Resin composition and method of producing laminate
Provided is a resin composition for forming a resin layer of a laminate by coating, the resin composition having a thixotropic index at 25° C. of from 3 to 10, and the laminate includes a pair of members and the resin layer arranged between the pair of members.
1. A resin composition for forming a resin layer of a laminate by coating, the resin composition having a thixotropic index at 25° C. of from 3 to 10 and comprising an epoxy monomer having a mesogenic skeleton and a curing agent, and the laminate comprising a pair of members and the resin layer arranged between the pair of members,
the thixotropic index being a ratio (viscosity B/viscosity A) of a viscosity B (Pa·s) measured under conditions of 25° C. and 0.5 min −1 (rpm) using an E-type viscometer with respect to a viscosity A (Pa·s) measured under conditions of 25° C. and 5 min −1 (rpm) using an E-type viscometer.
2. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the epoxy monomer having a mesogenic skeleton comprises a compound represented by the following Formula (I):
wherein, in Formula (I), each of R 1 to R 4 independently represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
3. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the curing agent comprises a phenol novolac resin.
4. A method of producing a laminate, the method comprising:
forming a resin layer using the resin composition according to claim 1 on a first member; and
arranging a second member on the resin layer.
5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the epoxy monomer having a mesogenic skeleton comprises a compound represented by the following Formula (I):
wherein, in Formula (I), each of R 1 to R 4 independently represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the curing agent comprises a phenol novolac resin.
