Abstract

An information handling system includes an organic light emitting diode layer, an optically clear adhesive layer, and a flexible glass substrate. A surface film includes a self-healing polymer layer, the self-healing polymer layer including a self-healing polymer.

Claims (31)

1. An information handling system, comprising:

a processor in communication with an organic light emitting diode layer;

an optically clear adhesive layer;

a flexible glass substrate; and

a surface film including a self-healing polymer layer, the self-healing polymer layer including a self-healing polymer, the surface film includes an elastomer layer positioned between the flexible glass substrate and the self-healing polymer layer.

2. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the optically clear adhesive layer includes an elastomer.

3. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the self-healing polymer layer includes antiglare particles.

4. The information handling system of claim 3 , wherein the antiglare particles have a diameter of between about ten nm and about seventy nm.

5. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein self-healing polymer layer has a thickness between about ten nm and about five hundred nm.

6. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the surface film has a dynamic coefficient of friction of between about 0.1 and about 0.5.

7. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the self-healing polymer is a humidity activated self-healing polymer, a thermally activated self-healing polymer, a photo activated self-healing polymer, or any combination thereof.

8. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the flexible glass has a thickness of less than about one hundred fifty microns.

9. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the thickness of the flexible glass to a thickness of the surface film is between about one and about one hundred.

10. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the flexible glass has a minimum bend radius of less than about fifty mm.

11. A flexible display, comprising:

an organic light emitting diode layer;

an optically clear adhesive layer;

a flexible glass substrate; and

a surface film including a self-healing polymer layer, the self-healing polymer layer including a self-healing polymer, wherein the self-healing polymer layer includes antiglare particles having a diameter of between about 10 nm and about 70 nm.

12. The flexible display of claim 11 , wherein the optically clear adhesive layer includes an elastomer.

13. The flexible display of claim 11 , wherein the surface film includes an elastomer layer positioned between the flexible glass substrate and the self-healing polymer layer.

14. The flexible display of claim 11 , wherein self-healing polymer layer has a thickness between about 10 nm and about 500 nm.

15. The flexible display of claim 11 , wherein the surface film has a dynamic coefficient of friction of between about 0.1 and about 0.5.

16. The flexible display of claim 11 , wherein the surface film has a haze of not greater than 7%.

17. A flexible display, comprising:

an organic light emitting diode layer;

an optically clear adhesive layer;

a flexible glass substrate; and

a surface film including a self-healing polymer layer and an elastomer layer positioned between the flexible glass substrate and the self-healing polymer layer, the self-healing polymer layer including a self-healing polymer;

wherein the flexible glass has a thickness of less than about 150 microns;

wherein the ratio of the thickness of the flexible glass to a thickness of the surface film is between about 1 and about 100, and wherein the flexible glass has a minimum bend radius of less than about 50 mm.
