Detailed Description
A laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention (hereinafter also simply referred to as "laminate") will be described below with reference to the drawings.
< laminate >
Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a laminate (optical laminate) according to an embodiment of the present invention. The laminate 100 includes a front panel 101, a1 st adhesive layer 102, a polarizer layer 103, a2 nd adhesive layer 104, and a back panel 105 in this order. The 1 st adhesive layer 102 is formed of a1 st adhesive composition, and the 2 nd adhesive layer 104 is formed of a2 nd adhesive composition. Hereinafter, the 1 st adhesive layer 102 and the 2 nd adhesive layer 104 may be collectively referred to as an adhesive layer.
The thickness of the laminate 100 is not particularly limited, and is, for example, 50 to 4000 μm, preferably 100 to 2000 μm, and more preferably 150 to 1000 μm, since it varies depending on the functions required for the laminate, the use of the laminate, and the like.
The shape of the laminate 100 in plan view may be, for example, a square shape, preferably a square shape having long sides and short sides, and more preferably a rectangle. When the shape of the laminate 100 in the plane direction is a rectangle, the length of the long side may be, for example, 10mm to 1400mm, and preferably 50mm to 600 mm. The length of the short side is, for example, 5mm to 800mm, preferably 30mm to 500mm, and more preferably 50mm to 300 mm. Each layer constituting the laminate may be subjected to a corner rounding process, or an end cutting process or a hole forming process.
The laminate 100 can be used for a display device or the like, for example. The display device is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include an organic electroluminescence (organic EL) display device, an inorganic electroluminescence (inorganic EL) display device, a liquid crystal display device, and an electroluminescence display device. The display device may have a touch panel function.
[ shear stress relaxation Rate of adhesive layer ]
In the laminate 100, if the shear stress relaxation rate at a temperature of 25 ℃ of the 1 st adhesive layer 102 is R1 and the shear stress relaxation rate at a temperature of 25 ℃ of the 2 nd adhesive layer 104 is R2, the following relational expression (1) is satisfied:
R1≥R2 (1),
more preferably, the following relational expression (1') is satisfied:
R1>R2 (1’)。
whether or not the relation (1) or (1') is satisfied is
i) A method of making a judgment based on each value of R1 and R2; and
ii) a method of judging based on other combinations having the same size relationship as the combination of R1 and R2.
Although the shear stress relaxation rate does not depend on the thickness of the adhesive layer, when the 1 st adhesive layer 102 and the 2 nd adhesive layer 104 are too thin, it may be difficult to accurately measure the shear stress relaxation rate. One of the methods for judging based on the other combinations of ii) is, for example, a method of comparing a1 st reference adhesive layer formed from a1 st adhesive composition with a2 nd reference adhesive layer formed from a2 nd adhesive composition. Shear stress relaxation rate R at 25 ℃ of temperature of No. 1 reference adhesive layer01 and 2 nd reference adhesive layer at a temperature of 25 ℃ and a shear stress relaxation rate R02 full ofThe following relational expression (1 a): r01≥R02(1a), the following relational expression (1' a) is satisfied: r01>R02(1 'a) can be regarded as satisfying the relational expression (1'). The thickness of the 1 st and 2 nd reference adhesive layers may be 150 μm. Shear stress relaxation rate R at 25 ℃ of No. 1 reference adhesive layer and No. 2 reference adhesive layer having a thickness of 150 μm01、R02 was measured according to the measurement method described in the section of example.
The laminate 100 can be bent with the front panel 101 side facing outward. In a display device including a laminate, if the front panel side is repeatedly bent to the outside, air bubbles may be generated in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The generation of such bubbles is particularly remarkable in the adhesive layer on the side away from the front panel, i.e., the 2 nd adhesive layer 104 in the laminate 100. As a result of studies by the present inventors, it was found that when the shear stress relaxation rates of the 1 st pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 102 and the 2 nd pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 104 satisfy the relational expression (1), bubbles generated in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers in the laminate 100 can be suppressed even when the front panel 101 side is repeatedly bent outward. More specifically, even when the laminate 100 is repeatedly bent 2 ten thousand times so that the inner surface of the laminate 100 has a bending radius of 3mm, bubbles generated in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer in the laminate 100 can be suppressed (hereinafter, the laminate is also referred to as having excellent "room-temperature bendability"). The room temperature flexibility can be evaluated according to the evaluation methods described in the section of examples described later. The laminate 100 can be bent with the front panel side being the inner side. The display device to which the laminate 100 is applied can be used as a flexible display which can be bent, rolled, or the like.
In the present specification, the bending includes a bending form in which a curved surface is formed at a bent portion, and a bending radius of an inner surface of the bending is not particularly limited. In addition, the bending also includes bending in which the bending angle of the inner surface is greater than 0 degrees and less than 180 degrees, and folding in which the bending radius of the inner surface is approximately zero or the bending angle of the inner surface is 0 degrees.
When the shear stress relaxation rates of the 1 st pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 102 and the 2 nd pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 104 satisfy the relational expression (1), even when left standing for a long time under constant temperature and humidity conditions, the adhesive layer and the member to be adhered hardly show changes in appearance such as floating, peeling, and foaming, and the adhesive durability at normal temperature is excellent. The room temperature adhesion durability can be evaluated according to the evaluation methods described in the section of examples described later.
When the shear stress relaxation rate at 25 ℃ of the 1 st reference adhesive layer with the thickness of 150 μm is set as R01 and the shear stress relaxation rate at 25 ℃ of the 2 nd reference adhesive layer with a thickness of 150 μm is R02, the following relational expressions (2) and (3) are preferably satisfied:
0.02≤R01≤0.25 (2)
0.02≤R02≤0.25 (3),
more preferably, the following relational expressions (2a) and (3a) are satisfied:
0.10≤R01≤0.20 (2a)
0.10≤R02≤0.20 (3a)。
examples of the method for producing the 1 st adhesive composition and the 2 nd adhesive composition so that the shear stress relaxation rates of the 1 st adhesive layer 102 and the 2 nd adhesive layer 104 satisfy the relational expression (1) include a method of forming an adhesive layer from the adhesive composition a described later, a method of changing the kind of monomers constituting the (meth) acrylic polymer a described later, or a method of adjusting the molecular weight of the (meth) acrylic polymer a described later.

Examples of the (meth) acrylic monomer include (meth) acrylate and (meth) acrylic amide. Examples of the (meth) acrylic acid ester include butyl (meth) acrylate, methyl (meth) acrylate, ethyl (meth) acrylate, hexyl (meth) acrylate, octyl (meth) acrylate, lauryl (meth) acrylate, isooctyl (meth) acrylate, isodecyl (meth) acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth) acrylate, hydroxypropyl (meth) acrylate, tetrahydrofurfuryl (meth) acrylate, cyclohexyl (meth) acrylate, isobornyl (meth) acrylate, and the like. Examples of the (meth) acrylamide include (meth) acrylamide, N-dimethyl (meth) acrylamide, N-diethyl (meth) acrylamide, N-isopropyl (meth) acrylamide, N-methoxyethyl (meth) acrylamide, N-propyl (meth) acrylamide, N-ethylacrylamide, and N- (2-hydroxyethyl) (meth) acrylamide. The (meth) acrylic polymer a may be a polymer or copolymer containing 1 or 2 or more monomers selected from the group consisting of the above-mentioned (meth) acrylic acid esters and (meth) acrylic acid amides. The content of the (meth) acrylic polymer a in the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition a may be, for example, 50 to 100 mass%, preferably 80 to 99.5 mass%, more preferably 88 to 99 mass%, and still more preferably 90 to 99 mass% with respect to 100 mass% of the solid content of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition a.

(in the formula (I), Z1Is an oxygen atom or a nitrogen atom, Z2Is an oxygen atom, a nitrogen atom or a carbon atom, and Y is a hydrocarbon group. )
In the formula (I), Y may be a cyclic hydrocarbon group, or Y and Z may be1Or Z2Together forming a ring. Z1Or Z2May be an oxygen atom or a nitrogen atom bonded to the (meth) acryloyl group.

By using the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition a containing such a (meth) acrylic polymer, the 1 st reference pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the 2 nd reference pressure-sensitive adhesive layer satisfying the relational expressions (2) and (3) described above can be easily formed. The (meth) acrylic polymer a may contain, for example, 1 to 20 mass%, preferably 2 to 10 mass% of a constituent unit derived from a monomer containing a structure represented by formula (I) and being a (meth) acrylate or a (meth) acrylic amide, with respect to 100 mass% of the solid content of the (meth) acrylic polymer a.

(2) Heat-curable adhesive composition
When the adhesive composition a is a heat-curable adhesive composition, the (meth) acrylic polymer a preferably contains, as monomer units constituting the polymer, an alkyl (meth) acrylate having an alkyl group and 2 to 20 carbon atoms and a monomer having a reactive functional group in a molecule (reactive functional group-containing monomer).
The (meth) acrylic polymer A can exhibit preferable adhesiveness by containing an alkyl (meth) acrylate having an alkyl group and 2 to 20 carbon atoms as a monomer unit constituting the polymer.

Specifically, n-butyl acrylate and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate are particularly preferable. These may be used alone, or 2 or more of them may be used in combination.
The (meth) acrylic polymer a preferably contains the low Tg alkyl acrylate in an amount of 85 mass% or more, more preferably 90 mass% or more, and still more preferably 95 mass% or more, in terms of the lower limit of the amount of the monomer units constituting the polymer. When the temperature is in this range, the shear stress relaxation rate at 25 ℃ of the obtained adhesive is likely to fall within the above range.
The low Tg alkyl acrylate is preferably contained in the (meth) acrylic polymer a in an amount of 99.9 mass% or less, more preferably 99.5 mass% or less, and still more preferably 99 mass% or less, as the upper limit of the monomer unit constituting the polymer. By containing 99.9 mass% or less of the low Tg alkyl acrylate, an appropriate amount of other monomer components (particularly, a monomer having a reactive functional group) can be introduced into the (meth) acrylic polymer a.
In order to easily set the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the main polymer of the adhesive of the present embodiment to the above range, the content of a monomer having a glass transition temperature (Tg) exceeding 0 ℃ as a homopolymer (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "hard monomer") is preferably reduced as much as possible in the (meth) acrylic polymer a. Specifically, in the (meth) acrylic polymer a, the content of the hard monomer as a monomer unit constituting the polymer is preferably 15% by mass or less, more preferably 10% by mass or less, and further preferably 5% by mass or less, as the upper limit value.

The (meth) acrylic polymer a contains a reactive functional group-containing monomer as a monomer unit constituting the polymer, and thus forms a crosslinked structure (three-dimensional network structure) by reacting a thermal crosslinking agent described later with the reactive functional group derived from the reactive functional group-containing monomer through the reactive functional group, thereby obtaining an adhesive having a desired cohesive force.
Examples of the reactive functional group-containing monomer contained as a monomer unit constituting the (meth) acrylic polymer a include a monomer having a hydroxyl group in the molecule (hydroxyl group-containing monomer), a monomer having a carboxyl group in the molecule (carboxyl group-containing monomer), and a monomer having an amino group in the molecule (amino group-containing monomer). Among these, monomers having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 0 ℃ or lower are more preferable, and hydroxyl group-containing monomers are particularly preferable.
Examples of the hydroxyl group-containing monomer include hydroxyalkyl (meth) acrylates such as 2-hydroxyethyl (meth) acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth) acrylate, 3-hydroxypropyl (meth) acrylate, 2-hydroxybutyl (meth) acrylate, 3-hydroxybutyl (meth) acrylate, and 4-hydroxybutyl (meth) acrylate. Among them, at least one of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate, 3-hydroxypropyl acrylate and 4-hydroxybutyl acrylate is preferable from the viewpoint of the glass transition temperature (Tg), the reactivity of the hydroxyl group in the obtained (meth) acrylic polymer a with a thermal crosslinking agent and the copolymerizability with other monomers. These may be used alone, or 2 or more of them may be used in combination.
Examples of the carboxyl group-containing monomer include ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid, maleic acid, itaconic acid, and citraconic acid. These may be used alone, or 2 or more of them may be used in combination.
Examples of the amino group-containing monomer include aminoethyl (meth) acrylate, n-butylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate, and the like. These may be used alone, or 2 or more of them may be used in combination.
The (meth) acrylic polymer a preferably contains the reactive functional group-containing monomer in an amount of 0.1 mass% or more, particularly preferably 0.5 mass% or more, and more preferably 1 mass% or more, as the lower limit of the monomer unit constituting the polymer. The content of the above-mentioned limit is preferably 10% by mass or less, particularly preferably 8% by mass or less, further preferably 5% by mass or less, and most preferably less than 5% by mass. When the (meth) acrylic polymer a contains the reactive functional group-containing monomer, particularly the hydroxyl group-containing monomer, as a monomer unit in the above-mentioned amount, the shear stress relaxation rate at a temperature of 25 ℃ of the obtained pressure-sensitive adhesive layer tends to fall within the above-mentioned range.
In the (meth) acrylic polymer a, as a monomer unit constituting the polymer, a carboxyl group-containing monomer, particularly acrylic acid, which is also a hard monomer, may not be contained. Since the carboxyl group is an acid component, since the carboxyl group-containing monomer is not contained, even when there are components that cause troubles due to an acid, for example, a transparent conductive film such as tin-doped indium oxide (ITO), a metal film, a metal mesh, or the like in the object to which the adhesive is attached, it is possible to suppress the troubles (corrosion, change in resistance value, or the like) caused by an acid.
The (meth) acrylic polymer a may contain other monomers as the monomer unit constituting the polymer, if necessary. As the other monomer, a monomer containing no reactive functional group is also preferable in order not to hinder the action of the reactive functional group-containing monomer. Examples of the other monomer include, in addition to alkoxyalkyl (meth) acrylates such as methoxyethyl (meth) acrylate and ethoxyethyl (meth) acrylate, monomers having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of more than-40 ℃ and not more than 0 ℃ as a homopolymer (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "medium Tg alkyl acrylate"), and the medium Tg alkyl acrylates include, for example, ethyl acrylate (Tg of-20 ℃), isobutyl acrylate (Tg of-26 ℃), 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate (Tg of-10 ℃), n-lauryl acrylate (Tg of-23 ℃), isostearyl acrylate (Tg of-18 ℃) and the like, and these may be used alone or in combination of 2 or more.

The lower limit of the weight average molecular weight of the (meth) acrylic polymer a is preferably 20 ten thousand or more, particularly preferably 30 ten thousand or more, and more preferably 40 ten thousand or more. When the lower limit of the weight average molecular weight of the (meth) acrylic polymer a is not less than the above range, troubles such as bleeding out of the adhesive can be suppressed. The weight average molecular weight in the present specification is a value in terms of standard polystyrene measured by a Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) method.
The upper limit of the weight average molecular weight of the (meth) acrylic polymer a is preferably 150 ten thousand or less, particularly preferably 135 ten thousand or less, and more preferably 120 ten thousand or less. When the upper limit of the weight average molecular weight of the (meth) acrylate polymer a is not more than the above range, the shear stress relaxation rate at a temperature of 25 ℃ of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer to be obtained easily falls within the above range.
In the adhesive composition a, 1 kind of the (meth) acrylic polymer a may be used alone, or 2 or more kinds may be used in combination.
When the adhesive composition A containing a thermal crosslinking agent is heated, the thermal crosslinking agent crosslinks the (meth) acrylic polymer A to form a three-dimensional network structure. This improves the cohesive force of the resulting pressure-sensitive adhesive, and the shear stress relaxation rate at a temperature of 25 ℃ of the resulting pressure-sensitive adhesive layer tends to fall within the above range.
The thermal crosslinking agent is a compound having a structure similar to that of the (meth) acrylic polymer AThe reactive group of (3) may be reacted with a thermal crosslinking agent, and examples thereof include an isocyanate crosslinking agent, an epoxy crosslinking agent, an amine crosslinking agent, a melamine crosslinking agent, an aziridine crosslinking agent, a hydrazine crosslinking agent, an aldehyde crosslinking agent, an amine crosslinking agent, a melamine crosslinking agent, an aziridine crosslinking agent, a hydrazine crosslinking agent, an aldehyde crosslinking agent, a melamine crosslinking agent, a polyester resin, a copolymer, and a copolymer, and a copolymer, and a copolymer, and a copolymer, a,

The content is preferably 1% by mass or less, more preferably 0.5% by mass or less, and still more preferably 0.3% by mass or less. When the content of the silane coupling agent is within the above range, the obtained pressure-sensitive adhesive layer has more preferable adhesion to each member in the laminate as an adherend.
Various additives may be added to the adhesive composition a as needed. The additives constituting the adhesive composition a do not include a polymerization solvent and a dilution solvent.

In the polymerization step, a chain transfer agent such as 2-mercaptoethanol is added to adjust the weight average molecular weight of the obtained polymer.
After obtaining the (meth) acrylic polymer a, a thermal crosslinking agent, a silane coupling agent, and if necessary, an additive and a diluting solvent are added to a solution of the (meth) acrylic polymer a and sufficiently mixed to obtain a binder composition a (coating solution) diluted with a solvent.
In the case where a solid component is used or a precipitate is generated when the solid component is mixed with another component in an undiluted state, any of the above components may be dissolved or diluted in a diluting solvent alone and then mixed with another component.

The concentration and viscosity of the coating solution prepared in this manner are not particularly limited as long as the coating solution can be applied, and may be appropriately selected according to the situation. For example, the binder composition A is diluted so that the concentration thereof is 10 to 60 mass%. The addition of a diluting solvent or the like is not an essential condition when obtaining a coating solution, and the diluting solvent may not be added if the adhesive composition a has a viscosity capable of being coated or the like. In this case, the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition a is a coating solution in which the polymerization solvent of the (meth) acrylic polymer a is directly used as a dilution solvent.
A preferable pressure-sensitive adhesive as the pressure-sensitive adhesive of the present embodiment is a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition a obtained by crosslinking. Crosslinking of the adhesive composition a may be performed by heat treatment. The heat treatment may be used in combination with a drying treatment when a diluent solvent or the like is volatilized from a coating film of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition a applied to a desired object.
The heating temperature of the heating treatment is preferably 50 to 150 ℃, and more preferably 70 to 120 ℃. The heating time is preferably 10 seconds to 10 minutes, and more preferably 50 seconds to 2 minutes.
After the heat treatment, if necessary, a curing period of about 1 to 2 weeks may be set at normal temperature (e.g., 23 ℃ C., 50% RH). In the case where the curing period is required, the adhesive is formed after the curing period, and in the case where the curing period is not required, the adhesive is formed after the heat treatment is completed.
By the heat treatment (and curing), the (meth) acrylic polymer a is sufficiently crosslinked via the crosslinking agent to form a crosslinked structure, thereby obtaining an adhesive. The shear stress relaxation rate at a temperature of 25 ℃ of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed from the pressure-sensitive adhesive is likely to fall within the above range.
The adhesive sheet of the present invention comprises an adhesive layer formed from the adhesive composition a of the present invention described above. The adhesive layer may be formed by applying the adhesive composition a to a substrate. When a thermosetting adhesive composition is used as the adhesive composition a, the adhesive layer formed is subjected to heat treatment (and curing) to produce a cured product having a desired degree of curing. The conditions of the heat treatment and the aging are as described above.
The substrate may be a release film subjected to a release treatment.

< production of laminate 100 >
The laminates of examples 1 to 6 and comparative example 1 were produced by the following procedure. In the formation of the 1 st adhesive layer and the 2 nd adhesive layer, adhesive sheets formed from the adhesive compositions shown in tables 1 and 3 were used in combination shown in table 4.
First, the release film a of the adhesive sheet for adhesive layer was peeled off, and then the exposed adhesive layer was subjected to corona treatment. The surface of the laminate including the polarizer layer on the protective layer side is subjected to corona treatment. The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer was bonded to a laminate including the polarizer layer so that the corona-treated surface became a bonding surface, to obtain a laminate a 1.
After the other release film B of the adhesive sheet for adhesive layer was peeled off from the laminate a1, the exposed adhesive layer was subjected to corona treatment. Laminate a1 was laminated to the laminate including the retardation layer so that the surface on the retardation layer side of the laminate including the retardation layer was subjected to corona treatment and the surface subjected to corona treatment became the lamination surface, to obtain laminate a 2.
The PET film was peeled from the laminate a2, and the surface on the retardation layer side was subjected to corona treatment. The release film a of the adhesive sheet 2 was peeled off, and the surface of the adhesive layer was subjected to corona treatment. Laminate a2 was bonded to the 2 nd adhesive layer so that the corona-treated surface became the bonding surface, resulting in laminate A3.
The release film a was peeled from the 1 st adhesive sheet, and the surface of the adhesive layer was subjected to corona treatment.
The surface of the front panel on the PI side was also subjected to corona treatment, and the 1 st adhesive layer was bonded to the front panel so that the corona-treated surface became a bonding surface, to obtain a laminate a 4.
The surface of the laminate a3 on the TAC film side was subjected to corona treatment. The release film B of the laminate a4 was peeled off, and the surface of the 1 st adhesive layer was subjected to corona treatment. Laminate A3 was bonded to laminate a4 so that the corona-treated surface became the bonding surface, and laminate a5 was obtained.
The release film B of the laminate a5 was peeled off, and the laminate was bonded to a polyethylene terephthalate substrate to prepare a laminate for ordinary temperature bendability evaluation.
The release film B of the laminate a5 was peeled off and bonded to a glass substrate to prepare a laminate for room-temperature adhesion durability test.
A laminated body composed of a window film/1 st adhesive layer/TAC film layer/1 st alignment film (AL 1)/polarizer layer/protective layer/adhesive layer/2 nd alignment film (AL 2)/phase difference layer/2 nd adhesive layer/back surface plate was produced in this manner.
Corona treatment was all at the output: 0.3KW, speed: at 3 m/min.
The laminates of examples 1 to 6 and comparative example 1 were evaluated for room temperature bendability and room temperature adhesion durability. The results are shown in Table 4.
[ Table 4]

[ Normal temperature bendability ]
The laminate was subjected to an evaluation test for confirming room-temperature bendability using a bending evaluation apparatus (STS-VRT-500, manufactured by Science Town). Fig. 4 is a diagram schematically showing the method of the evaluation test. As shown in fig. 4, two independently movable mounting tables 501 and 502 are arranged so that the gap C becomes 6mm (the bending radius is 3mm), the center in the width direction is positioned at the center of the gap C, and the laminate is fixed and arranged so that the polyethylene terephthalate substrate is positioned on the upper side (fig. 4 (a)). Then, the two tables 501 and 502 are rotated upward by 90 degrees around the position P1 and the position P2 as the center of the rotation axis, and a bending force is applied to the region of the laminated body corresponding to the gap C of the tables (fig. 4 (b)). Thereafter, the two tables 501 and 502 are returned to their original positions (fig. 4 (a)). The above series of operations was completed, and the number of times of application of the bending force was counted as 1 time. After repeating this at a temperature of 25 ℃, it was confirmed whether or not air bubbles were generated in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer in the region of the laminate corresponding to the gap C of the mounting tables 501 and 502. The moving speed of the mounting tables 501 and 502 and the step of applying the bending force are the same in the evaluation test of any laminate.
A: no bubble was generated even if the number of bending force applications reached 10 ten thousand.
B: bubbles are generated when the number of times of applying the bending force is 5 ten thousand or more and less than 10 ten thousand.
C: bubbles are generated when the number of times of applying the bending force is 2 ten thousand or more and less than 5 ten thousand.
D: bubbles are generated when the number of times of application of the bending force is 1 ten thousand or more and less than 2 ten thousand.
E: bubbles are generated when the number of times of application of the bending force is less than 1 ten thousand.
[ Normal temperature adhesion durability ]
Room temperature adhesion durability a laminate obtained by bonding a glass substrate instead of a polyethylene terephthalate substrate as described above was used for the test. Specifically, the laminate a5 was cut so as to have a width of 100mm × a length of 100mm, and the release film B was peeled off from the 2 nd pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and bonded to an alkali-free glass substrate to prepare a laminate for room-temperature adhesion durability test. The test piece was treated with an autoclave at 50 ℃ and 5 atm for 20 minutes and then kept at constant temperature and humidity (23 ℃ and 50% relative humidity) for 4 hours. Thereafter, after being left in an oven at 25 ℃ for 250 hours, the test piece was observed for the presence or absence of floating, peeling and bubbling. The evaluation criteria are as follows.
A: the appearance change such as floating, peeling, foaming and the like was hardly observed.
B: the appearance change such as floating, peeling, foaming and the like is slightly conspicuous.
C: the appearance changes such as floating, peeling, foaming and the like are obviously seen.
Examples 1 to 6 satisfy "R01≥R02 ", and therefore, it can be judged that the relation" R1 ≧ R2 "is satisfied. On the other hand, comparative example 1 is "R01<R02 ", and thus can be judged as" R1 < R2 ".
