Abstract

To provide an adhesive sheet, the sheet increasing manufacturing efficiency of products including an adhesive agent layer, while using the adhesive agent layer to which an electro-conductive organic polymer compound is added. An adhesive sheet for use in applying a wiring board to a surface onto which the wiring board is to be applied, the adhesive sheet is constituted by an adhesive agent layer including an electro-conductive organic polymer compound and an adhesive material; a first releasing sheet provided on front surface of the adhesive agent layer; and a second releasing sheet provided on a back surface corresponding to a back surface of the front surface in the adhesive agent layer.

Claims (24)

1. An adhesive sheet attached to a wiring board, the adhesive sheet comprising:

an adhesive agent layer comprising an electro-conductive organic polymer compound and an adhesive material; and

a releasing sheet provided on a back surface of the adhesive agent layer,

wherein the wiring board is attached on a front surface of the adhesive agent layer opposite the back surface of the adhesive agent layer, and configured for attachment to a surface of a living body to measure a biosignal of the living body,

wherein the adhesive sheet has a contact impedance being less than 150 kΩ against the living body when rectangular waves of 10 Hz and ±0.04 μA are supplied,

wherein the adhesive agent layer between the releasing sheet and the wiring board is a single layer,

wherein a thickness of the adhesive agent layer is 12 μm to 14 μm,

wherein the adhesive agent layer comprises poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) as the electro-conductive organic polymer compound and polystyrene sulfonate ion (PSS),

wherein an adhesive force of the front surface of the adhesive agent layer to the wiring board is different from an adhesive force of the back surface of the adhesive agent layer to the releasing sheet.

2. The adhesive sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive material comprises an aqueous emulsion adhesive agent.

3. The adhesive sheet according to claim 2 , wherein the aqueous emulsion adhesive agent is an acrylic emulsion adhesive agent.

4. The adhesive sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive agent layer has a plurality of islands isolated from each other.

5. The adhesive sheet according to claim 1 , wherein adhesive force of the adhesive agent layer against a living body is 0.08 N/mm or more and 0.3 N/mm or less.

6. The adhesive sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and the polystyrene sulfonate ion (PSS) in the adhesive agent layer are in liquid form.

7. The adhesive sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive agent layer does not comprise silver-coated powder.

8. The adhesive sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive agent layer does not comprise (a) a layer obtained by impregnating a nonwoven fabric and (b) a layer obtained by coating a nonwoven fabric.

9. A biosensor comprising the adhesive sheet attached to the wiring board according to claim 1 .

10. A method of measuring a biosignal of a living body using the biosensor of claim 9 .

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the adhesive material comprises an aqueous emulsion adhesive agent.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the aqueous emulsion adhesive agent is an acrylic emulsion adhesive agent.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the adhesive agent layer is a single layer.

14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the adhesive agent layer has a plurality of islands isolated from each other.

15. The method of claim 10 , wherein a thickness of the adhesive agent layer is 20 μm or less.

16. The method of claim 10 , wherein adhesive force of the adhesive agent layer against a living body is 0.08 N/mm or more and 0.3 N/mm or less.
