【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は耐候性、耐汚染性、透明性、及び柔軟性に優れ、かつ、プラスチック、ゴム、その他の基材との接着性の改良されたフッ素樹脂系積層フィルムに関す
【0002】
る。
【従来の技術】
近年、屋内外装用部材の表面保護フィルムとしてポリメタクリル酸エステル系フィルム、フッ素樹脂系フィルム等が各種塗料とともに使用されている。
【0003】
とりわけフッ素樹脂系フィルムは、その優れた耐候性等を生かして、壁紙やエレベーター、車両等の内装材のほか屋根材、壁材、雨どい、ガレージの屋根、サンルーム、農業用資材、テント用布、看板、標識、ラベル、窓ガラス用等、多岐にわたる用途に使用されている。
【0004】
また、このフッ素樹脂系フィルムの貼り合わせの対象基材は、ポリ塩化ビニル、ポリカーボネート、ポリメタクリル酸メチル、アクリロニトリル−ブタジエン−スチレン共重合体、FRP等のプラスチック基材のほかEPDM、CSMその他のゴム基材、アルミニウム箔、鋼板等の金属のほか合板、ガラス等と幅広い。
【0005】
そして、従来のフッ素樹脂系フィルムとしては、貼り合わせ用として、例えばポリフッ化ビニリデンとメタクリル酸メチルとの複合フィルムまたはそれらの混合比を異にする2種類のフィルムの複合フィルムが開発されてきた。(特開平5−50566号)
【0006】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかし、上記従来のフッ素樹脂系フィルムは、貼り合わせ基材によっては接着性に未だ不十分な場合があり、また軟質の貼り合わせの対象基材に用いた場合の柔軟性に劣るとともに、貼り合わせの対象基材の表面外観に悪影響を与えるという欠点を有していた。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は熱可塑性のフッ素樹脂を使用するとともに、接着剤層を工夫することにより、接着性、柔軟性を改良し、また透明性を確保すれば対象基材の表面外観に悪影響を与えにくい点に着目し、表面保護に適したフッ素樹脂系フィルムを提供せんとするものである。
【0008】
すなわち、表面層と接着剤層を有する積層フィルムにおいて、前記表面層が熱可塑性のフッ素樹脂を主成分とする樹脂組成物からなり、前記接着剤層がポリメチルメタクリレートの一部を少なくともアミノアルキル(メタ)アクリレートで置換したアクリル酸エステル共重合体を主成分とする樹脂組成物からなり、積層フィルムの0〜30℃における引張り弾性率が1.0×109 〜8.0×107 (Pa)であり、かつ光線透過率が80%以上であることを特徴とする積層フィルム、および、前記表面層がフッ化ビニリデン成分と他のフッ素樹脂成分との共重合体またはフッ素樹脂からなるブレンド体を主成分とし、該主成分中のフッ化ビニリデン成分が10〜50重量%以下である樹脂組成物からなることを特徴とする請求項1の積層フィルム、および、表面層の接着剤層と反対の面に剥離性の基材を積層したことを特徴とする請求項1の積層フィルム、および、剥離性の基材が延伸ポリエチレンテレフタレートフィルム、延伸ポリプロピレンフィルム、高密度ポリエチレンフィルムのうちから選ばれたことを特徴とする請求項1の積層フィルムに関する。
【0009】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下本発明を詳述する。
【0010】
本発明で使用する表面層は、熱可塑性のフッ素樹脂を主成分とする樹脂組成物からなるものであればよく、要するに、シート状に成形できるもの、すなわち、熱溶融成形可能なものであればよく、テトラフルオロエチレンの単独重合体以外のフッ素樹脂であれば特に制限なく使用することができる。
【0011】
また、前記表面層がフッ化ビニリデン成分と他のフッ素樹脂成分との共重合体またはフッ素樹脂からなるブレンド体を主成分とし、該主成分中のフッ化ビニリデン成分が10〜50重量%以下である樹脂組成物からなるものであれば、主成分中のフッ化ビニリデン成分が接着層とのなじみをよくするという利点があり、主成分中の量は好ましくは10〜50重量%とすることができる。この場合主成分中のフッ化ビニリデン成分が50重量%を越える場合には、接着性、透明性、柔軟性のバランスを確保するのが困難になり、一方、10重量%未満では接着性を改善する効果が顕著でない。
【0012】
本発明における、熱可塑性のフッ素樹脂としては、共重合体としてはモノマー成分としてフッ化ビニリデン、フッ化ビニル、トリフルオロエチレン、テトラフルオロエチレン、ペンタフルオロプロピレン、ヘキサフルオロプロピレン等の含フッ素系モノマー成分を含む共重合体、あるいは前記成分にエチレン、アルキルビニルエーテル等のビニルモノマーなどが共重合体全体の10モル%以下、併用された共重合体などがある。
【0013】
また、熱可塑性のフッ素樹脂からなるブレンド体としては、上記共重合体、あるいは上記成分の単独重合体を、2種類以上ブレンドしたものが使用できる。
【0014】
そして、具体的にはビニリデンフルオライド−テトラフルオロエチレン−ヘキサフルオロプロピレン共重合体、ビニリデンフルオライド−ヘキサフルオロプロピレン共重合体、テトラフルオロエチレン−パーフルオロアルキルビニルエーテル共重合体、テトラフルオロエチレン−エチレン共重合体、テトラフルオロエチレン−ヘキサフルオロプロピレン共重合体、あるいはこれらのブレンド体、さらには上記とポリビニリデンフルオライド、ポリビニルフルオライドなどとのブレンド体が挙げられる。
【0015】
主成分を構成する特に好ましい樹脂としては、フッ化ビニリデンを10〜50重量%含むビニリデンフルオライド−テトラフルオロエチレン−ヘキサフルオロプロピレン共重合体が挙げられる。この共重合体のフィルムは結晶性が低く透明性が良好で、柔軟性に優れ、しかも接着性にも優れるので最も好適である。
【0016】
樹脂組成物として、これら主成分を構成する樹脂のほかに顔料、充填剤、衝撃改良剤、紫外線吸収・遮蔽剤、加工助剤、架橋剤などの各種添加剤を積層フィルムの特性、特に透明性、柔軟性、接着層との接着性、ブレンド体の相溶性を損なわず、溶解度を超えてブリードアウト・プレートアウトを起こさない範囲で添加することができる。
【0017】
本発明において、接着剤層としては、ポリメチルメタクリレートの一部を少なくともアミノアルキル(メタ)アクリレートで置換したアクリル酸エステル共重合体を主成分とする樹脂組成物を使用する。
【0018】
この樹脂組成物は、ポリメチルメタクリレート成分自体が透明性を阻害しないとともに耐候性に優れており、アミノアルキル(メタ)アクリレートで置換したことにより接着性が向上し、長期間屋外に放置しても、接着性が低下したり着色したり、水分により接着性が低下したりしにくいものである。
【0019】
アミノアルキル(メタ)アクリレートとしては、(メタ)アクリル酸β−アミノエチル、(メタ)アクリル酸アミノメチル、(メタ)アクリル酸γ−アミノプロピル、(メタ)アクリル酸N−(β−アミノエチル)−γ−アミノプロピル、(メタ)アクリル酸N,N−ジメチルアミノエチル、(メタ)アクリル酸N,N−ジエチルアミノエチル、(メタ)アクリル酸t−ブチルアミノエチル、(メタ)アクリロイルオキシエチルイソシアヌレート、(メタ)アクリロイルモルホリン、N−(メタ)アクリロイルピロリドン、N−(メタ)アクリロイルカプロラクタム、(メタ)アクリル酸ポリ(アミノエチル)などが代表的に使用できる。
【0020】
アミノアルキル(メタ)アクリレートの含有量は主成分の0.1重量%〜30重量%以下が望ましい。0.1重量%未満であれば極性効果が損なわれるためか接着性が不十分となり、30重量%を越えると軟化温度が低くなるためか接着性が低下し粘着しやすくなってハンドリング性が悪化し、さらには着色(黄変)が生じたり、耐候性や耐水性が低下しやすい。
【0021】
その他適宜要求される性能に応じて、各種モノマーを共重合することも可能である。例えば、耐熱性が必要であれば(メタ)アクリル酸やヒドロキシエチル(メタ)アクリレート等を共重合し、さらに、ポリイソシアネートやメラミン等架橋剤を別に加えて硬化させたり、可塑性が必要であればアクリル酸エチルやアクリル酸ブチル等を共重合することも可能である。
【0022】
接着剤中には酸化防止剤、顔料、紫外線吸収剤等を接着性、透明性を損なわない範囲で添加することが可能である。
【0023】
本発明の表面層と接着剤層を有する積層フィルムは、積層フィルムの0〜30℃における引張り弾性率が1.0×109 〜8.0×107 (Pa)であり、光線透過率が80%以上であることが必要とされる。
【0024】
積層フィルムの引張り弾性率が1.0×109 (Pa)を越えると柔軟性が損なわれ、8.0×107 (Pa )未満では、柔らかすぎてハンドリング性が損なわれ好ましくない。また、光線透過率が80%未満では透明性が損なわれ、貼り合わせの対象基材の外観を損なうので好ましくない。これら引張り弾性率、光線透過率はいずれも表面層のモノマー組成、結晶性によりコントロールすることが可能である。
【0025】
さらにこの積層フィルムは、表面層の厚さが50μm以下で、接着剤層の厚さが5μm以下であることがより好ましい。表面層が50μmを超えると表面保護フィルムとして透明性が損なわれるほか、耐汚染性、耐候性などにおいて過剰品位となり経済性の点で問題となる。接着剤層の厚さが5μmを超えると同様に透明性、耐候性が損なわれるほか、接着性などにおいて過剰品位となり経済性の点で問題となる。
【0026】
また、表面層の厚さが50μm以下で、接着剤層の厚さが5μm以下の本発明の積層フィルムと、織布や不織布あるいはこれらに樹脂を含浸させたテント地とを、積層フィルムの接着剤層が接触する向きで貼り合わせてなるものは、極めて耐候性に優れ、柔軟性が損なわれない優れた複合テント地である。
【0027】
この場合の貼り合わせの対象であるテント地としては、ポリエステル不織布に塩ビを含浸させたテント地が、本発明の積層フィルムとの接着性に優れるので特に好ましい。
【0028】
なお、本発明の積層フィルムは屋内外装用部材の表面に加工されるが、その方法として、屋内外装用部材がシート・フィルム形態の場合には当業界でよく知られている加熱ロールラミネート法、熱プレス法などが適用でき、板形態の場合には熱プレス法などが適用できる。特に加熱ロールラミネート法の場合、積層フィルム側が柔軟であるため、しわ入りを防止する意味で予熱は屋内外装用部材側のみ行う等の工夫が有効である。
【0029】
表面層に接着剤層を形成して本発明の積層フィルムを製造するためには、上述の接着剤を有機溶剤中に溶解させ、表面層の表面に均等に塗布して、その後基材の軟化点、あるいは表面層中の架橋剤の硬化温度以下で加熱して乾燥させ、直接接着剤層を形成する方法や、接着剤溶液を剥離性の基材上に均一に塗布し乾燥させ、その後表面層との熱融着により転写して形成する方法等が可能である。
【0030】
表面層に接着剤層を形成するにあたっては、表面層と接着剤層との接着性を向上させるため、表面層の接着剤層側の表面をあらかじめコロナ放電処理、プラズマ放電処理、ナトリウム−アンモニア処理などの方法によりエッチングあるいは酸化することもできる。
【0031】
表面層に接着剤層を形成する際に、表面層が薄くてしわのはいるおそれがある場合には、剥離性の基材をあらかじめ表面層の背面に積層して腰を持たせ、接着剤層を形成した後、剥離性の基材を剥離させる方法もあり、表面層の形成の際に剥離性の基材を使用してコーティングすれば、それがそのまま剥離性の基材をあらかじめ表面層の背面に積層したものとして使用できる。
【0032】
さらには、剥離性の基材を積層フィルムを形成した後も剥がさずに残しておき、表面層の接着剤層と反対の面に剥離性の基材を積層したことを特徴とする本発明の積層フィルムが得られ、後に行う屋内外装用部材との貼り合わせの際にしわのはいるおそれがある場合に、前述同様に剥離性の基材で腰を持たせた効果により、外観よく保護フィルムとして貼り合わせが可能となる。
【0033】
この目的にかなう剥離性の基材としては貼り合わせの際の屋内外装用部材や積層フィルムの予熱に耐えうる耐熱性、機能上最終的には廃棄されることを考慮した経済性などから、剥離性の基材が延伸ポリエチレンテレフタレートフィルム、延伸ポリプロピレンフィルム、高密度ポリエチレンフィルムのうちから選ばれたことを特徴とする本発明の積層フィルムが得られ、さらにこれらの剥離性の基材に適宜充填剤を練り込んだり、シリコーン系離型剤等をコートしたりして離型性をコントロールすることが可能である。
【0034】
剥離性の基材の厚みとしては、9〜50μm程度が、腰を持たせる効果があり、しかも硬すぎないので貼り合わせ加工性に優れ、最も好適である。
【0035】
以下実施例により具体的に説明する。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a fluororesin-based laminated film having excellent weather resistance, stain resistance, transparency and flexibility, and improved adhesion to plastics, rubber and other substrates.
The
[Prior art]
In recent years, polymethacrylate-based films, fluororesin-based films and the like have been used together with various paints as surface protective films for indoor and exterior members.
[0003]
In particular, fluororesin-based films take advantage of their excellent weather resistance, etc., as well as interior materials such as wallpaper, elevators, and vehicles, as well as roofing materials, wall materials, gutters, garage roofs, solariums, agricultural materials, and tents. It is used for a wide variety of applications such as cloth, signboards, signs, labels, and window glass.
[0004]
In addition, the base material to which this fluororesin film is bonded is a plastic base material such as polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate, polymethyl methacrylate, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer, FRP, EPDM, CSM and other rubbers. Wide range of materials such as base material, aluminum foil, steel plate, plywood and glass.
[0005]
As a conventional fluororesin film, for example, a composite film of polyvinylidene fluoride and methyl methacrylate or a composite film of two kinds of films having different mixing ratios has been developed for bonding. (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-50566)
[0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the above-mentioned conventional fluororesin-based film may still be insufficient in adhesive properties depending on the bonded base material, and is inferior in flexibility when used as a target base material for soft bonding, This has the disadvantage of adversely affecting the surface appearance of the target substrate.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention uses a thermoplastic fluororesin and improves the adhesion and flexibility by devising the adhesive layer, and it is difficult to adversely affect the surface appearance of the target substrate if transparency is ensured. In particular, we will provide a fluororesin film suitable for surface protection.
[0008]
That is, in a laminated film having a surface layer and an adhesive layer, the surface layer is made of a resin composition containing a thermoplastic fluororesin as a main component, and the adhesive layer contains at least a part of polymethyl methacrylate with an aminoalkyl ( It consists of the resin composition which has as a main component the acrylic ester copolymer substituted by the (meth) acrylate, and the tensile elasticity modulus in 0-30 degreeC of a laminated | multilayer film is 1.0 * 10 < 9 > -8.0 * 10 < 7 > (Pa And a light transmittance of 80% or more, and a blend of the surface layer made of a copolymer of a vinylidene fluoride component and another fluororesin component or a fluororesin The laminate film according to claim 1, comprising a resin composition having a main component of 10% by weight or less and a vinylidene fluoride component in the main component of 10 to 50% by weight or less. And a peelable base material laminated on a surface of the surface layer opposite to the adhesive layer, and the peelable base material is a stretched polyethylene terephthalate film or a stretched polypropylene film. 2. The laminated film according to claim 1, wherein the laminated film is selected from high-density polyethylene films.
[0009]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is described in detail below.
[0010]
The surface layer used in the present invention only needs to be made of a resin composition containing a thermoplastic fluororesin as a main component. In short, it can be molded into a sheet shape, that is, can be hot-melt molded. Any fluororesin other than a tetrafluoroethylene homopolymer can be used without particular limitation.
[0011]
Further, the surface layer is mainly composed of a copolymer of a vinylidene fluoride component and another fluororesin component or a blend made of a fluororesin, and the vinylidene fluoride component in the main component is 10 to 50% by weight or less. If it consists of a certain resin composition, there is an advantage that the vinylidene fluoride component in the main component improves the compatibility with the adhesive layer, and the amount in the main component is preferably 10 to 50% by weight. it can. In this case, if the vinylidene fluoride component in the main component exceeds 50% by weight, it becomes difficult to ensure a balance between adhesiveness, transparency and flexibility, whereas if it is less than 10% by weight, the adhesiveness is improved. The effect to do is not remarkable.
[0012]
As the thermoplastic fluororesin in the present invention, as a copolymer, the monomer component is a fluorine-containing monomer component such as vinylidene fluoride, vinyl fluoride, trifluoroethylene, tetrafluoroethylene, pentafluoropropylene or hexafluoropropylene. Or a copolymer in which vinyl monomers such as ethylene and alkyl vinyl ether are used in combination with 10 mol% or less of the entire copolymer.
[0013]
Moreover, as a blend made of a thermoplastic fluororesin, a blend of two or more of the above copolymers or homopolymers of the above components can be used.
[0014]
Specifically, vinylidene fluoride-tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer, vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene copolymer, tetrafluoroethylene-perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether copolymer, tetrafluoroethylene-ethylene copolymer. Examples thereof include polymers, tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymers, blends thereof, and blends of the above with polyvinylidene fluoride, polyvinyl fluoride, and the like.
[0015]
A particularly preferable resin constituting the main component is a vinylidene fluoride-tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer containing 10 to 50% by weight of vinylidene fluoride. This copolymer film is most preferred because it has low crystallinity, good transparency, excellent flexibility, and excellent adhesion.
[0016]
As a resin composition, in addition to the resins constituting these main components, various additives such as pigments, fillers, impact modifiers, UV absorbers / screening agents, processing aids, crosslinking agents, etc., characteristics of laminated films, especially transparency , Flexibility, adhesion to the adhesive layer, and compatibility of the blend, and can be added within a range that does not cause bleed out and plate out beyond the solubility.
[0017]
In the present invention, as the adhesive layer, a resin composition containing, as a main component, an acrylic ester copolymer in which a part of polymethyl methacrylate is substituted with at least aminoalkyl (meth) acrylate is used.
[0018]
In this resin composition, the polymethyl methacrylate component itself does not impair transparency and is excellent in weather resistance. Adhesion is improved by substitution with aminoalkyl (meth) acrylate, and it can be left outdoors for a long time. , The adhesiveness is not easily lowered or colored, or the adhesiveness is not easily lowered by moisture.
[0019]
Examples of aminoalkyl (meth) acrylates include β-aminoethyl (meth) acrylate, aminomethyl (meth) acrylate, γ-aminopropyl (meth) acrylate, and N- (β-aminoethyl) (meth) acrylate. -Γ-aminopropyl, N, N-dimethylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate, N, N-diethylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate, t-butylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate, (meth) acryloyloxyethyl isocyanurate , (Meth) acryloylmorpholine, N- (meth) acryloylpyrrolidone, N- (meth) acryloylcaprolactam, poly (aminoethyl) acrylate (meth) and the like can be typically used.
[0020]
The content of aminoalkyl (meth) acrylate is desirably 0.1% by weight to 30% by weight of the main component. If it is less than 0.1% by weight, the polarity effect is impaired, or the adhesiveness is insufficient, and if it exceeds 30% by weight, the softening temperature is lowered, or the adhesiveness is lowered and it becomes easy to stick and handling properties deteriorate. In addition, coloration (yellowing) is likely to occur, and weather resistance and water resistance are likely to decrease.
[0021]
It is also possible to copolymerize various monomers according to other required performance. For example, if heat resistance is required, copolymerize (meth) acrylic acid, hydroxyethyl (meth) acrylate, etc., and further add a crosslinking agent such as polyisocyanate or melamine to cure, or if plasticity is required It is also possible to copolymerize ethyl acrylate or butyl acrylate.
[0022]
Antioxidants, pigments, ultraviolet absorbers and the like can be added to the adhesive as long as the adhesion and transparency are not impaired.
[0023]
The laminated film having the surface layer and the adhesive layer of the present invention has a tensile elastic modulus at 0 to 30 ° C. of 1.0 × 10 9 to 8.0 × 10 7 (Pa) and a light transmittance. It is required to be 80% or more.
[0024]
When the tensile elastic modulus of the laminated film exceeds 1.0 × 10 9 (Pa), the flexibility is impaired, and when it is less than 8.0 × 10 7 (Pa), the handling property is impaired because of being too soft. Further, if the light transmittance is less than 80%, the transparency is impaired, and the appearance of the target substrates to be bonded is impaired. These tensile modulus and light transmittance can both be controlled by the monomer composition and crystallinity of the surface layer.
[0025]
Further, the laminated film preferably has a surface layer thickness of 50 μm or less and an adhesive layer thickness of 5 μm or less. When the surface layer exceeds 50 μm, transparency as a surface protective film is impaired, and in addition, it becomes excessive in terms of contamination resistance, weather resistance, etc., which is a problem in terms of economy. When the thickness of the adhesive layer exceeds 5 μm, transparency and weather resistance are similarly impaired, and the adhesiveness is excessive, resulting in a problem in terms of economy.
[0026]
In addition, the laminated film of the present invention having a surface layer thickness of 50 μm or less and an adhesive layer thickness of 5 μm or less and a woven fabric, a nonwoven fabric, or a tent ground impregnated with a resin are bonded to the laminated film. What is bonded in the direction in which the agent layer is in contact is an excellent composite tent that is extremely excellent in weather resistance and does not lose flexibility.
[0027]
As a tent place which is the object of bonding in this case, a tent place obtained by impregnating a polyester non-woven fabric with vinyl chloride is particularly preferable because of excellent adhesiveness with the laminated film of the present invention.
[0028]
The laminated film of the present invention is processed on the surface of the indoor / outdoor member. As the method, when the indoor / outdoor member is in the form of a sheet / film, a heating roll laminating method well known in the art, A hot press method or the like can be applied, and in the case of a plate form, a hot press method or the like can be applied. Particularly in the case of the heating roll laminating method, since the laminated film side is flexible, it is effective to perform preheating only on the indoor / outdoor member side in order to prevent wrinkling.
[0029]
In order to produce the laminated film of the present invention by forming an adhesive layer on the surface layer, the above-mentioned adhesive is dissolved in an organic solvent, applied evenly to the surface of the surface layer, and then the substrate is softened Or a method of directly forming an adhesive layer by heating at a temperature equal to or lower than the curing temperature of the crosslinking agent in the surface layer, or a method in which the adhesive solution is uniformly applied on a peelable substrate and dried, and then the surface A method of transferring and forming by heat fusion with a layer is possible.
[0030]
In forming the adhesive layer on the surface layer, in order to improve the adhesion between the surface layer and the adhesive layer, the surface of the surface layer on the side of the adhesive layer is previously subjected to corona discharge treatment, plasma discharge treatment, sodium-ammonia treatment. Etching or oxidation can also be performed by such a method.
[0031]
When forming the adhesive layer on the surface layer, if the surface layer is thin and may wrinkle, a peelable base material is laminated on the back of the surface layer in advance to give it a waist. After forming the layer, there is also a method of peeling the peelable substrate. When the surface layer is formed by coating using the peelable substrate, the peelable substrate is directly applied to the surface layer. It can be used as a laminate on the back side.
[0032]
Furthermore, the peelable substrate is left without being peeled after the laminated film is formed, and the peelable substrate is laminated on the surface of the surface layer opposite to the adhesive layer. When a laminated film is obtained and there is a possibility that wrinkles will occur at the time of pasting with an interior / exterior member to be performed later, the protective film has a good appearance due to the effect of having a waist with a peelable substrate as described above. Can be pasted together.
[0033]
Peelable base material for this purpose is peelable due to the heat resistance that can withstand the preheating of indoor and exterior members and laminated films during bonding, and economical efficiency that ultimately results in disposal. The laminated film of the present invention is characterized in that the releasable substrate is selected from a stretched polyethylene terephthalate film, a stretched polypropylene film, and a high-density polyethylene film, and further a filler is suitably added to these releasable substrates. It is possible to control the releasability by kneading or coating a silicone release agent or the like.
[0034]
As the thickness of the peelable substrate, about 9 to 50 μm has the effect of giving a waist, and is not too hard, so it is excellent in bonding workability and is most preferable.
[0035]
Examples will be described in detail below.
