Abstract

Provided are an encapsulating film, an electronic device and a method of manufacturing the same. An encapsulating film having excellent moisture blocking property, handleability, workability and durability and a structure including a diode encapsulated with the encapsulating film may be provided.

Claims (21)

1. An encapsulating film, comprising:

a first layer comprising a resin component having a water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of 50 g/m 2 ·day or less; and

a second layer comprising a curable resin composition and having a ratio (M 1 /M 2 ) of the tensile modulus (M 1 ) at 25° C. after curing of the first layer to the tensile modulus (M 2 ) at 25° C. after curing of the second layer of 1 ×10 −6 to 0.5,

wherein the second layer is disposed on one or both surfaces of the first layer,

wherein the first layer is a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer; wherein the first layer has a contact angle of 80 to 150 degrees; and

wherein the WVTR is measured in a thickness direction of a layer which is formed from the resin component to have a thickness of 100μm at 100° F. and a relative humidity of 100%.

2. The film according to claim 1 , wherein the tensile modulus at 25° C. after curing of the first layer is 0.001 to 400MPa.

3. The film according to claim 1 , wherein the tensile modulus at 25° C. after curing of the second layer is 400 to 1000 MPa.

4. The film according to claim 1 , wherein the first layer further includes a moisture scavenger.

5. The film according to claim 4 , wherein the first layer includes the moisture scavenger of 5 to 250 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the resin component.

6. The film according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer includes the moisture scavenger at less than 5 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of a total solid content of the second layer.

7. The film according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer is a solid or semi-solid at room temperature.

8. The film according to claim 7 , wherein the second layer is in a non-cured state.

9. The film according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer includes the curable resin composition in a film.

10. An electronic device comprising:

an upper substrate;

a bottom substrate; and

an encapsulating layer which includes the film of claim 1 encapsulating a diode between the upper and bottom substrates.

11. The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein the diode is formed on a surface of the bottom substrate facing the upper substrate, and the second layer of the film is in contact with the bottom substrate.

12. A method of manufacturing an electronic device, comprising:

laminating the film of claim 1 on a substrate on which a diode is formed such that the second layer of the film is in contact with the diode.
