Abstract

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a flexible display device comprising a touch sensor, capable of controlling process dispersion and inhibiting cracks during the transfer of the touch sensor.

Claims (13)

1. A method for manufacturing a flexible display device, comprising the steps of:

(i) attaching a substrate film with a UV reactive adhesive to a touch sensor formed on a carrier substrate;

(ii) separating the carrier substrate from the touch sensor to which the substrate film is attached;

(iii) attaching an optical film to the touch sensor from which the carrier substrate is separated; and

(iv) irradiating the UV reactive adhesive with UV rays to cure the adhesive and removing the substrate film with the UV reactive adhesive,

wherein the UV reactive adhesive comprises an acryl-based copolymer, a cross-linking agent, a polyfunctional acrylate, and a photoinitiator,

wherein the cross-linking agent is one or more selected from the group consisting of an isocyanate cross-linking agent, an epoxy cross-linking agent, a peroxide cross-linking agent, a metal chelate cross-linking agent, and an oxazoline cross-linking agent,

wherein the acryl-based copolymer is crosslinked with the cross-linking agent without UV radiation in step (i), thereby imparting adhesion strength,

wherein the polyfunctional acrylate is photopolymerized upon UV radiation in step (iv), thereby reducing peeling strength of the UV reactive adhesive,

wherein all the steps of (i) to (iv) are carried out by a sheet-to-sheet method, and

wherein a thickness of the substrate film is 75 to 200 μm.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier substrate is a glass substrate.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the optical film is a polarizing plate or a display panel.
