Abstract

An adhesive film or the like which is a laminate containing a substrate film containing a polycarbonate, a primer layer laminated on the surface of the substrate film, and an adhesive layer laminated on the surface of the primer layer opposite the substrate film.

Claims (26)

1 . An adhesive film which is a laminate comprising:

a substrate film containing a polycarbonate;

a primer layer laminated at least on a surface of one side of the substrate film; and

an adhesive layer laminated on a surface of the primer layer on the other side from the substrate film,

wherein

the primer layer comprises a UV curable urethane acrylate resin,

the substrate film and the primer layer are in direct contact; and

the urethane acrylate resin contains at least a mixture of a hexafunctional urethane acrylate and a bifunctional acrylate, wherein the bifunctional acrylate is represented by the following structure:

wherein R is hydrogen or a methyl group, or

the urethane acrylate resin has an isocyanate-derived structural unit and a structural unit derived from a compound having a (meth) acryloyloxy group and a hydroxy group.

2 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the surface of the primer layer on the adhesive layer side has a wetting index of 30 (mN/m) or more in accordance with JISK6768.

3 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer contains at least one of a silicone adhesive agent, an acrylic adhesive agent and a urethane adhesive agent.

4 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the primer layer is 2 μm or more but less than or equal to 10 μm.

5 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the primer layer contains any of an antistatic agent, an UV shielding agent, a near-infrared shielding agent, a light diffusion agent and metal particles.

6 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the adhesive layer is 10 μm or more but less than or equal to 100 μm.

7 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the substrate film is 30 um or more but less than or equal to 200 μm.

8 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the adhesive film is 40 μm or more but less than or equal to 300 μm.

9 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive film has peel adhesion of 0.001 (N/25 mm) or more but less than or equal to 3 (N/25 mm) in a peel test where the adhesive film is laminated on a polycarbonate mirror-finished film having a thickness of 0.05 (mm) in an environment of 23° C. and relative humidity of 50%, and then peeled off in the 180° direction at 152 mm/min.

10 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the glass transition temperature of the substrate film is higher than 140° C. but lower than 160° C.

11 . The adhesive film according to claim 1 , wherein the refractive index of the polycarbonate composing the substrate film is 1.55-1.65.

12 . A laminate comprising a molded resin body and the adhesive film according to claim 1 attached to the molded resin body.

13 . A method for fabricating the adhesive film according to claim 1 , the method comprising:

applying a primer solution onto a surface of the substrate film to form the primer layer; and

applying an adhesive agent to the surface of the primer layer on the other side from the substrate film to form the adhesive layer.

14 . The laminate according to claim 12 , wherein the molded resin body is a polycarbonate film.

15 . The laminate according to claim 12 , wherein the molded resin body is a polyimide film.
