Description

Laminate and touch panel
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a laminate and a touch panel.
Background
In recent years, the market for smart phones and tablet computers has been expanding, and these devices are generally mounted with touch panels. Touch panels are laminates of various materials, and adhesives are used for laminating the various materials (see patent documents 1 and 2).
Polycarbonate is often used as a material for the support and the cover member (surface support) of the touch panel. The polycarbonate contains moisture due to the production process thereof, and when the adhesive sheet is stuck to a polycarbonate plate and subjected to a durability test (for example, an evaluation test of blister resistance and whitening resistance), foaming due to the moisture occurs.
Further, although the use of touch panels for automobiles is also expanding, durability higher than that of general use is required in automobile applications for the reason of high temperature and high humidity in summer. However, conventional adhesives cannot satisfy high durability conditions (high temperature and high humidity conditions) expected for automotive use.

Detailed Description
The following describes in detail embodiments for carrying out the present invention. In the present specification, acrylic acid and methacrylic acid are also collectively referred to as "(meth) acrylic acid".
[ laminate ]
In the laminate of the present invention, the first layer and the second layer are laminated via the adhesive layer. For example, the laminate of the present invention has a first layer, an adhesive layer, and a second layer in this order in the lamination direction.
The second layer is a polycarbonate sheet having a weight ratio (weight after placement/weight before placement) of 1.0010 to 1.0050 before and after 72 hours of placement in an atmosphere of 85 ℃/85% RH. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed from a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition containing a (meth) acrylic copolymer (A) and an isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B), wherein the (meth) acrylic copolymer (A) is a copolymer of monomer components including a polymerizable macromonomer and a crosslinkable functional group-containing monomer, and the isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B) has an alkyleneoxy group having 2 or more carbon atoms.
<First layer>
Examples of the first layer include plastic films such as polyesters (e.g., polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyethylene naphthalate (PEN)), Polycarbonates (PC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyurethane, polyamide, acrylonitrile-styrene-butadiene copolymer, and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer; a glass plate; a transparent conductive film described later; plastic film with transparent conductive film, and glass plate with transparent conductive film.
The first layer is, for example, a layer constituting a touch panel unit described later.
The first layer is, for example, an optical film including a polarizing plate. As the polarizing plate, a polarizing plate in which an appropriate transparent protective film is laminated on one side or both sides of a polarizer is generally used. Examples of the transparent protective film include cellulose resins, cyclic polyolefin resins, (meth) acrylic resins, phenylmaleimide resins, and polycarbonate resins.
The first layer may be, for example, a substrate derived from an adhesive sheet having the substrate and an adhesive layer formed on one surface of the substrate. The substrate may be the above plastic film. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed from the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition containing a (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) and an isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B) having an alkyleneoxy group having 2 or more carbon atoms.
The thickness of the first layer is usually 5 to 1000. mu.m, preferably 10 to 500. mu.m.
<Second layer>
The second layer is a polycarbonate sheet (hereinafter also referred to as "PC sheet").
The weight ratio of the PC board before and after being left for 72 hours in an environment of 85 ℃/85% RH (the weight after the left/the weight before the left) is 1.0010 to 1.0050, preferably 1.0015 to 1.0040, and more preferably 1.0018 to 1.0035. The above weight ratio is a value determined according to the following definition. The PC board was left to stand at 85 ℃ for 72 hours in a dry environment, and the weight thereof (weight 1: weight before standing in a moist heat environment) was measured immediately after taking out from the above environment. Thereafter, the PC board was left to stand at 85 ℃ C/85% RH for 72 hours, and immediately after taking out from the above-mentioned environment, the weight thereof (weight 2: weight after leaving in a moist heat environment) was measured. The weight ratio (weight 2/weight 1) was calculated from the weights 1 and 2 before and after the introduction of the 85 ℃/85% RH atmosphere.
In the conventional laminate, if the water absorption capacity of the PC board is low and the weight ratio is less than 1.0010, no problem is found in the durability test, but if the water absorption capacity of the PC board is high and the weight ratio is 1.0010 or more, foaming or whitening may occur in the durability test. In the laminate of the present invention, even if the weight ratio of the PC board is 1.0010 or more, the blister resistance and the whitening resistance are excellent. This is because the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer constituting the laminate of the present invention easily absorbs moisture and has high elasticity enough to suppress the occurrence of the foaming phenomenon.
The density of the PC board is usually 1.000 to 1.120g/cm3Preferably 1.050 to 1.110g/cm3More preferably 1.080 to 1.100g/cm3. In the conventional laminate, if the density of the PC board exceeds 1.120g/cm3There is no problem in the durability test, but if the density is 1.120g/cm3The following is in the durability testSometimes blistering or whitening occurs. In the laminate of the present invention, the density of the PC board is 1.120g/cm3Hereinafter, the occurrence of foaming, whitening, and the like in the durability test can also be suppressed.
The second layer is, for example, a PC board as a transparent member constituting a touch panel unit described later. The second layer is, for example, a PC board to which an optical film is attached via the adhesive layer.
The thickness of the PC board is usually 0.3 to 3mm, preferably 0.5 to 2 mm.
<Adhesive layer>
The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed from the above-mentioned pressure-sensitive adhesive composition containing a (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) described below and an isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B) having an alkyleneoxy group having 2 or more carbon atoms (hereinafter, simply referred to as "isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B)").
By using the adhesive composition, an adhesive layer having blister resistance and whitening resistance even under high-durability conditions and having good adhesion to the first and second layers can be formed.
(meth) acrylic copolymer (A)
The (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) is a copolymer of monomer components including a polymerizable macromonomer and a crosslinkable functional group-containing monomer, and can be obtained by copolymerizing the monomer components. The monomer component is generally a monomer containing a polymerizable unsaturated group.
<Polymerizable macromonomer>
The monomer component contains a polymerizable macromonomer.
The polymerizable macromonomer has a polymerizable unsaturated group. Examples of the polymerizable unsaturated group include an ethylenically unsaturated double bond. For example, the polymer may have a (meth) acryloyl group at the end.
In the polymerization of the monomer component, the polymerizable macromonomer is incorporated into the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) by, for example, a radical polymerization reaction with the other monomer forming the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) among the polymerizable unsaturated groups. When regarded as the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a), a side chain based on the polymerizable macromonomer is formed. The side chains prevent the molecules of the (meth) acrylic copolymer (A) from being concentrated with each other.
The polymerizable macromonomer is, for example, a polymer having a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of usually 500 to 10 ten thousand, preferably 1000 to 5 ten thousand. The weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the polymerizable macromonomer in the present specification means a weight average molecular weight in terms of standard polystyrene measured by a Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) method.
The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the polymerizable macromonomer is preferably 50 to 180 ℃, more preferably 80 to 150 ℃. Therefore, the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) is hard from the viewpoint of Tg, and the resultant pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is excellent in blister resistance. The Tg of the polymerizable macromonomer can be determined by the formula of Fox, and when a commercially available product is used, the Tg can be determined by a value described in a manual.
Examples of the monomer constituting the polymer chain (main chain) portion of the polymerizable macromonomer include alkyl (meth) acrylates such as methyl (meth) acrylate, ethyl (meth) acrylate, n-butyl (meth) acrylate, isobutyl (meth) acrylate, and t-butyl (meth) acrylate, the alkyl group preferably having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, styrene monomers such as (meth) acrylonitrile, (styrene), and α -methylstyrene, and one kind of the monomer may be used alone or two or more kinds may be used.
The polymerizable macromonomer is preferably a (meth) acrylic macromonomer, a (meth) acrylonitrile macromonomer, or a styrene macromonomer, and can be produced by various known methods, for example, a method described in paragraph [0039] of Japanese patent laid-open No. 2013-018227.
Examples of the polymerizable macromonomer that can be used include commercially available ones, for example, a macromonomer in which a main chain constituting monomer is methyl methacrylate (product name: 45% AA-6(AA-6S), AA-6; manufactured by Toyo Synthesis Co., Ltd., manufactured by Bay, Ltd.), a macromonomer in which a main chain is a copolymer of styrene/acrylonitrile (product name: AN-6S; manufactured by Toyo Synthesis Co., Ltd.), and a macromonomer in which a main chain constituting monomer is butyl acrylate (product name: AB-6; manufactured by Toyo Synthesis Co., Ltd.), and the terminals of these are methacryloyl groups.
The polymerizable macromonomer may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
The amount of the polymerizable macromonomer in the whole monomer components is usually 1 to 35% by mass, preferably 2 to 33% by mass, more preferably 5 to 30% by mass. The amount of the structural unit derived from the polymerizable macromonomer is preferably within the above range described in this paragraph, out of all the structural units derived from the monomer. When the amount of the polymerizable macromonomer is within the above range, expansion of foaming at the interface between the first and second layers and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is suppressed, and therefore, blister resistance is excellent and adhesion between these layers is excellent. The amount of the above-mentioned structural unit can be calculated from the amount of the monomer charged, for example, and is the same in other examples.
<Monomer having crosslinkable functional group>
The monomer component contains a monomer having a crosslinkable functional group.
The crosslinkable group is a functional group which can be crosslinked with the isocyanate crosslinking agent (B), and examples thereof include a hydroxyl group and an acid group. Examples of the monomer having a crosslinkable functional group include a hydroxyl group-containing monomer and an acid group-containing monomer, and among these, a hydroxyl group-containing monomer is preferable.
Examples of the hydroxyl group-containing monomer include hydroxyl group-containing (meth) acrylates, and specific examples thereof include hydroxyalkyl (meth) acrylates such as 2-hydroxyethyl (meth) acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth) acrylate, 4-hydroxybutyl (meth) acrylate, 6-hydroxyhexyl (meth) acrylate, and 8-hydroxyoctyl (meth) acrylate.
Examples of the carboxyl group-containing monomer include carboxyl group-containing (meth) acrylates such as β -carboxyethyl (meth) acrylate, 5-carboxypentyl (meth) acrylate, succinic acid mono (meth) acryloyloxyethyl ester, and ω -carboxypolycaprolacton mono (meth) acrylate, (meth) acrylic acid, itaconic acid, crotonic acid, fumaric acid, and maleic acid.
In one embodiment, when corrosion due to an acid group of a layer in contact with the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is a problem, for example, when the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed from the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is in direct contact with a wiring made of a metal or a metal oxide, it is preferable that a monomer containing an acid group is not substantially used, that is, the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) does not substantially contain the acid group. The fact that the acid group is not substantially contained means that the acid value of the (meth) acrylic copolymer (A) is 0.5mgKOH/g or less, for example.
Among the monomers having a crosslinkable functional group, a hydroxyl group-containing monomer is preferable. At least a part of the hydroxyl groups derived from the hydroxyl group-containing monomer serve as crosslinking points in the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a), and can form a crosslinked structure, for example, by reacting with isocyanate groups of the isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B).
One monomer having a crosslinkable functional group may be used alone, or two or more monomers may be used.
The amount of the crosslinkable functional group-containing monomer in the whole monomer components is usually 0.5 to 20% by mass, preferably 1.5 to 15% by mass, and more preferably 2 to 13% by mass. The amount of the structural unit derived from the crosslinkable functional group-containing monomer is preferably within the above range described in this paragraph, among all the structural units derived from the monomer. In such a form, the crosslinked structure of the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) is appropriately formed, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having appropriate flexibility can be obtained.
<Alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylates>
The monomer component preferably contains an alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylate. By using the copolymer containing a structural unit derived from an alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylate, moisture absorbed in the adhesive layer can be dispersed in the adhesive layer under a high-humidity environment, and blister resistance and whitening resistance can be improved.
The number of carbon atoms of the alkoxyalkyl group in the alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylate is usually 2 to 18, preferably 2 to 12, and more preferably 2 to 10. Examples of the alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylate include methoxymethyl (meth) acrylate, 2-methoxyethyl (meth) acrylate, 2-ethoxyethyl (meth) acrylate, 3-methoxypropyl (meth) acrylate, 3-ethoxypropyl (meth) acrylate, 4-methoxybutyl (meth) acrylate, and 4-ethoxybutyl (meth) acrylate.
The alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylate may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
The amount of the alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylate in the entire monomer components is usually 50 to 98 mass%, preferably 55 to 95 mass%, and more preferably 60 to 90 mass%. The amount of the structural unit derived from the alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylate is preferably within the above range described in this paragraph, among all the structural units derived from the monomer. If the amount of the alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylate is not less than the lower limit, the alkoxy group is hydrophilic, and thus the blister resistance and whitening resistance are increased by dispersing moisture penetrating into the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer; if the upper limit or less is not more than the above upper limit, the first and second layers have excellent adhesion to the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.
<Other monomers>
The monomer component may further contain other monomers than the above-mentioned monomers. Examples of the monomer other than the above monomers include alkyl (meth) acrylates, (meth) acrylates having an alicyclic hydrocarbon group or an aromatic hydrocarbon group, alkoxy polyalkylene glycol mono (meth) acrylates, styrene monomers, amide group-containing monomers, amino group-containing monomers, cyano group-containing monomers, and vinyl acetate.
The number of carbon atoms of the alkyl group in the alkyl (meth) acrylate is preferably 1 to 20. Examples of the alkyl (meth) acrylate include methyl (meth) acrylate, ethyl (meth) acrylate, n-propyl (meth) acrylate, isopropyl (meth) acrylate, n-butyl (meth) acrylate, isobutyl (meth) acrylate, t-butyl (meth) acrylate, pentyl (meth) acrylate, hexyl (meth) acrylate, heptyl (meth) acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth) acrylate, n-octyl (meth) acrylate, isooctyl (meth) acrylate, nonyl (meth) acrylate, isononyl (meth) acrylate, decyl (meth) acrylate, isodecyl (meth) acrylate, undecyl (meth) acrylate, lauryl (meth) acrylate, oleyl (meth) acrylate, n-stearyl (meth) acrylate, isostearyl (meth) acrylate, isopropyl (meth) acrylate, eicosyl (meth) acrylate (Japanese: ジデカ (メタ) アクリレート).
Examples of the (meth) acrylate containing an alicyclic hydrocarbon group or an aromatic hydrocarbon group include cyclohexyl (meth) acrylate, isobornyl (meth) acrylate, adamantyl (meth) acrylate, benzyl (meth) acrylate, phenyl (meth) acrylate, and phenoxyethyl (meth) acrylate.

Examples of the styrene-based monomer include styrene; alkylstyrenes such as methylstyrene, dimethylstyrene, trimethylstyrene, propylstyrene, butylstyrene, hexylstyrene, heptylstyrene, octylstyrene, and the like; halogenated styrenes such as fluorostyrene, chlorostyrene, bromostyrene, dibromostyrene, etc.; functionalized styrenes such as nitrostyrene, acetyl styrene, and methoxy styrene.

Examples of the amino group-containing monomer include N, N-dialkylaminoalkyl (meth) acrylates such as N, N-dimethylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate and N, N-diethylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate.
Examples of the cyano group-containing monomer include cyano (meth) acrylate and (meth) acrylonitrile.

The amount of other monomers in the total monomer components is preferably 35% by mass or less. The amount of the structural unit derived from another monomer is preferably 35% by mass or less of the total structural units derived from the monomers.
<Constitution of (meth) acrylic copolymer (A) and production method>
The weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) as measured by a Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) method is usually 10 to 80 ten thousand, preferably 15 to 60 ten thousand, and more preferably 20 to 50 ten thousand. In such a form, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having excellent high-temperature durability can be obtained.
The molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn; Mn is the number average molecular weight) of the (meth) acrylic copolymer (A) is usually 1.5 to 15, preferably 2 to 13, more preferably 5 to 12. In such a form, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having excellent high-temperature durability can be obtained.
Mw and Mw/Mn can be measured, for example, by the methods described in examples.
The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the (meth) acrylic copolymer (A) as determined by the so-called Fox formula is usually-80 to 0 ℃ and preferably-70 to-10 ℃. In this form, an adhesive layer having excellent adhesive strength at room temperature (25 ℃ C.) can be obtained. If Tg is too high, compatibility of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer with the first and second layers is deteriorated, and defects such as foaming and wrinkles are likely to occur.
The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the homopolymer formed from each monomer in the formula of Fox can be, for example, a value described in Polymer handbook, fourth edition (Wiley-Interscience 2003).
The total content of the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) and the isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B) in the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is usually 70% by mass or more, preferably 75% by mass or more, and more preferably 80% by mass or more, based on 100% by mass of the solid content of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. The solid component means a component other than the solvent.
The (meth) acrylic copolymer (a) can be produced by a known method, but is preferably produced by solution polymerization. Specifically, a monomer component and a polymerization solvent are charged into a reaction vessel, a polymerization initiator is added under an inert gas atmosphere such as nitrogen, and the reaction is heated to about 50 to 90 ℃ to react for 2 to 20 hours.

Cross-linking agent of isocyanate type (B)
The isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B) is a component capable of initiating a crosslinking reaction with the (meth) acrylic copolymer (A). The isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B) is, for example, an isocyanate compound having 2 or more isocyanate groups (-N ═ C ═ O) in 1 molecule. The number of isocyanate groups in 1 molecule is preferably 2 to 8, more preferably 2 to 6.
The isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B) has an alkyleneoxy group having 2 or more carbon atoms. Here, "alkyleneoxy" means a 2-valent group represented by-R-O-, wherein R is an alkanediyl group having 2 or more carbon atoms. The upper limit of the carbon number of the alkyleneoxy group is usually 10, preferably 8.
In addition, the reactant of toluene diisocyanate and trimethylolpropane, for example, although having-CH2-O-, but not having carbonAn alkyleneoxy group (a 2-valent group) having a number of 2 or more.
The alkyleneoxy group having 2 or more carbon atoms may be contained in the crosslinking agent (B) as a part of the ring-opening structure of the lactone as in the formula (3) described later, or may be contained as in the formula (4) described later.

The lactone-modifying group means a ring-opened structure of a lactone, and the alkylene oxide-modifying group means a ring-opened structure of an alkylene oxide.
Since the isocyanate-based crosslinking agent (B) has an alkyleneoxy group having 2 or more carbon atoms, the distance between crosslinking points becomes long. In general, in order to improve durability, the compatibility with a substrate or an adherend of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer tends to be reduced by hardening the polymer component, but by using the crosslinking agent (B) having a long distance between crosslinking points, flexibility is imparted to the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and the compatibility is improved, whereby a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having both hardness and flexibility can be obtained. That is, in the present invention, the durability of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer can be improved by hardening the (meth) acrylic copolymer (a), and the deterioration of the compatibility with the first and second layers accompanying the hardening of the copolymer (a) can be prevented by using the crosslinking agent (B) having a long distance between crosslinking points.

In reference examples 1 and 2, the PC board having the above weight ratio of 1.0006 was used, and the blister resistance and the whitening resistance were good. However, in comparative example 1 in which an adhesive layer was formed in the same composition as in reference example 2 and a PC board having the above weight ratio of 1.0021 was used, the blister resistance was poor. Thus, the problem of durability is not remarkable when a PC board having low water absorption capacity is used, but the problem of durability occurs when a PC board having high water absorption capacity is used. This is a new problem, which has not been studied in the prior art.
On the other hand, in the examples, even in the case of using the PC board of the above-described weight ratio 1.0021, the blister resistance and the whitening resistance were good. Accordingly, the present invention can provide a laminate excellent in durability when a PC board having high water absorption capacity is used.
