Description

  The present invention relates to a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition having antistatic properties and antistatic pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets made into a sheet-like or tape-like form using the same.

  The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets made of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of the present invention are suitably used for plastic products and the like that easily generate static electricity. Especially, it is useful as an antistatic pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet and pressure-sensitive adhesive tape used in applications that dislike static electricity such as electronic devices.

  The surface protective film is generally used for the purpose of sticking to a body to be protected through an adhesive applied to the side of the protective film and preventing scratches and dirt generated during processing and transportation of the body to be protected. For example, a panel of a liquid crystal display is formed by bonding an optical member such as a polarizing plate or a wavelength plate to a liquid crystal cell via an adhesive. In these optical members to be bonded to the liquid crystal cell, a protective film is bonded via an adhesive for the purpose of preventing scratches and dirt.

  Then, the protective film is peeled off and removed at a stage where the protective film is no longer necessary, for example, by bonding the optical member to the liquid crystal cell. In general, since a protective film and an optical member are made of a plastic material, they have high electrical insulation and generate static electricity during friction or peeling. Accordingly, static electricity is generated when the protective film is peeled off from the optical member such as a polarizing plate. If a voltage is applied to the liquid crystal while static electricity remains, the alignment of the liquid crystal molecules is lost or the panel is damaged. Therefore, in order to prevent such problems, the surface protective film is subjected to various antistatic treatments.

  To date, as an attempt to suppress the above-described electrostatic charge, for example, one or more low-molecular surfactants are added to the adhesive, and the surfactant is transferred from the adhesive to the adherend and charged. A method for preventing this is disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 1). However, in the present invention, these low molecular surfactants are likely to bleed on the pressure-sensitive adhesive surface, and when applied to a protective film, there is a concern about contamination of the adherend. Therefore, when a pressure-sensitive adhesive to which a low molecular surfactant is added is applied to the protective film for an optical member, it is difficult to develop sufficient antistatic properties without impairing the optical properties of the optical member.

JP-A-9-165460

  In light of such circumstances, the present invention is a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition excellent in adhesion reliability, capable of preventing electrification at the time of peeling of an uncharged adherend, reducing contamination on the adherend, and An object is to provide an antistatic pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet and a surface protective film using the same.

  As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the present inventors have found that the above object can be achieved by the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition shown below, and have completed the present invention.

  That is, the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of the present invention is a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition comprising an ionic liquid and a polymer having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 0 ° C. or less as a base polymer, and the anionic component of the ionic liquid. Consists of a sulfonate anion or a sulfate ester anion.

  In addition, the ionic liquid in this invention means the molten salt (ionic compound) which exhibits a liquid state at room temperature (25 degreeC).

  According to the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of the present invention, as shown in the results of Examples, a polymer having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 0 ° C. or lower as a base polymer, and an anion component is a sulfonate anion or a sulfate ester anion. Since the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer that has been cross-linked with the adhesive liquid contains an adhesive liquid, it is possible to prevent the object to be protected (adhered body) that is not antistatic when peeled off, and the contamination of the object to be protected is reduced. Excellent adhesive properties. Although the details of the reason why such characteristics are exhibited by using the ionic liquid are not clear, the ionic liquid acts as an antistatic agent, and by using the ionic liquid, the ionic liquid as the antistatic agent is used. A pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is obtained in which bleed is suppressed and contamination of the adherend is suppressed over time and at high temperatures.

  Although the details of the reason why bleeding is suppressed by using an ionic liquid as described above are not clear, it is presumed as follows. It is considered that the antistatic effect by the surfactant having a long chain alkyl group or the like is manifested by the surface of the surfactant bleed and the formation of a charge leakage layer with moisture in the air. On the other hand, since the ionic liquid is in a liquid state, the molecular movement is easier than that of the surfactant, and the rearrangement of molecules is likely to occur due to the generation of electric charges. Therefore, in the case of an ionic liquid, since a charge neutralization mechanism by molecular rearrangement works, it is considered that an excellent antistatic effect can be obtained without bleed on the surface as compared with the surfactant.

  In addition, since the ionic liquid is liquid at room temperature, it can be easily added to, dispersed in, or dissolved in the pressure-sensitive adhesive as compared with a solid salt. Furthermore, since the ionic liquid has no vapor pressure (non-volatile), it does not disappear over time, and the antistatic property can be continuously obtained.

  Furthermore, the ionic liquid in the present invention is characterized in that the anion component is composed of a sulfonate anion or a sulfate ester anion. Such an anion component is available at a lower cost than the hexafluorophosphate anion, bis (trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide anion, and the like, and has the advantage that a lower cost ionic liquid can be obtained.

  In the above, the ionic liquid is preferably at least one of a nitrogen-containing onium salt, a sulfur-containing onium salt, and a phosphorus-containing onium salt. In particular, the ionic liquid preferably contains one or more cations represented by the following general formulas (A) to (D). An ionic liquid having these cations provides a further excellent antistatic ability.

[R _a in the formula (A) represents a hydrocarbon group having 4 to 20 carbon atoms and may include a hetero atom, and R _b and R _c may be the same or different, and may be hydrogen or _C 1 to _C 16. Represents a hydrocarbon group and may contain heteroatoms. However, when the nitrogen atom contains a double bond, there is no R _c . ]

  Further, the polymer having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 0 ° C. or lower is a (meth) acrylic polymer having as a main component at least one (meth) acrylate having an alkyl group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms. Is preferred. By using these (meth) acrylic polymers, the balance between the compatibility of the ionic liquid and the base polymer is improved, and the adhesive properties can be sufficiently maintained.

  The (meth) acrylic polymer in the present invention refers to an acrylic polymer and / or a methacrylic polymer. The (meth) acrylate refers to acrylate and / or methacrylate.

  Moreover, in the adhesive composition of this invention, it is preferable to use the polymer which has an ether group containing monomer as a monomer component as a base polymer. By using a polymer having an ether group-containing monomer, compatibility with the ionic liquid is improved, bleeding to the adherend is suppressed, and a low-contamination pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is obtained.

  The ether group-containing monomer in the present invention is a monomer component containing an ether group and has a reactive substituent such as an acryloyl group, a methacryloyl group, or an allyl group.

  On the other hand, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the present invention is formed by crosslinking the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition as described above. By appropriately adjusting the structural unit, the structural ratio, the selection of the crosslinking agent and the addition ratio of the (meth) acrylic polymer and performing crosslinking, pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets having more excellent heat resistance and weather resistance can be obtained. .

  The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the present invention is characterized in that a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed by crosslinking the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition described above is formed on one side or both sides of a support. According to the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the present invention, since it has a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed by crosslinking the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition having the above-described effects, the anti-static to the adherend not subjected to the antistatic treatment when peeled off. Thus, pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets with excellent adhesion reliability with reduced contamination of the adherend are obtained.

  Furthermore, when the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of the present invention is applied to a surface protective film, the plastic substrate used for the protective film is more preferably subjected to antistatic treatment. By subjecting the plastic substrate to an antistatic treatment, it is possible to more effectively reduce the stripping voltage on the adherend, and further to obtain an excellent antistatic ability. According to the surface protective film of the present invention, since it has a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed by cross-linking the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition having the above-described effects, the anti-static to the adherend not subjected to the antistatic treatment when peeled off. Thus, a protective film having excellent adhesion reliability with reduced contamination on the adherend is obtained. For this reason, it is very useful as an antistatic protective film in a technical field related to electronic equipment, in which electrostatic charge and contamination are particularly serious problems.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

  The method of synthesizing the ionic liquid is not particularly limited as long as the target ionic liquid can be obtained. In general, however, it is described in the document “Ionic liquids: the forefront and future of development” (issued by CMC Publishing). As described, a halide method, a hydroxide method, an acid ester method, a complex formation method, a neutralization method, and the like are used.

  The synthesis method for the halide method, hydroxide method, and acid ester method will be described below using nitrogen-containing onium salts as examples, but the same applies to other ionic liquids such as other sulfur-containing onium salts and phosphorus-containing onium salts. It can be obtained by a technique.

  The halide method is a method carried out by reactions as shown in the following formulas (1) to (3). First, a tertiary amine and an alkyl halide are reacted to obtain a halide (reaction formula (1), and chlorine, bromine, and iodine are used as the halogen).

The obtained halide is an acid (HA) or salt having the anion structure (A ⁻ ) of the target ionic liquid (MA and M form a salt with the target anion such as ammonium, lithium, sodium, potassium, etc.) The target ionic liquid (R ₄ NA) is obtained by reacting with a cation).

The hydroxide method is a method performed by reactions as shown in (4) to (8). First, halide (R ₄ NX) is subjected to ion exchange membrane electrolysis (reaction formula (4)), OH type ion exchange resin method (reaction formula (5)) or reaction with silver oxide (Ag ₂ O) (reaction formula ( 6)) to obtain a hydroxide (R ₄ NOH) (chlorine, bromine and iodine are used as the halogen).

The target ionic liquid (R ₄ NA) can be obtained from the obtained hydroxide using the reactions of the reaction formulas (7) to (8) in the same manner as the halogenation method.

The acid ester method is a method performed by reactions as shown in (9) to (11). First, a tertiary amine (R ₃ N) is reacted with an acid ester to obtain an acid ester product (Reaction Formula (9)). As the acid ester, inorganic acids such as sulfuric acid, sulfurous acid, phosphoric acid, phosphorous acid, and carbonic acid are used. Esters and esters of organic acids such as methanesulfonic acid, methylphosphonic acid and formic acid are used).

The target ionic liquid (R ₄ NA) is obtained from the obtained acid ester using the reactions of the reaction formulas (10) to (11) in the same manner as the halogenation method. Moreover, an ionic liquid can also be obtained directly by using sulfate ester, sulfite ester, etc. as acid ester.

  R described in (1) to (11) above represents hydrogen or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 40 carbon atoms, and may contain a hetero atom.

  The ionic liquids may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

  The blending amount of the ionic liquid cannot be defined unconditionally because it varies depending on the compatibility of the polymer to be used and the ionic liquid, but is generally 0.01 to 40 weights with respect to 100 parts by weight of the base polymer. Part is preferable, 0.03 to 20 parts by weight is more preferable, and 0.05 to 10 parts by weight is further preferable. If it is less than 0.01 part by weight, sufficient antistatic properties cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 40 parts by weight, the contamination of the adherend tends to increase.

  In the present invention, a polymer having a glass transition temperature Tg of 0 ° C. or lower is used as the base polymer, preferably Tg is −100 to −5 ° C., more preferably Tg is −80 to −10 ° C. When the glass transition temperature Tg exceeds 0 ° C., it is difficult to obtain a sufficient adhesive force even when an ionic liquid is contained.

  Examples of such a polymer include (meth) acrylic polymers, natural rubber, styrene-isoprene-styrene block copolymer mainly containing one or more of (meth) acrylates having 1 to 14 carbon atoms. Polymer (SIS block copolymer), Styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer (SBS block copolymer), Styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene block copolymer (SEBS block copolymer), Styrene-butadiene rubber, Polymers generally applied as the adhesive polymer such as polybutadiene, polyisoprene, polyisobutylene, butyl rubber, chloroprene rubber, and silicone rubber are listed.

  Among these, since the balance of compatibility with the ionic liquid and excellent adhesive properties can be obtained, the main component is one or more of (meth) acrylates having an alkyl group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms. (Meth) acrylic polymers are preferred.

  Specific examples of the (meth) acrylate having an alkyl group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms include, for example, methyl (meth) acrylate, ethyl (meth) acrylate, n-butyl (meth) acrylate, s-butyl (meth) acrylate, t-butyl (meth) acrylate, isobutyl (meth) acrylate, hexyl (meth) acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth) acrylate, n-octyl (meth) acrylate, isooctyl (meth) acrylate, n-nonyl (meth) acrylate, Isononyl (meth) acrylate, n-decyl (meth) acrylate, isodecyl (meth) acrylate, n-undecyl (meth) acrylate, n-dodecyl (meth) acrylate, n-tridecyl (meth) acrylate, n-tetradecyl (meth) Ak Rate and the like.

  Especially, when using for the surface protection film of this invention, hexyl (meth) acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth) acrylate, n-octyl (meth) acrylate, isooctyl (meth) acrylate, n-nonyl (meth). 6 carbon atoms such as acrylate, isononyl (meth) acrylate, n-decyl (meth) acrylate, isodecyl (meth) acrylate, n-dodecyl (meth) acrylate, n-tridecyl (meth) acrylate, n-tetradecyl (meth) acrylate (Meth) acrylates having ˜14 alkyl groups are preferred. By using (meth) acrylate having an alkyl group having 6 to 14 carbon atoms, it becomes easy to control the adhesive force to the adherend to be low, and the removability is excellent.

  The (meth) acrylate having an alkyl group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms may be used alone, or two or more kinds may be mixed and used, but the total content is (meth) acrylic. The content is preferably 50 to 100% by weight, more preferably 60 to 99% by weight, and particularly preferably 70 to 96% by weight, based on all monomer components of the polymer. If the (meth) acrylate is less than 50% by weight, good adhesive force and holding force required as pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets may not be obtained.

  Further, as another polymerizable monomer component, the glass transition temperature of the (meth) acrylic polymer is set so that the Tg is 0 ° C. or lower (usually −100 ° C. or higher) because the adhesive performance is easily balanced.

When the weight average molecular weight is smaller than 100,000, the adhesive force tends to be generated due to a decrease in the cohesive force of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition. On the other hand, when the weight average molecular weight exceeds 5,000,000, the fluidity of the polymer is lowered, the wetting to the polarizing plate becomes insufficient, and it tends to cause peeling.

In general, in order to obtain sufficient heat resistance by the cohesive strength of the acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive, it is preferably contained in an amount of 0.01 to 15 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the (meth) acrylic polymer. More preferably, it is contained in an amount of 5 to 10 parts by weight. When the content is less than 0.01 parts by weight, the crosslinking formation by the crosslinking agent becomes insufficient, the cohesive strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition becomes small, and sufficient heat resistance may not be obtained. There is a tendency to cause the rest. On the other hand, when the content exceeds 15 parts by weight, the cohesive force of the polymer is large, the fluidity is lowered, the wettability to the adherend is insufficient, and it tends to cause peeling.
