Description

Adhesive sheet and laminate

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet and a laminate.

[0002] Pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets are used in various technical fields (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets generally have a substrate made of a resin material such as a vinyl chloride resin and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. Furthermore, when the substrate is made of a vinyl chloride resin, the substrate mainly contains a plasticizer.

[0003] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2019-085518

[0004] When a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet is attached to an adherend and a certain period of time has passed, the adhesive strength may decrease, such as the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet becoming more easily peeled off from the adherend. One object of the present disclosure is to provide a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet that can suppress a decrease in adhesive strength even after a certain period of time has passed since the sheet is attached to an adherend.

[0006] According to the present disclosure, there is provided a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet that can suppress a decrease in adhesive strength even after a certain period of time has passed since it is attached to an adherend.

[0007] Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an embodiment of a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet, and Fig. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an embodiment of a laminate.

[0008] Generally, the terms "sheet," "film," and "tape" are sometimes used to distinguish between them based on thickness, etc., but in this specification, these terms are used without any particular distinction. In this specification, "adherend" means an object to which the PSA sheet is attached.

[0009] Each of the components described in this specification may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0010] In this specification, the numerical range n1 to n2 means n1 or more and n2 or less if n1<n2, and n1>n2 means n2 or more and n1 or less if n1>n2. In this specification, when multiple lower limit values ​​and multiple upper limit values ​​are given in the description of a certain element, a numerical range formed by combining a value arbitrarily selected from the given lower limit value and a value arbitrarily selected from the given upper limit value is also considered to be given.

[0011] [Adhesive Sheet] The adhesive sheet of the first aspect of the present disclosure is a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet comprising a resin material and an SP value of 10.0 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2 The adhesive film has a substrate containing the following plasticizer and a polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

[0012] The substrate has a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface.

[0013] The PSA sheet of the first embodiment may be a single-sided PSA sheet having a polyester-based PSA layer on either the first or second surface of the substrate. The PSA sheet of the first embodiment may be a double-sided PSA sheet having a first polyester-based PSA layer on the first surface of the substrate and a second polyester-based PSA layer on the second surface of the substrate, i.e., having a first polyester-based PSA layer, the substrate, and a second polyester-based PSA layer in this order in the stacking direction.

[0014] The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet according to the second aspect of the present disclosure has a polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet according to the second aspect comprises a resin material and a polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having an SP value of 10.0 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2 This sheet is intended to be attached to an adherend having a portion containing the following plasticizer so that the polyester-based adhesive layer of the adhesive sheet comes into contact with the portion of the adherend.

[0015] The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the second embodiment may be a double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet that does not have a substrate.

[0018] Hereinafter, when there is no particular distinction between the adhesive sheet of the first embodiment and the adhesive sheet of the second embodiment, or when describing matters common to the adhesive sheet of the first embodiment and the adhesive sheet of the second embodiment, they will simply be referred to as "adhesive sheet."

[0019] The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the present disclosure may optionally have a release film on the outer side of the polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The release film protects the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet may, for example, have a substrate, a polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and a release film in this order in the stacking direction, or a first release film, a first polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, a substrate, a second polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and a second release film in this order in the stacking direction, or a first release film, a polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and a second release film in this order in the stacking direction. When using the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet, for example, the release film is peeled off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and the exposed pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is attached to the surface of an adherend.

[0020] <Substrate> The substrate contains a resin material. Examples of the resin material include vinyl chloride resins such as polyvinyl chloride and vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer; other vinyl resins such as ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, and polyvinyl alcohol; polyester resins such as polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthate, polybutylene terephthalate, and polyethylene terephthalate / isophthalate copolymer; polyolefin resins such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polymethylpentene; cycloolefin resins; polystyrene resins; acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymers; fluoroethylene resins such as polyvinyl fluoride, polyvinylidene fluoride, and fluorinated polyethylene; polyamide resins such as nylon 6 and nylon 6,6; cellulose resins such as cellulose triacetate and cellophane; (meth)acrylic resins such as polymethyl(meth)acrylate, polyethyl(meth)acrylate, and polybutyl(meth)acrylate; polycarbonate resins; polyarylate resins; and polyimide resins. Among these, polyester resins and vinyl chloride resins are preferred, and polyethylene terephthalate and polyvinyl chloride are more preferred. From the viewpoint of reducing the environmental load, the resin material may be a biomass material obtained using raw materials derived from biomass.

[0021] In one embodiment, the substrate in the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the first aspect comprises a vinyl chloride resin and a cellulose ester having an SP value of 10.0 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2 and a plasticizer as follows: Such a substrate has, for example, rigidity due to the vinyl chloride resin and flexibility due to the plasticizer.

[0022] In this specification, a vinyl chloride resin is a polymer having a structural unit derived from vinyl chloride. The content of the structural unit derived from vinyl chloride in 100% by mass of the structural units derived from polymerizable monomers in a vinyl chloride resin is preferably 10% by mass or more, more preferably 20% by mass or more, even more preferably 30% by mass or more, even more preferably 40% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 50% by mass or more. In this specification, the content of each structural unit in a vinyl chloride resin is measured by a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) method. Examples of vinyl chloride resins include a homopolymer of vinyl chloride and a copolymer of vinyl chloride and a comonomer.

[0023] Examples of comonomers include vinylidene chloride, α-olefins such as ethylene and propylene, carboxyl group-containing monomers such as (meth)acrylic acid, maleic acid, and fumaric acid, and esters or acid anhydrides thereof, vinyl ester-based monomers such as vinyl acetate and vinyl propionate, styrene-based monomers such as styrene, α-methylstyrene, and vinyltoluene, and (meth)acrylonitrile. One or more types of comonomers may be used.

[0024] The substrate may contain one type of resin material or two or more types of resin materials.

[0025] The content of the resin material in the substrate is preferably 50% by mass or more, more preferably 60% by mass or more, and even more preferably 70% by mass or more, based on 100% by mass of the substrate. The content of the resin material in the substrate of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the first aspect is preferably 99% by mass or less, more preferably 95% by mass or less, even more preferably 91% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 87% by mass or less, based on 100% by mass of the substrate.

Examples of additives include antioxidants, UV absorbers, stabilizers, softeners, antistatic agents, tackifiers, plasticizers, inorganic or organic fillers, metal powders, pigments, and dyes. The substrate may contain one type of additive, or two or more types. The substrate may contain a plasticizer, for example, to improve its flexibility. A substrate containing a vinyl chloride resin preferably contains a plasticizer, for example, to improve its flexibility.

[0027] The substrate in the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the first embodiment has an SP value of 10.0 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2 It contains the following plasticizer. A pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet in which such a substrate is combined with a polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer can suppress a decrease in adhesive strength even after a certain period of time has passed since it is attached to an adherend (for example, in a high-temperature environment). The reason for this is unclear, but the inventors speculate as follows. In prior art, a plasticizer is sometimes blended into the substrate, for example, to improve the flexibility of the substrate. It is thought that the plasticizer contained in the substrate can migrate into the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and this migration reduces the adhesive strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The SP value is 10.0 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2 As will be shown in the Examples section below, the following plasticizers have low compatibility with polyester resins. 3 ) 1 / 2 It is presumed that the low compatibility between the following plasticizer and the polyester resin contained in the adhesive layer prevents the plasticizer from migrating from the substrate into the adhesive layer, thereby preventing the adhesive strength of the adhesive layer from being reduced by the plasticizer.

[0028] In this specification, the SP value of a plasticizer refers to a solubility parameter calculated by the Fedors method. Specifically, the SP value of a plasticizer is a value (unit: (cal / cm)) calculated by using the numerical values ​​(heat of vaporization and molar volume at 25°C of atoms or functional groups) described on page 152 (Table 5) of Polymer Engineering and Science, February 1974, Vol. 14, No. 2, pp. 147-154, which describes the Fedors method, according to formula (28) described on page 153 of the same publication. 3 ) 1 / 2 )

[0090] The above-mentioned portion of the adherend may contain one type of resin material or two or more types of resin materials.

[0121] The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below based on production examples, but the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the present disclosure is not limited to these production examples in any way.

[0122] [Methods for measuring various physical properties, etc.] <Content of structural units in polyester resin> The content ratio (amount of structural units) of structural units derived from each raw material monomer in the polyester resin was calculated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) under the following conditions: Measuring device: ECZL-500G (manufactured by JEOL Ltd.) Measuring method: 1 H-NMR Accumulation number: 16 Sample concentration: 10 mg / ml Dilution solvent: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-d6

[0123] <Glass Transition Temperature (Tg) of Polyester Resin> The polyester resin was placed in a simple hermetic pan and measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The temperature was increased from -60°C to 200°C at a rate of 10°C / min under a nitrogen stream, and the thermal change was measured to plot a DSC curve of "endothermal heat generation" versus "temperature." The temperature at the characteristic inflection point observed at this time was taken as Tg. The Tg value was obtained from the DSC curve by the midpoint method.

[0124] <Weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of polyester resin> The weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of the polyester resin, calculated in terms of polystyrene, was determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) under the following conditions: Measurement device: HLC-8320GPC (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation) GPC column configuration: the following four columns in series (all manufactured by Tosoh Corporation): (1) TSKgel HxL-H (guard column) (2) TSKgel GMHxL (3) TSKgel GMHxL (4) TSKgel G2500HxL Flow rate: 1.0 mL / min Column temperature: 40°C Sample concentration: 1.5% (w / v) (diluted with tetrahydrofuran) Mobile phase solvent: tetrahydrofuran Standard polystyrene equivalent

[0125] <Compatibility> The polyester resin obtained in the following production example was prepared. 3 ) 1 / 2 Di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DOP) and an SP value of 10.5 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2Diethyl phthalate (DEP) of 100 parts by mass of polyester resin and 20 parts by mass of DOP were dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (THF) to prepare a solution with a solids concentration of 30% by mass. Similarly, 100 parts by mass of polyester resin and 20 parts by mass of DEP were dissolved in THF to prepare a solution with a solids concentration of 30% by mass. Each of the obtained solutions was applied to a 50 μm thick polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film so that the thickness after drying was 20 μm, and the film was dried in an environment of 100 ° C for 2 minutes to remove the solvent, forming a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer after solvent removal was visually inspected and evaluated according to the following criteria.

[0126] A: Cloudiness or bleed-out is observed in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. This indicates low compatibility between the polyester resin and the plasticizer. In this case, it is believed that migration of the plasticizer from the layer containing the plasticizer into the polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer can be effectively suppressed. B: Slight cloudiness is observed in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. C: No cloudiness in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and no bleed-out is observed. This indicates high compatibility between the polyester resin and the plasticizer. In this case, it is believed that migration of the plasticizer from the layer containing the plasticizer into the polyester-based pressure-sensitive adhesive layer cannot be sufficiently suppressed.

[0127] [Production Example A1] A flask equipped with a heater, thermometer, stirrer, distillation column, nitrogen inlet tube, and vacuum device was charged with 0.75 mol of isophthalic acid (IPA), 0.2 mol of sebacic acid (SebA), 0.05 mol of 5-dimethylsodium sulfoisophthalate (SIPM), 2 mol of diethylene glycol (DEG), and 0.000035 mol of Orgatix TA-8 (titanium tetraisopropoxide, manufactured by Matsumoto Fine Chemicals) as a polymerization catalyst. The temperature in the flask was gradually increased to 200 ° C while introducing nitrogen, and the esterification reaction was carried out for 3 hours. Thereafter, the temperature in the flask was increased to 250 ° C, and the pressure was reduced to 100 Pa, and the polycondensation reaction was carried out for 3 hours. In this way, polyester resin (1) was obtained. The glass transition temperature of polyester resin (1) was -5 ° C, and the weight average molecular weight was 40,000.

[0128] [Production Examples A2 to A5] Polyester resins (2) to (5) were produced in the same manner as in Production Example A1, except that the amounts of raw material monomers charged were changed as shown in Table 1.

[0129]

[0130] IPA: Isophthalic acid SebA: Sebacic acid SIPM: Sodium dimethyl 5-sulfoisophthalate DEG: Diethylene glycol MPD: 3-methyl-1,5-pentanediol DOP: Di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate DEP: Diethyl phthalate

[0131] [Production Example B1] Polyester resin (1) and THF were charged into a sample bottle to prepare a solution of polyester resin (1) with a solids concentration of 30% by mass. The obtained solution was applied to a 50 μm thick PET film so that the thickness after drying was 20 μm, and dried in a 100 ° C environment for 2 minutes to remove the solvent, forming a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. A release-treated PET film was attached to the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer opposite the surface in contact with the PET film. In this way, a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet having a 50 μm thick PET film, a 20 μm thick pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and a release-treated PET film was obtained.

[0132] [Production Examples B2 to B5] Pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets were produced in the same manner as in Production Example B1, except that the polyester resin (1) was changed to one of the polyester resins (2) to (5) shown in Table 2.

[0133] [Evaluation] <Adhesive strength> Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and a plasticizer with an SP value of 9.5 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2 and di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DOP) of , and then the obtained mixture was calendered at 170°C to produce a polyvinyl chloride resin film containing 23 mass% of DOP (hereinafter also referred to as "polyvinyl chloride resin film (1)").

[0134] The plasticizer has an SP value of 10.5 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2A polyvinyl chloride resin film (hereinafter also referred to as "polyvinyl chloride resin film (2)") was produced in the same manner as above, except that diethyl phthalate (DEP) of 100 ppm was used.

[0135] The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet was cut into a size of 20 mm x 100 mm, and the release-treated PET film was peeled off from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The exposed pressure-sensitive adhesive layer was attached to polyvinyl chloride resin film (1) or (2), and a 2 kg roller was rolled back and forth three times to prepare a test piece. Two test pieces were prepared for each test. One test piece was left in a 23°C and 50% RH environment for 20 minutes (referred to as "initial" in Table 2), and the other test piece was left in a 60°C environment for 24 hours (referred to as "60°C x 24 hr" in Table 2). The edge of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet was pulled at a speed of 300 mm / min in a 180° direction relative to the surface of the polyvinyl chloride resin film, and the adhesive strength was measured. The larger the ratio of the adhesive strength after 60°C x 24 hr to the initial adhesive strength, the less likely the adhesive strength was to decrease.

[0136] <Holding Power> Under conditions of 23°C and 50% RH, the release-treated PET film of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet was peeled off, and the exposed pressure-sensitive adhesive layer was attached to a SUS plate, followed by a pressure-bonding treatment in which a 2 kg roller was rolled back and forth three times. The adhesion area was 25 mm x 25 mm. 20 minutes after application, a 500 g load was applied parallel to the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer surface at 40°C and dry conditions, and the displacement distance (mm) of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet from its original position after 1 hour was measured. The smaller the displacement distance of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet, the higher the holding power of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet.
