Abstract

The present disclosure provides an adhesive composition and a surface protective film including the same, which have low low-speed and high-speed peel forces and a high residual adhesion rate.

Claims (22)

1 . An adhesive composition comprising:

a hydroxyl group-containing urethane resin;

an isocyanate-based curing agent; and

a (meth)acrylate copolymer,

wherein the (meth)acrylate copolymer is obtained by polymerization from a monomer mixture which contains a (meth)acrylate monomer containing a hydroxyl group, a (meth)acrylate monomer containing a fluorinated substituent, an alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and an alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer having 12 to 22 carbon atoms,

wherein the (meth)acrylate copolymer has a weight-average molecular weight of 20,000 to 70,000,

wherein the (meth)acrylate copolymer is contained in an amount of 0.5 to 5 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the hydroxyl group-containing urethane resin, and

wherein a surface protective film comprising an adhesive layer formed from the adhesive composition has a peel force of 30 gf/in or less as measured at a peel angle of 180° and a peel speed of 20 m/min after attachment to glass.

2 . The adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the hydroxyl group-containing urethane resin has a weight-average molecular weight of 50,000 to 200,000.

3 . The adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the isocyanate-based curing agent is contained in an amount of 10 to 30 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the hydroxyl group-containing urethane resin.

4 . The adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the monomer mixture contains more than 0 to not more than 10 wt % of the (meth)acrylate monomer containing a hydroxyl group, more than 0 to not more than 10 wt % of the (meth)acrylate monomer containing a fluorinated substituent, 70 to 95 wt % of the alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and 1 to 10 wt % of the alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer having 12 to 22 carbon atoms.

5 . The adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the (meth)acrylate monomer containing a hydroxyl group comprises at least one of 2-hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate, 4-hydroxybutyl (meth)acrylate, 6-hydroxyhexyl (meth)acrylate, 8-hydroxyoctyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxyethylene glycol (meth)acrylate, and 2-hydroxypropylene glycol (meth)acrylate.

6 . The adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the (meth)acrylate monomer containing a fluorinated substituent comprises at least one of trifluoroethyl (meth)acrylate, tetrafluoro-n-propyl (meth)acrylate, tetrafluoro-t-pentyl (meth)acrylate, hexafluorobutyl (meth)acrylate, hexafluoro-t-hexyl (meth)acrylate, hexafluoro-2,4-bis (trifluoromethyl) pentyl (meth)acrylate, hexafluorobutyl (meth)acrylate, hexafluoroisopropyl (meth)acrylate, heptafluorobutyl (meth)acrylate, octafluoropentyl (meth)acrylate, nonafluoropentyl (meth)acrylate, dodecafluoroheptyl (meth)acrylate, dodecafluorooctyl (meth)acrylate, tridecafluorooctyl (meth)acrylate, tridecafluoroheptyl (meth)acrylate, hexadecafluorodecyl (meth)acrylate, heptadecafluorodecyl (meth)acrylate, octadecafluoroundecyl (meth)acrylate, nonadecafluoroundecyl (meth)acrylate, and eicosafluorododecyl (meth)acrylate.

7 . The adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer having 1 to 10 carbon atoms comprises at least one of methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate, n-propyl (meth)acrylate, isopropyl (meth)acrylate, n-butyl (meth)acrylate, t-butyl (meth)acrylate, sec-butyl (meth)acrylate, pentyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylbutyl (meth)acrylate, n-octyl (meth)acrylate, isooctyl (meth)acrylate, and isononyl (meth)acrylate.

8 . The adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer having 12 to 22 carbon atoms comprises at least one of lauryl (meth)acrylate, tetradecyl (meth)acrylate, stearyl (meth)acrylate, cetyl (meth)acrylate, behenyl (meth)acrylate, and eicosyl (meth)acrylate.

9 . A surface protective film comprising a release film and a substrate film,

wherein the substrate film comprises: a first substrate layer; an antistatic layer positioned on at least one surface of the first substrate layer; and an adhesive layer comprising a cured product of the adhesive composition according to claim 1 , and

the release film and the adhesive layer are in direct contact with each other.

10 . The surface protective film of claim 9 , wherein the release film comprises: a second substrate layer; antistatic layers positioned on both surfaces of the second substrate layer; and a release layer.

11 . The surface protective film of claim 9 , which has a peel force of 30 gf/in or less as measured at a peel angle of 180° and a peel speed of 20 m/min after attachment to glass.

12 . The surface protective film of claim 9 , which has a peel force of 4 gf/in or less as measured at a peel angle of 180° and a peel speed of 0.3 m/min after attachment to glass.

13 . The surface protective film of claim 9 , which has a residual adhesion rate of 70% or more, as measured after the surface protective film is attached to glass, stored under conditions of 60° C. temperature and 90% relative humidity for 10 days, and then peeled off from the glass.
