Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2012-17399 JP-A-2015-157964 JP-A-2016-74899

As the base material of the surface protective film, a polyester-based base material may be adopted because it is excellent in various properties such as heat resistance, transparency, and dimensional stability. For example, PET film, which is a light-transmitting polyester-based base material for surface protection films for optical parts, is extruded into a film by the T-die method in the manufacturing process, and then the flow direction in the film. Alternatively, it is known that a biaxial stretching process including stretching in the mechanical direction (MD) and stretching in the width direction (TD) is often performed.

Further, the surface protective film may be required to have good hand-cutting property from the viewpoint of work efficiency and the like.

The present invention has been conceived under the above circumstances, and is a surface suitable for achieving both good hand-cutting property and high reworkability while having a polyester-based base material. The purpose is to provide a protective film.

The surface protective film provided by the present invention has a laminated structure including a transparent base material and an adhesive layer. The transparent base material is a uniaxially stretched polyester-based base material in the width direction of the base material and has a thickness of 75 μm or more. The polyester-based base material refers to a base material such as a film or a sheet containing the polyester-based resin in the largest weight ratio in the constituent material. The uniaxially stretched polyester-based base material in the width direction of the base material is a width direction (MD) orthogonal to, for example, the flow direction or the mechanical direction (MD) of the extruded film-like body after extrusion molding of the raw material resin material in the manufacturing process of the polyester-based base material. It refers to a polyester-based base material that has undergone uniaxial stretching treatment to TD). The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer contains, for example, at least one selected from the group consisting of an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive, a urethane-based pressure-sensitive adhesive, a silicone-based pressure-sensitive adhesive, and a rubber-based pressure-sensitive adhesive. In this surface protective film, the Elmendorf tear strength in the substrate width direction is 0.5 N or less, and the Elmendorf tear strength in the substrate machine direction is 1 N or more.

As described above, the transparent base material of the surface protective film is a polyester-based base material. Such a configuration is suitable for enjoying various properties that are easily exhibited in a polyester-based substrate, such as heat resistance, transparency, and dimensional stability, in the surface protective film substrate and thus in the present surface protective film.

Further, as described above, the transparent base material of the surface protective film is a uniaxially stretched polyester-based base material having a thickness of 75 μm or more in the width direction. The tear strength such as the Elmendorf tear strength in the surface protective film is strongly controlled by the mechanical properties of the base material. In this configuration, the Elmendorf tear strength in the width direction of the base material is 0.5 N or less in this surface protective film. It is suitable for realizing the above-mentioned configuration in which the Elmendorf tear strength in the direction of the base material machine is 1 N or more.

In addition, as described above, the surface protective film has an Elmendorf tear strength in the substrate width direction of 0.5 N or less and an Elmendorf tear strength in the substrate machine direction of 1 N or more. Such a configuration is suitable for realizing good hand-cutting property in the substrate width direction in which the Elmendorf tear strength is 0.5 N or less, which is relatively significantly low, in the present surface protective film. At the same time, the configuration in which the Elmendorf tear strength is 1N or more, which is more than twice the base material width direction in the base material mechanical direction, is used to enhance the directivity of the surface protective film for tearing in the base material width direction. Suitable. Therefore, this configuration is appropriate without tearing the film from the adherend by applying a peeling force in the direction of the base material machine of the film when the surface protective film is attached to the adherend. It is suitable for peeling off. Specifically, in the work (rework work) in which the surface protective film is attached to the adherend, then peeled off and then reattached, a peeling force is applied in the direction of the base material machine of the film to adhere. It is suitable for appropriately peeling the film from the body without tearing it. The surface protective film, which is easily torn not only in the width direction of the base material but also in the mechanical direction of the base material, tends to be easily torn at the time of peeling in the rework work, and it tends to be difficult to properly peel off from the adherend. The torn surface protective film cannot be used for re-bonding. On the other hand, this surface protective film has a base material mechanical direction Elmendorf tear strength that is sufficiently larger than the base material width direction Elmendorf tear strength suitable for realizing good hand-cutting property in the base material width direction. In the rework work, it is suitable for properly peeling from the adherend without tearing.

As described above, this surface protective film is suitable for achieving both good hand-cutting property and high reworkability while having a polyester-based base material.

Preferably, the thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is 5 μm or more. Such a configuration is suitable for realizing sufficient adhesive force to the adherend in the surface protective film.

Preferably, the haze in the thickness direction of the surface protective film is 3% or less. Such a configuration is suitable for, for example, a surface protective film for optical component applications.

The oligomer can be obtained by polymerizing a raw material monomer component having a predetermined composition. Examples of the polymerization method include solution polymerization, emulsion polymerization, and bulk polymerization. Examples of the solvent for solution polymerization include those described above as a solvent that can be used for solution polymerization for obtaining an acrylic polymer. In the solution polymerization, one kind of solvent may be used, or two or more kinds of solvents may be used. In addition, a polymerization initiator can be used when polymerizing the raw material monomer component in order to obtain the above-mentioned oligomer. Examples of the polymerization initiator include the above-mentioned photopolymerization initiator and thermal polymerization initiator as the polymerization initiator that can be used for polymerization for obtaining an acrylic polymer.

For example, the base material 11 of the surface protective film X manufactured as described above is a polyester-based base material as described above. Such a configuration is suitable for enjoying various properties that are easily exhibited in the polyester-based base material, such as heat resistance, transparency, and dimensional stability, in the surface protection film base material and thus in the surface protection film X.

Further, the base material 11 contained in the surface protective film X is a uniaxially stretched polyester-based base material in the width direction as described above. As described above, the thickness of the base material 11 is 75 μm or more, preferably 80 μm or more. As described above, the thickness of the base material 11 is, for example, 150 μm or less, preferably 125 μm or less. The tear strength such as the Elmendorf tear strength in the surface protective film is strongly controlled by the mechanical properties of the base material. In these configurations, the Elmendorf tear strength in the width direction of the base material is 0.5 N or less in the surface protection film X. It is suitable for realizing the above-mentioned configuration in which the Elmendorf tear strength in the direction of the base material machine is 1 N or more.

In addition, the Elmendorf tear strength of the surface protective film X in the width direction of the base material is 0.5 N or less, preferably 0.45 N or less, more preferably 0.4 N or less, and more preferably 0.4 N or less, as described above. It is 3N or less. At the same time, the Elmendorf tear strength of the surface protective film X in the mechanical direction of the base material is 1N or more, preferably 1.1N or more, more preferably 1.3N or more, and more preferably 1.5N or more, as described above. Is. These configurations are suitable for realizing good hand-cutting property in the substrate width direction in which the Elmendorf tear strength is 0.5 N or less, which is relatively significantly low, in the surface protective film X. The configuration in which the Ermendorf tear strength is twice or more in the base material machine direction in the base material width direction is suitable for enhancing the directivity of the surface protective film X with respect to tearing in the base material width direction. Therefore, in this configuration, when the surface protective film X is attached to the adherend, a peeling force is applied to the surface protective film X in the direction of the base material machine to apply the peeling force from the adherend to the surface protective film X. It is suitable for properly peeling without tearing. Specifically, in the work of attaching the surface protective film X to the adherend, then peeling it off and then reattaching it (rework work), a peeling force is applied to the surface protective film X in the direction of the base material machine. It is suitable for appropriately peeling the surface protective film X from the adherend without tearing it. The surface protective film, which is easily torn not only in the width direction of the base material but also in the mechanical direction of the base material, tends to be easily torn at the time of peeling in the rework work, and it tends to be difficult to properly peel off from the adherend. The torn surface protective film cannot be used for re-bonding. On the other hand, the surface protective film X has a base material mechanical direction Elmendorf tear strength that is sufficiently larger than the base material width direction Elmendorf tear strength suitable for realizing good hand-cutting property in the base material width direction. In the rework work, it is suitable for properly peeling from the adherend without tearing.

As described above, the surface protective film X is suitable for achieving both good hand-cutting property and high reworkability while having a polyester-based base material.

As described above, the in-plane retardation of the base material 11 of the surface protective film X is preferably 1500 nm or more, more preferably 3000 nm or more, and more preferably 6000 nm or more. Such a configuration is such that when the surface protective film X is attached to the surface of the transparent cover, which is the frontmost component of the display screen of the liquid crystal display device, the display is made through a lens with a polarization function such as polarized sunglasses. It is suitable for suppressing the occurrence of the so-called blackout phenomenon when the screen is visually recognized. Further, the larger the in-plane phase difference of the base material 11, the more the polarization function of polarized sunglasses, for example, when the surface protective film X is attached to the surface of the transparent cover, which is the frontmost component of the display screen of the liquid crystal display device. The so-called rainbow unevenness phenomenon tends to be suppressed when the display screen is visually recognized through the attached lens.
