Abstract

A protective film of the present invention is used at the time of performing heat bending on the resin substrate, and includes a base material layer and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer adhered to a resin substrate, in which the base material layer includes a first layer which is positioned on an opposite side of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer and has a melting point of 150° C. or higher, and includes a second layer which is positioned on a pressure sensitive adhesive layer side and has a melting point of lower than 150° C., the pressure sensitive adhesive layer has a melting point of lower than 150° C., and MFR of a thermoplastic resin contained in the second layer, which is measured in conformity with JIS K7210, is in a range of 0.5 g/10 min to 4.0 g/10 min.

Claims (23)

1. A protective film for performing heat bending on a resin substrate, comprising:

a base material layer; and

a pressure sensitive adhesive layer configured to adhere to the resin substrate such that the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is positioned between the base material layer and the resin substrate,

wherein the base material layer comprises a laminate including a first layer and a second layer such that the first layer is positioned on an opposite side of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer, includes a thermoplastic resin and has a melting point of 150° C. or higher, and that the second layer is positioned on a pressure sensitive adhesive layer side, includes a thermoplastic resin and has a melting point of lower than 130° C., the pressure sensitive adhesive layer includes a polyolefin having a melting point of lower than 150° C. and an elastomer such that a content of the elastomer in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is in a range of 3 wt % to 50 wt %, the thermoplastic resin in the second layer is a linear low-density polyethylene, and a melt flow rate of the thermoplastic resin in the second layer measured under a condition of a heating temperature of 190° C. and a load of 2.16 kgf in conformity with JIS K7210 is in a range of 0.9 g/10 min to 3.0 g/10 min.

2. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the thermoplastic resin in the first layer is a polyolefin.

3. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the content of the elastomer in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is a range of 5 wt % to 30 wt %.

4. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the elastomer in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer includes a styrene-olefin-styrene block copolymer.

5. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein an average thickness of the first layer is in a range of 10 μm to 80 μm.

6. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein an average thickness of the second layer is in a range of 10 μm to 60 μm.

7. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the protective film is provided in a pair such that the pair of protective films are configured to be attached to both surfaces of a resin substrate, respectively.

8. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein a coating layer comprising a single layer or a laminate having at least one of a polycarbonate resin layer, a polyamide resin layer, and a cellulose resin layer is positioned on at least one surface of a resin substrate to which the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is configured to adhere.

9. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the heat bending includes subjecting the resin substrate to the heat bending by press molding or vacuum molding.

10. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein the content of the elastomer in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is a range of 5 wt % to 30 wt %.

11. The protective film according to claim 10 , wherein the elastomer in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer includes a styrene-olefin-styrene block copolymer.

12. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein an average thickness of the first layer is in a range of 10 μm to 80 μm.

13. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein an average thickness of the second layer is in a range of 10 μm to 60 μm.

14. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein the protective film is provided in a pair such that the pair of protective films are configured to be attached to both surfaces of a resin substrate, respectively.

15. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein a coating layer comprising a single layer or a laminate having at least one of a polycarbonate resin layer, a polyamide resin layer, and a cellulose resin layer is positioned on at least one surface of a resin substrate to which the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is configured to adhere.

16. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein the heat bending includes subjecting the resin substrate to the heat bending by press molding or vacuum molding.

17. The protective film according to claim 4 , wherein an average thickness of the first layer is in a range of 10 μm to 80 μm.

18. The protective film according to claim 4 , wherein an average thickness of the second layer is in a range of 10 μm to 60 μm.

19. The protective film according to claim 4 , wherein the protective film is provided in a pair such that the pair of protective films are configured to be attached to both surfaces of a resin substrate, respectively.

20. The protective film according to claim 4 , wherein a coating layer comprising a single layer or a laminate having at least one of a polycarbonate resin layer, a polyamide resin layer, and a cellulose resin layer is positioned on at least one surface of a resin substrate to which the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is configured to adhere.
