Transparent substrate
The present invention provides a transparent substrate that significantly prevents the progress of a crack in a thin-plate glass and the rupture of the glass, and is excellent in bending property and flexibility. A transparent substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a thin-plate glass having a thickness of 10 μm to 100 μm; and a resin layer on at least one side of the thin-plate glass, wherein a shrinkage stress of the resin layer on the thin-plate glass is 5 MPa or more.
1. A transparent substrate, comprising:
a thin-plate glass having a thickness of 10 μm to 100 μm; and
a resin layer on at least one side of the thin-plate glass,
wherein the resin layer comprises a thermoplastic resin,
wherein a shrinkage stress of the resin layer on the thin-plate glass is 5 MPa to 25 MPa, and
wherein the resin layer has a thickness of 5 μm to 80 μm.
2. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio (d2/d1) between the thickness (d1) of the thin-plate glass and a total thickness (d2) of the resin layer is 0.3 to 4.
3. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 or 2 , wherein the resin layer has a modulus of elasticity at 25° C. of 1.0 GPa or more.
4. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the resin layer has a fracture toughness value at 25° C. of 1.5 MPa·m1/2 or more.
5. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the resin has a glass transition temperature of 150° C. to 350° C.
6. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the resin layer is obtained by
applying a solution comprising the thermoplastic resin to a surface on at least one side of the thin-plate glass to form an applied layer and
drying the applied layer.
7. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the thin-plate glass and the resin layer are placed through an adhesion layer.
8. The transparent substrate according to claim 7 , wherein the resin layer is obtained by
attaching a thermoplastic resin film to a surface on at least one side of the thin-plate glass through the adhesion layer to form a laminate and
subjecting the laminate to a heating treatment.
9. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , further comprising a hard coat layer having a pencil hardness of H or more on a side of the resin layer opposite to the thin-plate glass.
10. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the transparent substrate is used as a substrate for a display device.
11. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the transparent substrate is used as a substrate for a solar cell.
12. The transparent substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the transparent substrate is used as a substrate for a lighting device.
