fillers that do not affect the crosslink density when preparing the silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive layer can be used according to industrial needs, as shown in Working Examples 23-25.
[0101] Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the resin / polymer ratio itself does not affect crosslink density, and therefore the SiH / Vi ratio and SiH / reactive group ratio, which indicate the degree of crosslink density, are prioritized for lamination onto uneven surfaces, regardless of the resin / polymer ratio. Furthermore, because the resin / polymer ratio is primarily related to adhesive properties, it is believed that adhesive strength can be modified while maintaining lamination performance. For example, working examples 5, 13, and 26 exhibited relatively high adhesion and good void-free lamination when the resin / polymer ratio was 2.41 to 3.13, indicating that silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive compositions are also useful in applications requiring high adhesion for long-term protection of electronic device surfaces. In some samples, heating during lamination aided lamination onto uneven surfaces, as demonstrated by examples 7 and 13.
[0102] Table 6 shows other advantages of silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives for use in film processing. Conventional pressure-sensitive adhesives according to Comparative Examples 2 and 4 showed little change before and after UV irradiation. In particular, when exposed to high temperatures such as 125°C, the adhesive strength increased significantly, indicating poor adhesive stability and difficulty in separating from the (opto)electronic device after processing. As shown in Table 6, Working Examples 9, 18, 20, and 21 showed a decrease in adhesive strength after UV irradiation and maintained a low level of adhesion even after exposure to high temperatures.
[0103] Industrial Applicability The silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesive compositions described herein can be cured to form silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives. One objective of the present invention is to provide reactive, deformable silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives that are curable via hydrosilylation to a B-stage cure, such as silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives that are non-flowable, deformable by pressure at room or elevated temperatures, and can be molded into a desired shape and further cured by exposure to light, such as ultraviolet (UV) light, while maintaining that shape (C-stage cure). An additional objective is to provide control over adhesive strength according to the application, requiring easy peeling or permanent adhesion after UV exposure. Silicone hybrid pressure-sensitive adhesives can also be useful for protecting specific areas of complex electronic components during device processing by conforming to uneven surfaces.
