Display device
A display device includes a display module, a window on the display module, and a protective layer on the window, and including a first base layer, a second base layer on the first base layer, a base adhesive layer between the first base layer and the second base layer, and including a silicone-based adhesive, and a surface coating layer on the second base layer, having a single-film structure, and including a hard coating material and an anti-fingerprint material.
1 . A display device comprising:
a display module;
a window on the display module; and
a protective layer on the window, and comprising:
a first base layer,
a second base layer on the first base layer,
a base adhesive layer between the first base layer and the second base layer, and comprising a silicone-based adhesive,
a surface coating layer on the second base layer, having a single-film structure, and comprising a hard coating material and an anti-fingerprint material;
an adhesive layer between the first base layer and the window; and
a hard coating layer between the adhesive layer and the first base layer.
2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the base adhesive layer has a tensile modulus of about 0.1 GPa to about 4.5 GPa.
3 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the base adhesive layer has a thickness of about 3 μm to about 4.5 μm.
4 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein an edge part of the base adhesive layer is more inward than each of an edge part of the first base layer and an edge part of the second base layer.
5 . The display device of claim 4 , wherein the edge part of the base adhesive layer is more inward than the edge part of the first base layer by a first width, more inward than the edge part of the second base layer by a second width, and
wherein each of the first width and the second width is about 450 μm to about 600 μm.
6 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein, when viewed from a plan view, the base adhesive layer has a smaller area than each of the first base layer and the second base layer.
7 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first base layer and the second base layer each have a modulus of about 3.5 GPa to about 5.0 GPa.
8 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the first base layer and the second base layer has a thickness of about 35 μm to about 50 μm.
