Solution Overview

Problem

Existing adhesive sheets fail to balance adhesiveness, flatness, and reusability, often resulting in inadequate bonding duration, adhesive residue contamination, and poor peelability.

Innovation Solution

An adhesive sheet with a controlled 180° peel adhesive force range of 0.1 N to 12 N when adhered to a stainless steel plate, combined with specific surface roughness and adhesive layer composition, including a base polymer, tackifying resin, and crosslinking agent, to ensure excellent adhesiveness, flatness, and reworkability.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If adhesive sheets have strong adhesion properties, then bonding durability is improved, but adhesive residue contamination increases after peeling

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebonding durabilityVSAvoidadhesive residue contamination
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent controls the 180° peel adhesive force within a specific range (0.1 N to 6 N after 0.5h, 6 N to 12 N after 24h) to balance bonding durability and peelability. This parameter optimization ensures strong initial adhesion while preventing excessive residue upon removal, directly resolving the contradiction between bonding strength and residue-free peeling.

2Reliability

If adhesive sheets have good adhesiveness and flatness, then adhesion to adherend is improved, but reusability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadhesivenessVSAvoidreusability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent optimizes the peel adhesive force parameters to enable controlled peeling after use. By setting specific force ranges that allow complete removal without damage, the adhesive sheet can be reused multiple times while maintaining its adhesiveness and flatness properties during each application cycle.

Inventive Principle:

3Ease of operation

If adhesive sheets are designed for easy peeling, then peelability is improved, but bonding duration decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovepeelabilityVSAvoidbonding duration
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDuration of action of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent establishes different peel adhesive force ranges for different time periods: 0.1 N to 6 N after 0.5h and 6 N to 12 N after 24h. This time-dependent parameter control ensures the adhesive maintains strong bonding for extended durations while still allowing controlled, residue-free removal when needed, balancing peelability with bonding duration.
