Innovation Solution

An acrylic adhesive composition comprising 120-250 parts by weight of acrylic monomers, 0.1-1 part by weight of azo initiator, 0.5-1 part by weight of silica filler, 1.5-2.5 parts by weight of crosslinking agent, and 0.5-1 part by weight of anti-static agent, which are polymerized to achieve a weight average molecular weight of 450,000 to 900,000, enhancing adhesive properties and reducing aging variations.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Temperature

If existing acrylic adhesives are used for protective films, then initial adhesive force is achieved, but adhesive force increases under high temperature conditions causing contamination issues

Engineering Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent modifies the chemical composition parameters of the acrylic adhesive by incorporating specific functional monomers (carboxyl-containing and hydroxyl-containing monomers) and controlling the molecular weight distribution. This compositional parameter change enables the adhesive to maintain stable adhesive force under high temperature conditions without excessive increase, thereby preventing contamination issues

Inventive Principle:
